FIRE
Private Fire Pit
Each cabin has its own fire pit for evenings beneath lights glowing through the trees.
Looking for a romantic getaway in Nacogdoches? Sparks Lake Resort offers private cabins beside Sparks Lake with fire pits, BBQ areas, quiet evenings and an East Texas setting made for time together.
A romantic getaway in Nacogdoches does not need reservations for every hour of the day. Sometimes the best weekends begin when there is nowhere else you need to be.
Make coffee at the cabin, spend a slow morning outside, head toward the lake and decide what comes next only when you feel like it. A romantic getaway in Nacogdoches can be as simple as that.
Nacogdoches and SFA are nearby when you want to explore, but the best part may be coming back to Sparks Lake when the day winds down.
You do not have to leave the Resort to find something memorable to do together.
Each cabin has its own fire pit for evenings beneath lights glowing through the trees.
Each cabin has its own BBQ area so dinner can stay relaxed and part of the evening.
Reserve a kayak or paddle boat and enjoy Sparks Lake together at your own pace.
Watch for deer, eagles and other East Texas wildlife moving through the property.
Walk down to the dock where your reserved kayak or paddle boat can be waiting for you. Head onto Sparks Lake, fish together, drift awhile or simply sit near the water and watch the lake move around you.
You may see fish breaking the surface, deer moving through the property, eagles overhead and the changing East Texas landscape reflected across the water.
During the day, the Sparks Lake fountain creates a centerpiece across the water while guests fish, paddle and enjoy the lake.
As evening arrives, the lake takes on a completely different feel. The fountain lights up after dark, including displays in the purple and white colors of Stephen F. Austin State University.
Add the lights in the trees, the glow of your cabin's fire pit and the water reflecting everything back, and there is very little reason to rush back into town.
All four cabins place you inside the Sparks Lake experience. Choose the layout and style that fit the kind of romantic getaway in Nacogdoches you want.
