Dee Dee's B&B

I obviously take advantage of living in the country and enjoying the peace and quiet of everyday living that it provides! So many people enjoy coming out here and just unplugging and unwinding. I know my property won't disappoint if you decide to stay in the fully equipped cabin or if you just pitch a tent under the whispering pines. The ponds are fully stocked with bass, bream and catfish, so fun to catch and you can even keep your catch and cook them over your own campfire. The canopy of stars and chirping frogs will lull you to sleep in the privacy of this secluded campsite.

Seven Acres Campground

We moved to our seven acres in 1999 and have spent 15 years building the campground and furnishing the cabins with antiques specific to the era they are named after. It’s like getting to spend the night in your favorite part of a museum! The Fireman’s Bunker, WWII Room and the Victorian Room along with a claw foot rub to soak in!

We love to make thing like home for our guests!

There are modern conveniences like t.v. and air conditioning/heaters with a fridge too

This is the Laundry Room with washer and dryer, Keurig for coffee and tea (with a wide range of choices), a microwave and mugs and "go" cups. Hopefully everything you need!!

The Shower House is just a few feet away from all of the cabins with loads of towels, shampoo and soap along with bath salts and loads of other stuff you might not load up for your trip.

There is an "Occupied" sign you can stand up outside when you are using the facility.

Savannah’s Events @ Flyin H

The Flying H Ranch is owned and operated by Harlan and Sharon Ray. They have owned the ranch since 1995 when “H” retired from the Air Force. The Rays operate the ranch not only to run cattle, hay and horses but it is also an event venue and vacation cabin rental. The Rays, along with their children and grandchildren are seventh generation farmers and ranchers and would LOVE to share their ranch with you.Learn more about this land:Open area on working ranch. Positioned by a small lake with catch and release fishing. Hiking and riding trails available. Private, secure, peaceful location  

The view driving in to the campsite (excuse the trailer, we are doing some work in the barn, but it will not be there on a regular basis)

Hip campers will have to drive around the barn to get to our little camp site (please don’t let our ranch life equipment scare you off)

This our ranch entry. When you come go straight through the gate and take the first left. You will see the barn and the drive way beside it (take that and it will lead you to our campsite :)

Shadow, Dash and Shorty Ray are always around to brighten up your day

This is a picture of the campsite from the pond dam. The campsite is where you see the 2 round hay keepers off in the background. 

Wood Hill and Meadows

Hello and thanks for checking out our property. We love sharing the woods with our friends and family Come out and see why.Learn more about this land:We are located in the Piney Woods of East Texas. Our land has tons of hiking, fishing, bird watching, MTB(old dirt roads), we have big open meadows and windy hills.

Bruce’s Land

Our homestead is a few acres in East Texas, near Hawkins. The land has been untouched for about 30 years, maybe last used for cattle grazing. We're keeping the property as natural as possible, we live here off-grid and off-pipe.

There’s a 17 acre lake that we share with neighbors. It’s full of bass, bluegill, crappie and catfish, we encourage catch and keep fishing since the lake could use a little fishing pressure. We also have a beaver pond, and resident beaver. 

Some of the wildlife we see regularly: fireflies, turtles, cardinals, bluejays, hummingbirds, kite birds, frogs, opossums, armadillos, beaver, river otter, road runners and rabbits. These plants live here too: Beautyberry, Dewberry, Pokeberry, Sparkleberry, Dogfennel, Dogwood, Yaupon Holly, Holly, Wax Myrtle, Sassafras , Lyreleaf Sage, Carolina Crane’s bill, Coral Honeysuckle, Western White Honeysuckle, Smooth Cat’s Ear, Daisy Fleabane, Prairie Onion, Mullein, Summer Grape, Water Lily. The entire water lily plant is edible, did you know?

Swim, hang out, cool down on the small swimming dock. Canoe and kayak included! Based on shared availability, we have 1 two person canoe, and 3 kayaks for use on our lake free of charge. There are smaller size adult life jackets and oars/paddles. Bring your own life jackets for kids.

Contrary to local rumor lol, we are not a “nudist resort”. But it is true that one of our campsites is very private, so one could dress any way they wanted while at that campsite. 

About the Bees

Please do not bring or use any insect killer or insect repellent other than what you apply to your own body. We have several honey bee colonies living here and our neighbor keeps bees as well. For the safety and health of our bees, the use of man made insect killers or repellents on the ground, in the air or on the foliage is absolutely not allowed. One natural remedy is diatomaceous earth. Sprinkled on the ground, it does a good job at keeping ants and crawling creatures away. 

Brookshire's in Hawkins less than 4 miles away if you need supplies.

Verizon, ATT users have cell coverage here, no signal for T-Mobile users.

LGBTQ+ friendly.

We have a small swimming dock with a ladder
