Third-Floor Loft
The open third-floor loft overlooks the game room and provides additional sleeping space for up to 5 guests, with a king-size bed and three twin beds, including one pop-up trundle.
Because of the roofline, the outer edges of the loft have lower head clearance of approximately 5'3", while the center reaches approximately 6'7", providing plenty of standing room.
Please note: The loft is directly beneath the metal roof, so rain can be quite loud during storms. Light sleepers may prefer one of the lower-level sleeping accommodations.
Outdoor Area
Step outside and gather around the fire pit, or play some cornhole and grill out under the covered outdoor area. Your crew can enjoy the peaceful country setting while grilling some hotdogs and lounging in our comfortable rocking lounge chairs. We have several outdoor games available under the 1,200 square foot covered space. It’s a great place to watch the sunrise or unwind in the evening after a full day of games and activities.
The Texas Fun House offers a one-of-a-kind getaway where you can relax, play, or enjoy nonstop entertainment. Our recreation barn was designed for spending quality time together and making memories with your favorite people.
