Amazing stay
OMG! We absolutely loved this house. Each one of us had our own bedrooms, there were two kitchens and bathrooms which worked great for four women. Walking distance to the water, human sized chess board that was fun to play, goats and bunnies eating grass in the yard, we even saw deer. I would definitely stay here again and the history of the house is great to learn about as well.

Lovely!
We just adored our stay in the Prairie House, and will be back in the Fall. Our kids had the most wonderful time. The beds were extra cozy.

Great for kids
Loved the location & the kids loved the farm animals. House is sweet old farmhouse but needs better amenities such as dishes & working internet. Tv in living room doesn’t work except for movies (rusty old remote). House is setup to sleep 8 but only has dishes for 2 & only half the house gets cooled by the a/c. Internet very inconvenient as I was assured I would be able to work while there but never did have a connection. The house itself was pretty & the few dishes had to be washed before use. Would be a great relaxing getaway if you didn’t have to spend the first day of vacation cleaning. Would be a great remote working location if they could get their internet accessible. Kids loved it….

Great Properties
We took our granddaughters, they had a wonderful time. Exploring the grounds and the animals. The bunnies were there favorite. Big Rocks very close by . The town of Glen Rose right at your back door. The Prairie House is where we stayed. Clean and tidy. Everything for a great stay. Will certainly visit in the near future.
