Texas Family Reunions at Lake Godstone: a private 188-acre lake retreat near Graford, Texas. The Lodge sleeps 35, cabins and campgrounds take the campus past 100, and one family books the whole ranch at a time. Fishing, boats, a water slide, hayrides, a gun range and an observatory included.
Where the family sleeps
Book the Lodge, then add the Guest Home, cabins and campgrounds for the overflow.
Hear first when this host opens direct rates or adds a new place.
Add the Guest Home for the branch of the family that wants its own kitchen, the cabins for the couples, and the campgrounds for the RVs. Everybody meets back at the Lodge for dinner.

For the kids
No screens required
One grandmother told us she banned electronics for the weekend and the kids were not bored for a minute. Fishing with feeders under the dock so something always bites, the treehouse at Refuge, the pedal boats, the lit basketball court, geocaching with the ranch map, frogs and turtles at the Beaver Pond, deer at the feeders at dusk and the telescope after dark.
I built this place with my own family in mind. A lake you can swim in, docks to fish from, a porch wide enough for three generations at once, and a fire pit big enough for all the stories. When you book, the gate closes and the ranch belongs to your family alone.
Dom and Carol live here and will meet you at the gate. The hayride is at dusk. The water slide is for the kids, mostly.
Come make a tradition of it. Most of our reunions have.
