Ouachita Mountains Luxury Retreat on 40+ acres with Pool, Hot Tub, WiFi

Welcome to Your Ultimate Getaway
Hello and welcome! We are Doug and Jacki Alexander, the proud owners of this stunning property. Five years ago, we had the honor of purchasing this home from R.C. Smith, whose family has cherished this land for over a century. R.C. built this home in the heart of a working cattle ranch, and for more than five years, he shared it with guests through VRBO (VRBO #754008).
While we weren’t raised here, we feel a deep connection to the property throughthe rich stories and history R.C. has shared with us. Our own roots run deep in cattle ranching, stretching back generations in the Texas Panhandle. We invite you to experience the same peace, beauty, and sense of belonging that make this place truly special.
To our returning guests, we say a heartfelt THANK YOU and WELCOME BACK! And to those discovering this retreat for the first time, WELCOME! We hope you’ll fall in love with the peaceful surroundings, create lasting memories, and make this your new favorite escape.
SPECIAL NOTE: While our summer bookings show a four-night minimum, shorter stays may be available between reservations. If you're interested in a shorter visit, just send us an inquiry with your preferred dates, and we’ll do our best to accommodate you with a special quote. Currently 4 night minimum in Summer and 2 night minimum in off- season.
