Description
Open Year Round
Charles Durning came to Texas after the Civil War as a young man following his dream. He settled outside Van Alstyne and made his living hauling freight from Jefferson to this part of north Texas. This house was made from lumber he hauled sometime around the turn of the century. "Granny" Durning loved having company and entertained many neighbors and friends through the years. It is fitting that the house still beckons neighbors and friends with the warmth of yesteryear. "Granny" is probably still watching over her home.
The Bed & Breakfasts are open year round. A deposit is required with the reservation either by check or credit card. The Restaurant is open for lunch Monday-Friday 11:00-2:00. We no longer serve dinner on Friday or Saturday nights except for special occasions.
Owners of The Durning House, Brenda Hix and Sherry Heath, first opened their doors in July 1989 with the Main House. The restaurant followed Feb. 14, 1990. Then demand resulted in the construction of the Sunday House in 1995.
