Luxury Getaway in East Texas, Pool • Jacuzzi

I’m Denise, the creator and host behind Blackwood Resort in East Texas — a place where design, nature, and stillness meet.
I’ve always loved creating spaces that make people feel something — places where you can slow down, reconnect, and experience beauty in the details.

What started as one cabin has grown into a collection of romantic, design-forward retreats — each one crafted to celebrate connection, peace, and the wild charm of East Texas.
Hosting allows me to share that vision with others, and it’s my joy to create experiences that become part of your story.

Blackwood is tucked away in the quiet hills of East Texas, surrounded by tall pines, shimmering lakes, and open skies. I chose this area because it still feels wild and untouched — a place where you can hear the wind move through the trees and the stars seem close enough to reach.

What I love most is the balance here — peaceful and remote, yet close enough to local vineyards, antique markets, and charming small towns that give you a taste of Texas character. It’s a landscape that invites you to slow down, breathe deeper, and feel connected again — to nature, to each other, and to yourself.

Each space at Blackwood was designed with intention — blending modern luxury with the stillness of nature. What sets it apart isn’t just the architecture or the amenities, but the feeling it creates.

Every cabin tells its own story: open-air tubs beside waterfalls, lakefront views framed by floor-to-ceiling windows, and details chosen to slow you down and draw you closer.

Guests can also personalize their experience with curated add-ons — private dinners, romantic setups, and spa-inspired touches — designed to create meaningful moments and lasting memories.

Blackwood isn’t just a place to stay. It’s an experience created for connection, reflection, and the kind of moments that stay with you long after you’ve gone.
