Great out of the way pool house
We loved the secluded house with the private pool. The only negatives were some wasps by the pool and we couldn’t get the YouTubeTV to log in with the information provided. It was a great time away with family. We will be back!

Great place to stay to experience Texas for the first time.
We had a wonderful action packed stay in Texas. Great location for a country experience but close enough to town for dining and shopping. We would come back again for sure.

The perfect country getaway
My husband, 5 year old twin boys and I had a wonderful stay here for Spring Break! We were looking for a place in the county to get away and this house was perfect. There was a small family of rabbits living in the nearby woods and we would watch for them every morning and evening. The house was very clean and fully stocked with board games. Unfortunately it was a little too cold for us to enjoy the swimming pool, but we did spend a few afternoons with our feet in the water. The house was also very close to the Aggieland Safari Zoo, which I would highly recommend!

A hidden little gem
This property was exactly what we needed, a hidden little gem. Home is warm and inviting, as soon as you walk in you feel at home. The pool was great! We had some shattered rain showers but we still were able to enjoy the pool and while it was raining we played board games that were supplied by the owners. The owners of this property have thought of everything you could possibly need. We will definitely go back.

Relaxing & Socially Distant
We really enjoyed the farmhouse retreat. It was just far enough, but close to various commodities. We spent most of our time in the pool. So much so, that we never made it to the Aggieland Safari zoo. Kids loved that it had WiFi and Netflix.

Hurri-cation
We had to evacuate our home for hurricane Laura. After deciding on where to go, I found this gem! Off the beaten path, plenty of room inside and out and a pool! Close enough to town to make grocery runs. Great communication with the property manager! Thanks for your help, Sheri!
