Peaceful Getaway
If you are looking for a peaceful retreat this is the place. Doe’s Hideaway is even prettier in person. We enjoyed our mornings on the front and back porch drinking our coffee and reading our bibles. What a perfect way to start the day. Had fun fishing and walking around on property, the Alpaca's were entertaining too. The evening skies were spectacular while hearing all the sounds of nature. We will definitely be back when we visit our daughter at Baylor.

We loved the location and serenity of the place. It was close enough to get out and do things, but far enough to relax and get away from the busyness of the city. Will definitely be back!

The best honeymoon getaway!
We had the best time here! It was the perfect place to get away from all of the craziness of our regular day-to-day. A serene and secluded area, where we definitely got a lot of fishing in! Just a short drive into town to do something during the hottest parts of the day. We absolutely loved it and hope to be back again!

Anniversary 29
Our most relaxing stay to date. The house was better than picturest shown. We relaxed on the back porch and by the waters edged most of the time. We had a storm along the coastline that made winds too high to fish most of the time, but still managed to catch a few. I highly recommend this house for a relaxing stay. Owner was sooo easy to deal with too. We even purchased one of the pieces of art while there.

Serene Escape
This is a hidden gem for sure! We sadly had to leave early for a sick kiddo but the place was great. Very clean, rejuvenating to sit on the back porch. Can drink coffee in bed with the electric fireplace on while looking out at the pond and trees. Also very kid friendly if you choose to go that route. It’s only a short drive I’m to Waco so you have the peacefulness of the country and quick access to the city. It has a queen bed but I do think a king would fit nicely in the bedroom. We would absolutely stay here again.

A really nice getaway
My wife and I were looking for a short getaway from Dallas. We found and booked the place the same week. The place looked exactly what the pictures said and the place is really tucked away. It was super clean and well maintained. Our only issue was the bed was probably a full size in the bedroom. The listing says it’s 2 queens in the one bedroom (we didn’t need 2 beds, but would’ve loved at least one queen). But kudos to the hosts! We really enjoyed ourselves.

A Beautiful Getaway
If you're looking for a cute, clean place to get away from the world, this is it! The decor and amenities were beautiful! The pond just made everything seem next level. Cast a line with a glass of wine, enjoy the rockers on the back porch, or throw open the curtains and enjoy from the warmth of your bed. We walked the property and I noticed lots of Bluebonnet plants. I will be back in spring to enjoy them in full bloom!

My husband and I had a WONDERFUL stay! The cabin and property were even more beautiful in person. The perfect TX country feel, while still being a short distance into Waco. We will most definitely stay here again on our next trip to the area.
