Great country location just 25 minutes from Waco and the Magnolia Silos, Baylor, Historic Waco and so many great venues in the Heart of Texas. Relax on your cabin front porch while watching wildlife, listen to songbirds, and wildlife sounds. Enjoy the entire acreage while exploring the wild side. Enjoy relaxing in a sun lounger in the cabana with a small ice chest of your favorite beverage and a book.

Stargaze here and enjoy sitting around the bonfire (your personal bon fire, or a common area large bonfire pit). Note: seasonal burn bans may be in place, inquire with host. Electric and Charcoal BBQ pits for your use with plenty of outdoor dining tables with patio umbrellas.

Spring is absolutely beautiful here with wild flowers, while summer brings great concerts and events to Waco, Baylor events (great biking trails at Cameron Park), Wonderful Fall events most every weekend to enjoy in and around Waco. Book early, as we book up quickly.

7 person Hot tub available and is very private in a privacy fenced and gated enclosure for your privacy. Hot tub is open to all cabins. Change sign to "occupied" for your own privacy. hot tub May be reserved, based on availability but must observe quiet time after 9 pm to 8 am.

Enjoy the peace of cardinals and song birds as you enjoy morning coffee at your private bistro table. Watch for deer, elk and antelope as the roam the high fenced ranch across the street. Bring your camera for the amazing sunsets and sunrises we enjoy here. Get back to nature and come be our guest.

Small, CLEAN, nearly new (tiny home) cabins that are fully equipped with fantastic ac/heat, great indoor showers, comfy beds (some with King, some with Queen beds), some with sleeper sofas, and set up for one night or 90 nights. We offer many unique camping experiences nestled around the back of the property. Nice paved country roads bring you here to Blue Eagle Retreat, and we offer a nice, maintained gravel parking lot.
