NEW FIBER INTERNET 2026! Gil Haus, nestled on 20 private acres, is the perfect luxurious modern farmhouse for a quick getaway from the city. Built in the late 1930s, the newly renovated stunning interior will spoil you with Bertazzoni appliances and custom clawfoot soaking tub. Enjoy nature from the back porch, relaxing in the Adirondack chairs around the fire pit. This secluded home is ideal for a romantic trip, or it can offer a peaceful stay when you want to escape the city.

We apologize for any inconvenience, but animals or 'visiting' animals are not allowed.

The Grand Lady and world-famous Southside Barbecue are close by for folks that want delicious Texas barbecue before walking down the aisle!

This house was wonderful literally exactly how it was pictured! Lots of vrbo kitchens are not fully stocked this one literally had everything you need. The mattress was so comfortable as well! I think there were reviews with people complaining about bugs and insects, yes they are outside but you are in the country so it should be expected! Either way we didn’t have issues inside at all with them. Would 100% recommend staying here

Honestly, the best vrbo home that any of us had ever stayed in. So beautiful, clean, and welcoming. We’d give it 10 stars if we could! Dana was a great host and had great communication with us throughout our stay. We loved the updated appliances and there was nothing that we felt we needed and didn’t have available. We recommend this stay for any and everyone.

We had an amazing stay!

This property was everything we expected and more! From the high-end kitchen to the cozy living room to the comfortable bedrooms and beautiful bathrooms, it did not disappoint. The property outside was perfect for us as well with the kids playing football and baseball and soccer. Our host Dana was so helpful and attentive and was so gracious in her dealings with all of us. The country farmhouse feel and the little details around the house and the property made our family Thanksgiving that much more special. We will definitely be back!

From the moment I arrived I felt I was exactly where I needed to be...away from the city. The old farm house feels cozy all while full loaded with top notch amenities. The owners thought about every detail showing how much they care about their guests. It was a beautiful experience and great place to get some R&R.
