About this property

Solitude and privacy lavishly adorned like no other in the middle of Nature

Pamper the senses and soothe your soul while wrapped in Nature’s arms. This Copper-colored sea container dubbed the “Copper Can” is set in the middle of a seven-acre wooded pasture decked with enormous boulders.

Everything becomes a piece of conversation. Whether it is the converted 53’ Conex box “tiny home” itself (there’s nothing tiny about it!), the high-end amenities, the top deck, the whimsical wildflower backyard, the copper decorated kitchen with full-size appliances, dinnerware, pot and pans, ethanol-burning fireplace, spa-like rain shower, Japanese soaker tub, or the one-of-a-kind view.

The show-stopper of the Copper Can is a one-of-a-kind FormsInNature chandelier designed by the artist Pio Diaz out of Denmark. The dappled light it gives makes you feel like you are in the middle of a mystical forest with tree branches gently bending in the wind. The magical light and the queen-sized adjustable, the vibrating bed will invite spontaneous napping, relaxed reading, or romance. Lavish faux fur throws, robes, and area rugs complete the enticing experience.

If you can tear yourself out of the Japanese soaker tub, there are a dozen convenient and fun places to go nearby (We are less than two miles from the Isle Du Bois State Park), but the charm of the Copper Can is that you can have solitude, privacy, quiet alone time all in one place.

Have your breakfast while looking out over the pasture where our retired racehorse, Rex, and his two miniature donkeys, Wally and Beaver, wait for their treats from you. Birdwatching paradise is found right on the front porch with feeders and baths that bring them right to you. Traditional entertainment can be had watching the 55” wall-mounted HDTV with premium DirecTV channels. Take a nap on the mosquito-net-covered-daybeds perched atop the Copper Can on the full-size deck. Grill your dinner out on the charcoal BBQ grill as the sun sets. Watch the moon rise as it seems to balance on top of the Copper Can as you cozy around the fire pit. Under the starlit sky make new, unforgettable memories to treasure for a lifetime all at the Copper Can at Slye Ranch.

Beautiful Spot
We came in for a festival in Celina, and really enjoyed our time at the property. Nice, relaxing setting and the container is appointed very nicely. Our host was very friendly and pointed out everything we needed to know about. Recommended!

perfect getaway
We had the most perfect weekend at the Copper Can! Lynn was an incredible host - kind, thoughtful, and communicative. We had perfect privacy but knew she was just a phone call away should we need anything. The house was beautifully decorated, clean, well-stocked, and comfortable for the range of temperatures during an October weekend in Texas. Rex & the donkeys were so sweet & we loved watching them in the pasture from the rooftop daybeds where we napped & read in the afternoons. We are honestly excited to return for another weekend getaway sometime in the future!

Best Birthday Ever!
That’s what my girlfriend said after our stay at the Copper Can! Larry & Lynn were the best hosts ever too! Lynn went all out on the inside, it was 1st class, and Larry had the outside grounds looking like velvet! Ray Roberts Lake right around the corner, what a huge plus! We will definitely be back in the fall to enjoy even more the Copper Can has to offer! It’s now our little Hideaway from Home!

Why they chose this property

We added the Copper Can to our BnB business after we started turning away too many of our loyal guests from our A-frame Cabin. We wanted something unique to set down in the middle of our wooded horse pasture to be surrounded by nature and wildlife - a place that would provide solitude, privacy, and yes, that little bit of romance!

What makes this property unique

Tiny House that isn't so tiny. No holes barred lavishly decorated with goods from around the world are a source of continuous conversation.

If you are considering buying a tiny house you might want to really experience living in one before making your purchase. See what can be done from scratch to the completed product.

One-of-a-kind place to call your own. A place to share with that special someone without any interference from the outside world. If you don't tell anyone where you'll going we won't tell either. Get away from everything and everyone. Get away without traveling many miles.

A place that provides quiet, safety, and calm. Sleep with the windows up as the sounds of nature soothe you to sleep. No need to close the curtains as there isn't anyone around to see inside except for retired racehorse Rex and his two miniature donkeys, Wally and Beaver.

A place that has everything you need to invite a few friends out to enjoy an evening under the starlit night to reminisce about the old and make new plans for future endeavors. Your friends will enjoy a relaxed, country setting away from the concrete jungles.

Clean and spotless in your new hidden gem with help only a phone call away should you desire or need anything. Contact with the homeowner and housekeeping occurs only if you contact them after check-in. Otherwise, you will never know they reside on the other side of the property.
