Reviews for this vacation home rental in Holly Lake Ranch, Texas
We just spent 9 days at this place and loved it. The place as expected was fully furnished and very clean and met our standards which I want to personally thank you for, since that was such an important factor especially when renting without seeing. It was a very comfortable stay and felt like home. Overall I would rate this a 10 on a scale of 1-10 if you want to have a nice getaway from the hustle and bustle of everyday routine. Would definitely reconsider going back if in the area again. Thanks for allowing us to rent this place.
Special thanks for a wonderful getaway. The cabin was very nice and relaxing. This is a home away from home where you can enjoy indoors or outdoors it has all the amenities to make you feel at home. It is definitely a place that my family and I would come back to. Thank you for opening up your home to our family.
What a lovely retreat. Clean, neat, great furnishings, new, cozy! Fantastic nature surroundings. We were there in the height of the dogwood trees, absolutely spectacular. Will definitely return!
We had such a wonderful time in your lovely home! The area was so beautiful and peaceful. The house is great - cozy, well kept, clean and fresh! We will definitely plan a trip back. We loved seeing the deer from the porch and taking hikes around the property. We didn't want to leave! So much fun!
Thanks again,
The Ross family
Great place to get away for the weekend. House was nicely furnished and very clean. Enjoyed watching the deer. Will definitely plan to stay there again.
This place was very clean, and we liked the mini golf, the playground and the place in general.It was perfect!! Can't wait to return this summer and use the pool!!:)
Beautiful house-well appointed. I was impressed and had a wonderful and relaxing few days. Want to go back so I can do some of the many activities there are available. I could just move in. Thanks you Rene, for allowing us to spend a few days in your home.
If you want peace and tranquility, this is your home. It has everything you need and then some. Beautifully furnished with a Texas theme. Sit on the porch and see a parade of deer daily. Like nature? This is the place to be. Take nature walks, play golf, swim, tennis. If you want to eat out you have got to try A Taste of Italy located on Lake Hawkins, just 10-15 min. away. It's the real deal. The perfect place to be alone or meet other family members for a reunion. Large pavillion onsite (free) Plan on going back next month.
We enjoyed so much our relaxing weekend at Holly Lake. My Mom owns land but not a home, so we enjoy renting property. Of all the homes we've rented so far, we love this one best. It is clean and clutter free. Has all the conveniences you need. The screened in porch was great! We loved watching the deer in the mornings and evenings.
We stayed at this cabin for 5 days while my husband was home for r&r from Iraq and we loved it so much! We needed somewhere we could just hang out as a family but still have plenty to do. It had everything we needed and my kids loved the swimming and miniature golfing. There were even a few Disney movies for us to watch and just relax with each other. We especially enjoyed drinking coffee on the porch and watching all the deer. It was beautiful! Everyone we met was super nice. We will definitly be back again. Thanks for everything Carol!
The house is so quiet and cozy, the boating on the lake was terrific. We had lots of fun at the pool. Morning coffee on the porch watching the deer was fabulous. Can not get a vacation getaway like this for the price. Thanks for the hospitality, we will be back.

Very nice and clean house that is furnished with everything you need.
Very peaceful with a great view
out the front windows. Owner was
easy to work with concerning info
and questions.
This is a very, very nice home in a nice wooded area. Everything is there to help you settle in - dishes, washing machine, towels. I enjoyed the scenery of trees and deer. My small children enjoyed the pool and miniature golf. Everybody we met was friendly and helpful. Even with the hot temperatures, the home and surroundings are comfortable in all the shade. This is a vacation that does NOT require another vacation afterwards to recuperate. We'll definitely be returning!
WE HAD A GREAT WEEKEND. EVERYTHING WE NEEDED WAS THERE. LOTS OF FRESH AIR AND THE AMENITIES WERE GREAT. HOUSE WAS EXTREMELY NICE AND AREA IS BEAUTIFUL. WILL BE BACK AGAIN.
THANKS FOR THE RELAXATION

Rene,
I wanted to thank you for letting my family stay at Holly Lake, it was so
beautiful and peaceful. The pictures on forgetaway do not do the house
justice. It really was wonderful. I am sure you will hear from us again.
Thank you

Rene,
Our trip started off great until we had car trouble and then everything seemed to go down hill from there. We finally made it to the house about 10:00pm Friday. We loved the house and really enjoyed our stay there. Before we got there, we were so stressed. But the house was so amazing; so comfortable, clean, and cozy that we all felt better being there. Sitting out on the porch and watching the deer walk through the yard was very therapeutic. We hated to leave and would have stayed longer if we did not have such a long trip to make back home. I hope you will allow us to rent it again next year for our annual family reunion. In fact, we all were thinking we might want to stay a week next time.
Thanks again.
Sue
Spent a week in the most relaxing area of the piney woods. The house is immaculate and all of the comforts of home are provided. We will be back again next year for a longer stay.
Stayed in the house last week and everything was beautiful. Very comfortable, the deer were all around every morning. House is very clean and the swimming was great. Very peaceful
