St. Joseph Cabin | The Oxbow Lodge of Lake Bruin

5 Bedroom Cabin in St. Joseph, St Joseph

VACATION! RETREAT! REUNION! PARTY! WEDDING! RECEPTION!
The ULTIMATE Lake House! The Oxbow boasts 5 bedrooms/ 4 baths + a huge sleeping porch. The house sleeps up to 26 guests with extra space for blow up mattresses.
The upstairs living area is an enormous 1200 square feet and opens to a 575 square foot covered balcony with fans. The balcony is 48 feet wide. The Oxbow is an entertainment heaven for family, friends, weddings, business meetings, etc.
This property is very charming and unique....all the walls are either pine or white-washed brick and all the ceilings and counters (kitchen & baths) are aged tin. Antique collections abound.
The new 500 sq ft addition holds a monstrous bathroom/ dressing room with 3 sinks and a huge shower "room" (5x7). The bath is designed like a cabana in that it has a door to the outside so the kids can enter without having to go through the house. The addition also holds a 2nd full-size laundry room. There are 2 bedrooms on the upper level. One has a king bed and the other has a queen bed.
The downstairs has another large den that has a sleeper sofa and a daybed, 2 bedrooms, one that has a king size bed, one that has a queen size bed plus a day bed, the nook bedroom that has a queen size bed, 2 baths and a 600 sq ft screened sleeping porch. We are excited to announce that the sleeping porch now has AC and heating so that all our guests will be able to rest comfortably whether inside the lodge or on the porch. The porch has bunk beds and day beds that will accommodate 8 guests. We do have one queen blow up mattress available to use.
The lake side of the house is all glass upstairs AND downstairs....the views and sunsets are AWESOME! The top floor has a vaulted ceiling that brings the sunset inside. From the upstairs den, you step out to a 48' wide deck.
There is a handicap ramp leading into the lodge and one of the bathrooms upstairs has a walk in shower that has a shower chair.
The dock covers 2700 sq. ft of space and has one boat slip with lift. A huge swim dock (32x16) has been added. The new swim dock has built-in benches for enjoying the sunset and watching the kids. The dock swing is a favorite perch for watching those gorgeous sunsets.
Fishing off the dock is a favorite of many of our guests.
There's plenty of room inside and out and the property is very private. We do have outside surveillance cameras located for security purposes. One is located outside the carport showing the driveway as guests come in. The second one is located in a tree viewing the walkway on the side of the house where guests enter the property.
The house is very well equipped...plenty of linens, pots & pans. Small appliances include 2 coffee pots, one regular and one Keurig. Other appliances include a mixer, a toaster, Ninja blender, air fryer and crockpots. We have 2 outdoor grills. One is charcoal and one is gas.
Across the street is the Lake Bruin Country club where tennis and golf are offered with a fee being paid by guest. Lake Bruin state park is just a few miles away. It offers walking areas, a splash pad, a swimming area and a boat launch. There is a small entry fee to get into the park.
The Oxbow was featured in BAYOU LIFE MAGAZINE in July 2015. If you would like to see more pictures and the article, google:

Summary: It's not easy to find a place that can host a family our size and feel like everyone has their space yet can be social together. We could not have been happier with our experience!
