Fresh eggs from our farm are always a guest favorite, and we always have olive oil and spices in each cabin’s pantry for your cooking pleasure. Sooo happy you really enjoyed your stay! Happy trails!

You won’t regret booking this absolute gem! It’s better than the photos. Host is friendly and the atmosphere is pure bliss. My son, husband and I caught this listing last minute for a funeral and stayed one night- even with the chaos of packing up and traveling hours on the fly… the peaceful welcoming nature of this place left me feeling rejuvenated. We can’t wait to come back!

We enjoyed hosting you. We wish there would not have been a county wide burn ban in place as well, and you could have really enjoyed a bon fire.

Unique quiet country cabins, perfectly appointed tiny home living with extra amenities. Set up beautifully with air conditioning and fans for the Texas summer. We really enjoyed this special property and it was easy to access the highway and visit our family in surrounding towns.

The cabin was amazing! There were little extra things like shampoo and conditioner and soap. Things that I actually did not expect but was amazing! The over all feeling was very cozy as soon as you walked in!We stayed for our anniversary was a great get away from everything for a weekend! We even got a chance to go Country Spring Vineyard! Would highly recommend for a intimate cozy get away!!!
