Family Reunion
Big smiles and warm hearts
Wonderful weekend
Great Vacation Place
Third Time at this Texas Paradise
Beautiful Place to Make Memories
Family Reunion Three-peat
We had three generations from age 1 to 71 and there was something for everyone. Whether talking in the comfortable living room, eating at the large table, or watching wildlife from the covered porch we left our busy schedules behind. Swimming, playing basketball, or walking to the bluff to experience the sunset was a great opportunity to bond in fresh ways. Even though we enjoyed being together, the privacy of the comfortable and clean bedrooms helped us relax at the end of the day.
It was awesome to be together and our spirits soared in this uplifting environment. Thank you for making it available to us. We highly recommend it to others.
