Description

Candy Land Lane Your kids are going to lose their minds. That's not marketing speak. That's fair warning. The moment they walk through the garage door and see a full-blown 1950s arcade with checkered floors, a red-felt pool table, Golden Tee, a Pac-Man cabinet loaded with classic games, and more!—you'll officially become the coolest parents on the planet. At least until checkout. Then they'll find the candy bar. Yes, there's a literal candy bar built into the wall. Gumball machine. Dispensers loaded with M&Ms and Skittles. Lollipops standing at attention. A pink "Candy Bar" sign that photographs extremely well. We named the house after it because "That Place With the Checkered Floor Game Room and Also a Candy Wall" didn't fit. What Happens Here Monopoly arguments at the living room TV console. Scrabble feuds. A very serious Sorry! tournament that ends at least one friendship. We've stocked the shelves with Clue, UNO, Yahtzee, Family Feud, Candy Land (obviously), and more. The big screen is there when you need a movie break from all the winning and losing. The game room gets loud. That's the point. Rack 'em up on the pool table—then change the surface for ping-pong when someone demands a rematch in a different sport. Challenge your father-in-law to darts. Watch your teenager dominate Golden Tee while you pretend you let them win. Relive your youth on the Pac-Man machine, then watch your kids have absolutely no idea how to play it. The Mortal Kombat cabinet is there for when things get competitive. The red retro fridge is stocked with nothing—but it looks incredible and keeps drinks cold. Where Everyone Sleeps Three bedrooms. Eight people. Here's how it breaks down: The master is calm, grown-up, and has a king bed with navy curtains and an abstract blue-and-gold painting that makes you feel like you're at a resort. The bathroom attached to it has a soaking tub for the parent who needs 20 minutes of silence and a walk-in tile shower for the parent who doesn't have time for that. Bedroom two has two twin beds with coral bedding and a teal accent wall. Great for kids or friends who don't mind their own space. Bedroom three is for the Texas fans—or anyone who thinks bunk beds are the greatest invention in human history. These aren't the rickety camp bunks you remember. They're queen-sized. Lone Star flag bedding. A metal star on the wall. An "Abilene" sign. Sleep like a king, stack like a bunk. The Kitchen Dark wood cabinets, granite countertops, stainless steel everything. There's a red door to the pantry that pops (or is that the secret entry to the 1950's?). You can actually cook here—we're talking a real stove, full fridge, microwave, and counter space for meal prep. Not a kitchenette. A kitchen. Outside After Dark The backyard has a covered patio with a big wooden table that seats eight. There's a built-in stone outdoor kitchen with a gas grill and storage—so you can flip burgers without running inside every five minutes. When the Texas evening cools off, fire up the propane heater and stay out there. The kids are inside playing arcade games anyway. Take your time. The Bottom Line This house is designed for families who want to actually do stuff together—not just sit in separate rooms staring at phones. It's colorful. It's playful. It's a little bit retro and a whole lot of fun. Book it for the game room. Stay for the candy wall. Leave with a new family champion of pool, ping-pong, darts, or Pac-Man. Please note: To give you the best possible experience, our professional management team requires a mandatory Guest Portal to that allows you to access the house. As a part of the booking process you will be given the choice between a damage waiver or a refundable damage deposit hold. You are welcome to choose either option! Whichever is most convenient for you. Accommodation details Yes, there's a literal candy bar built into the wall. Gumball machine. Dispensers loaded with M&Ms and Skittles.
