Nice location
Near enough Lake Tawakoni to be convenient but far from neighbors. Nice big cabin with plenty of room and amenities. Property manager was great to work with and help us out. Will plan to stay again.

Peace and solitude
This was a wonderful spot away from everything but close enough to run into town for lunch. The bed was nice and comfortable and the house was a good size. The view of the stars at night was amazing. I was very pleased with the location and accommodation.

Perfect Hidden Getaway!
This place was awesome! The home was spotless. Plenty of room and comfortable. The outside has a catch and release fishing pond which my husband really appreciated. The surroundings are gorgeous and calming. The owners were extremely responsive and helpful. I absolutely would return.
