WELCOME TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD!

Where you are staying is part of a 100+ acre working farm and we have 20-30 head of cattle. In Texas we call anything less than 200 acres a farm, not a ranch.

You can see the windmills on your drive in, but don’t worry, the trees surrounding our property hide them once you’ve arrived.

You’ll follow an unpaved road to our entryway, and come down a gravel driveway. Parking is available in front of the house. Please keep vehicles off the grass.

The town of Mart is just a few miles up the road. It is home to a local grocery store, a liquor store, a dollar store, a gas station and a few restaurants.

IMPORTANT NOTES

We consider our property to be family-friendly and welcome children of all ages. However, we have described the house as rustic and mean it literally. All children should be closely supervised, indoors and out, at all times during your stay.

Please be aware, this property is VERY rural, and there are bugs and critters. While nobody has ever been stung that we are aware of, there are wasps/bees at all times of year if it’s warm. They are more prevalent during the spring and summer, but we do see them during warm fall and winter days as well. We do our best to manage these inconveniences. The house is sprayed every three weeks. Our maintenance man also walks the exterior before bookings and sprays any nests he finds. We keep extra wasp spray in the cast iron stove on the porch, and in the pantry indoors. It is available for our guests to use as needed, please help yourselves.

There are sharp edges, steps, and rusty tin inside the house. Outdoors, there are numerous potential dangers - pool, hot tub, pond, tank, natural wildlife, grills, glass, choking hazards, etc. These dangers should be carefully considered before booking this property. Guests will be asked to sign a waiver releasing us from liability.

The property has ring cameras. They are not routinely monitored, only reviewed if there has been an issue or disturbance.

A brief welcome package is located on the kitchen countertop. For any further information needed, please see complete manual located on top of the fridge.
