About this property

Rancho De Los Arboles

Our Denton County country guest house which is located in the heart of the DFW Metroplex…approximately 40 miles northwest of downtown Dallas, 40 miles northeast of downtown Fort Worth and 60 miles from Arlington.

The restored Texas log farmhouse is nestled amongst gorgeous 100+ year old live Oaks trees. Think of a rustic but cozy and elegant Colorado lodge. There are spectacular views with some pitch and roll offering the true beauty of this impressive countryside. Have fun watching the horses graze, deer feeding at dawn and all the wonderful bird species that come our way. Located on 22 acres down a secluded country road.

Enjoy the beauty of a clear Texas night before bed and a fresh cup of coffee or tea on one of the two large porches, complete with rockers, while you watch our magnificent Texas sunrises and sunsets to relax your body and soul. Watch the horses graze, the chickens hunt for bugs...we sometimes have deer and wild turkey come up to the house. Also take time to sit by the pool while sipping on your favorite beverage, or enjoy the wood burning fireplace inside!

The house has seven bedrooms, 4 baths. Downstairs is the master bedroom with queen bed, master bath with double sinks off the bedroom. The other bedroom downstairs has twin beds with a bathroom off the side. There is a family room with a flat screen TV, DVD player, wood burning fire place, fully stocked kitchen and small dry bar. The glassed in back porch shares the wood burning fire place with the family room and has a sitting area and dining table.

Upstairs are five bedrooms (two with queen bed, two with double beds and one with double bunk beds) and two baths. Please note that the log cabin design provides for an open concept and the upstairs bedrooms do not have doors. There are privacy screens available to shut off the bedrooms from the hallway.

Outside you will find porches all along the front and back of the house with ceiling fans and either rocking or Adirondack chairs. you will have access to a fenced private pool with plenty of area to lounge and a fire pit in the pool area. The pool can be heated in the cooler months. Imagine sitting around the fire pit with a hot toddy and maybe some s'mores while the children swim in the middle of the winter!!! There is a charge to cover the propane cost if your group elects to use the pool.

We are a pet friendly property. Please be ready to disclose your pets, sign the pet agreement and pay the pet fee.

This is a working horse breeding facility. You will see the trainers and barn workers busy with the horses. We ask guests to not visit the barn or pet the horses unless an employee of Los Arboles is available to be with the guest. But, if you and your guests would like a tour of the barn...just notify us. If we are available we would love to show off our barn and horses. We typically have one to three baby horses (foals) born per year and they are adorable. In the spring and summer we incubate and hatch chicken eggs. Come see!!

Note, to protect our property and horses we have two security cameras. One on the front porch that faces out to the front pasture and the parking area. The other camera is on the front of the barn and views the drive, the lawn between the chicken house and the west side of the house.

This property is in an amazing location. Close to Denton, McKinney and Frisco. While you will be in a secluded country area...around the corner are restaurants, a huge Walmart for shopping and Lake Lewisville is six miles away. The property is very convenient to all the wedding venues in Aubrey as well. Come on out!

Such a cute house and property for a relaxing stay with family. Pool is very deep, chickens are roaming freely, and the porch offers a nice place to relax and enjoy the shade outside. Be careful of the outdoor bugs at night!

The property was beautiful and the house was great for our large group. The kids LOVED seeing all the animals and swimming in the pool. Overall everything was wonderful. If we had one complaint, it would be the small beds - but that didn’t take away from the good experience

Beautiful property with a calming effect. The ranch hand gave our little girls a ride on his golf cart and let them pet the horses. Our family of 15 fit in the house comfortably. Nice 9 foot deep pool. Porches on front and back of the house were comfortable even in the 90 degree heat with great views.

Our stay was great. The only reason I gave a 4 star is that I think if there were doors on the bedrooms it would be much better. The pool was great and seeing the farm animals was a plus! Also, the tour of the barn, was great!

Host profile image
John and Ellen bought this property needing more land for our expanding horse business. The property had a lovely log home on it so we decided to turn the home into a vacation rental.

We loved fixing up the home for peoples' gatherings and have loved the knowing people are sharing good times there. There have been amazing stories of love and togetherness at Los Arboles. Thanks for sharing everyone!
