Amazing Secluded cottage under huge trees, on a working Ranch.

Though the well and outhouse are still standing, today's amenities have been gloriously surpassed with your comfort in mind. Soak your work day worries away in a gorgeous two person tub overlooking the towering Oaks or curl up with a good book in a king size bed with luxurious linens. Goslings Nest has a full kitchen with a classic 1940's chamber Stove or use the propane grill outside. Gosling's nest Cottage has beautiful views out any of it's windows. Cattle, horses, llamas and alpaca freely roam on ranch. On clear nights you can star gaze with no city lights around. Deer, wild turkeys, road runners, bob cats , wild hogs and coyote can be seen by guests.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen with a refrigerator, an oven, a microwave, and a stovetop. Other standard amenities include a fireplace and a coffee maker.

Secluded ranch vacation.
The pictures do not do this property justice. The bunkhouse is in the middle of a cow pasture on a large ranch. The scenery is spectacular and the freedom to walk the entire ranch is really special. You can get lost in fields of bluebonnets and sit by one of several ponds and daydream the time away. Magnificent ancient live oaks surround the yard. The bunkhouse itself is quaint and charming but could stand a bit of an update in the kitchen and bath areas to better serve its guests. I would stay here again.

It was nearly effortless booking the cottage, and everything was perfect. Kathryn is a great communicator and host, making us feel very welcome. The cottage was very clean, well appointed, had everything we needed and more! Great hospitality.

Relaxing getaway
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Gosling Nest. Kathryn was the perfect hostess she had everything we could need in the cottage including plenty of towels so that we never needed to call her for anything but we knew she was only a phone call away if we did. It was a very relaxing, unplugged from the world time we needed to celebrate our anniversary. Kathryn if we could give more than 5 stars we would and we will be back! Enrique and Sandra

My husband and I stayed at this beautiful, serene property for our 24th anniversary. It was exactly what we were looking for and we enjoyed our time there so very much. Kathryn was delightful and lent us a copy of a dvd of the Painted Churches. We lived our self-guided driving tour of the gorgeous old churches built by Czech and German immigrants in the 1800’s. Our stay in the great old cowboy cottage was perfect!
