About this property

Waterfront Vacation Home, Golf-Fish-Swim, Sleeps 12 in Wooded Resort

Rock Springs Retreat is an amazing home located on Lake Greenbriar, which is the largest lake in Holly Lake Ranch. This lake is great for fishing, boating, skiing, and tubing. The boat ramp is less than 1/2 mile from the house and we have a boat dock to tie up your boat or water toys.
What a perfect location for a large family, family retreat, or friends getaway. There is a huge deck that overlooks the lake and wraps around to a screened porch. It is the perfect spot for cooking out, watching sunsets and wildlife!
The home has an open floor plan that welcomes you from the moment you walk in. The kitchen is perfect for those large get-togethers and features an island a and a large breakfast bar. Three of the bedrooms have large windows with lake view! The master bedroom is conveniently located on the lower level. Above the garage is a game room with a pool table and in the screened porch we have a ping pong table. Stroll down the boardwalk to your own private fishing dock! Holly Lake Ranch is a beautiful, gated resort community in the Piney Woods of East Texas.
Amenities such as golf, swimming pools, tennis courts, pickle ball courts, mini-golf, horseshoes, shuffle board, volley ball, etc. are available to all of our guests. So bring your family or friends to Rock Springs Retreat for a memorable vacation and enjoy the beauty of Holly Lake Ranch!

Please note that as of April 1, 2022 there will be a fee for guests to bring motored watercraft in to Holly Lake Ranch to use on the private lakes. The fee is $50 and is good for three days.

Spacious
The property had Great Lake access. The home was spacious, and accommodations were very comfortable. The cooking equipment (stove and grill) need to be serviced or upgraded, but they were functional. There were lots of amenities with the property that kept everyone occupied. Our family enjoyed the time.

Great Get-a-Way
Our family really enjoyed our stay at Holly Lake Ranch. It was like harkening back to simpler times. The kids loved the amenities at the activity centers. Adults enjoyed sitting on the porch in the evenings watching the deer come by while the kids played ping pong. House was very well kept and equipped. We even caught a few bass and crappie.

Perfect Relaxing Weekend
Although the house is very comfortable, we spent most of our time outdoors with perfect warm autumn days. Deer roam the neighborhood and we enjoyed seeing them everyday in the backyard. The kitchen is spacious and provided plenty of space for us to work in the kitchen together. An overall relaxing weekend for our group to de-stress and renew surrounded by nature. I look forward to returning in November!

Great for a quick weekend getaway
We had a very nice trip to Rock Springs Retreat. Arrived Friday night, house was comfortably a/c cool. Perfect sunset over the lake for evening cocktails on the dock. There is ample room for quality time on the porch. I would suggest that guests bring some "river shoes" and float tubes for wading in to the lake. Enjoyed morning coffee on the dock with egrets, blue herons and a bald eagle flyover! House in good condition with plenty of cooking utensils, glassware, etc. I would rent here again.

Return visit to our favorite property!
I take my family on a weekend trip around the holidays every year and this was on our list for a return visit. Second trip was even better than the first. There’s something for all ages to enjoy between the pool room, ping pong table, huge lake view porch with rocking chairs, and dock. We love the open floor plan and large kitchen which is well stocked with dishes and cooking/baking dishes and utensils. Everything about renting this property was easy and efficient. My favorite part is watching the deer that wander through each morning. It’s fun to drink morning coffee and enjoy the view. Kids kept busy with indoor/outdoor games, video games, and hiking the trails.

About the host

Hosted by Joe and Carolyn Fields

Host profile image
We started off as college sweethearts and now have enjoyed 45 years of marriage. With 3 grown children, and 3 precious grandchildren, our home has always been the hub for folks to gather for food, fun and fellowship. We love offering a place for family and friends to gather, connect, and build great memories.

Why they chose this property

We first vacationed at Holly Lake Ranch in 2011 in this waterfront home on Lake Greenbriar. The fishing was great and we immediately fell in love with the beauty of the piney woods, private lakes, wild life, and resort amenities. In 2014 we bought a home on Lake Greenbriar to retire in. We are now blessed to manage this beautiful home for the Shuga family.

What makes this property unique

This house was our first introduction to Holly Lake Ranch. We fell in love with the beautiful wooded area, private lakes, wildlife, and extremely friendly folks.
