Brazos Moon: Hell's Gate Basin! Pool, Cliffside, Views, Luxury Home

This completely renovated home is so lovely with breath-taking views of Hell's Gate Basin and Possum Kingdom Lake. Seriously, these are the best, most interesting views available on the lake. Brand new swimming pool, hot tub and pavillion overlooking the lake are where you will want to spend your days and evenings. This beautiful home sleeps 12 people in 3 bedrooms and a bunk room for 6. Two large bathrooms plus an extra double sink vanity accommodate everyone nicely. Another full bath is in the pool pavillion.

Brand new kitchen. Free Wifi works inside and outside. Each bedroom has a TV (not in the photos yet) and large TVs provide great viewing in the living room and in the pavillion.

The fireplace in the pavillion is the best spot to gether around for fall/winter evenings and football watching. Hot tub in pool is available to heat for $40/4-hour cycle. (We don't profit from this - it is just the cost of the 4 gallons of propane per hour that the spa heater uses.) We don't want to charge you if you aren't going to use it, so please select it in the optional fees as you book.

Restrictions:
This is the perfect place to entertain your well-mannered family and friends. We have poured our hearts (and our dollars) into perfecting every detail of this home for your enjoyment. Please treat it with respect. We expect it to be returned to us in the same excellent condition we lent it to you in. Also, we have lovely, kind neighbors on either side of us, and we value our relationship with them. Please respect them by keeping music volume and distractions to a minimum at all times, and especially after 10pm.

A few things to note:
1. This home has quite a few steps throughout the first level. 2 steps up from living room to dining room, 1 step down from kitchen to dining room, and more.
2. The swimming pool is not gated. If you have children that are not strong swimmers, PLEASE do not bring them unless you are prepared to watch them at all times, or have them wear a life jacket anytime downstairs doors are not locked.
3. This home is on the edge of a 90 foot cliff that drops into the water. There is a railing, but please do not bring children or others that may be tempted to climb over the fence. No cliff diving allowed!
4. This home is transitioning into a smart home, and there are 2 security cameras outside that are unmonitored unless there is a problem.

Bring your family and come stay. You will never want to leave!

Best view in PK!!!
This place is great! Not a better view on PK Lake. House inside is fully renovated and our crew hung out in the wonderful kitchen and pool majority of the time! This place has great energy! The patio could use a grill set-up rather than charcoal pit. But this place has hands down the best sunset view for pics by the pool! Great purchase Heather and TY for sharing with our 12u baseball team for great memories during Rocker B Baseball tournament. The PK store down the road, Bluff Creek Marina, and The Cliffs golf course also make this place a hidden gem! Cheers!

Fantastic DFW Getaway Location!
My entire extended family of 12 loved our stay! It was large enough for everyone to gather in the common areas or stretch out into separate rooms. The host provided plenty of cleaning supplies and toiletries. Also had a great selection of games! This location is just a short drive away from DFW so you get more vacation relaxing time!

Gorgeous views!
This is a beautiful home with breathtaking views of Hell’s Gate. We spent most of our time at the pool and pavilion. It is so lovely and with a great sound system throughout. Owner’s were extremely accommodating and responded quickly with any questions I had which were mostly just operator error! Highly recommend this home!!

Beautiful views and awesome pool!
The views from this home are fabulous! The pool is awesome! The sound system was an added bonus. The house was large enough for the 10 of us to separate out and have our space, yet had wonderful areas for small group conversations. It’s definitely a great place for a large family. The only real issue we had was an unwelcomed mouse in the kitchen. I saw it the first night and thankfully there were mouse strips to put out. The next night he was gone. I believe this is probably due to the construction going on nearby on new homes. It is a great home with lots of games and things to enjoy!

Beautiful View
Check in and Communication with Heather was great! Only negative thing I can say is the Pool is treated and cleaned every Tuesday or so, just know that when this happens you may not be able to use it for several hours or a full day as in our case, which was the whole premise for us renting this property. Plan accordingly...we rented a boat for the day. Overall a beautiful property and view,

What a View
Wow the view from this house is GREAT! The house has a nice remodel to it and was very comfortable for a good size group. The pool and outdoor space was very well done. The pool was the place everyone was hanging out in and the outdoor arbor with a fireplace was wonderful. We really loved the house and the owner was very quick to answer any questions we had.

It was really beautiful but the timing was bad
It ended up being crazy windy, like so windy that you literally couldn't go outside, and it was way colder than it normally is in spring so with wind and chill it made it to wear we could only appreciate the house.

Oh, the views!!
There are so many positive things to say about this place, but.. the VIEWS. From everywhere in the house. The sunsets. I just can't even begin to describe how beautiful it all was. And Heather was simply fantastic. SO RESPONSIVE!! Absolutely could not ask for a better host!!! Other pros? The house was super clean, the beds were comfortable, plenty of towels and cooking supplies. Honestly we just really had no complaints. Some of the other reviews mention that the place needs another bathroom upstairs. I would say that would be ideal, for sure. But, given everything else the house has going for it, I would say it's worth it to make it work!! Heather, thank you, thank you, thank you for everything. It was an amazing trip and we will definitely be back!!
