Wonderful Getaway

Needed some time away from the chaotic city life and found The Ranch at Walston Springs. So glad I did! Peace, quiet, and calm; not to forget the best B&B breakfast ever. Will definitely return and next time, stay longer.

Amazing room and wonderful service!

My daughter and I visited Palestine for the Polar Express train ride. The dog trot home was so rustic and cool. I loved the breezeway and wished we had the opportunity to meet other guests. We had the place to ourself which had its perks too! The owners were so kind and accommodating. Amanda made me the best gluten free waffles of my life (I took the leftovers home)! Paul helped with the lock on our door which made us feel so at ease and safe! Don’t keep searching. Book this place! I can’t wait to return.

Dream come true!

My daughter is an author of historical fiction and I'm a photographer/jewelry designer. We do a lot of history research and have toured many dogtrot cabins like the one at The Ranch at Walston Springs. We always say, "would love to spend the night here." Well, it happened. Our stay and host were delightful. They are detail people, striving to make our stay as comfortable as possible. I've been telling everyone about them!
