About this property
Couples getaway in small town Waxahachie, Texas on10 acres of fields and forest.
Have you ever stayed in a Grain Silo? This silo house is a one of a kind unique getaway just 30 miles south of DFW. On 10 gorgeous acres of fields and forest. With a gated entry and all the privacy and peacefulness for a great stay. Enjoy breathtaking sunrises with a cup of coffee on the bedroom balcony. Start a fire and take in some of the most beautiful sunsets. Then lay back on the Lounge chair and wonder at a 360 veiw of the stars. No city lights. You may be in the country but with this silo you will have plenty of luxury. Melt away the city in our two person Steam sauna shower equipped with Radio and color changing lights. You set the mood. 60' UHD Samsung TV with Theatre sound and BlueRay player and Firestick. LP player with LPs in the bedroom, great little place to dance. Have a picnic by the seasonal pond in the back (no fish or swimming ). Take a stroll in the BigFoot Forest or lay back take a snooze or watch the wild life. Follow us on Facebook @ The Silo House. There is a security camera for out side protection.

About the host
Hosted by Cathy Tamminga
Howdy, Im Lykele Tamminga but you can call me Lee and Cathy and our fur child, Fia. I am from a small northern farm town in Holland and moved to Waxahachie in 1984. I grow up on a dairy farm in Holland and Waxahachie. Cathy is from Hickory NC and moved to Texas in 1979. We were Jr.High sweethearts for 2 years then we went our separate ways. 25 years later we end up back together. We both grow up here... literally just across the fields. I am a grain harvester and Cathy is a homesteader. Starting greenhouses and chicken coops this year. We wanted to share our unique Silo House with others while we are gone for harvest.
Why they chose this property
After the family dairy stopped milking I decided to recycle the grain silo... into our house. I had 15 acres to put it on, so I welding two trailers together and hooked up to the tractor and away we went. I did all the welding and fabrication and had a local builder help with the framing and interior. I studied the sunrises and sunsets so that you could see both views from inside. It truly is peaceful and quiet out here. You can truly feel like you are the only people on Earth.
What makes this property unique
Some of the most beautiful sunrise and sunsets...Weather sitting on the porch or the balcony. There is always a breeze at The Silo House which is great for the Hammock in The BIg Foot Forest. Plus you get to stay in a round house that once feed thousands of Dairy Cows... Pretty Cool. And check out our little/big town of Waxahachie. So much to do and see here for all walks of life.
