JUST FEATURED ON NICKELODEAN TV! Luxury safari tent just 40 minutes from TCU!

DISCOVER THE MAGIC! We are pleased to introduce Sundancer, THE MOST AMAZING AND ROMANTIC GETAWAY in Texas! (Be sure to see our short video-- upper left corner of opening photo). WE ARE NOW OFFERING A SHUTTLE UP RIVER TO THE DENNIS BRIDGE, WHERE YOU CAN FLOAT 2 HOURS BACK TO THE RANCH! (small charge applies). In a February article, the Fort Worth Star Telegram called it "The Best of Both Worlds" ie of nature and comfort. In March, the Travel Channel (online) featured it as one of "8 Irresistable Sleepovers for Adults"! Come see why! (And note our lower weeknight rates!) Sundancer is a luxurious safari tent (with central air and heat for your year-round comfort), and sits on a magnificent deck overlooking Commanche Creek (complete with a waterfall). It is deep inside the Double F River Ranch, a private 300 acre ranch on the banks of the Brazos River, and home to longhorn and Angus cattle. Some activities: - Relax and read a book on the deck while you listen to the waterfall - Build a fire in the fire pit - Enjoy the Japanese soaking tub - Play one of the many games we provide or work a puzzle, or zone out while coloring one of the adult coloring books (but please stay in the lines!) - Race a radio-controlled boat in Commanche Creek - The ranch boasts the ONLY fairy forest in Parker County; build a fairy house, which keeps the fairies coming back! - Take the easy one mile hike to the Brazos River - THERE IS NOTHING ELSE LIKE OUR STRETCH OF THE BRAZOS RIVER. There simply are no other places on the river where there are SEVERAL SETS OF RAPIDS! - Kayaks are provided, or float in one of the tubes (see video of our tubing at vrbo.com/706433). Or (my fave) enjoy a beverage while sitting IN the rapids in one of the light plastic chairs, as the river gurgles and splashes around your feet - Hunt for animal tracks on one of the white sand islands, or build a sand castle. - Fish just below the rapids - Relax on the bluff overlooking the river, and enjoy watching the wildlife - Hang out in the 3000 square foot second floor room in the barn - Rent the farmhouse too (vrbo.com/706433), which sleeps up to 12, and create a larger friend/family experience - Go hunting for arrowheads and petrified wood. The tent has central air conditioning for your year-round comfort. Sundancer is for re-discovering love and adventure! It is a couples' paradise, and is also perfect for a personal retreat. The master contains a queen bed, and the complete bathroom features a luxurious over-sized shower. (The living room also contains a queen sofa bed if more sleeping spaces are needed.) A story: My photographer suddenly stopped shooting, turned, and whispered, "Do you have baboons here?!" I chuckled--"Those are owls, and they are my favorite sounds of the night," I replied. Because of Sundancer's fabric walls, at night you will hear owls, turkeys and coyotes serenade you at night. In the morning you'll awaken to a thousand birds singing to you. You’ll see deer, wild turkeys, birds of all kinds, and other wild things. The Comanche were quite active up and down this part of the Brazos when the earliest settlers arrived around 1850, until the Commanches' eventual conquest by the Texas Rangers and their Colt pistols around 1870; we have found lots of flint and some arrowheads on high places here. Going further back in history, the Double F River Ranch has an abundance of petrified wood; they say that if you have fossilized sea shells you were under water, but if you have petrified wood you had land creatures. Hunting for petrified wood is a fun adventure here. (But leave them for the next person to discover!) Weatherford is only 10 minutes away and Granbury is only 20 minutes away; both have great restaurants. And this close to Fort Worth, you could actually commute and have a ranch to come home to at night-- note the lower pricing mid-week!
