Perfect Get-Away

Our family met here for a perfect get-away. The house is beautiful and the location is very serene. We spent our days in the pool and hot tub and our evenings cooking and enjoying the outside patio area. Couldn’t have asked for anything better than this home!

Relaxing Ranch Hpuse and Property

Beautiful house with plenty of room for everyone to spread out and enjoy. Robin, the host, was outstanding in responding to our our needs. Very easy to communicate with him! It's not very often you find a place that invites the guest to explore and enjoy the outside property as well as the wonderful house. We will definately stay here again.

A beautiful oasis outside of Dallas

A gorgeous ranch home built with attention to detail. This house is a truly oasis to relax and unwind while visiting the DFW area. Highly recommend making the drive and staying here. The hosts Robin and Teresa go above and beyond as this is truly their home and have excellent communication during your stay. We brought our three kids on a family vacation to Dallas and booked this home to have a place to relax and spend our evenings after sightseeing in and around DFW. The yard was perfect for our kids, they played outside every evening. The house feels like home from the moment you walk in the door and has everything you could need. The drive into Dallas isn’t too far and it is close to other surrounding cities like Ennis and Waxahachie. If you are looking for a place to enjoy the DFW area, but relax and unwind watching the beautiful Texas sunsets every evening, book this house!

This was my second time staying at this property and it is absolutely beautiful and just as described in the listing, but I particularly want to praise the hosts for great communication and being incredibly accommodating and helpful even when problems totally outside of their control came up during our stay.

A Healing Retreat

I stayed here with my mother and son after having back surgery in Plano. Grandma T and Robin were absolutely amazing. The accommodations were spotless. The beds were very comfortable. It was such a beautiful, relaxing atmosphere to heal. Everything was above and beyond expectations. Grandma T even brought over a local pastry gift for us to enjoy. We couldn’t have been happier with our stay!
