Two Bedroom secluded "Barndominium" just outside of Wichita Falls, TEXAS
What was once a primary residence, can now be your Texas country oasis. Our place is quirky and comfortable for your travels or extended stay. The "Shop Shack" as we refer to it, is a two bed room 1200 square foot fully furnished guest house located in Dean, TX (just outside of Wichita Falls, TEXAS).
The great room has a variety of trophy game animals and Texas related items. (Guess that would make it not Vegan friendly) Two good sized bedrooms and one bathroom. Washer and dryer onsite. We have hosted many families over the years by word of mouth and have decided to make the leap to VRBO listing to make our place easier to find for those looking for a temporary living arrangement in the Wichita Falls, TX area. We offer weekly and a deep monthly discount rate for extended stay.
Previous guests have enjoyed the secluded aspect of our place but it is a matter of minutes to any part of Wichita Falls, TX. A few have even extended for months and have had to take the place off the VRBO market.
The Master bedroom features a Queen Sized bed. The second bedroom has a full (double) bed. Couch in living room is a sleeper sofa, and we do have a queen size elevated air mattress that can be set up in living area if additional sleeping requirements are necessary.
We can accommodate indoor storage for bicycles and motorcycles.
Hotter'n Hell Hundred Riders. Our place is located just off of HWY 79 near last rest area. We are directly on the gravel night race route. (Our road is a County Maintained Gravel road...I drive a 392 Scat Pack and only issue is a daily dusty car)
We are NOT pet friendly. Renters who check in with animals will be charged a pet fee of 500.00 and rental agreement will be terminated without refund.
We request that you leave our place the way that you found it. Unfortunately, due to previous guests who left our place a wreck and did not follow house rules, we are now requiring a 250.00 refundable damage/additional cleaning deposit. We will waive this fee for approved previous renters.

Wonderful little shed shack well stocked, and very clean. They were extremely accommodating would definitely visit again. Strongly recommend staying here.
We had a great time staying at the "Shop Shack". It was relaxing, stress free and very comfortable. It was exactly as described, truly a home away from home. Check in/out was very easy, Thank you Will and Melissa for your hospitality.

We could not have chosen a better place to have a long weekend. Close to winery, distillery, dancing and great food. We will definitely be coming back to stay again. Loved the barndo and the decorations were great.

Thank you for your 5 star review. Appreciate great guests like Y'all!! We raise happy chickens 🐔!
Quaint and totally AWSOME! The only thing that could’ve been better was to know it was on dirt roads. Owners were very pleasant and accomodating.

Thanks for the feedback. We are indeed on a county maintained gravel road. Thankfully our road gets maintained on a regular basis...my ScatPack has never had issue other than a little road dust. Thank you for being great guests and keeping our place pristine during your stay. Y'all are welcome back anytime. 🙂
I do not have enough nice adjectives to describe the place and the owners, Melissa and Will. The place was better than my expectations, very clean and comfortable plus quite. It is out of the city limits but not far, so still close to everything. The owners have plenty of amenities and are very gracious host.

Thank you for the kind words. We enjoyed hosting y'all. Best wishes to you and your family!
This place was absolutely awesome!!!! We traveled around exploring a lot throughout the day but it felt good to come in after a long day and feel like we were at our home away from home. The decor was so cool and the sunrises and sunsets from here were breathtaking. Absolutely a 5 star!! I would recommend this place for anyone who just wants to feel like they never left home while on vacation.

Thank you for your kind words and glowing review. We enjoyed hosting your group!
Close enough to town but away from all that was going on for HHH. Very kind hosts and comfortable space. A few more details on the location of the entrance would have been helpful as the door is on the backside of the shop and key box inside the screen door.
Overall loved it and would book again.

Thank you for the 5 star review. Clearly a glitch in the VRBO access instructions I completed three days prior to arrival...as I included all of that down to "park on the grass, we're rednecks". I'll make sure I send through the VRBO messaging system in the future. I have had one other person not get the access instructions through that method in the past.
Such an amazing, out-of-the-way stay! I asked to move in but... lol! Seriously though... the sunrises were my favorite part of the days...Will and Melissa were such wonderful hosts! Will definitely make a point to visit again in the future.

Thank you for the kind words and 5 star rating. We ordered those sunrises just for you ;)
It was such a pleasure to meet you both and you're welcome back anytime.
My absolute favorite thing was seeing the chickens roaming the yard; brought back childhood memories! As well as the fresh eggs yummmmm ! The Shop Shack is a quite place to rest I had a weird night shift schedule for 6 days straight and I was able to comfortably rest and recharge in between shifts. I work people every day, and experience all walks of life, and I can say without a doubt that the owners are GOOD People!!!

Thank you so much for the kind words. We enjoyed hosting you and wish you all the best with your new career. We appreciate how nice you left our place... you are a five star guest.
This property has been one of my favorite places to stay while traveling. Fully functional kitchen with modern appliances and plenty of kitchenwate to ensure any type of cuisine can be created. Spices and extras onsight to add to the enjoyment of cooking. Spacious and appropriately furnished, the living area and each space throughout is carefully furnished and decorated / designed to facilitate maximum comfort. The shower and washer/dryer is well maintained and clean and the bedding was super comfortable including the pillows. The only thing I would wish for is to have a King sizes bed in the master as my significant other is over 6foot and he felt his feet were hanging off. LoL
We love this place

Thank you LaDonna and William. I appreciate your feedback on our place.
Will and Melissa could not have been better hosts. The battery on my truck died, and Will jumped the battery and let me borrow his cables. They were both very nice and welcoming. The house was very comfortable and roomy. We will definitely stay here again. Thank you.
The barndominium had everything we needed for a quick weekend in town. Thank you for the snacks and oatmeal readily available. We arrived after dark and were too tired to drive out for food, so they came in handy. I would suggest arriving while there is daylight because it is a little tricky finding the barndominium at night once you've turned off the main road. The owner was quick to respond and the check out process was simple. Thank you for a great stay!

You are welcome. It was a very dark night, but hopefully the sign we placed at the edge of our property and lights on the shop and entrance did help. We will work on putting lights on the North side of the shop to help with late night arrivals. Glad you enjoyed your stay, and I will give you a high five for how y'all left the place, it was immaculate when you left! Thank you again for choosing the "Shop Shack" for your stay.
Loved this place! Exceeded our expectations. It is quaint with lots of charm and personality. It's comfortable, well decorated, and outfitted with fun furnishings. Beds were super comfortable, great air conditioning, and plenty of space to spread out. Much better than a hotel! And, the owners were very friendly and easy to work with. We will definitely stay here again! Perfect in every way!
My experience with Will and Melissa's guest house was pleasant. It was hassle free and very accommodating for my wife and I. I was able to focus on my plans with her rather than worrying about the little things that normally come up with hotels and other overnight places.
The beds were really comfy too!
