The Retreat

It was a beautiful secluded and spacious property. Our family enjoyed the weekend and it was a wonderful place to relax and grill outdoors after long days outdoors at the nearby SCCA racing venue. We definitely recommend the property and will stay there again in years to come!

Beautiful place!

I don’t think the pictures or description adequately describes how very cool this place is. You think you are in the middle of nowhere and then this lovely home is situated right by an amazing botanical park. We were here for a wedding and there was plenty of room for everyone and great large spaces for us all to gather together. It was also so interesting to read about the history of the house and the gardens. Would definitely recommend!

Outside Grounds Need Care

other than the thousands of rolly polly bugs and the scorpion that was killed in the bathroom, the house was GORGEOUS! It was obvious that the owners must leave for guests as there was too much personal hygiene products in the showers and other areas of the house. TX had alot of rain prior but the caretakers need to clean up the patio area prior to guest arrival. The seat cushions were covered in green moss and the pool was a bit dirty. The outside area was peaceful until we killed the tarantula by poolside. The area is definitely 'off the beaten path' and peaceful but the caretakers could make this experience far nicer to bring cushions in.
