    This is a beautiful home and property with everything our family needed! The host was wonderful and the house was immaculate with comfortable beds, bedding, towels, furniture and a kitchen with everything we could possibly need. We will definitely stay here again.

    The property was great for our dogs, room to roam but enclosed enough to not worry they’d wander too far. The outdoor fireplace was great for the cool nights we experienced. Everything was tidy and the many light switches were labeled, those that weren’t hidden behind the doors.

    Nice, secluded location. Great floorpan. The outdoor fireplace was perfect for making smores and memories. We were visited by wild turkey and a momma doe and her baby. Will book here again next time I'm in the area.

    The kitchen was beautiful! Lots of counter space. We dipped some strawberries for my daughters wedding at Clark Gardens. The beds were super comfortable and lots of space for the 6 of us to move around. We had left something behind and reaching the host was easy and we retrieved our items. My only request is the kitchen needs a toaster. We may have been unable to find it.

    Our family, with 3 young boys, had an excellent time. The house was beautiful, comfortable and equipped for our needs. We enjoyed the ranch life and time at the river. We also spent a lot of time at Rocker B Ranch. It was an easy and gorgeous drive to and from the baseball complex.

    We had 5 ladies and 2 teens in our girls trip get away and we had the best time. Only complaint is we didn't have enough time at the house...LOL Stephanie was amazing to work with and the house and property is amazing. We will be back. We loved visiting Mineral Wells, such a cute town, we did a ghost walk of The Baker and a ghost hunt, we did shopping in MW and ate at Cocktails and Coffee, highly recommend getting this home for a nice little get away. OHH the beds and pillows are AMAZING.

    Let's be honest, there aren't many vacation rentals that truly live up to the description and pictures on the listing page. This is NOT one of those. Easily the nicest, cleanest, most beautiful, best-equipped home we've stayed at, even after many years of travel and staying at vacation rentals. The views are amazing. It's off the beaten path, but that's part of the charm and well worth it.

    We absolutely loved our stay. The gated neighborhood/ranch was quiet and remote but still convenient to get to town (and Mineral Wells is such a great town with friendly people). The barndo is on the perfect spot to take in the sunrise and the views of the hills. It is new, clean, spacious and well appointed (the listing is very accurate). The river access is so convenient, where you can just sit in the water, cool off, and enjoy. Check in was easy, and owner communicated well. We would gladly stay here again!
