About this property

Luxury African Tent W/ A/C, Waterfall, 300 acre ranch on the Brazos River! "Amazing"- FW Mag Tubing!

"Beautiful!"- Good Morning LA tv show

No crowds!- Sundancer sits in a beautiful forest on a magnificent deck overlooking Comanche Creek and your own waterfall! The tent (with central air/heat) has only the trees and birds for your neighbors. (see our video in the 3rd pic to the right).

“You only hear the wind and the trees” - 360 West Magazine

We imported Sundancer from Africa; it has a with a full bath (with over-sized shower), luxurious bedroom/linens, and so much more! It's on a 300+ acre working cattle ranch, with lots of river frontage!

The Fort Worth Star Telegram called Sundancer "The Best of Both Worlds" ie of nature and comfort.
The Travel Channel (online) called it "Irresistible!"

Come see why! (And note our lower weeknight rates!)

Come meet (& feed) Dennis the donkey, his girlfriend Sugar, and all his other barnyard friends! - see pics

"A cool safari getaway" - 360 West Magazine

Some activities:
- Visit our Barnyard and collect your own farm fresh eggs from our hens! Make friends with Dennis the donkey and his girlfriend Sugar, and all their barnyard friends!
- Axe throwing at the barn!
- Horse experiences for kids!
- Relax and read a book on the deck while you listen to the waterfall
- Hike the easy one mile trail to the river!
- THERE IS NOTHING ELSE LIKE OUR STRETCH OF THE BRAZOS RIVER. There simply are no other places on the river where there are SEVERAL SETS OF RAPIDS to play and tube through!
- Chairs overlooking the river are provided
- Kayaks and tubes are provided! Or (my fave) enjoy a beverage while sitting IN the rapids in one of the light plastic chairs, as the river gurgles and splashes around your feet. Great sunsets from the river!
- Build a fire in the fire pit- wood provided! (Bring your own s'mores!)
- Grill your favorite steak- grill is connected to a permanent propane tank-- no bottles!
- Enjoy the Japanese soaking tub (one of the only wood-fired hot tubs in America!)
- We have the ONLY fairy forest in Parker County; build a fairy house out of sticks and branches, which keeps the fairies coming back!
- Try your hand at roping- we'll teach you!
- Play one of the many games we provide or work a puzzle, or zone out while coloring one of the adult coloring books (but please stay in the lines!)
- We can set up a private cabana on one of the islands (small fee).
- We can shuttle you up river, where you then enjoy a 2 hour float back to the ranch! (Small extra fee applies).
- Visit our new Petrified Wood Lab, complete with magnifying glasses-- learn what it was like here millions of years ago!
- Visit the Painted Rock Station; kids love to paint river stones and then hide them!
- Hunt for animal tracks on one of the white sand islands, or build a sand castle.
- Fishing is good just above the rapids
- Hang out in the 3000 square foot second floor room in the barn
- Go hunting for arrowheads and petrified wood.
- Weatherford is 10 minutes away, and Granbury 20 minutes.

A portion of your rental fee will be donated to the Tarrant Area Food Bank for the less fortunate. (Last year our donation provided 12,000 meals!)

Sundancer is for re-discovering love and adventure! It is a couples' paradise, and is also perfect for a personal retreat.

The Comanche were quite active up and down this part of the Brazos when the earliest settlers arrived around 1850, until the Commanches' eventual conquest by the Texas Rangers and their Colt pistols around 1870; we have found lots of flint and some arrowheads on high places here. Going further back in history, the Fuller’s Folly River Ranch has an abundance of petrified wood; they say that if you have fossilized sea shells you were under water, but if you have petrified wood you had land creatures. Hunting for petrified wood is a fun adventure here. (But leave them for the next person to discover!)

We offer discounts for one week stays.
