Little Cabin in the Woods


Our 17th Anniversary getaway was incredible. We stayed at Trickle Creek Cabins in Chaulk Mountain, Texas. I found them on the internet... a treasure. We stayed in the cabin called Morning Glory. It was absolutely perfect.
The creek... it is fed by a spring... one of the two springs in the area. It is truly just a trickle...

Our cabin was just a stone's throw away from the hot tub cabana.... see it in the oak trees on the right... It was fabulous. Sitting in the hot tub, looking at the sun set over the landscape was so relaxing. Out the front door of our cabin was the pond. The water level was down pretty far, but it was so still and calming.

The horses were so pretty. We had the fortune of being there at feeding time one afternoon. Mr. Mackey fed the horses, cats and the wild turkeys he raises. It was really cool to be so close to a wild turkey. They are really big birds. Scott is not a horse lover... but I think he even liked these horses.


We had an exceptional time exploring the 160 acres on the property. It was truly a peaceful time for both of us. We took the camera along to capture some of the images that moved us. I shot this one of Scott while he wasn't looking... I love it. It really felt like we were the only people in the world for the time we were there. It was what each of us needed. We will never forget our time at Trickle Creek Cabins. Thank you to my parents. We could not have gone and been so relaxed if we did not know that our kids were going to be taken care of so well. You do so much for us. We cannot thank you enough.
