    My recent return stay to the Four Crossings Guesthouse was just wonderful!!! This home is spectacular - rustic, beautiful, comfortable, cozy and super classy. My guest and I were so excited about being there. Janice had the wood burning stove going when we arrived - it was so cozy and smelled sooo good. There are beautiful touches all over this home - a true "work of art." We also enjoyed the cute farm animals, the pitch-black country sky overhead, and a fun (and educational!) visit with Janice before leaving along with a homemade bottle of wine she gave us. It's in such a beautiful location as well - we ate at The SmokeStack and so enjoyed the drive back and forth. You can't go wrong staying here! We definitely hope to return to Four Crossings!!!!!


    We had a wonderful time!

    This was the perfect getaway from all of the city life and stress. The house sits on 64 acres of wonderful scenery and wildlife. The innkeeper, Janice, was very hospitable and a delight. She provided us with everything we needed, and then some. There were 6 couples in our group, and the house was a perfect fit. If you are looking for a nice weekend getaway, this is absolutely the place!

    Our stay was wonderful! We came for a family girls weekend and Four Crossings gave us the comfort we needed to be able to sit for hours talking, playing games, eat, and anything else we wanted to do. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen had everything that we needed to fix meals. We were provided with all the attention a 5 star hotel could give.

    A wonderful place to meet with friends and family. House is charming and well maintained. The farm animals wandering around the yard add to the atmosphere. The house was very cool and comfortable in the extreme Texas heat. Very quiet and private. Our host shared her extensive knowledge on the history of the property and area. Great experience!

    Perfect place to take your children and their families. Plenty of dining and card/board game space; great morning walks; farm animals to pet; and lake trips within 30 minutes. Great fun.
