Luxury Ranch Retreat on 100+ Acres Near Dallas w/ Pool & Lake Access
Welcome to Cross Creek Ranch & Retreat — our family’s dream getaway, now yours to enjoy.
Set on over 100 private acres just one hour north of Dallas, this countryside estate was lovingly created by our family as a place to reconnect, recharge, and celebrate life’s most meaningful moments. We’re honored to share it with guests who appreciate beauty, comfort, and time together in a peaceful, elevated setting.
Cross Creek Ranch blends rustic charm with thoughtful luxury. Whether you're attending a wedding nearby at The Grand Ivory or Bethel Rock, gathering with loved ones, or simply escaping the city for a breath of fresh air, this home invites you to slow down and savor every detail. Inside, you’ll find vaulted wood ceilings, a stone fireplace, and curated decor throughout. There are five private bedrooms with plush bedding and Tempurpedic mattresses, along with three spacious bathrooms — including a serene master suite with a soaking tub, sunset views, and two walk-in closets.
The kitchen is fully stocked and designed for gathering, with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a dining space for 12. The main living area offers a cozy space for movie nights with a 77” Sony OLED TV, and each bedroom features its own TV for winding down. High-speed WiFi is available throughout the home, along with a peaceful, tucked-away office nook — ideal for guests who work remotely or simply need to check in between moments of rest.
Step outside to experience the true magic of Cross Creek. The home is surrounded by rolling pastures and expansive views of the Texas sky, offering some of the most beautiful sunsets you’ll ever see. There are shaded loungers by the private pool, perfect for relaxing after a swim or enjoying a quiet afternoon. Just off the master bedroom, you’ll find a private porch with a swing overlooking the landscape — a peaceful spot for morning coffee, reading, or watching the sky change colors in the evening.
You’ll also have access to a stocked lake just a short walk from the house, perfect for fishing or kayaking (gear included). With so much open space, it's an ideal setting for bird watching, stargazing, and reconnecting with nature, far from the noise and stress of daily life.
We only open our calendar for a few select stays each month to ensure the home is always prepared and refreshed to the highest standard. Every visit is carefully readied with clean linens, stocked essentials, and thoughtful touches throughout — because we believe comfort is in the details.
Please note: this home is designed for rest and reconnection. We do not allow events or parties, and the maximum number of guests is 12. Pets are not permitted. This is a space we deeply care for, and we kindly ask that all guests treat it with the same love and respect that we do.
Cross Creek is more than a place to stay — it’s a place to feel at home. Whether you're kayaking at sunrise, cooking a shared meal, reading on the porch swing, or watching the stars come out at night, we hope you'll find the same peace, joy, and connection here that our family has for years. We can’t wait to welcome you.

Optional early check-in (2 PM) and late check-out (1 PM) are available for $200 each, upon request and pending availability. To ensure we maintain the highest standards, requests must be made in advance and are subject to availability.

About the host
Hosted by Jane & Will
We’re a Texas family through and through — born and raised here, with deep roots in the land and community. Cross Creek Ranch is more than just a property to us; it’s a slice of heaven we dreamed of for years. We poured our hearts into creating a peaceful, beautiful space where people can slow down, spend time together, and reconnect with nature.
Hosting has become a joy because it allows us to share this special place with people who truly appreciate stillness, sunsets, meaningful connection, and a slower pace of life. We hope that every guest leaves feeling restored, rested, and reminded of what matters most.

Why they chose this property
We chose this area because it offers the best of both worlds — it’s just an hour from Dallas, but feels like a true escape from the hustle. The land is peaceful and quiet, with rolling pastures, wildlife, and skies that seem to stretch forever. We were drawn to the serenity here — no road noise, no distractions — just space to breathe deeply and live more intentionally.
It’s also located near beautiful wedding venues like The Grand Ivory and Bethel Rock, making it the perfect retreat for families or friends coming together for special celebrations. This land inspires us daily, and we knew it was the perfect setting for a home that brings people together.

What makes this property unique
Cross Creek Ranch isn’t just another rental — it’s our family’s dream brought to life. Originally built as a gathering place for our family, every inch was thoughtfully designed with connection, comfort, and joy in mind. From the Tempurpedic beds to the vaulted ceilings, from the swing porch with sunset views to the chef’s kitchen made for shared meals — we’ve lovingly created a space where lasting memories are made.
Unlike typical rentals, this home feels warm, personal, and cared for. It’s filled with intention and details that make guests feel like they’ve stepped into something special. We don’t just rent it out — we invite people in. And we’re grateful for each guest who respects and cherishes this space as much as we do.
