Thank you so much for deciding to stay at our home! We live in Fort Worth, TX full time and love making the drive to beautiful East TX to enjoy Lake Athens. My husband and I have always loved hosting and most importantly, making it a fun time for our guests. We kept this in mind while designing this home and I hope you feel that when you are here! We hope you make memories, just like we do every time we visit.
