Weekend Trip to Treehouse on the Creek

Steve was a wonderful gracious host. The treehouse was splendid. The trails are a nice short walk with plenty of critters. At night it looks beautiful seeing the fireflies fill the horizon. I only stayed a night but it was a lovely experience. Steve was very helpful and kind.

Weekend Trip to Waterfront Hideaway Ranch

Waterfront Hidaway Ranch was a welcome reprieve after a long day of driving through Houston and Dallas rushing hour traffic. The cool evening lake breeze, the beautiful morning sunrise....and a fresh load of laundry reset us for the rest of our journey

Weekend Trip to Treehouse on the Creek

Steve was great! It rained the day before we came and he took the time to let us know it probably wouldn’t be so comfortable with all the mud and accommodated us in the town near by until it dried overnight! He’s super friendly and we enjoyed our stay! The property is amazing is great for a get away!

Weekend Trip to Camp Tonkawa Woods & Horse Camp

Nice place. April was very accommodating. There was too much wind to say in the Teepee. We camped in tents. There was too much wind to use the water, we flew kites. We had a great time, but we were very flexible. Keep an open mind and you'll have fun, too!

1 night at Camp Tonkawa Woods & Horse Camp

April has made such a neat space only an hour from Dallas. My kids got to ride horses and actually learn how to work with them (vs. just walking in a line) - they LOVED it. Thank you April.

Weekend Trip to Texoma Woods

Do you dream of being able to fish from your front door? The bell tent is truly the most perfect place to stay. Staying on the dock, the water rocks you to sleep. It is about 15 minutes to the Walmart from location! All in all, the most beautiful property, the kindest hosts, and the most convenient location to camp without fear of forgetting a necessity or two. We will absolutely be back!

Weekend Trip to Texoma Woods

My lovely girlfriend and I decided we needed some time away after a busy month at work so we booked the yurt on Carlos’s land. Let me start off by saying it surpassed our expectations and we had a great experience. They provided a wood stove for the inside of the yurt that kept us very warm through the day and night. He and his wife were a delight and checked in on us to see how everything was which was very kind! If you are having any doubts on booking the yurt we’ll let me put your mind at ease! It is 100% worth it

Weekend Trip to Camp Tonkawa Woods & Horse Camp

My 2 boys (8 and 10) had a blast. One of their favorite hip camps yet. We fished both ponds, rode horses and walked the trails. April was a gracious host and very patient and informative while teaching the boys some basics of horseback riding. Will definitely be coming back. Thank you for hosting us, April!

Weekend Trip to Camp Tonkawa Woods & Horse Camp

We brought our small RV and Tent and were in Tent Camping site 1 which had a picnic table, water and the restrooms were nearby. We went to the nearby Aubrey Oaks Alpaca Farm in the morning, (be sure to make reservations in advance), then went hiking on the Randy Bell Scenic Trail at Ray Roberts Isle du Bois State Park and then returned to camp for archery and enjoyed smores and campfire stories at the large campfire area. The campsite didn't have much in the way of shade, so consider bringing your own canopy or tarp. If you plan to go horseback riding or archery, be sure to coordinate with the host in advance and bring carrots to feed the horses. Great camping experience with the grandkids!

This place was awesome and we wish we could’ve stayed longer! Steve is so welcoming and goes above and beyond for his guests. We were planning on staying nearby and are so thankful for choosing this place. The place was perfect and beautiful. Would totally recommend!

3 nights at Tin Can Acres

Tin Can Acres was absolutely perfect. We spent three nights and enjoyed every single second! We took advantage of the fire pit and had a fire one evening, we cooked our meals in the kitchen and found everything we needed. I even took a relaxing hot bath one night as it stormed outside - it was heaven! We borrowed a few records and listened to them throughout our stay. This place is pure magic! We will be back.
