A Note From the Owners
This isn’t just a rental but also a home the owners built and love to enjoy also, we ask all guests to treat it with respect and care.

Please note: this isn’t the spot for rowdy party groups or late-night chaos. No smoking inside, no reckless driving, and poolside fun needs to wrap up by midnight so our neighbors can sleep soundly. Thank you for helping us keep this property beautiful, peaceful, and unforgettable for everyone who visits.

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer Walker

Host profile image
I am from Austin, Texas. I am a builder and built this place for my family to enjoy and to be able to rent it out for short term. I enjoy being with the animals at Sunset Dreams Retreat and taking in all of the beauty. I enjoy being a host because I love getting to know people from all over.

Why they chose this property

It really is not in a neighborhood but a place of it's own. I love the privacy, beauty and peacefullness.

What makes this property unique

There is not anything else like it in the area. It has so much, newer Main house that is modern but yet so comfortable. The Party barn which is so fun to go play games and hang out. The animals are so much fun. We have an adorable mini donkey, a mule that is more like a horse that has so much personality and chickens! We also have a beautiful pond.
