Weekend in Serenity
The property is beautiful, tranquil, quiet and away from all hustle and bustle. Perfect spot to meditate, listen to and watch nature. Charlotte, the host, is amazing! The pool was cool and refreshing. The pond was like glass in the early morning. House is beautiful and has scenic views from every angle. Kitchen is amazing! Bathrooms and bedrooms are beautiful and no expense spared with linens and beds are comfortable. We loved the fire pit and gazebo! Thank you for an amazing weekend!!

Great stay!
This house is beautiful! We enjoyed everything about it. It is so tranquil and peaceful. The views from the windows were so beautiful. Our favorite area to spend the time was the lap pool. It was perfect in this Texas heat. And the host was so kind and always in contact with us if we needed her. We hope to book this house again soon.

Hidden Gem
This is an absolutely beautiful property! Located off the main road and nestled among live oaks, this property is a welcome retreat from city life. Charlotte is a wonderful host. She provided helpful information up front and stayed in contact with us during our stay to make sure we had everything we needed. If you enjoy wildlife, such as deer, hawks, owls, cranes and egrets, this is the place to stay. My family and I are already planning a trip back.
