My husband has a stressful job in Telecom in Dallas. Every now and then we try to "get away from it all," even if it's just for a long weekend. And we've now discovered the PERFECT place to do that without having to drive very far: Goldie's Getwaway on Lake Whitney, Texas! The home is charming, lovely, very clean, and comfortable. The hot tub is the perfect place to soak up the sun, watch the water skiers & boats, and relax. The kitchen is so well equipped, I baked cookies while I was there. We used the charcoal grill almost every night. The yard is fenced so if you bring your dog(s) they can play outside. The sunset views of Lake Whitney from the huge picture windows at the back of house are SPECTACULAR. Every evening it was picture perfect. Just gorgeous!
We absolutely loved our stay at Goldie's Getaway and are already planning our next trip. We loved that it was only a 90-minute drive from N. Dallas. And in just 90 minutes we had peace, quiet, and were very secluded from the traffic and chaos of the city. If you work in the city (Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, Austin) I recommend getting away from it all on Lake Whitney! Give yourself a chance to recharge and BREATHE. You'll be glad you did! Oh, and the hosts, Lauren & Paul, are very attentive to your every need. We were extremely pleased with our stay.
