This property is exactly as pictured. We loved our stay here with our 4 adult kids while visiting for the World Cup men’s soccer games that were played in Dallas. We made good use of all the activities that this house/property had to offer. We gathered and ate fresh eggs every morning. We used the kayaks/life vests and fishing poles out on the lake. The yard was beautiful and my kids liked that there were outdoor speakers for their music! The pool table was definitely used as well. Steve the host was great to work with and we will definitely stay here again if traveling back to Dallas. Also the hot tub and outdoor fire pit looked great and we definitely would have used both had we not been visiting in July.

Excellent vacation in a wonderful, well equipped house.Our dog really enjoyed the fact that the house was secure on all sides and could run around the entire property. We took full advantage of the hot tub and bar-b-que during our stay. The hens and access to fresh eggs were a pleasant surprise.Location wise, the property was ideal for the various day trips we made to down town Dallas and surrounding parks, to Fort Worth and to the state parks north of Dallas. Garland old town was a surprise too, very interesting.The propoert lived up to everything that was advertized and Steve, owner, was incredibly responsive to any questions we had.Strongly recommend to as a place to stay in the Dallas area

This home was so sweet and cozy. The owner is so very nice to work with. The chickens and horses were a hit for our families. There was a slight problem with the water freezing and his maintenance men were right there getting them thawed and they were very professional. Beautiful home to make family memories. Very lovely home!

We took our son, daughter and their families to visit the Ft Worth Zoo. This house was in a great central location for things in the area. It looked in person just as beautiful as it looked in the pictures online and was large enough to comfortably accommodate out group of 10!

Modern Oasis

The property is definitely an oasis in the midst of a very suburban area, not far off of I-30. The backyard is delightful, even though there was some street noise. Everything was very clean, and suited our group of 4 couples. The kitchen was well equipped, which was great for us cooking all our meals there. This house was perfect for our needs.

Wonderful Christmas vacation

Steve and his team were great, from booking all the way through check out. Communication was always quick and helpful. The property is beautiful, the home is spacious and well appointed. Exactly as described in the listing. It was too cold during our stay to spend much time outside, but we did use the hot tub one afternoon and sat around a big fire in the fire pit that evening. We, our children, and grandkids all had a great time and everyone agrees that we would stay here again without hesitation.

Adventure close to Home

A more distant get together was initially planned but health concerns changed the situation. This spot close to home gave the children horseback riding, kayaking, paddle boating and a hen house enclosure where they collected eggs. The adults enjoyed being together in one spot with a beautiful grilling area, a covered hot tub and flowers everywhere bringing beautiful butterflies. Everyone had fun with s’mores around the fire pit. The kitchen was well-equipped and the bedrooms comfortable. The host was always easy to contact and accommodating. This was our first experience renting and it was definitely a positive one.
