A Little Piece of Infinity Paradise
Come escape to our rustic country retreat — a peaceful place where you can breathe fresh air, listen to the birds sing, and enjoy nature at its finest. Whether you love fishing, hiking through the trees, or simply relaxing outdoors, there’s something here for everyone. Many guests who arrive are truly amazed by the beauty of the house. They often say that photos don’t do it justice because the place is even more stunning in person. The property includes a main house and a cozy cabin, with a swimming pool nestled between them, right next to a small lake. If you book for 3 nights or more, the pool will be exclusively yours during your stay. The cabin can also be rented separately if you need additional space.
One of the special features of the main house is a charming atrium inside, where you’ll find a beautiful tree, a relaxing fountain, and some tables perfect for sitting down in the morning to enjoy a peaceful cup of coffee surrounded by nature.
Main House Layout: First Floor: There are two bedrooms with king-sized beds. One of these rooms also has a sofa bed. There's also a TV room with another sofa bed. Additionally, two folding beds are available on this floor.
Second Floor: There is one bedroom with a queen-sized bed and a pop-up trundle bed (equivalent to two full-size beds). In the living room, there's another sofa bed.
The house is set up to comfortably accommodate three couples, each with two children. There’s a gas barbecue grill and outdoor dining tables — perfect for a small family celebration or a quiet evening meal. Some of the most cherished moments at Infinity Paradise happen at night — sitting outside on the deck in the lakeside kiosk (kioske del lago), watching the stars light up the sky or enjoying the glow of a full moon reflected on the water. And in the early morning, nothing beats a peaceful walk while listening to the birds sing — a perfect way to start the day. We're located just outside the city limits, only 15 minutes from Walmart and other conveniences, so you're never far from anything you might need.
The land is filled with trees and wildlife. We have friendly, domesticated deer on-site, and you may also spot wild hogs. There’s a seasonal creek, several fishing ponds, and plenty of space for ATV

Anchorbase Retreat
19. Anchorbase Retreat
18mi from Rice · 1 site
Anchorbase Retreat is a quiet, low-density countryside camping experience located about one hour from Dallas / the DFW Metroplex. It’s close enough for an easy weekend escape, yet once you arrive, the setting feels distinctly rural—open land, fresh air, wide skies, and a slower pace of life.
The retreat is hosted by a couple fondly called J & N, who grew up around rural farm life and big families that loved welcoming friends and travelers. After years of raising their kids in the city, returning to the countryside felt like coming home. Opening a small portion of the land for camping is their way of sharing the quiet, peace, and space they’ve always valued.
Phase 1 offers a small number of semi-primitive glamping and camping sites, intentionally spaced for privacy and calm. This early phase focuses on a low-impact outdoor experience with thoughtful basics rather than resort-style amenities. Guests should expect a rustic stay designed for rest, simplicity, and connection with nature.
Anchorbase Retreat sits on working agricultural land, and the surrounding countryside is part of the experience. You may see open pastures, wildlife, and hear natural country sounds. Some areas of the property offer views toward Cedar Creek Lake, making it a peaceful place to relax outdoors, enjoy sunsets, and stargaze.
While the setting feels removed and quiet, the retreat is still conveniently located near local attractions and essentials, including King’s Creek Country Club, local restaurants and food spots, grocery stores, a nearby brewery, Zoofari, and Cedar Creek Lake recreation.
Phase 1 is ideal for guests who enjoy nature, value quiet and privacy, and want to unplug without driving far from the city. Amenities will be added gradually in future phases, but this early stage is about starting small and enjoying the land as it is.
Best suited for couples, solo travelers, and small groups seeking a calm, rustic countryside stay close to DFW.

A Little Piece of Infinity Paradise
Come escape to our rustic country retreat — a peaceful place where you can breathe fresh air, listen to the birds sing, and enjoy nature at its finest. Whether you love fishing, hiking through the trees, or simply relaxing outdoors, there’s something here for everyone. Many guests who arrive are truly amazed by the beauty of the house. They often say that photos don’t do it justice because the place is even more stunning in person. The property includes a main house and a cozy cabin, with a swimming pool nestled between them, right next to a small lake. If you book for 3 nights or more, the pool will be exclusively yours during your stay. The cabin can also be rented separately if you need additional space.
One of the special features of the main house is a charming atrium inside, where you’ll find a beautiful tree, a relaxing fountain, and some tables perfect for sitting down in the morning to enjoy a peaceful cup of coffee surrounded by nature.
Main House Layout: First Floor: There are two bedrooms with king-sized beds. One of these rooms also has a sofa bed. There's also a TV room with another sofa bed. Additionally, two folding beds are available on this floor.
Second Floor: There is one bedroom with a queen-sized bed and a pop-up trundle bed (equivalent to two full-size beds). In the living room, there's another sofa bed.
The house is set up to comfortably accommodate three couples, each with two children. There’s a gas barbecue grill and outdoor dining tables — perfect for a small family celebration or a quiet evening meal. Some of the most cherished moments at Infinity Paradise happen at night — sitting outside on the deck in the lakeside kiosk (kioske del lago), watching the stars light up the sky or enjoying the glow of a full moon reflected on the water. And in the early morning, nothing beats a peaceful walk while listening to the birds sing — a perfect way to start the day. We're located just outside the city limits, only 15 minutes from Walmart and other conveniences, so you're never far from anything you might need.
The land is filled with trees and wildlife. We have friendly, domesticated deer on-site, and you may also spot wild hogs. There’s a seasonal creek, several fishing ponds, and plenty of space for ATV

Anchorbase Retreat
19. Anchorbase Retreat
18mi from Rice · 1 site
Anchorbase Retreat is a quiet, low-density countryside camping experience located about one hour from Dallas / the DFW Metroplex. It’s close enough for an easy weekend escape, yet once you arrive, the setting feels distinctly rural—open land, fresh air, wide skies, and a slower pace of life.
The retreat is hosted by a couple fondly called J & N, who grew up around rural farm life and big families that loved welcoming friends and travelers. After years of raising their kids in the city, returning to the countryside felt like coming home. Opening a small portion of the land for camping is their way of sharing the quiet, peace, and space they’ve always valued.
Phase 1 offers a small number of semi-primitive glamping and camping sites, intentionally spaced for privacy and calm. This early phase focuses on a low-impact outdoor experience with thoughtful basics rather than resort-style amenities. Guests should expect a rustic stay designed for rest, simplicity, and connection with nature.
Anchorbase Retreat sits on working agricultural land, and the surrounding countryside is part of the experience. You may see open pastures, wildlife, and hear natural country sounds. Some areas of the property offer views toward Cedar Creek Lake, making it a peaceful place to relax outdoors, enjoy sunsets, and stargaze.
While the setting feels removed and quiet, the retreat is still conveniently located near local attractions and essentials, including King’s Creek Country Club, local restaurants and food spots, grocery stores, a nearby brewery, Zoofari, and Cedar Creek Lake recreation.
Phase 1 is ideal for guests who enjoy nature, value quiet and privacy, and want to unplug without driving far from the city. Amenities will be added gradually in future phases, but this early stage is about starting small and enjoying the land as it is.
Best suited for couples, solo travelers, and small groups seeking a calm, rustic countryside stay close to DFW.

Cody and Ingrid were very friendly. The property was lovely. I camped on site #1 which is by the pond. You get serenaded by frogs in the night which is pleasant. I only stayed one night, but wish I would have stayed another night since it was very relaxing especially during long driving trip.

The campsites were easy to get to. Lots of land to explore. Randall was very kind and accommodating. The kids had a blast. They made dances with a mimicking emu near the entrance. We had a blast. Nice to get outside not too far out of Dallas. Can’t wait to visit again when the weather is warmer and try paddling gear and visit the safari nearby.

We loved camping here. This may be the best place you can camp that is less than an hour from downtown Dallas. Randall is an excellent host. Trails for small hikes with dogs and kids and a couple of ponds. Lots of wildlife. There is a safari place right across the street which is closed in the winter but we could see some of the animals walking around by the road. It was very cold and Randall had plenty of firewood at the site. Look forward to coming back in the summer when we can play in the lake and explore more.

Absolutely awesome! Beautiful property and Barry was an outstanding host. He went above and beyond to take care of us, and the value of our time there greatly exceeded the cost. We were going to be getting in late and it was going to be a super cold night, and because he had no other guests that night, he graciously offered to let us stay in the Daisy at no extra cost! This would never be an expectation, but it was very kind of him. It was very clean and obviously well taken care of. We wish we had more time there to hang out and soak it more up, but this was just a quick trip passing through for us. We hope to visit again sometime soon!

My family with 2 very young children came and stayed in January. It wasn’t supposed to rain or be as cold as it ended up being but Mrs Judy made sure we were comfortable and okay. We will most definitely be going back. We not only adored the llamas but Mrs Judy as well. She treated us like her own family!

Beautiful and private! We stayed at camp site #4 because we read it was the most private our of all of them. With that though, it was the farthest from the bath house and a bit of a hike to get there (about 6-7 min walk), so we just drove if we really had to go or when it got dark and cold at night. We wished we could have stayed longer to explore the hiking paths and will definitely be back!

The entire grounds was a haven for us. My granddaughter & I came for the weekend and camped at site 4, which we loved! We hiked 1.6 miles and still didn’t get to explore all the trails. It was serene, quiet and I felt safe. We could hear cows, cocks & a train in the distance. The road to the campsites felt like you are going through a maze with the tall, bordered grass. We are so grateful that Allison has opened up her land to let us enjoy a wonderful getaway. We will be coming back for a treehouse stay in the spring, hopefully we’ll get a chance to paddleboat since it was filled with muddy water. That was what attracted me to the hideout with a little one. But our main reason for getting out to that area was to visit a state park which was full so this was the perfect & better place to stay.
The bathhouse!!! Oh, the beautiful bathhouse! Even my 7 year old was fascinated by the visual elements… now I want one just like it!

A beautiful property with several camping spots, all seemingly 50 yards apart, so it felt very private, secluded, beautiful sunsets, and the Llamas were a fun thing to do for my son.
There were add-on options at checkout for llama feed, smore and hot dog kits, which I felt were all very fairly priced. Check-in was easy and communication was great. Highly recommend!
