This was the perfect place to unwind! No frills but had everything we needed except the Wi-fi was spotty. The hosts were so kind and accommodating. We got to snuggle some newborn puppies, had firewood delivered to us at the fire pit and came home w farm fresh eggs. Great little get away!

Very Quaint

Nice location, away from town. The cabin was nice and cool inside with some lovely sunflowers out front. Took us a while to find the dumpster for the trash but once we found it, we didn’t have any other issues. Great place and recommend staying here.

Peaceful Getaway

After a couple of years of health issues and a ling school year this was the perfect place to chill. Out in the country ,but close enough for shopping, Granbury Opera House to see Newsies, dinner and of course shopping. Perfect for lazy mornings and afternoon naps. I want to come back and bring our basset to roam the property.

Grands enjoyed the adventure

Short trip with grands who thoroughly enjoyed the area. Rocks, river, dinosaurs. Convenient to activities but secluded and quiet for down time. We didn't cook, other than hot dog on the fire pit so kitchenwas fine for coffee and snacks. A little confusion at check in but no big deal and all handled well. thanks!

Perfect getaway

We (myself and 2 friends) were attending an equestrian event in the area and were looking for lodging close by with a little character. And we found just that. The cabin we stayed in was perfect for the three of us. It was an easy check in process. The cabin was clean and had all the amenities we needed for the weekend stay. We will definitely book it again.

We enjoyed our time at the cabin. It was very peaceful and tranquil. It was clean and nice. The only thing that went wrong was the ceiling fan and light in the bedroom did not work. other than, it was very pleasant.

Great little cabin in Rainbow

We went to the area for spring break to visit Dinosaur Valley State Park. We chose this little cabin for our family as it was just the right size for us and our two boys. The accommodations were nice. It worked well for us as it was a place to stay, cook, and shower. We enjoyed the fire pit and a hike up the hill to the swings. Overall, this property worked for what we needed for an our short stay for spring break. Suggestions: We brought items to grill but the gas grill wasn’t usable as it was missing the heat plates to distribute the flame. We used the oven instead.

Slice of heaven

If you are looking for a stay at a quiet country setting this is The place. The cabin is a charming and cozy cabin that feels very welcoming. The bed and sofa and eazy chair were the most comfortable ones I have ever used. The river was so beautiful and relaxing. The night sky will not disappoint either. Mornings were very tranquil and visits from neighboring wildlife we so neat. This was a great place to stay! The property manager was great and promptly took care of any questions we had. We are greatfull we got to stay here and Definitely will be back!

Cabin get a way is our therapy.

My best friend and I had 2 days of peace and quiet except for the birds. It was exactly what we were looking for. We so enjoyed our coffee on the porch. It was a short distance to the river and a very nice place to fish and/or picnic. We have never been treated as well at any other cabins. Fresh eggs and just picked spinach? Doesn't get any better. Inside the cabin was great. The a/c worked great, the water was hot and the bed was really comfortable. Would definitely recommend and already looking at the calendar to see when we can go back. Thank you so much for the wonderful hospitality.
