Great Hidden Gem

We were in the area for our Dad's 75th Birthday Party Celebration. It was a treat staying close to family and having our own secluded and peaceful space! The house was well furnished and met all our needs. We will stay again and find time to enjoy the back porch/outdoor area!

Nice place in nature

Plenty of indoor space, great outdoor space as well. We didn’t get a chance to enjoy the firepit and outdoors but looked great! Cleanish, though we have pretty high standards.

Good place to stay.

Our stay was very nice, it is in a very quiet wooded area. The only 2 problems we had were there were no curtins or blinds on the living room windows and it didn't get cleaned real well before we arrived. We do recommend it to anyone.

Good, but…

3rd bed proved to be a subpar rollaway that ended up a mattress on the floor. Motion alarm on front of house a nuisance that we were unable to disable. Otherwise, a nice remote getaway!

This property is relaxing and the perfect escape from the city! Dining is 15-20 minutes away, but once you get to the house, there is solitude!

Getaway

Property is off the highway enough to be peaceful, but 30 minutes or less to anything you need. Loved the Texas decor-longhorn horns, cowhide. Plenty to watch on tv, grounds are nice. Didn't use the fire pit-June just isn't the right season. Washer/dryer were great for our two week stay. Wayne was attentive and often there taking care of the grounds. Took advantage of the dinosaur park and the state park as well as an indoor play park with our grandchildren. Pricing puts this place at a bargain.

Far From the Madding Crowd

This home has a real cabin in the woods feel. Rustic, but with modern touches. It could have been warmer overnight into the morning, but overall very cozy. The bed that we used was comfortable, water in the shower was instantly hot with good pressure, and the kitchen functed well. It was a delight to roam around the property, and though it was cloudy for most of our stay, we were able to see a spectacular view of the night sky without any light pollution. Wayne was a gracious host and accommodated all our needs.
