We created Project Thryve to offer something increasingly rare: a place to step away without having to leave Dallas. Nivardo, a Dallas native and builder for more than 15 years, had long imagined creating a place that felt far removed from the city while still belonging to it. When we discovered this secluded 10-acre ranch hidden within Dallas, that vision found its home.

What began as a family oasis soon became something we wanted to share. Together, we’ve transformed the property into a collection of unique stays shaped by nature, thoughtful design, and a belief that our surroundings influence how we feel. Nivardo’s craftsmanship can be found throughout the cabins and gathering spaces, while Gloria brings warmth and intention to the environments within them.

Every detail has a purpose — natural materials, calming spaces, fresh air, sunlight, fire, water, and room to simply be. And Thryve is still evolving. In late  2026, the Wellness Path will introduce cedar saunas, cold plunges, nature trails, a yoga deck, and experiences centered around restoration and reflection.

Whether you come to celebrate, reconnect with someone you love, find inspiration, or simply disappear for a while, we hope you leave feeling a little more like yourself.

Project Thryve isn’t an escape from life. It’s a return to what makes it meaningful.
