Dear Caryn, Thank you so much for sharing your lovely place with us! We came to visit my husband while he’s out of town for work and brought our three boys (7 weeks, 3, and 6). The house had everything we needed and was so clean, cozy, and welcoming — it truly felt like a home away from home. We loved taking a day trip to Glen Rose, TX, where we explored Fossil Rim Wildlife Safari and Dinosaur Valley State Park — both just about an hour away and perfect for the kids. In the evenings, sitting outside and looking up at the stars was the perfect way to end our days. We appreciated your quick communication, easy check-in, and the peaceful location close to everything we needed. We truly enjoyed our stay and hope to be back again soon! With gratitude, Taylor & Family

Brant and Caryn are absolutely the best and so is this property. Its incredibly peaceful and has everything you could ask for. we spent countless nights just watching the stars and talking with the cattle. Also the added bonus of being able to get produce from their personal farm was a dream come true.
