If there is something you can't live without, bring it with you. 

  HOW TO CHOOSE WHERE YOU WANT TO STAY?

The Cabin on Comanche Creek is closer to Mason and to Highway 87. You can drive to the Cabin and to Comanche Creek in a regular car.  

Mason Mountain Manor is more remote and secluded.

It is 2 1/2 miles from the highway in the middle of our 700 acre back pasture. The Manor is the place to stay if you REALLY want to get away.

If you stay at the Manor, there are some rough roads you might want to explore, so a pick-up or vehicle with more ground clearance is recommended.

We have outside cats that we feed on the porch. If you are allergic to cats or if you don't like cats, don't stay at the Manor. 

 Scroll down for photos and more information.
