Hard to put into words how much I loved our barn stay. I was very skeptical, but put my faith in my 9 year old who chose to sleep in a barn.
Turns out, I loved everything about it- the living space was warm and inviting, beds super comfy, the views spectacular, the animals amazing, the host wonderful and so helpful. Can't say enough good things and will look for any excuse to return. Thank you, Greg, for sharing your slice of Texas with this indoorsy girl.
Great place to experience living in a barn, with all the comfort of everything you need!
Great place to stay. You can sit inside and watch the long horns or horses or go outside and hand feed the animals.
Check in and out was extremely easy.
Step to get upstairs are a little steep but worth the experience.
Just what our family needed to be still for awhile, together, to take a breath! We only stayed for two nights, however, we arrived on Christmas… to stay near the animals in the “stable”… could not get more perfect a reminder of the true meaning of the day! To see up close the longhorns, both massive yet gentle.
Watching them coexist with the horses, seeing the bunnies and cats and chickens all living their best life! We came from the cold NorthEast, so a sunny almost 60 was perfect for reading outside. What a way to begin a vacation-spectacular! Treat yourself to this very special place- traveled with our two teen daughters and the space was perfect for the four of us. Host attentive and accommodating, making sure we were warm enough in the unseasonably cold nights (for Texas) ;-)
If your looking for the best TEXAS RANCH experience this is definitely the place! A totally unique experience with a front row view to animals including horses, longhorns, chickens, bunnies etc
The host was exceptionally tuned in to all of our needs and concerns and even referred us to some local restaurants. The loft was was absolutely delightful and had everything we needed to make our two day stay comfortable. I brought one of my relatives from California as a surprise and boy was she overjoyed and impressed to have had this experience. The only thing I would warn is, if mobility impaired, this may not be the stay for you. I would HIGHLY recommend this experience. Five STAR in my opinion—-ONE OF A KIND!!

About the host
Hosted by Greg Nielsen
A technology entrepreneur with an interest in restoring and driving classic vehicles. I thought the barn would have been a great place to work on cars, but my city girl wife had other plans, and filled it with animals, including registered Texas Longhorns, Horses, Holland lop-eared bunnies, chickens, ducks, cats and ......
Why they chose this property
A little bit country, but close enough to all of the amenities. We are an oasis in the middle of suburban housing sprawl. We are close to Tesla, SpaceX, Amazon and downtown Austin for those blending work with pleasure.
What makes this property unique
Close to major freeways. Privacy of country living, but near proximity to shopping, entertainment and water parks.
