Lakefront Guest Ranch Retreat w/Kayaks/Fishing/Pools/RecCourt/FarmAnimals

Remodeled Private Lakehouse- 15 bedrooms/12.5 baths, 2 full kitchens, coffee bar & 2 dining/living areas, artisian springs fed creeks & 25 acre lake w/2 story boat dock & fishing pier. The Perfect home for your family gathering or retreat. Conveniently located 15 minutes from Waco, The Lakehouse is a jewel for those looking to spend quality time team building time or enjoying friends & family. Relaxing outdoors, fishing, kayaking or sitting by the campfire telling stories, you won’t be disappointed. If you are looking for a unique spot for a most memorable occasion. With our picturesque 1000 acre Resort Ranch, you won’t find anything quite so wonderful anywhere in Texas! There are huge pecan, oak, cottonwood & cypress trees that enhance the beautiful creeks, ponds & lakes scattered around the property. Words can't quite describe this Oasis.

Early settlers established a Gristmill onsite because of its many natural Artesian spring fed waterfalls that now naturally cascade into breathtaking creeks along the Cypress lined waterways that are filled with fish. The ideal location for any large gathering of friends, family or businesses looking for a gorgeous hideaway that can offer such a wide variety of activities for everyone to enjoy. The spring fed lake is famous locally for trophy Bass as well as a plethora of perch, crappie and catfish. Activities include a full basketball/tennis court, sand volleyball court, nature trails at every turn and farm animals; donkeys, ponies, goats, pigs, longhorns, highlanders, chickens and ducks. There is also an abundance of deer, turkey, water fowl, raccoons, squirrels and every other natural species of animal that you would expect to see in its natural habitat. The backdrop of this place is so beautiful its truly hard to capture in pictures.

Must stay for large groups
We hosted our office summer retreat here and every detail was perfect. The house fit our group of 35 comfortably under one roof. We enjoyed kayaking, exploring the nature trails and beating the heat at the spring fed pool. Zane and Kristi were so accommodating and were just a text away if we needed anything. Everyone had a wonderful time away from the city and we can’t wait to rebook next year! Can’t recommend enough!

Beautiful Property
The pictures just don't do this property justice! We rented the house for a work retreat/training and everyone was blown away. The rooms are all spread out with individual locks on each room for privacy. So much to do that everyone didn't want to leave. From feeding the baby goats, petting the miniature horses to taking the small boat out for fishing everyone had a great time. Zane the owner was very helpful and accommodating!

Family trip
This place was amazing! The kids had so much fun swimming, kayaking, fishing and exploring! We had 35 people there and it still had room for way more. The property manager was awesome and great people to talk with. One of the best features is privacy. You are not right on top of other people and you can really enjoy spending family time with everyone. The house was perfect and very comfortable. I would recommend this ranch to everyone.

Best family reunion ever!
This place really does have it all! The newly remodeled inn was perfect for our entire family. It had more bedrooms than I could count, and everyone had their own private bathrooms. This place was secluded on 200 acres & was perfect for every age group in our family. We had some who went fishing, others went exploring and swam in the natural spring- fed pool, while others played with and fed the sweet farm animals. None of us were bored to say the least. This place gave us a much needed retreat from the city life. We will definitely be returning for another getaway. I can honestly say this is the most beautiful & magical place I’ve ever seen. Pictures just don’t do it justice!
