Summary: It was great to be able to go relax here after work. It was our home away from home. Dee was a great host each time we stayed!!
susan b. Nov 2, 2025 08:42:17 PM
Summary: The amenities were superb. It’s a great place to get away from the city and enjoy nature.
Kelly S. Oct 6, 2025 09:10:37 PM
Summary: Great host!! Dee was so easy to work with. The Bunkhouse was the best place to be after a long hard day of work!! Will definitely stay there again if the need arises.

Summary: This barndominium was great. It is one big open space inside except the very nice bathroom and a somewhat secluded loft. The kitchenette has a Keurig style coffeemaker and there was a great selection of pods to choose from.The outside seating is comfy and has some great lighting and a little fountain. We took walks every morning and evening along the property's gravel roads and sometimes the two horses would come up to sniff us and allow us to pet them. The dog Tigg visited often. If all that sounds good to you and you'll be visiting the area, I highly recommend selecting this location.I will leave a few notes below but do NOT let them talk you out of booking here.First, I wish there was an actual address instead of a dropped pin (sent via text a day or so before the trip) to help find the place. I wasn't able to get any help from my Garmin, and cell phone service is spotty.Also, the place needs some curtains. The window on one side faces the main house. The owners might not know, but some of us have a fear of uncovered windows at night.The listing could be edited to make sure it's more clear that there is no oven or range. There is a microwave and fridge, though. A toaster oven would be a good addition. Until then, I suggest bringing a pressure cooker.Also, the listing said there were games. That was only nominally true since almost every game was missing key components (e.g. Yahtzee with no dice) and all were in disarray. We had fun organizing them instead.

Summary: We had a fabulous time at the Big D ranch! The property is beautiful and we loved being able to say hello to the horses and Tigg the dog. Hosts were super kind to leave a few food items in the fridge and made sure we had plenty of fresh water to drink since they are on a well system. There is plenty of space inside and an excellent fire pit. The cowboy pool shown in some of the listed pictures is no longer there, but it didn’t affect our enjoyment of the BnB at all. Highly recommend - we will be back!

Summary: The property and setting was so beautiful and serene. The perfect place to get away to relax and enjoy the outdoors. DeLynn and Reid were incredible hosts and so accommodating.
Marsha W. Nov 18, 2024 11:59:28 PM
Summary: Comfortable beds, house had everything we needed, and the property was beautiful. We would stay here again if we are ever in the area again.
Craig C. Nov 5, 2024 12:42:03 PM
Summary: My adult son and I booked 4 days while we were in Austin for the Formula 1 weekend @ COTA. The house itself was great. Plenty of space and furniture to be comfortable inside and out. Fire pits with plenty of wood available. Accessories for cooking over fire pit also. Beds and furniture are comfy. Bathroom is modern and clean (great shower). House is only 10-15 minutes out of town (wal mart and grocery store). If I am ever again in need of a place to stay in southern Texas I know where I'm staying.
Marcy B. Nov 21, 2023 10:26:13 PM
Summary: This is a great property!
Valerie A. Jul 3, 2023 09:44:58 PM
Summary: The property was exactly as described. It is beautiful and peaceful. Everything was clean, well maintained and so many thoughtful touches have been added. Great place for couples and families alike. The kind host was quick to respond. Would definitely stay again if I were in the area.
