Morgan Ski Chalet | Cozy cottage with rooftop deck, fire pit, hot tub & community boat dock and cove

3 Bedroom Ski Chalet in Morgan

Unplug. Unwind. Reconnect.
Welcome to Ola Mae’s Cottage—your serene escape perched in The Canyons on breathtaking Lake Whitney, right at the edge of the Texas Hill Country. Just over an hour from DFW and 30 minutes from Waco, our peaceful retreat blends natural charm with all the comforts of home.
Tucked under a canopy of trees and just minutes from Walling Bend—Lake Whitney’s only cliff-diving access—this cozy cottage is perfect for slow mornings, lakeside afternoons, and starry night conversations around the fire.
Inside, the cottage wraps you in warmth with rustic decor, historic wood floors (salvaged from the original Burleson Stop on the Fort Worth Railroad), and a light-filled open layout. Whether you’re curled up with a good book, cooking a family meal in the fully stocked kitchen, or playing a late-night board game in the sunroom, this space invites connection and calm.
🛏 Sleep easy:
Two private bedrooms and a bonus sunroom offer flexible sleeping arrangements for couples, families, or friend groups.
☕ Your favorite spot? The rooftop deck.
Sip your morning coffee while the mist rises off the lake, or toast the sunset as deer wander past. At night, bring a blanket and stargaze Texas-style—no city lights, just a sky full of wonder.
🔥 Outside, the magic continues:
• Soak in the hot tub under the stars.
• Grill out while the kids chase fireflies.
• End the night around the fire pit, swapping stories and roasting s’mores.
• Spend your days fishing, kayaking, or swimming in our private community cove and dock—no crowded beaches, just you and the water.
🧭 Looking to explore?
You’re minutes from:

📚 Trending now? Slow travel. Digital detox. Memory-making.
This isn’t just a place to stay—it’s a place to pause. Grab that book you’ve been meaning to read, reconnect over dinner without phones, and breathe deep in a space that was designed for intentional rest.
Whether you’re cliff-jumping with adrenaline junkies or curled up by the fire with your people, Ola Mae’s Cottage is your home base for whatever kind of adventure (or lack thereof) you need.
Book your stay and discover why Lake Whitney is still one of Texas’ best kept secrets.
