About this property

Country Retreat near Dallas: fishing, firepit, fireplace, fall dates available

This quaint, recently renovated farmhouse sits at the end of Farm Lane. The two guest bedrooms with queen beds have French doors that open to a covered porch, where you can sit and enjoy a cup of coffee overlooking the pond. The Master bedroom has a king bed and French doors, but opens to the back patio where the hot tub sits. Your kids will enjoy climbing the ship ladder into the loft that has five built-in beds and sleeps 7 (2 full-size beds, 3 twin beds). The kids will also enjoy the recently added "stock-tank pool." It is a cattle tank that we converted to a small pool to help our guests cool off in the summer months. The fully furnished kitchen and 2 refrigerators make it easy to prepare meals, and the extended kitchen table and 2 additional bars make it possible to feed 13+ guests in the kitchen. While you are here, enjoy a quiet walk down Farm Lane, or around the 50-acre property (you might even see a few of our neighbors’ peacocks). This house is perfect for a quiet time away with your loved one, or a great place if you have multiple families or a large group! For more information about us, the house, or the area, check us out on Facebook at Legacy Farms and Getaways.
