Christmas stay
This is a cute, older home right next to the railroad track and a crossing. Train comes through regularly. It’s noisy and the house shakes. We had 8 adults (4 couples) and were expecting 4 bedrooms for each couple to have privacy and a space of their own to sleep. The 4th bedroom only has an oversized chair that folds down for a child to sleep on (not two adults). The plumbing is old and if it rains heavily the master bath toilet doesn’t flush! Ugh! Would be okay place to stay if you only have six adults or less and it doesn’t rain!
This was our second time to stay with the same group. The house is great and well put together. If you have kids that enjoy trains this is the place to go. The train engineer runs like clock work and the owner leaves each room with ear plugs just in case you need them but it really didn’t bother us. Will definitely e coming back for future events.
The property was very cute and actually being by the railroad tract was fun and different and the kids enjoyed it. I was worried about the noise from them but it didnt impact us. There was a plumbing issue (just the quirks of being on septic) but Kim was super responsive. We had a weddng near by and the location worked well for that. The immediate area doesnt offer much but a short drive into town and there's everything. Its definitely quiet except for the passing trains.
Loved our stay had two hiccups. One is the master toilet if it rains and did not see the note till after it had been used so a better placed note about that. The other was addressed appropriately would stay again. The nephews loved the trains.
We wanted to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude for such a wonderful stay at your VRBO during the eclipse. It was truly an unforgettable experience, and your thoughtfulness made it even more special.
From the moment we arrived, we were struck by the attention to detail you provided. The star-themed coffee pods were not only delicious but added a delightful touch to our mornings. Your selection of toiletries was exquisite, and we appreciated the luxury they added to our stay. Additionally, the well-stocked kitchen made it easy for us to prepare meals and enjoy cozy evenings in.
Your home is not only comfortable but charming in every way. Each corner seemed to hold its own unique charm, making us feel right at home from the start. It's evident that you put a lot of care into creating such a welcoming space for your guests, and it truly did not go unnoticed.
Thank you once again for your hospitality and for making our eclipse experience one that we will cherish for years to come. We hope to have the opportunity to stay with you again in the future.
We had the best time staying here! We went to the tracks and wanted to stay close and it was amazing!! Kim was the easiest person to communicate with and she made sure everything was perfect!! I can’t wait to go back!!
I originally booked the railway Relaxation Station for its proximity to the Texas Metroplex race track. Little did I know it was going to be one of the best places I have ever stayed while traveling. Yes there was a train track and the trains ran at different times during the day and night. I am surprised at how little it Disturbed any of us as we slept. The amenities were perfect, we lacked for nothing, and we were all extremely comfortable throughout the weekend. I will definitely book this place again next year.
The Railway Retreat and Relaxation Station was an amazing stay and is recommended for anyone traveling to Ellis County. The property manager is extremely polite and courteous.
Thank you for the great stay!
We loved this place! Everything was perfect for our little family and our dog. The whole family ran outside to watch the train go by. It did not affect our sleep at all, the house is just so comfortable. We look forward to returning in the future!
