You won't find more gracious and caring hosts than you will here. Your stay will be relaxing beyond expectation, with the thoughtfulness and quality, encountered from the accommodations, to finely-appointed meals, to events like cocktail hour in the salon, to sipping hand-crafted hot chocolate by a crackling bonfire. Bohemian luxury awaits you at The Homestead.

This was my first experience at a bed and breakfast, and it was one I will remember. The home itself was gorgeous. I loved the shower that connected to the Steward Room. There were little touches everywhere that made it very inviting . The hosts were amazing, very knowledgeable and filled with suggestions about the surrounding area. Breakfast in the morning was perfection. I would highly recommend! 

Business response:

Thank you Sarah! How wonderful to meet you and have you stay at The Homestead 1854!

Mary Kay and her husband are amazing. The house and property are so beautiful and unique. Mary Kay was accommodating and very helpful. The whole day was gorgeous and everything ran smoothly and well. The food she made was delicious. She was on top of all our needs and keeping things going. We could not have picked a better place and we definitely would never find people anywhere else as great as them. 

Business response:

Neikeia, thank you so much for your kind words. You and your family are wonderful. Can't wait to see you again. Congratulations on all of your recent great life events!

Words cannot accurately express how wonderful Mary Kay, her husband and her staff made my wedding day. The bed and breakfast is immaculately decorated and the grounds are breathtaking. During my planning period, Mary Kay answered every email I send within hours. She was so helpful and her attitude caused any anxiety I may have had to subside. The day of my wedding went better than I could have imagined. My guests were speechless at how amazing the venue was and how wonderful the staff was. I can't thank The Homestead enough ... read more

I am looking forward to going back when the weather is hot to enjoy the great outdoors.... The Homested has now set the bar so high I will expect these type of service and the bed and breakfast.

I always feel so welcomed at The Homestead. Mary Kay is so sweet. She has so much passion and care for each person that attends an event at The Homestead. I attended the Italian Wine Pairing Dinner put on by Ginger and Soul Inc. Wow. The decor was amazing. The atmosphere was absolutely warming and relaxing. The food and wine were delicious. I kept having to remind myself that I was in the middle of Plano on a Monday night. I felt so spoiled! 

Business response:

Thank you for these kind words; we are here to spoil, spoil, spoil you!!
