The Space:
This unique home started as a 40' shipping container. Our build company, CargoHome, insulates and panels the interior in pine shiplap and trim it out in 100+ year-old barn wood. The outside is clad with cedar siding, spaced to allow the original container to still be seen. The fun rooftop deck is surrounded by a custom cable railing system and lit with LED lights that gives the deck a beautiful glow at night. LED lights inside and a super-quiet, efficient mini-split AC unit makes this a comfortable, energy efficient space.

My husband and I enjoyed our stay. Cozy little place! Very clean. Loved seeing the horses in the field across from the property. They have a little market in the neighborhood with homemade icecream. Reminded me of Little House on the Prairie days! It was amazing!
My husband and I spent a night at one of the units they had and it was such a cool experience. It was our first time staying in a container home and the accommodation was fabulous. Everything was clean and they provided a lot of travel size stuff for the bathrooms. It had everything we needed for a quick weekend getaway. One minor con that we had was that there were 4-5 flies in the container and it was quite the hassle to get rid of them. Other than that, we would definitely come back again!
Staying here feels like a slice of heaven. Very quite and peaceful while feel completely comfy and at home. Enjoy a cup of coffee while sitting on the rooftop and relaxing. We’re beyond happy with our stay and hope to visit again
Great place to stay, quiet, and peaceful. Not far from fast food/restaurants.
Such a fun place to stay- if you haven't ever tried a container home do it!
Couch and queen mattress had multiple large stains. Would not consider this five star quality.
First time in a tiny home and it exceeded all of our expectations! From cleanliness to thoughtful amenities and beautiful decor, not to mention peaceful surroundings… we will definitely be back. Highly recommend!
Pecan Grove was a great stay.
It was such a beautiful place to wake up to and sit on the roof and drink a cup of coffee! Even on a cold morning it warms the heart! Horses in the fields and lots of birds and other wildlife! ??
I’ve been eyeing this property for awhile and finally had the opportunity to book for a quick visit. Our unit was just as promised! Fun, stylish decor. Super clean! All the comforts of home in a little tiny package.
