Wanting to get away for the weekend? The endless list of exciting places to explore and eateries to try is one of the many reasons locals love the Dallas – Fort Worth area, but sometimes an escape from an over-scheduled, frenzied, and nonstop active lifestyle and having the ability to do absolutely nothing at all is just what you need! When that’s the case, Rough Creek Lodge and Resort in Glen Rose is calling your name!
You’ll find yourself relaxing the minute you drive through the gates of the resort’s entrance.
