If you've been asking yourself, "What's the best place to stay in Palestine, Texas?" — well, y'all, we're so glad you found us. In this episode, we're talking about why Labor Day weekend is truly the sweet spot for a family escape here in East Texas, and how a little time on the land can leave you feeling recharged and carrying home a renewed perspective. I'm Stacy Betts, and we operate Dead Cat Ranch, a beautiful 1,200-acre getaway nestled in the picturesque landscape near Palestine, Texas. This place was originally my dad's ranch — a man who cherished every acre of it — and we've made it our mission to share that same beauty and warm Texas hospitality with families like yours. In this episode, you'll learn why that last long weekend of summer is the perfect time to gather everyone before the busy season sets in, what makes Palestine such a special corner of East Texas, and how our "Relax, Play, Stay" experience gives your family room to reconnect. We'll walk through everything from horseback riding, fishing, and ATV trails to the pool, hot tlub, and axe throwing — plus our bunkhouse that sleeps 20 and cozy Airstream lodging, so the whole family can stay together. Whether it's a family reunion, a couples getaway, or a girls' or guys' trip, we've got room for all of it. So grab a cup of coffee and let's plan your Labor Day escape.
