Waterfront Vacation Home, Golf-Fish-Swim, Sleeps 12 in Wooded Resort

Rock Springs Retreat is an amazing home located on Lake Greenbriar, which is the largest lake in Holly Lake Ranch. This lake is great for fishing, boating, skiing, and tubing. The boat ramp is less than 1/2 mile from the house and we have a boat dock to tie up your boat or water toys.
What a perfect location for a large family, family retreat, or friends getaway. There is a huge deck that overlooks the lake and wraps around to a screened porch. It is the perfect spot for cooking out, watching sunsets and wildlife!
The home has an open floor plan that welcomes you from the moment you walk in. The kitchen is perfect for those large get-togethers and features an island a and a large breakfast bar. Three of the bedrooms have large windows with lake view! The master bedroom is conveniently located on the lower level. Above the garage is a game room with a pool table and in the screened porch we have a ping pong table. Stroll down the boardwalk to your own private fishing dock! Holly Lake Ranch is a beautiful, gated resort community in the Piney Woods of East Texas.
Amenities such as golf, swimming pools, tennis courts, pickle ball courts, mini-golf, horseshoes, shuffle board, volley ball, etc. are available to all of our guests. So bring your family or friends to Rock Springs Retreat for a memorable vacation and enjoy the beauty of Holly Lake Ranch!

Please note that as of April 1, 2022 there will be a fee for guests to bring motored watercraft in to Holly Lake Ranch to use on the private lakes. The fee is $50 and is good for three days.

Spacious
The property had Great Lake access. The home was spacious, and accommodations were very comfortable. The cooking equipment (stove and grill) need to be serviced or upgraded, but they were functional. There were lots of amenities with the property that kept everyone occupied. Our family enjoyed the time.

Return visit to our favorite property!
I take my family on a weekend trip around the holidays every year and this was on our list for a return visit. Second trip was even better than the first. There’s something for all ages to enjoy between the pool room, ping pong table, huge lake view porch with rocking chairs, and dock. We love the open floor plan and large kitchen which is well stocked with dishes and cooking/baking dishes and utensils. Everything about renting this property was easy and efficient. My favorite part is watching the deer that wander through each morning. It’s fun to drink morning coffee and enjoy the view. Kids kept busy with indoor/outdoor games, video games, and hiking the trails.

AMAZING!
Everything was wonderful! The house is spacious, has everything you could need to cook, to relax and to have fun. Whenever anyone needed anything in the kitchen all we had to do was look for it--it was there. Even as I was grilling chicken on the deck, I wished I had brought my meat thermometer--no problem, there was even one of those available! The game & dvd video cabinet was well-stocked; there was even plenty of books if you wanted to read. However, we spent most of our time outside fishing or just relaxing in the wooden rocking chairs on the big back porch. We took a couple of walks in the neighborhood, enjoyed seeing all the deer, and everyone was so friendly! We thoroughly loved the weekend! We hope we can go back again soon. It was ALL amazing!

Great Get-a-Way
Our family really enjoyed our stay at Holly Lake Ranch. It was like harkening back to simpler times. The kids loved the amenities at the activity centers. Adults enjoyed sitting on the porch in the evenings watching the deer come by while the kids played ping pong. House was very well kept and equipped. We even caught a few bass and crappie.

Very relaxing stay!
This house fit our needs perfectly! There was adequate space for 12 of us to move around and feel close but not on top of each other. And the view of the lake is perfect! We also enjoyed seeing the wildlife up close. The home is a little bit older, but everything was in working order and they had all the things we needed to prepare meals, relax, etc.
