Spacious Cottage Rental for Group Getaway on Ranch near Dallas, Texas
A charming 50+ year old farm house (2 bedrooms, 1 1/2 baths– sleeps up to 8) that we have updated—and continue to update. It has a wrap-around porch, with your grill and picnic table in the backyard. The barn next door with its 3,000 square foot second floor has been turned into an indoor/outdoor space and has sitting areas and rugs, and can function as a third bedroom with air mattresses or 3 glamping (ie very nice) roll-out beds for those who want to sleep in the barn and listen to the sounds of the night.
Grandpa’s Old Farmhouse is a mile off the road and deep into the property; the nearest neighbor is over a mile away. The Brazos River flows through the property and is an easy 3 minute drive/15 minute walk from the house. You’ll see deer, wild turkeys, birds of all kinds, and other wild things. After grilling your favorite dish, don’t miss the western sky as it comes alive with a million twinkling stars while the coyotes and owls serenade you.
Guests can even meet Dennis the donkey, Joyce the llama, and their animal friends, visit the hen house and pick your own farm fresh eggs, visit the Painted Rock Station where the kids paint river rocks and hide them, visit the fairy forest and build houses for the fairy's, Do some Axe throwing, visit our Petrified Wood Laboratory, complete with magnifying glasses, and learn what it was like here millions of years ago while enjoying a vacation in Texas. Glampers are sure to enjoy their vacation here: it was rated "absolutely amazing" by the Good Day LA morning show!
Guests will find this site to have everything they will need throughout their stay.
We allow up to two (2) dogs with a $99.00 pet fee. There are also four kayaks, two paddle boards and lots of inner tubes free for guests to use, as well as rapids to enjoy on the river.
*At times the Firepit may not be available due to burn bans.

Visit and feed the animals at "The Barnyard" petting zoo. Pick your own fresh eggs at the Hen House.
*NEW* Get creative at the Painted Rock Station and visit the Petrified Wood Lab!
There are many miles of virgin hiking trails and easy walks; there are outdoor games like horseshoes, croquet, frisbees, a fire pit, porch sitting, bird watching, and three ponds for fishing. The ranch also has the only known Fairy Forest in the region, where glampers can build a fairy house out of natural elements. (This keeps the fairies coming back!)
The rapids are the perfect place to sit and relax in the chair chairs provided with a favorite beverage, fish, or kayak with the four kayaks and several tubes that have been provided. Glampers should also bring their mountain bikes as the area is perfect to spend the day exploring.
Guests are sure to see deer, wild turkeys, birds of all kinds, and other wild things in the area. After grilling a favorite dish, don’t miss the western sky as it comes alive with a million twinkling stars while the coyotes and owls serenade guests.
