Second great stay

Traveled from OH to visit my son at Ft Hood 2 years ago and had to get this place again. Such a peaceful and quiet setting with loads of wildlife. Clean and spacious accommodations. Travel from this location to most anywhere in the area is super easy. Always good communication with the owners. This place is a hidden gem.

This secluded little property is simply AMAZING. Looks just like the pictures and is sooooo peaceful. Property owners are awesome and very responsive. The wild life in the morning is so beautiful, saw a group of dear near by and some rabbits. About a 15 min drive to town. If you looking just to get away this is your SPOT!!

Phenomenal!

The photos are NOT photoshopped. Wonderful accommodations. We enjoyed watching the wildlife in front of the property and enjoying the serenity. This is the perfect place to put down your phones and enjoy reading one of the many books, playing games with your other guests or cooking in the gourmet kitchen. If I'm ever back in the area, this is where I want to be!

Bass Tournament

Very nice place with plenty of room inside. Secure with gates. Just note if you have boats and trailers the drive coming in is a little treacherous to get around the big rocks on the last 120 degree turn. Especially in the dark. Also keep an eye out for a big tree you have to get around half way down the drive. If you have tall talons, you might have to lower them to get under the trees. Also, Bring your own towels. Other than those items, we had a terrific stay.

Perfect Get Away

The description did not do this property justice. The Loft provided adorable views of the accommodations and surrounding property...they thought of everything! It was the perfect get-away for a girls' weekend. The owners were quick to respond to all correspondence and were so helpful throughout the process. (from answering questions before the reservations to helping during the stay to provisions when checking out.) Details about expectations were clear. We were comfortable and safe. I highly recommend this location, and plan on staying there again!

Great getaway

This was a GREAT getaway from Austin. After weeks in quarantine, I was ready to give my family and I a break. The property was beautifully furnished. It had a rustic vibe but all the amenities were first class and new, and many were made onsite (the host family does woodworking). The decor was just gorgeous and well thought out. My 3 young kids were so excited about the kids' room with the built in bunk beds, they said it felt like summer camp. :) Again, the details were impressive (curtains by every bed so that everyone had privacy, amazingly comfortable pillows/bedding etc.). The property is amazing too - it is set back from the road and gated, so it was great to be able to just open the door and tell my kids to go run around. They saw deer and even a roadrunner when they went on "hikes" and made some great memories trying to catch lightning bugs! We also enjoyed the fire pit and the homemade games (cornhole, Connect 4, blocks, see-saw) that were available to us. There are several parks in the area, but we stuck with the same one (Temple Lake) because it ended up being so perfect for kids - not crowded, large beach (bring water shoes), and shallow. The host is an extremely friendly and attentive family. They even went out of their way to loan me a charger when I realized i forgot mine. The only thing I'd say is that if you're travelling with very small kids, the staircase is pretty steep and there is some delicate furniture, so you'll have to be vigilant about keeping them away from those. This place is a jewel and it might become our family's summer tradition :)

Need To Get Away

After 43 days of quarantine and bedrest my family and I just needed to get away. The Loft is very open and our children loved their sleeping room with the built in bunk beds. It's hard finding homes that can accommodate a family of eight, hotels are out of the question, so it was nice stumbling across this property. Home is set back and cannot be viewed from the road. Owners are on the property should you need anything. It was well stocked with basic seasonings, pots, pans, sugar and coffee, trash bags, paper towels, toilet paper, shampoo, and conditioner for a two day supply (we've stayed at some properties with none of that). Master bedroom doesn't have any windows which makes sleeping in easy. There's a nice table on the porch to eat outside, a lil smokey bbq pit, and a fire pit just outside the front door. The owner keeps the firewood well stocked, we didn't have to gather our own. There are three access points just up the road we found to the lake. Our favorite was Leona park, they had wild dew berries growing and the little kids enjoyed picking them while the big kids dropped a line in the lake.
