We enjoyed our two nights stay in the tiny home. It was very clean and quiet out in the country. Would definitely stay there again if I’m back down in the area.

Our stay
We had a wonderful time. Home was very clean and the pool and hot tub was fabulous. Our kids and grandkids had a great time swimming for most of the day we were there.
First off, the place was immaculate! Theo was such a great and helpful hostess. The spot was nice and secluded enough while being super close to both Whitney and Hillsboro. It is a hidden gem in my opinion.
We stayed two days at the beginning of August before my youngest goes to college. The property is very conveniently located almost halfway between Hillsboro and Lake Whitney. The entire property is gorgeous. Exactly as described and pictured. Extremely comfortable for 4 adults. Clean and obviously well taken care of. Its a very quiet and secluded location. Amenities are fantastic. We emjoyed the pool and cooking out.

Perfect!!
Two groups, one from Austin and the other from Dallas, met at the Whitney retreat for the weekend. It was secluded, quiet, and couldn't have been better as a halfway point. The two houses provide privacy as needed. The pool temp was perfect, and the grounds were impeccably clean. The lighting on the property was great for evening dining and swimming. The beds and linens are comfortable, the homes are climate controlled, and road tripping to Waco for dinner one night was an easy trip to make. Everything is well appointed, and overall it's just a very pleasant and beautiful property. And surprisingly no issues with mosquitoes.
