Perfect Granbury getaway
Very nice place right on the water! The home was equipped with everything you need and easy access to the dock for a boat rental. Never a dull moment with all the games, grilling and water toys provided.
We had an amazing time during our stay!! The views are absolutely stunning right on the lake and it was so peaceful. The setup and amenities in the house were perfect for our special weekend!!
We loved our stay for Mother’s Day weekend-property has a great layout & wonderful position on the lake. Interior was clean and offered everything we needed. Fire pit & Dock area was a great spot to hang out and watch the birds in the morning and enjoy the water toys in the afternoon.Looking forward to our next visit.
We were very satisfied with our stay at Shorhaus. It is a beautiful home and piece of property. It has everything you would want in a lake house rental. Especially enjoyed the game room, dock, and grilling area. Great viewing of sunsets at the firepit seating.
Great property! Great communication, clean, great location on the lake, fire pit , shuffleboard, ping pong and fooseball. The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked and all the little details were taken care of! Definitely recommending and will come again!
It was perfect for our family. The house is very accommodating for all ages and family sizes. You don’t need to bring a thing. Their private dock provided a place for us to tie our boat to and a place for our g’kids to fish off of. Great location on the lake and super place to stay. Fun had by all!!
We celebrated a 90th birthday with the girls. What a fabulous place. We were so impressed at the personalization and attention to details. We will be back! Thanks for helping us make a perfect celebration.
This property was perfect for our needs for our son's graduation celebration from Tarleton University in Stephenville. The short distance allowed for us to escape the crowds and retreat to this tranquil spot. There was something for everyone to enjoy! From the kayaks to the ping pong table, cornhole, firepit, the list goes on.....it was perfect! The college kids had a blast, and the family did too! Thank you for sharing this amazing property with us!
Thoroughly updated home with a large lot right on the water. Exactly as described.
Host is amazing and was very quick and clear with communication and left a very nice surprise for us.
We slept 8 comfortably and have absolutely nothing negative to say about our experience.
We'll be back!
Our daughter got married nearby and we rented this home for our family coming in from 3 different states. It was perfect for us and so beautiful. The back yard looks like a park, so nice and green with big trees, a fire pit, and a dock with kayaks. We brought our boat and enjoyed going to Stumpy’s at the marina for dinner and the sunsets on the boat ride back. The house was very clean and updated nicely. Definitely the nicest place we have ever rented. Communication was also excellent. We will definitely be back!
This is an amazing vacation spot! The house is so cute and has tons of great features for a weekend or vacation stay. The game room is right off of the main living area, all of which over looks the lake. The property is water front and has a great sitting area/fire pit right by the water. The host is incredibly responsive and went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect. We travelled with our toddler, and there was a high chair, which was perfect and a very considerate add. We have only good things to say!! Highly recommend.
The Shorhaus was the perfect place for our stay in Granbury! Not only is it minutes from town but the location on the lake was awesome! The private cove was great for floating, paddle boards and fishing. The house was very clean & homey, The host were extremely accommodating & quick to respond when we needed to communicate. We’d love to come back to the Shorhaus!!!
Lots of space for activities—all in air conditioning. Lots of water activities for us all to enjoy. Large yard, fire pit, hammock—great fun. Kitchen is well equipped for lots of people. Even 2 refrigerators were wonderful. Not enough space to cover how awesome it was. NO COMPLAINTS AT ALL!!!
We had the most wonderful time at this beautiful lake house! It was the perfect setting for our ladies weekend—peaceful, relaxing, and absolutely charming. The house was spotless, well-stocked, and thoughtfully decorated, with plenty of comfortable space for everyone to gather, laugh, and unwind. The lake view was stunning. The kitchen had everything we needed for shared meals, and the cozy living areas made it easy to just relax and enjoy each other’s company. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to reconnect and make memories. Highly recommend—thank you for hosting us
This was our second time to stay. The pictures are a great representation of the house. It makes you feel like you are home. We are older and don't even make use of all the amenities, but we love it.From the time you arrive until the time you arrive until the time you leave, there is always something to do. There is a game room, a dock for fishing, a fire pit for making smores or roasting hotdogs, a game room, and board games in case it rains or gets too hot outside. And this is the short list. We are already planning our next trip.
We couldn’t have had a more perfect setting for our family’s Thanksgiving! Everything was perfect! There was something for everyone-young and old. We especially appreciated the thoughtfulness and kindness of our hosts. Many precious memories were made here in this very special place….Best Thanksgiving ever🍂♥️🍁🦃
This property is as beautiful as the pictures. The house was perfect & exceptionally clean. There were 5 older women on the trip, & we all had plenty of private space & the kitchen had everything we needed. We sat down by the water every day. We will recommend this house to everyone & hope to go there again.
This property was our dream vacation. My family, kids and gran kids, had a wonderful time at the “Shorhaus”. We love boating, fishing and just relaxing. This place had it all. It was comfortable for all and close enough for Granbury activities in town. Well be back!
House and stay was great. Host was very responsive to all questions before and during stay. Host let us know on arrival the coffee maker was broke and a new one was delivered that afternoon. Kids loved the lily pad and kayaks. Cove was great for swimming even with a lot of boats on the water Saturday and Sunday. Would definitely stay there again.
