Luxe Quiet Artist Cabin in the Woods w/ Park-Like only 2M from Lake Somerville
Welcome to Little Star Ranch: Your Luxurious and Artistic Getaway
Escape to a charming and luxurious cottage on 5 acres of picturesque grove of old oak trees. Little Star Ranch offers a serene retreat where comfort, style, and nature blend seamlessly to create an unforgettable experience. You are away from the noise and seeing other people. Dance naked; we do not care.
A Culinary Delight
Chef’s Kitchen:
Our fully stocked chef’s kitchen is a culinary dream, equipped with vintage colorful crockery bowls, a Cuisinart Fondue set, a KitchenAid mixer, Great Jones pans, a professional waffle maker, real silverware, and fabulous drinkware. Whether you’re preparing a quick snack or an elegant meal, you’ll find everything you need, from high-end appliances to quality knives and cookware. Just bring your food and beverages, and enjoy the pleasure of cooking in this gourmet space.
Outdoor Kitchen:
Our new outdoor kitchen features a Blaze-all aluminum egg grill, stainless steel tables, a canopy-covered artistic picnic table, and even a child-sized one. With an electric smoker and a propane grill, you can cook BBQ like a pro and enjoy meals in the great outdoors.
Cozy and Unique Accommodations
Main Bedroom - The Romper Room:
Relax in The Romper Room, with its queen metal canopy bed adorned with exotic handmade linens, vibrant art, and happy colors. The fresh, white guest linens and towels ensure a luxurious stay.
Unique Bathroom Setup:
Our two split baths offer convenience for groups: one with a shower and sink and the other with a toilet and sink, making it easy for everyone to get ready.
Air-Conditioned Trailer:
Just steps from the cottage, the air-conditioned trailer offers elevated views of the trees. It features a queen bed with a metal canopy and velvet curtains for dark, lazy mornings. A full bed and a convertible velvet chair also ensure maximum comfort for all guests.
Artistic and Serene Environment
Artistic Touches:
The jewelry designer homeowner has filled the cottage with unique jewelry stars and artwork. Real fossils and natural gem specimens add a touch of magic, especially as they charge in the moonlight. Discover these treasures around the house and on the porch’s "discovery zone" for kids.
Charming Decor:
Handmade accent pillows and blankets enhance the artistic theme throughout the property. The 9-foot-long chandelier, controlled via Google Home, hangs over a wood table with velvet chair cushions, perfect for long, leisurely meals.
Nature at Its Best
Private and Secluded:
Enjoy the utmost privacy on this property. Dance under the moonlight or explore the ancient Indian grounds, where you might find hand-tool rocks and petrified wood. An old creek rings the property, immersing you in nature.
Wildlife and Stargazing:
Birds and deer frequent the area, and you can attract them with birdseed and deer corn provided. Gather around the firepit with comfortable chairs and benches to stargaze at night. Only 2 miles from Lake Somerville, the location is tranquil and perfect for nature lovers.
Modern Comforts
Smart Home Features:
With Google Home, control the lights, music, and more with your voice. Change the ambiance with colorful holiday lights, or enjoy the dark with solar-lit trees.
Entertainment and Connectivity:
Take the Wi-Fi Bose speaker to the porch and enjoy fast Starlink WiFi. The cottage has books, dominos, cards, Uno, current magazines, and a frog pond for endless entertainment.

About the host
Hosted by Gay Isber McMillan
I'm a jewelry artist and painter. I decorated this with a passion of all things luxe and handmade. I wanted to create a place my grandchildren would always remember.
Come be happy surrounded by minerals, fossils, and crystals. It's about velvety fabrics, handmade pillows, braided rag rugs, and those beautiful trees!

Why they chose this property
Full of characters. 2 miles to Lake Somerville! The oak trees! The hills!
What makes this property unique
The trees! You see no neighbors! So quiet. The artist retreat is all about the experience of art. Run around naked and no one will care or know.
