Short weekend to meet our soldier!

This was a fantastic meeting ground for us to meet our soldier halfway! The property was close to everything but also yet secluded enough for us to get the much-needed family time. Everyone had their space to relax, but also had great gathering spaces for us to play games hang out by the lake, fish and to catch fireflies. Core memories were made, and these were fantastic accommodations for our short time together.

Great Time

My wife and I and 4 other couples stayed here and had a great time. The house was big enough to accommodate all 10 of us and had everything we needed. The only complaint we had was the noise of the AC in one of the upstairs bedrooms. It sounded windy when the door was closed. Altogether we had a great time!

Perfect layout

We used the property the weekend of my son’s wedding. The layout of the home was perfect for what we needed. Overall the property was clean though I had to sweep three inches of leaves off the porch. A little disappointed the backdrop was as weathered as it was.

Pecan shores retreat ❤️

This property was just perfect. The house plan is open and spacious. The home is cozy and comfortable. Everything was clean and well taken care of. I met the owner because he was wrapping pipes for the upcoming freeze that was about to take place. He was very kind and welcoming. The outside area is great and we even used the fire pit for s'mores. I would highly suggest this property!
