Luxury Lakefront Pool & Sauna | Sleeps 10, up to 12

The Noir Barndominium Lake House is one of the most unique luxury lakefront rentals near Fort Worth, Texas. What started as a hot rod garage, rough around the edges and full of character, has been thoughtfully transformed into a premier waterfront retreat on Lake Granbury. When we found it, we saw past what it was and focused on what it could become.
We fell in love with the location first and the challenge second. Transforming it took vision, grit, and a lot of work, but that process is exactly what gave The Noir its character. Every detail was intentional. Nothing about this place is cookie-cutter, because nothing about where it came from was either.
What stands here now is a professionally designed luxury lake house in Granbury, Texas, perfectly positioned at the point where Long Creek meets Lake Granbury and the Brazos River. This private waterfront setting offers sweeping lake views, stunning sunsets, abundant wildlife, and a rare sense of peace and seclusion that is almost impossible to find this close to DFW.
Surrounded by nature, guests regularly spot deer moving through the brush and a wide variety of birds wading along the shoreline, making the backyard a true bird-watcher's paradise. Excellent fishing and kayaking are right outside your door, with four top-quality kayaks available for guest use.
Thoughtful Design & Open Living
The Noir is a single-level barndominium lake house that sleeps up to 12 guests, making it one of the top large group vacation rentals on Lake Granbury. Whether you are planning a family reunion, a girls' weekend, a corporate team retreat, or a wellness getaway in Texas, this property was built to deliver.
A dramatic 16-foot wall of glass anchors the living and kitchen area, framing breathtaking lake views and flooding the space with natural light. The primary bedroom includes a 12-foot sliding glass door that opens directly onto a private patio, perfect for morning coffee or winding down in the evening while watching wildlife along the water's edge. A pink pool table anchors the open living area, adding a bold design moment and a favorite gathering spot for guests of all ages.
Best Outdoor Amenities on Lake Granbury
The outdoor space at The Noir was built to be the main event, and it delivers one of the most complete outdoor resort experiences of any vacation rental on Lake Granbury or the Brazos River.
A full sport pool anchors the backyard, outfitted with both basketball and volleyball setups, the kind of setup that keeps groups entertained for hours. When the temperature drops, the heated hot tub and barrel sauna with glass lake views keep the outdoor experience going year-round. The combination of sport pool, heated hot tub, and barrel sauna alone sets this property apart from nearly every other Texas lake house rental in the region.

Wellness Retreat on the Water
The Noir is one of the few vacation rentals in Texas that offers a true wellness experience on the water. The barrel sauna with lake views, heated hot tub, vintage cold plunge tub, and tranquil natural setting make it an ideal destination for wellness retreats, recovery weekends, and anyone looking to disconnect and reset in nature. Pair that with four kayaks, a lakeside fire pit, and wildlife at your doorstep, and you have a property that delivers genuine restoration.

The home is fully covered by a high-speed mesh Wi-Fi system, making it ideal for both relaxation and remote work. A Bluetooth-controlled indoor sound system enhances your stay, and an EV charger is available for guest use (nominal fee applies).
