A Farmhouse Family Getaway with Wiffleball Field!








About
Welcome to The Farmhouse! Located in the North East Texas piney woods, we are just 7 minutes from the Greg County Airport, 20 minutes south of Longview and 40 minutes east of Tyler. If you are looking for a place to relax, unwind, and play games with friends and family, this just might be that getaway you are looking for. So please... come, and enjoy The Farmhouse :).
Good to know
Designed for FAMILIES! Having four kids of our own and being part of a large extended family, The Farmhouse was designed for families looking to get away and enjoy some time together. Whether you have older or younger children, the games (indoor and outdoor), 55” smart TV, hammocks, and bean bags are just a few things that are sure not to disappoint. But, you do not need kids to enjoy this space. Have a cup of coffee or tea while sitting out on the patio, enjoy an evening out by the fire pit, or grill and eat outside under the covered picnic area. All are welcome to come, relax, and enjoy The Farmhouse! Do You Like GAMES? If you are a game enthusiast, this place is for you! Filled with board games, card games and outdoor games for all ages, come and play and let your worries take a break or disappear altogether. From an oversized Connect Four for the littles, to a strategic game of Catan for the bigs, to a relaxing game of Corn Hole for two, to a family game of Wiffleball for all. Yes, you read it correctly, there is a full size WIFFLEBALL FIELD, so come and play! Wiffleball bats and balls are provided as well. And if you hit a home run, there may be a spot for you to become a little famous… well, here at The Farmhouse anyway ;). Want to Support LOCAL? Something we enjoy doing and have been able to do with The Farmhouse is support local craftsmen. As you enter The Farmhouse, several pieces throughout the space have been designed by some amazing individuals giving it that rustic farmhouse feel we were hoping for. And we also wanted to show off their skills to our guests! We currently feature 5 local craftsmen at The Farmhouse and have them listed in our welcome book. So if you like one of their pieces, let us know, we can hook you up! Free to ROAM Guests will have private access to the fully air-conditioned Farmhouse and roughly 1.5 acres of the property filled with free parking, outdoor games, fire pit, BBQ grill, covered picnic area, hammocks, and wiffleball field. Inside you will have free WiFi, washer & dryer (detergent provided), a fully stocked kitchen of essentials, 55” smart TV, board games, card games, bean bags, basic bathroom essentials, and beds (king, queen, full, & twin) to hopefully give you that peaceful night's rest. An air mattress can also be provided depending on number of guests.
Other Details to Note
★ HOUSE HAS CHARACTER ★ This is a 50+ year old farmhouse that has been renovated inside and out. However, it still has held onto its character along with some of the charms of its age (squeaky floors and small cracks due to foundation shifting over time). ★ FILTERED WATER PROVIDED ★ The water on the property is fine to drink but has a strong iron content. Filtered water (cold and instant hot) has been provided for your convenience. ★ MORE PROPERTY COMING ★ Your property access is 1.5 acres of the almost 11-acre estate and the barn on the property is not accessible to guests. This will change in the future as we continue to renovate (Game Barn and Glamping sites coming!). ★ EAST TEXAS FRIENDS ★ Although we spray the house inside and outside regularly, keep it cleaned, prepped, and maintained after each guest, please remember that this is a 50+ year old farmhouse out in the East Texas piney woods country. You may come across some of our East Texas friends (crickets, fire ants, etc.). ★ COVID-19 SANITIZATION ★ Heath, safety, and well-being of our guests are of utmost importance. For this reason, we use a thorough and extensive cleaning process after each check-out. ★ NO PETS ALLOWED ★ We love those little (and not so little) furry bundles of joy. Sadly, our home is not suitable to accommodate them. If you sneak in a pet, you will be charged an additional $300 and asked to leave. ★ NO SMOKING INSIDE ★ Please refrain from smoking inside the home! Any smoking evidence will result in a fee for Oder Removal, Duct Cleaning, and Furniture Cleaning. ★ NO PARTIES/EVENTS ★ We kindly ask you to treat our home as your own to preserve its pristine condition for future guests and your return visits. Thank you very much for your understanding. Let us know if you have any questions; we're locals; we have the answers. Happy Travels!

Neighborhood
This is a country setting with several country homes around. Most of our neighbors are retired and enjoy riding around on their golf carts or UTVs. They love their neighborhood and will treat you with respect if there was ever any interaction (not something you really have to worry about). So please, respect the neighborhood and our neighbors. Thanks!
