About this property

Ranch House and Moon House (Houston)

  • This one of a kind combo is the group retreat you need. 



    Sleeps 12. A 2,200 sq. ft two-story ranch house plus the first MÖÖN House open to the public anywhere, side by side on private land in Coldspring, Texas, about 10 minutes from Lake Livingston and the Sam Houston National Forest. When you book this listing, no one else is booked at either one, so your group gets full privacy.

    This is the one for family reunions, friend getaways, milestone birthdays, and anniversary trips. Everyone is together, and one couple still gets the glass house to themselves.

    WHAT YOU'RE BOOKING

    The Ranch House (sleeps up to 10): 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, on 2+ private acres.

    The MÖÖN House (sleeps 2): a one-of-a-kind glass-walled design from ÖÖD House.

    THE RANCH HOUSE

    30-ft floor-to-ceiling windows with forest views

    Oversized king bed in the downstairs primary bedroom, with luxury linens and a private bath

    Whataburger Room (upstairs): 2 queen memory foam beds, private bath, Texas-themed décor

    Houston Astros Room (upstairs): queen memory foam bed, private bath

    Jack & Jill Bedroom (upstairs): queen bed, no bathroom inside. It sits between the Whataburger and Astros rooms and is reached only through one of them.

    Massive kitchen with 2 ovens, 2 sinks, a dining table that seats 8+, bar seating, and a fully stocked cookware and coffee/tea station

    Oversized laundry room with essentials provided

    Grown-up game room in the entryway with arcade games, dartboards, and lounge seating

    Front porch with rocking chairs and a swing, for morning coffee and cow-watching

    Filtered cowboy pool: shaded, fits 4, 8 ft wide and 4 ft deep, filtered, chlorinated and cleaned daily, with a bench for soaking just your feet

    Wood-burning fire pit, grilling station, and outdoor pizza oven, with yard games and open space

    THE MÖÖN HOUSE: GLASS WALLS, TOTAL PRIVACY

    The walls are windows. Morning light comes in low across the treeline, and after dark the glass falls away and you're left with the sky. The site is fully fenced, and there are curtains throughout for whenever you want them closed.

    Queen bed with luxury linens and a private full bath

    Towels, linens, and bath essentials included

    Full HVAC

    Wood fire pit with six logs included
