Welcome to Rainbow House II! We are completely brand new and ready to make your stay extra special. Sleeps 6-8 (with Courdoroy’s Queen see link*); enjoy panoramic views of the water or stroll down the property underneath towering pecan trees to one of our two private swimming and fishing docks. Fish, swim, or kayak right from the property! Breakfast or lunch can be delivered right to your door from several great local restaurants or our family's own local coffee shop, Kynda Coffee!
The space
Enjoy the incredible and varied wildlife that loves to call this area home - from watching whitetailed deer trot across the fields in the slanting evening sun to hearing the gobble of wild turkeys, spotting pelicans landing on the various islands or seeing blue and white herons dipping down to fish while Canadian geese glide by. You may even receive a visit by our resident white duck, usually spotted on the lake (that our kids promptly named 'Professor Quackinton'), who loves affection and dried fruits and nuts or bread out of your hand, spot our adorable armadillo family waddling by in the early morning, or just lay out a blanket and watch the incredible stars at night! You can always find some fun and peace here at Rainbow House II.
Guest access
You can access the entire two acres and walk right down to the water and enjoy both the fishing boathouse and the swim dock during your stay. We live on the property in the main house, but will keep to ourselves and practice social distancing, and/or help with any needs that come up.
Guests can also enjoy kayaking right from the boathouse or swim dock-located right on the property; just unlock the yellow boathouse roof doors and two kayaks are inside, complete with life jackets (4 adult, 2 kid’s) and paddles.
Also available are two lake floats with mesh bottoms, handles and cup holders. Rope is available to tie off to dock for easy floating.
Other things to note
Generally, parking for the guest house is on the left, owners to the right, under the breezeway, but if any other parking accommodations are needed, just let us know and we will work with you if you require extra parking or have ATVs you need parked as well.
FYI: There is a telephone pole lurking at the end of the driveway; please be careful backing out-it seems to jump out and gets us too as we’re backing out on occasion!
