A Private, Detached Cottage with Its Own Porch
Burke Trammel Cottage is a standalone guest space on the same residential property as the main Victorian home at 317 W Sam Rayburn Dr — but separate from it. Private entrance, private porch, queen bed, private bath, Wi-Fi, and a streaming TV. Come and go on your own schedule without coordinating around anyone else.
Whether you're visiting family in Bonham, spending a weekend from Dallas, or just need a quiet pet-friendly base in Fannin County, this cottage offers more privacy and more space than any standard hotel room — without the chain-lodging feel.

Is This Cottage the Right Match?
This cottage works well if:
- You're travelling with a pet — this is one of two designated pet-friendly spaces on the property
- You want a private, detached guest space with your own entrance and porch
- You prefer ground-level access — no stairs involved
- You're visiting family in Bonham or nearby Fannin County communities
- You want a quieter setup than a hotel room, with back-lot parking and easy come-and-go
- You need a longer stay — no minimum, and extended-stay discounts available
This cottage is probably not the right match if:
- You need a full kitchen — the kitchenette is unconfirmed; contact the owner to verify
- You need more than 2 guests — both cottages sleep up to 2
- You need a dedicated work desk — see the Sam Rayburn Suite in the main house
