Hi, I’m Ashley! I split my time between McKinney and my favorite place to recharge, the lake. As the host of Tilted Oak and The Little House, I’m passionate about creating stays that feel both beautiful and comfortable. I pay attention to the little details that turn a trip into an experience, and I love sharing the places that mean so much to me. I look forward to welcoming you and helping you enjoy everything our properties have to offer.

Why they chose this property

Our neighborhood offers the best of both worlds: a quiet, tree lined setting just a short stroll from historic downtown McKinney. We love the peaceful streets, mature trees, and friendly neighbors you’ll often see out walking or enjoying the neighborhood.

Just a few blocks away, Murphy Park is a beautifully renovated green space that’s perfect for a morning walk, letting the kids play, or simply enjoying some fresh air. And when you’re ready to explore, historic downtown McKinney is close enough to walk to, with charming shops, local restaurants, and plenty to see and do.

It’s a neighborhood that feels relaxed and welcoming while still putting you close to everything that makes McKinney special.

What makes this property unique

What makes The Little House unique is its blend of historic charm, thoughtful updates, and cozy character. It has that welcoming feeling that makes you feel at home right away, while still offering quiet, private spaces to unwind after a day exploring vibrant historic downtown McKinney.

Tucked into a peaceful, tree lined neighborhood, The Little House is just a short stroll from downtown shops, restaurants, and local attractions. It’s a place where you can spend the day exploring, then come home, slow down, and truly relax.
