The Cabin at Bell & Brook Ranch offers a secluded retreat, perfect for disconnecting and recharging. Nestled on a peninsula that juts into a small pond, this off-grid escape in East Texas is surrounded by lush forests and open hay fields, providing an ideal backdrop for a peaceful getaway.
This cabin emphasizes simplicity and a strong connection to the natural world. Mornings can be spent watching clouds drift by from the porch, while evenings are best enjoyed around the fire pit, listening to crickets and gazing at the stars.
Adventure awaits just beyond the door. Guests can explore forest trails, try their hand at fishing, or interact with the ranch’s horses. For those seeking a slower pace, simply unwinding and enjoying the scenery might be all that’s needed.
The cabin is truly off the grid. Electricity comes from solar power, and while it’s reliable, it’s wise to be prepared for the occasional outage. A wood-burning stove keeps the cabin cozy in colder months, and an air conditioning unit has been recently installed for warmer weather. Guests have access to candles, battery-powered lights, and a generator if additional power is needed after dark.
While the cabin is private, it’s part of a working ranch. The driveway is shared with another guest cabin and ranch staff may pass by, so a bit of flexibility is appreciated.
For convenience, the cabin includes a propane-powered refrigerator and cook stove, along with basic kitchen essentials. The bathroom and shower are in a separate outbuilding, adding to the rustic charm. Fresh water is available, and the hosts can stock the fridge with local grass-fed beef, eggs, and homemade bread upon request.
Sleeping arrangements are cozy, with two twin beds typically made up as a king but easily separated if preferred.
