From the time you get up, the home will encourage you to get outdoors and relish in the picturesque setting. Spend the afternoon swimming with the kids or just relax in the gazebo and throw in a fishing line. For a short night of entertainment, gather together in the game room. Just a short 20 minute drive to the world famous PGA Golf Course.

Beautiful Home

We were in TX to celebrate my mom’s 90th birthday and this location (close to my sister’s home) was ideal for all of us coming from out of town. We loved the view from the back patio and the home felt like we could relax and feel at home!

This house was a beautiful oasis for our Christmas. We traveled from Canada and Minnesota to spend family time with our daughter and family in Celina. It has been over 8 years since we have. Sunsets, outdoor space, comfy couch and wonderful property nanager

Seeing the Grandkids

Absolutely beautiful property!! Clean and nicely decorated. Felt like home, but better! The yard is the gem of the property and was the highlight of our time there. Made me come home and start looking at waterfront home listings for sale in my area. I would definitely book here again.

Relaxing

We really enjoyed our mini-getaway at the Plake House. The home was very clean cozy and welcoming. The home had so much character and I could feel the care that the owner took to make this place feel like home. I would come back again. Thank you for opening your home to me and my family.

Plake House

Enjoyed our stay at the Plake house. Lots of room, lovely view, close to park for the grandkids, lots of games for both kids and adults. Neighborhood was quiet and close to downtown Celina for good restaurants. Only drawback was trying to keep the home cool during the overly hot weather...upstairs bedroom over garage area was always a bit too warm. Otherwise, the rest of the home was fine.

Thank you for your review Annette. We enjoyed hosting you and would welcome you back again. We apologize that the upstairs was hotter than you felt was comfortable. Unfortunately when the heat is at or over 100, AC systems struggle to keep up. We will look into adding additional fans to help.

About the host

Host profile image

To Our Plake House Guests,

Our home became your vacation rental as a way for us to serve in full time ministry and still keep our beautiful home. Most missionaries live where they serve, but the dynamics of Bonnie Floyd Ministries are uniquely different. Though we do spend more time on the island of Barbuda then we do here, it is a necessary for us to come home two to three times a year.

Our connection to Barbuda is a bold and beautiful story of how tragedy was turned to triumph and is told in my book Bound to a Promise. When you arrive to our home you will find this book as a gift to you. I believe Bound to a Promise will capture your attention from the first page and intrigue you through to the last!

We will strive to do our very best to make your stay a comfortable and relaxing one. We love sharing our little slice of heaven on earth with you, and hope that you love it as much as we do.

Enjoy your stay!

Donnie & Bonnie

Why they chose this property
