A Lovely Stay
We booked this home for the April 2024 eclipse and we just loved staying here. The home was comfortable and the scenery was so peaceful. The owners were extremely responsive to any messages I sent their way. You can tell they want their guests to be well cared for during their stay. If you need a place to stay in Glen Rose or want to stay near the cities without being IN the city, this is a fantastic option.

Quite and comfortable
Property was very clean. Out in the country so it is quite. The view is very beautiful with the morning sun rise and the evening sun set. Only a few miles out so it does not take long to get to old town.

Great Place To Stay. Highly Recommend!
The host was responsive and understanding of the needs of our family. My children and I had a great time. We were close enough to enjoy many of the surrounding attractions and far enough to enjoy the quiet of the evening under a big open sky.

This property was perfect for what we needed. We are a large family and the house size was perfect. It was very clean, very well set up. If we visit the area again, this will be our go-to.

Lovely Farmhouse Minutes from Town
My adult daughter, grand-niece, and four-year-old grandson had a wonderful experience at Seven Knobs! The house was clean and beautifully furnished with a mix of antiques and modern furniture. It was spacious, with a bedroom for each of us as well as a nice open kitchen and dining area. The bathrooms were well supplied as was the kitchen. The fenced back yard was just right for my daughter's Yorkie. Our family visiting from the DFW area enjoyed the house as well. It was a perfect location for gathering and spending a day together with outings and a shared meal. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Seven Knobs and the Glen Rose area and are already making plans to go for another visit. We will gladly stay here again!
