About this property

Cabin off the Square

Come stay in a piece of history at the infamous John St. Helen cabin that has been converted into a quaint getaway right off of the historic downtown Glen Rose, Texas square. You will be just steps away from a variety of attractions including an old time soda shop, boutique shopping, dining options and even a local museum to learn about this very cabin. You will be just minutes away from the Paluxy River, Dinosaur Valley State Park, Dinosaur World, Fossil Rim Wildlife Center, and Squaw Valley Golf Course. The rustic cabin offers farmhouse décor with one bedroom with queen bed and one twin bed, a mini fridge with coffee bar and snacks, a claw foot tub and a front porch perfect to enjoy after a fun day of exploring. Come be our guest!

Beautiful cabin and town

This was a beautiful cabin and location to stay at. Even with the cabin being directly off of the town square it was a very quite location. At night you get that nice small town feel. The property manager was also very friendly when communicating with them.

Quaint small town getaway

This is a unique stay. Loved learning the history of the cabin. The bed was extremely comfortable and the owner goes above and beyond on thoughtful amenities. Highly recommend! Note for people who have stability issues, you have to be able to climb into the tub!
