Come get a big dose of Texas! Working cattle ranch with 200 acres of rugged country to explore. Quite often we will ride by the cabin on the horses and kids can climb on for a photo or short ride.
Take a dip in the the 6 acre private lake that also offers great fishing and kayaking. Want some adventure? Sign up for the Jeep tour of the ranch. Serious about fishing? Get the 2 man bass boat with trolling motor.
Want to see stars? We are an hour SW of Fort Worth so well away from the city lights.
Your well behaved dogs are welcome but please add under extras the $25 additional cleaning fee. If they are don’t leave hair everywhere I will refund it.
Our family recently had the pleasure of staying at John's cabin, and it was the perfect get away for us. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with the peaceful sound of nature and a cozy, welcoming atmosphere. The cabin itself was clean, well-equipped, and well furnished, providing all the comforts of home while still maintaining that rustic charm.
We hiked around the property, fished in the lake, and sat around the fire pit at night.
John has beautiful land that feels far away from hustle and bustle of our day to day lives. We would highly recommend this stay for anyone looking to get away.
I loved it. I'm already thinking about my next vacation since the tranquility and peace it provides made me forget about my routine. I hope to go back soon.
This place was a great place to gather with our adult children. The cabin is rustic but comfortable with some great amenities and a beautiful view of the pond and ranch land. John is an exceptional host...very accessible and helpful! We loved the jeep ride and his horses, cows and dogs! We are already planning a return trip! Thank you John for a fun weekend!
Our stay was so relaxing! We picked a perfect weekend to fish and kayak out on the lake. The cabin was perfect! John was accommodating to schedule, and even had a nice conversation with him while fishing. Hope to come back soon!
The cabin was wonderful and just what we expected! It was very nice and quiet and my family enjoyed it. We stayed fishing on the lake a lot of the time and saw lots of deer. It was an overall great experience and we will definitely go back again.
I hate leaving this review because I don't want to spoil this for others by letting the world know about this place and its owner.
Absolutely amazing. Beyond words. My Wife looked at me one day on the porch swing and said "you did good". Highest praise out there. It's a piece of heaven on earth and John is an amazing host with just the right amount of communication to make you comfortable without feeling managed. Can't say enough about the weekend but would love to do this on a regular basis. Thank you John for making our Memorial day memorable.
