The Stay

The stay, as it stands today.

The cottage is being built now, on a private parcel inside the ranch. Here's everything about the stay that's already settled — plainly, with nothing invented.

What's already true

  • A private 3.5-acre parcel set aside for the stay — not a shared property, not a spare room.
  • Set inside a working ranch under active restoration — not manicured for a photo.
  • Stays will include trail access onto the adjoining 55 acres — hiking and e-bike. Never sold separately, never a day pass.
  • Genuinely dark skies — no nearby city glow.
  • About an hour from Dallas; a different pace the moment you turn off the highway.

What's being decided, in order

Layout and capacity → the amenity list → the opening date → price. Each one goes on this page the day it's real, not before. If you want to know the moment any of these change, join the list — that's what it's for.

The setting

Fifty-five acres of working, restored land around the cottage — trails, open sky, and quiet.
