This cabin worked out great for our family, we all enjoyed it. The wraparound deck was wonderful--coffee in the morning and wine at night while watching the deer next door. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed--better than most rentals! The location was excellent! We'd consider renting this same property again in the future.

The place was nice. There is a slight need for maintenance, ie a blind was broke in the dining room and trim was missing in upstairs bathroom. Parking is limited for more than one truck and trailer. It is a nice location for utv riding. Overall, I would suggest this place.

Cabin was perfect! Plenty of room and a short drive to Red River. There was also a hike that ended up by a lake towards the top of the mountain that was close by. Property manager was also great to work with. Would definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Lisa

Host profile image
Our family has been coming up to Red River from the Dallas area since the late 1940s. My great-grandmother bought a cabin up Bitter Creek Road in town and later built a cabin off of High Street. It was here where the family made memories as we spent our growing up years vacationing here. We were sad when my grandparents sold it, but nothing could keep us from Red River! My mom bought a cabin in the Upper Valley. And now we are creating new traditions and remembering the old ones, as the next generation makes memories in the Red River mountains. We hope this cabin provides the same, unforgettable experiences for your family.

Why they chose this property

We loved the flat ground surrounding the cabin, making it perfect for ATV trailers in the summer and snow ball fights in the winter. The floor to ceiling windows are awesome and the cabin is so incredibly spacious for families and friends to gather around the fireplace or TV. The 4 bedrooms are wonderful for privacy and one of the bedrooms, makes for a great kid's room, complete with 2 queens and a twin even a hideaway room for the kids, but don't tell the parents! The massive wrap around porch is one of our favorite qualities of the cabin! It's the perfect place to grill, enjoy a meal, drink your morning coffee or evening cocktail, and it's big enough for a dance party! We love this place!

What makes this property unique

If you're bringing a large group to Red River, check out our additional property, #4149499, "The Texas Tipi", which sleeps 13 people, and it's walking distance from "Birch Valley"!
