Three of us ladies thoroughly enjoyed our belated Mother's Day getaway to Nacogdoches and Whisper Oaks. The home was perfectly comfortable, clean, and had everything we could have wanted. We loved stepping outside to hear the frogs, cicadas, and to see the lightning bugs and birds. There were beautiful sunsets on the farm. It was a lovely retreat. Our hosts were so generous, attentive, and kind! We also fell in love with the sweet farm cat, Stitches. Thank you for the wonderful stay!

Nacogdoches Country Home

We had the best time of our life. Mrs. Jacobs was an excellent hoist. There is nothing like Texas hospitality. She is the greatest hoist I have been around. The house was excellent and we enjoyed our stay. I will definitely be back. We did not want to leave, thank you for the hospitality.

very relaxing & enjoyable stay!

We just came home from a beautiful and relaxing month at this property! Latricia is the hostess-with-the-mostest, checking in regularly, providing delicious treats, and responding immediately to questions or concerns! I never knew how relaxing watching cows could be (and even the unexpected visit from a neighboring herd was fun to be a part of). We were immersed in a different locality and way of life, which is what I love about VRBO traveling. I highly recommend this property and these hosts!

Returned...

Enjoyed our stay so much the first time that we returned. It is the most peaceful country atmosphere to relax and break away from the craziness of the city. Latrisha's freshly baked homemade goodies are worth the stay alone. The home is perfect. We will be back. Count on it.

Quiet country living

We had a wonderful stay at the Jacobs' ranch. We're accustomed to country living, so we thoroughly enjoyed the quiet during the month we stayed at the house. We particularly loved the family room; it was comfortable for reading & watching TV plus large enough that I could set up my quilting table and sew to my heart's content. Our hosts were wonderful--very quick to respond to our questions, suggesting nearby attractions they thought we might enjoy and bestowing delicious homemade baked goods on us. We enjoyed the days when we could sit outside in the sun on the back patio and soak up the February rays.

Peaceful

We enjoyed our weekend stay. We were in town for our daughters wedding. Latricia and Larry jumped into action to help when we arrived early with a wedding cake that wouldn’t fit in the venue refrigerator. They helped arrange it so that it did fit in the refrigerator here. She had baked the best brownies and left them for us and even had fresh tomatoes on the table. I want to come back just to be able to relax next time.

Thanksgiving Blessing

Easy to find, my sister and I caught up on twelve years in this farm setting. We enjoyed beautiful mornings with coffee in hand around the generous dining table and afternoons on the outside patio. The sitting rooms were perfect. One for us and one for the husbands. The views were amazing. The Whispering Oaks made you aware of all the life that existed on the farm, past and present. Each night we came in from a fun day with friends and family escaping to this charming setting. Our pet dog also enjoyed room to run around and a haven for sleep. Our host had brownies for our coffee and made a pecan pie that was included in our Thanksgiving feast —not to mention a fridge full of soft drinks and water. Clean, comfortable, your home away from home, we will be back.

Perdect, Peaceful Getaway

If you need a break from the rat race of a stressful job, day-to-day pressures and all that it entails...stay at Whisper Oaks. Not only did this charming, peaceful country home help us recharge our batteries, it allowed us to experience country living. The house is furnished with everything needed. The large windows allow you to enjoy the outside even when you are inside. The owner/host was as sweet and generous as fresh blueberry muffins. Photos of the home and property do not do the place justice. This place was so much more than we hoped it would be and plan to return. I love small towns and back country roads. Whisper Oaks calls to me in so many ways. Thank you to the Jacobs family for sharing your home w/strangers. -Susette, Pat, Blue & Poppy
