Hempstead, Texas
This welcoming 3-bedroom, 2 full bath country farm is a great place to relax and unwind. Property is located 3 miles from the Waller County Fair Grounds, which is famous for local rodeos, concerts and other events. At night, gather around the fire pit, while the grill master prepares your favorites on the outdoor gas grill. For dessert, enjoy roasting s’mores while sitting under the clearest sky in Texas. In the spring, the beautiful bluebonnets in the area will take your breath away. This country home offers additional outdoor activities including horseback riding which needs to be scheduled in advance of your stay. Please refer to rules and policies - house rules on the app for additional information &/or to schedule. Property has a huge backyard lol so there is plenty of room to skeet shoot. Bring your fancy clay thrower or the farm’s thrower can be provided, if arranged in advance through Management & Farm Manager. Please refer to rules and policies - house rules on the app for this information as well. Guests may bring their own horses, bicycles and ATVs for additional outdoor activities.
The outdoor area has a 4 stall barn, 2 paddocks, 2 pastures and a few acres of groomed front, sides and back yard areas around the home. These groomed areas are perfect for kids to play without worrying about the Horses or Cows because they are in the pastures which are fenced.
Feel free to bring some bite size carrot or apple snacks for the Horses. The Guests love the experience and the Horses love the snacks. Don’t forget to pick up some fireworks to celebrate your stay and offer moments of elevation to your Guests that will create happy memories that will last a lifetime.

Wished we could have stayed longer. It's a Beautiful home and the property is as well. We are planning on returning
We've stayed at several VRBO rentals and this was by far the cleanest. Home was well stocked with supplies. We felt at home. Closest grocery store in Hempstead had everything we needed. If you plan to walk down the road, many dogs will come out to greet you. The horses like apples!
Nice house with great AC - then, a cold front moved in and it also has a great heater!! We wanted 2 weeks of post-surgery quiet. We lived in the living room. Very comfortable. Enjoyed seeing the horses everyday. The master bath was also important for us, and it was terrific. The property owner was very responsive, anytime I called. Thanks, Van
We enjoyed our stay. Easy check in process. Horses were a nice touch. Communication with owner was great.
For sure the place itself was very relaxing with a nice view but there were big issues with the management. First issue was with the property was the cleaning. Beddings were not clean enough and you would notice dirt and hair on all blankets and sheets. We decided to wash them before using them but the drier was broken. The place is for 6 people. We rented the place for 2 nights but there were only one toilet paper for each bathroom and 1 dishwasher pod in the whole place, No extra blankets either. We still were ok with all of these issues but the main issue was about the promises that are mentioned about the property. In the description of the property it says there is a opportunity for horseback riding and skeet shooting and those were the main reasons that we choose this place over the others. We tried multiple times to contact the owner but beside the basic check in messages we didn't received any response. Before we locate there, they mentioned there will be someone called John who is the horse caretaker guy and he can help guests with horseback riding but he never showed up. The phone that was provided was automatically rejecting us. Even one of the neighbors contacted him and told us that he is on his way to your farm but surprisingly we never saw him. We felt very disappointed and disrespected. In summary, I should say it is a good farm for relaxation but if you want to have any other outdoor activities that are mentioned in the descriptions, you should consider somewhere else. Also, don't get surprised if your messages were left un responded. Finally, if you ever saw John, send him our hi, we were really looking forward to meet him!
The house is absolutely perfect. The place is spotless and very well kept. The view... BREATHTAKING! Pictures don’t do it justice at all. The beds were super comfortable, the kitchen was equipped with everything you need, and the patio is so peaceful. We were worried about privacy, but let me tell you, this place is SOOOO private. During the day we really enjoyed hanging out in the back watching and petting the horses, and at night sitting around the firepit making smores and watching the stars and the moon with the telescope. Thank you so much, Tiffanie, for getting us the firepit just in time for the 34-degree night, that totally made our nights! Beginning to End total enjoyment, beyond expectations. Thank you so much for a great experience!
Easy, clean and welcoming. Great experience.
This was the perfect getaway for our daughter’s birthday wish to go horseback riding. House was more than big enough, and had everything we possibly needed. Horses were very gentle, friendly, and great to ride for a beginner or more. House is quietly situated in the country with wide open spaces and plenty of stars in the night sky. Variety of attractions, great restaurants, and well stocked groceries within a 10 min radius of the property, we suggest Cochran’s Grill. Do not forget carrots and apples for the horses, and s’mores supplies for the fire.
A relaxing and beautiful property to enjoy quality family time. We played games, fed the horses, enjoyed the well appointed kitchen, grilling out and several smore nights by the firepit! Caretakers were friendly and attentive and owner was great with communicating!
Great Location, Peaceful, good layout, good communication with the Manager. However, the house needs a lot of work/updating (leak under kitchen sink, roof leaks, wall paper peeling in the Bathroom, light bulbs out throughout). Washable items were clean and no trash was laying around. However, the floors could use a good scrubbing. WIFI directions and emergency contacts in the instructions need to be updated. Overall good place and accepts Pets but the Owner's need to give the house some attention.
