Guest Reviews
- Roger (10/5): - The cleanest of the room . The people were awfully kind and the easy way to pay
- Verified traveler (10/5): - friendly service, clean room, great location to the lake
- Rob (8/5): - bed mattress is wrapped in plastic.... hot and uncomfortable. other than that the room was good.
- Gail (8/5): - The beds are too hard. The beds are too hard. The beds are too hard. The beds are too hard.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - It was a place to sleep nothing special .restaurant closed way to early seeing how their wasn't anyplace else close to get dinner
- Jonathan (10/5): - I have stayed here twice and both times the rooms have been very clean and the staff have been friendly and helpful.
The property sits right on the edge of Lake Fork in Texas and has a boat ramp and bait shop right on the premises.
- Teresa (8/5): - Friendly and helpful people. Right on the lake
- Verified traveler (2/5): Terrible desk clerk - Never got checked in. I told the rude employee my name and she barked she didn’t have anything for my last name. Thinking it was a schedule mistake I left. Then she called later to ask if I was checking in. The room somehow got booked in my first name. Had she tried to assist me, maybe we could have figured it out
- Shannon (6/5): On the water - It was good for the $. Has on the water gas. Nice and quiet when we stayed.
- Greg (4/5): - Check-in was smooth and easy. Beds were awful and had some sort of plastic on them...rock hard. TV was LCD but a too small and the remote was tethered to the end-table, indicating that their normal patronage are thieves. Only stayed two nights and the maids forgot to give us towels the 2nd day. I'm not that picky but can't recommend this place.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great location and comfortable stay - The room was clean and comfortable . Not a four star hotel but that’s not why you go to lake Fork. It’s right by the water with two boat ramps very close. The breakfast in the store was good and they have everything you need. For me it was a great place to stay at a good rate. I would recommend it to anyone looking to get away and fish.
- Brian (6/5): Spring Fishing Trip - The information said the beds were queen size but they were actually full size beds. Which was a problem for my brother and I to share. The parking situation was horrible. There is not enough parking spots and power outlets to park a truck and boat.
- T.S. (6/5): Fishing Lake Fork - Rooms are convenient. Right on the lake. Clean but not comfortable.
- Gertie (6/5): Just plain - The first morning, I was awoken at 7:30 with loud knocking at my door. I had to get up and answer the door. The person on the other side of the door said they would come back. They never did, even though I put the maid service sign on the door. They never came for 3 days. This is just a plain Jane motel with no frills. Perfect for fishermen, but not for a female.
- Terri (10/5): - Very courteous service. Rooms very clean. Would stay there again without a doubt.
- April (4/5): Nice people! - The people here are SO nice but unfortunately the accommodations are terrible. The beds are hard as a rock, and I like a firm mattress. I tossed and turned all night, probably keeping my son awake in the next bed, since the mattresses are covered in plastic and they protest, loudly, with every move. No lamp in the room, so it's either be blinded by the ceiling fan light with no cover and two bare bulbs, or sit in the dark. We sat in the dark. The only good thing I can mention is the shower pressure was great for a motel, but dodging the moldy shower curtain was not.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Clean Comfortable and Friendly - This was the first time we stayed at the Minnow Bucket. It is an older facility, but is extremely clean and the beds were so comfortable. It is located right on Lake Fork so its great for anglers. It appears that the property is in the process of updates. Our room was one of the older rooms. We were extremely pleased with the room. If you are accustomed to staying at the Hilton, this is not the place for you. On the other hand, if you want to stay at a clean place with comfortable beds, reasonable prices, incredibly helpful employees, Wifi, and satellite tv, this is the place to go. We will definitely stay there again. Loved the onsite restaurant/convenience store with reasonable prices.
Keep up the good work at the Minnow Bucket and don't lose that country hospitality!
- Brian (10/5): Father, son fishing trip - Always a pleasurable stay at the Minnow Bucket. Staff is very helpful and knowledgeable about Lake Fork
