About this property

MAINHOUSE SLEEPS 6 (your request will be for this)
BUNKHOUSE SLEEPS additional 10 for $150/night and $75 cleaning fee (additional payment after reservation is booked)

Magnolia Pines is a beautiful industrial farmhouse home located inside the quiet, gated, retirement community of Holly Lake Ranch. It has everything you need to sleep 6 up to 15 in comfy beds. Our main house is a 2 bedroom/2 bath that sleeps 6. The bunkhouse is a separate garage apartment that is a 3 bedroom/1.5 bath that sleeps 10 (an add on of $150/night that will be charged after you book). For your convenience you can rent the main house or both structures. Since the bunkhouse does not have a kitchen we do not rent it on its own.

You can cuddle up and stay inside all weekend or venture out into the piney woods of East Texas and enjoy the numerous community amenities that Holly Lake Ranch has to offer. Our home is conveniently located just a block away from paddleboats, fishing, swimming pool, tennis, pickle ball, playground, walking trail, frisbee golf, putt putt golf, and a small sandy beach area to play in the lake. The 18 hole golf course, restaurant, and larger lake are within a 5 minute drive within the Ranch. We have equipment you can use while at our home and what we don’t have you can check out from the Ranch for free. All amenities are included in your stay except paddleboats and the 18 hole golf. Holly Lake is a quiet community with the average resident being retired. This is not the place for a party weekend :)

Our main house has the living room with a tv, fully stocked kitchen, king master bedroom with full bath, and separate bedroom with 2 queens and a full bath. The Bunkhouse has a living area with tv, queen bedroom, and a full bath downstairs. The upstairs of the Bunkhouse has a king bedroom, bunk room with six twin beds, and a half bath. All lines and towels are provided. In addition to comfortable furnishings, our house offers two outside eating areas, fire pit with chairs, covered back porch, and a fenced in back yard with tall trees and room to kick or throw a ball around! There is Wi-fi and a washer/dryer for your use during your stay.

We know you will fall in love with our home and with Holly Lake!

Dunn Family Christmas

The magnolia house was perfect for our family christmas weekend!!! We also rented the bunkhouse so 3 familys grandparents fit perfectly on this property! The gated community was no trouble at all and honestly a plus. It was quiet and quaint and we even got a sweet surprise with a golf cart christmas parade and a visit from santa! All at the park located near the property where we also enjoyed a playground, pickleball and tennis, a fabulous walking circle ans many other amenities. Everything was beyond perfect. 100% recommend

Family Getaway!

I stayed here with my family of 14 and it was absolutely perfect, there was more than enough room for everyone and we all had a great time! With all the board games, ping pong table, toys/balls there was never a “what do we do now” moment. Not to mention the host(s) were so welcoming, can’t wait to go back again!

Eclipse Vacation

Family from Florida and Colorado met at this lovely vacation home for the chance to see the totality of the 2024 eclipse and it was well worth the trip. The host could not have been nicer or more responsive and the home was welcoming, relaxing and had everything we needed for our stay! We enjoyed then pool and there were plenty of other fun things to do at this private, secure community. If we plan another vacation in Texas, we will certainly stay here again. And the eclipse was amazing!

We enjoyed our time at Magnolia Pines so much! The house has everything you need and makes you feel right at home. My kids enjoyed the swing in the front yard and the proximity to the pool.

Quiet get away

We had a family vacation with a variety of ages. We had two young ones who stayed in the bunk room and LOVED the bunk room and playing with all the toys included as well as playing with board games in the main house. We enjoyed the amenities the property had. We swam, fished, hiked and visted the activity center. It was a nice quiet get away.

Happiness!

We loved staying at Magnolia Pines! The street was quiet and we could easily walk to the lake for lots of fun activities. The kids had a blast playing in the house driveway and yard together and the available games inside continued the joy. The house worked well and the kitchen was well stocked. We fixed and ate every meal at the home! Thank you for allowing us to experience your special home in the woods!

Magnolia Pines: A Home Away From Home

What an amazing stay! The home was beautiful! Everything we could have possibly needed was stocked in the house… we totally overpacked. We were all so comfortable. My grandchildren enjoyed all of the outdoor toys immensely. Crystal was always available which is above and beyond…I can’t even imagine the types of calls she fields. We were all sad to leave and can’t wait to return. Magnolia Pines was truly a home away from home. Thank you to Crystal and her family for sharing their property with my family!

Summary of our stay

We really enjoyed our time at Magnolia Pines. We had ample room for everyone and really enjoyed our time together and would definitely consider staying again. A few notes for the owners; just in case: * There were only 2 dish clothes which is not enough to clean dishes with 14 people and 3 home made meals per day. We purchased some and left them for the next visitors * Only two rolls of paper towel which we went through quickly since there was only two dish towels. We had to purchase more. * Ran out of toilet paper, we had to purchase more * The owners may want to have someone look at their roof. There are several water stains on the ceiling of the main house. * No hot water after the first day in the bunk house. We exchanged the propane takes and followed the directions to click the plug button, but that did not work. * The door to the garage was open when we arrived so we did not need to add the code. Overall, an amazing stay and simply mentioned the issues above as I would want to know this if I owned the home. Thanks! Heather

Excellent Experience

I booked this property for a men’s retreat and 6 of us stayed at the property comfortably. We booked the bunkhouse and having two living areas made it an excellent situation to do our retreat elements in the bunkhouse and our social aspects in the main house near the kitchen. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you would expect. We ran into a few hiccups, none of which seemed to be the fault of the homeowner in that there was new staff at the check in for the Holly Lake Security and somehow the bathroom heater was left turned on so the A/C had some trouble the first day getting to temperature but the owner was very quick to respond to texts and resolved all issues quickly. We even had a welcome message at the front door that showed the owner read our message about our intent for the weekend and it was a very kind touch. The property was beautiful and the pictures were accurate. Another note for future renters, we tried to go to the putt putt and didn’t realize you needed to bring your own gear to play… it may have been somewhere in the garage but we decided to just enjoy the pool instead and still had a great time. Would definitely come back in the future!

Absolutely Exemplary Stay at Magnolia Pines

Our vacation at Magnolia Pines was nothing short of exemplary. This property, nestled on the serene Holly Lake, offered everything we could hope for and beyond. Every inch of the house was impeccably clean and spacious, comfortably accommodating our large group. The generous layout ensured privacy for everyone, making it an ideal setting for multiple families. The children had a field day with endless activities at their disposal. From board games to a wonderful outdoor area, every need was anticipated and catered to. It truly felt like the hosts had thought of everything. Touches like a fully-equipped kitchen, a bunk house, and even a guitar for impromptu sing-alongs truly made this place feel like a home away from home. These thoughtful amenities added a layer of warmth and comfort to our stay, making it truly extraordinary. The hosts were attentive and responsive, promptly answering any queries we had. Their dedication to ensuring our comfort was evident in every interaction. In summary, Magnolia Pines offered a perfect blend of relaxation and entertainment. With its unbeatable location, luxurious facilities, and exceptional hospitality, it provided an unforgettable vacation experience. We wholeheartedly recommend this gem on Holly Lake and eagerly anticipate our return.

About the host

Hosted by Crystal Spencer

I grew up visiting my Grandparents in Holly Lake Ranch so when we decided to purchase a vacation rental...I knew this was the place. My husband and I live in East Texas with our four little kids. We get out here as much as possible to escape the real world and enjoy the piney woods. Our kiddos love all the fun things to do out here and we love sharing our home so others can fall in love with Holly Lake Ranch!

Why they chose this property

We were looking for a home to make "ours". This property was a blank slate that had multiple ways for us to comfortably accommodate a lot of our friends and family. My husband renovated most of the house himself and I had a ton of fun decorating it.

What makes this property unique

The house feels like a dreamy Instagram moment but what makes it great is all the things you can do while here. Holly Lake offers so many amenities that are fun for any age!
