Welcome to Stardust Retreat!
If ever the term “time capsule” were to be used to describe a vacation rental home, it would be appropriate of Stardust Retreat in Coleman, Texas. To step into the property is like stepping back into the 1950s.
Originally built in the mid-20th century, the upstairs loft was once the garage apartment of the original house, as a place for J.E. McDaniel and his cronies to drink whiskey, smoke cigars, and discuss running the town. Remodeled down to the studs, the finish-out is new, while the mid-century aestethic was kept in both design and furnishings.
I adore the mid-century time period and architecture, and live in a mid-century home myself. When I bought this property, I realized a dream of not only having such amazing, authentic MCM homes, but also of being able to share their treasures with others. My goal is to create a peaceful retreat in this lovely, revitalizing town of Coleman, in a truly unique setting.
I have personal ties to the town — my mother’s side of the family hails from neighboring Brownwood, and my mom lived in Coleman for a few years as a child in the 1950s. I chose the name “Stardust” because it was my grandparents’ song.
I love to welcome guests to this special place of nostalgia!
