About This Property

Welcome to The Magnolia BE-Hive, a beautifully restored historic gem in the heart of Durant. Whether you’re here to win big at Choctaw Casino (only 3 miles away), visiting family at Southeastern Oklahoma State University, or looking for a professional "home base" for your team, our hive is designed for comfort and connection.

As experienced hosts, we’ve curated a space that blends the soul of a 1920s home with modern luxuries. You’ll love the sun-drenched rooms, our signature plant wall for group photos, and a backyard designed for long Oklahoma evenings under the string lights.

THE SPACE
Our home is optimized for both relaxation and productivity:

Sleeping Arrangements: A King Master suite, a cozy second bedroom with memory foam mattresses, and a massive 500 sq. ft. loft that serves as a third sleeping area/second living room.

Chef’s Kitchen: Fully equipped with a 5-burner gas stove, air fryer, and a "Dual Coffee Station" (Drip + Keurig).

Outdoor Living: Fully fenced backyard with a fire pit, BBQ grill, and games.

Business Ready: Ultra-high-speed Wi-Fi, a dedicated workspace, and a long driveway for multiple vehicles.

ROOMS & AMENITIES:

Master Suite: A sanctuary featuring a hybrid King bed and an en-suite bathroom with exceptional water pressure—perfect for winding down after a day at the lake or the casino. Includes a 43" Smart Roku TV and walk-in closet.

Second Bedroom: Perfect for small families or colleagues. Features a memory foam Full bed and a trundle with two Twin memory foam mattresses. A 24" Smart Roku TV and a second full bathroom are located right next door.

Upstairs Loft (3rd Sleeping Area): Our most versatile space! Nearly 500 sq. ft. of room to spread out. It’s a favorite for kids and teams alike, featuring a 55" Smart Fire TV, a library of board games, and a loveseat that converts to a twin bed. Note: We provide extra fans to keep this sunny space comfortable year-round.

Outdoor Oasis: Step into your private retreat. The fenced backyard features bistro string lights, a patio dining set, and a fire pit. It’s the perfect spot to relax after visiting Lake Texoma or exploring downtown Durant.

Great stay!

It is a 2 bedroom with a loft (not a 3 BR) but was very accommodating and the hosts were communicative and extremely understanding of concerns! The house is simply adorable Very quaint neighborhood and conveniently close to choctaw, making it very pleasant to stay off properly without breaking the bank! Checking in and out was a breeze! Would glaldly rebook in the event they are available our next trip!
