This was a terrific property! The house was great and the property was very peaceful and fun. The house offered so much entertainment (games, pool table, dart board, etc.), we wish we had stayed longer. In addition, it had a wonderful heated pool with waterfall and a separate hot tub. To make things even better, the owner was quick to respond to any messages. We really enjoyed our stay and we would highly recommend it!

We spent most of our time in the pool & hot tub. The kitchen had everything we needed. This is our third stay at the retreat. The darn drought caused the pond to be dry but I'm sure it will come back when Texas gets some rain.

Summer Getaway

The stay was absolutely wonderful. The pool was an oasis in the Texas mid-July heat. The rest of the amenities were a plus, and there are many. If it's watching TV at the outside bar or viewing a great move during the night while you cool off floating in the pool, this place has everything. The host is spectacular.

Great house, great stay!

The house was great! Much larger than what we were expecting…plenty of room for our party of 8. The house had plenty of amenities & activities inside and out. We liked how it was also quiet and peaceful.
