About this property

Birdsong Retreat in McKinney

  • Welcome to your trendy 1930s vacation retreat! You are 0.4 miles to McKinney's vibrant Historic Downtown. This mid-century craftsman-style home is tastefully updated while restoring its provincial charms. Authentic shiplap ceilings and modern kitchen with marble countertops & floating shelves. Open & bright living room area. Master Suite with remodeled bath including walk-in-shower. Large secondary bedroom has a vaulted ceiling with exposed wood beams. Third bedroom is a cozy room with a full/twin bunkbed. Full size washer and dryer for longer stays.

    Gas stove and furnished kitchen for gathered meals around large kitchen table.

    Enjoy coffee on the front or back porch, a good conversation around the fire pit in the fenced yard, and a sound night of sleep in beds with memory toppers.

    Excellent food and shopping within a five- ten minute walk. Historic downtown boasts casual to fine dining, locally owned coffee shops and boutiques, a thriving farmer's market on Saturday mornings, festivals and special events throughout the year, and charming neighborhood streets for your morning walk.

High Tea Party

The ladies of my family enjoyed a weekend together which included a High Tea Party. This place was perfect for the setting and spacious enough to accommodate all of us. The pictures of the space are very much the same in person. It was easy to communicate with the host and she was flexible on when I could check in. I would highly recommend for any small gathering!

It's a lovely home, comfortable & the right size for my family. Loved the neighborhood & walking distance from the center of town. And the turkeys were a real added enjoyment. Thank you for the opportunity to stay there.

Wonderful property and stay!

My wife and I came into town on a short business trip, and we absolutely loved staying at this property. It was a well remodeled house, very spacious interior and backyard (great for our two little dogs that we brought with us), and perfect walking distance from Downtown McKinney. We would definitely book here again next time we’re in town.

The host was perfectly communicative and kind! The location was perfect for us since we were at an event in downtown McKinney. And the place was so spacious and clean. The common area was especially spacious. The decor was really nice, too. I highly recommend! Thanks, Lora!
