Valley View Cabin at Brazos House Retreat

Quiet secluded cabin, on top of a hill, with view of Brazos River Valley. (Note, road leading to this cabin is steep and unpaved, so it might be daunting to guests not accustomed to country living.) Our home is at top of the hill and we have driven this road for 22 years - without 4-wheel drive. *

Located on 38 acres with Brazos river access. There is a riverside patio and fishing deck just a quick car ride down the hill. When the river is low, there is also access to a nice beach great for children to play in shallow water, and hunting for fossils and arrowheads.

Two queen bedrooms plus a sofa with linens provided for extra sleeping for a child or teen. All towels and linens provided. Children and pets welcome.

Fully furnished kitchen - all you'll need to bring is your food.
Direct TV, Wifi, propane grill, washer/dryer.

Just 10 minutes from historic Glen Rose, and 20 minutes from Dinosaur Valley State Park, Fossil Rim Wildlife Park and Dinosaur World.

Our stay at Valley View cabin was so nice. The river is very close, the cabin was so cozy and well stocked. There was a fire ring with porch swings that was used both nights we stayed. The kitchen has full size appliances and the host was very responsive. We will be back soon!

Family Getaway

This cabin was such a perfect getaway home for us. We were very close to Glen Rose, it didn’t take long at all to get into town to do the activities. Property was very nice with lots of room for the kids to run around and play. They loved the swings and the daily visits from the dogs. We had never been to that area before, and it was a great experience.

Cozy Scenic Cabin

Our family went for a Father’s Day weekend getaway and thoroughly enjoyed our cabin and the Brazos House Retreat property. We had such an enjoyable visit that we decided to make this an annual event. The view is stunning, that swings were fantastic, and we made good use of the fire pit and the wood provided.

Great place to crash for a weekend trip to Dino valley.

Great place to crash for a weekend trip to Dino valley. Yes the water system is pretty smelly and could use an upgrade, but great little place for up to a family of 4 to crash.
