About this property

Quiet 4BR Farmhouse: Ideal Family Retreat

Welcome to our farmhouse on two acres near Lake Whitney! Nestled just outside the small town of Whitney, Texas, our 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home is the perfect spot for families looking to relax and connect with nature.

The 1,806 square foot house is secluded and cannot be seen from the county road, ensuring your privacy. As you unwind on the wraparound porch, savor your morning coffee or marvel at the starry night sky around the fully stocked fire pit. You may even be serenaded by coyotes in the distance.

Inside, you'll find three queen beds, three twin beds, and a fully equipped kitchen. The dining room seats eight, and the living room offers two comfortable sofas (not sleeper sofas). Downstairs, there is a fourth bedroom with a queen bed, while upstairs you'll find a full bathroom near the queen bedroom and the twin bunk bedroom. The master bedroom boasts a queen bed, a full bathroom, a 50" smart TV, and a workspace.

The highlight of our property is its outdoor space. The wraparound porch features two large wooden rocking chairs, perfect for taking in the tranquil surroundings. Under the shade trees, you'll find the fire pit area, complete with ample firewood and a charcoal grill. We also provide family-friendly games, including cornhole and giant Jenga.

During your stay, you'll have access to the entire home and the surrounding two acres, with a private driveway and multiple parking spots. Please take a look at the aerial photo of the property to get a better idea of its layout.

We strive to make your stay as enjoyable as possible and will be delighted to stay in touch throughout your visit. Whether you have questions or need assistance, feel free to reach out to us through the VRBO app or using the contact information provided in our guestbook.

Please note that our farmhouse is located in a rural area, accessible via gravel county roads. While there are no local points of interest within walking distance, you'll have the opportunity to experience the beauty of the countryside. Do keep in mind that you may encounter various bugs, insects, critters, snakes, and other wildlife, as this is a true nature retreat. Embrace the sights and sounds of Mother Nature, from birds singing to squirrels barking, crickets chirping, and even a distant rooster crowing.

We look forward to hosting you and providing the perfect countryside getaway for your family!

Deep woods relax
The property is awesome , very secluded . Fire pit was used ever night and the kids enjoyed the basketball 🏀 time . Rooms are mid sized except the master bedroom. Kitchen is small and could use some updated items. The porch is fantastic.

About the host

Hosted by Dustin Jenkins

Host profile image
Hi, we are Meredith & Dustin Jenkins and currently reside in League City, Tx. Meredith is a native of Kalispell, Montana, but has called Texas her home since 2014. Dustin grew up in nearby Grandview, Texas, but has extensively traveled throughout the US working in the oil & gas industry. We have three children, Aliyah, Elsie, and Hayes and are heavily involved with their extracurricular activities. Dustin coaches both little league baseball and softball with support of everyone's favorite team Mom, Meredith!

Why they chose this property

This home is very important to us, as it was purchased to share with our large and ever-growing family. Dustin's parent's live only a few acres away. Our kids enjoy spending time at their grandparents' farm which allows us to have our very own quiet retreat next door. The space is a hit during holidays, allowing extended family the ability to travel in and have a place to stay. It's been a pleasure hosting our loved ones since 2012.

What makes this property unique

We love that the home and outdoor space cannot be seen from the county road or any of our neighbors. It's quiet, tranquil, private, and relaxing.
