Ore City, TX Offered for sale at $1,650,000

Welcome to Old Camp Joy with approximately 4.75 lakefront acres located on beautiful Lake of the Pines. Originally constructed in 1958, this unique property was rebuilt with three all new, quality construction cottages in 2015 and the main house was constructed in 2021 and is now an established five-star resort with an ever growing faithful customer base. Old Camp Joy offers a multitude of accommodations, including a 1,700 square foot multi-use event hall that will seat 80 guests, a commercial grade kitchen, men's/women's bathrooms, a mother's room and a stately deck overlooking approximately 1,200 feet of water frontage.
Step into the main house and you’ll see that it has stunning panoramic views of the inlets and open water and tons of natural light from the vast windows at every turn. The hilltop, lakefront house offers a large living area with amazing views, nice sized kitchen with quartz countertops, 2 bedrooms, 1-½ baths, a tornado shelter that meets FEMA requirements, a room upstairs that could be converted into a third bedroom and a central vac system.
