A working cattle ranch, the Gaines Bend community sits along the eastern shores of Possum Kingdom Lake and is home to both lake cabins and luxury estates.
The dramatic cliff line offers stunning views of Hell's Gate and PK's youth camps on the opposite shoreline, while other parts of the Gaines Bend community have large, gentle sloping lake lots. Gaines Bend is one of the most desirable lake communities with its "something for everyone" style.
Gaines Bend is abundant with wildlife - deer, raccoon, rabbits, birds and yes - an occasional skunk, all make you appreciate your time out in the country whether in your modest cabin or lavish lake home. One Gaines Bend resident recently witnessed the birth of twin deer as she sat nearby on her front patio. The cattle grazing in the pastures located throughout the community is a pleasant surprise when you round a bend driving toward your lake home.
Boat docks are permitted in this lake community, and both deeded and leasehold property is available.
