Come to the Country and Stay a Spell
Luxurious vacation home, elegantly furnished and appointed. Privately located on 57 acres in North central Texas. Secluded gated setting in the Eastern Cross Timbers and the bottom lands of the Brazos River, it is a home to wildlife and birds. Enjoy rural life with fishing, stargazing, adventure … or just relaxing.
La Casa. Tierra. Encantada.
Unique architecture where house and earth are one. La Casa Tierra is tucked into the hillside and fused with nature. A deep porch sets the stage for rocking chairs and your own private Texas sunrises. A standing seam metal roof promises that rainstorms will be a symphony! Sit a spell by the pond with a fishing pole — don’t let the big one get away. An unforgettable experience, but you won’t know that until you stay with us!
The Great Room
As wide open as Texas, the open floor plan mingles sofa/recliners (and sofa bed) with game tables, a bar area, big-screen television and a spacious fireplace. A rustic dining table seats 10! Carefully chosen artwork, brindle cowhide rugs, windmill blade ceiling fans and Southwest decor say Home, Home on the Range.
La Cocina
It’s a home away from home. Stainless refrigerator with ice-maker, microwave oven, electric cooktop and convection oven, dishwasher, and toaster oven. We provide all dishes, glassware, utensils, and cookware. Additionally, you’ll find cabinets stocked with cleaning supplies, towels and some basic condiments.
Bedroom/Bathroom Accommodations
Four bedrooms will accommodate 10, with perhaps an extra small child or two in the bunk beds. The master suite has a loveseat and day bed, television, and adjoining private full bath. The king bedroom has a private bath across the hall. The twins and bunks bedrooms share a bath across the hall.
The Great Outdoors
Soak Your Bones
Find our hot tub down the path to a lovely oak mott setting. Enjoy a plunge (accommodates 8 friends!) when the Stars at Night are Big and Bright.
Shady Gazebo
A few good friends. A cooler of beer or some Texas sweet tea. A great place to spend the afternoon or evening. Beautifully lit after dark, too.
The Firepit
What cowboy doesn’t like an old-fashioned campfire for spinning yarns and warming toes. Ours is propane gas, so no log chopping is required.
Let the Games Begin!
Feeling sporting? You’ll find the Great Room stocked with checkers, dominoes, cards, puzzles, Scrabble and other board games. Outside, near the fire pit and gazebo, we have a horseshoe pit and cornhole. But if you’re thinking “crossword puzzles” — you’ve gotta bring your own!
