    Beautiful and comfortable home in the midst of gorgeous scenery! Nearby cows, turkeys, and horses all give you the feel of country living. Breathtaking sunrise over the mountains! It would be helpful to have instructions on using the remotes and TV, but a very small problem compared to the great time we experienced. Highly recommend Tranquility.

    The cabin was cute, the toilet is tiny, the beds uncomfortable. We tried them both. No dishwasher if you need one. Told not to cook anything with strong seasonings. Not to set the thermostat below 72. We did enjoy our stay would recommend if you was only there for the weekend.

    We found exactly what we were looking for: An oasis of serenity to unwind, a getaway from the summer heat of TX reminding us very much of sceneries in the Blackforrest in Germany.Adding to our memories was a nice chat with Mrs Lutz, the owner who showed us her miniature horses.

    What an awesome long weekend we had in this adorable cozy cabin that had everything we needed! We kept warm by the gas stove inside the cabin and even built a fire in the fire pit outside the cabin so that we could take in the beautiful surrounding view where the cabin sits. We will definitely be going back for a longer stay in the future.

    We loved our stay and have already discussed visiting again. Cabin is in a great location, feels secluded but you are close to all the area attractions. Owners were easy to communicate with via E-mail and/or text. Cabin was clean, well equipped and decorated- the Christmas decorations made it feel even more special.

    We rented this cabin for a friend who came to visit us from overseas. She enjoyed, and was grateful for, the time she spent at Tranquility Knoll. She loved every single detail of the cabin--the decorations, the toys, the rustic and not-so-rustic antiques--and appreciated all the love and attention that has gone into creating such a heartwarming and welcoming space. The owners are wonderful hosts. The space is super clean and cozy. The view is exceptional. And the peace and quiet of the surroundings are incredible for a place that is so close to town. We fully recommend this cabin, and look forward to renting it again in the future.
