We three 50-something women throw off our responsibilities for a week each summer and stay at this lovely ranch. This was year four for us. We spend hours in the pool, at the kitchen table, on the couches talking, eating, laughing. Getting away from it all is the point, and Southern Star Ranch offers us that.
We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful home. It was exceptionally clean and comfortable. We appreciated the efficient air conditioning in the Texas summer heat. The outdoor spaces are incredible and the pool and outdoor kitchen are perfect for family gatherings. I highly recommend this property and will plan to stay here on future visits to the area.
Absolutely beautiful backyard with scenic view, pool, fire pit, grill and smoker. House was so clean and comfortable. Amazing beds and huge kitchen. Very convenient to Houston area or Brenham area. Easy to find but set aside in the quiet country. We will stay again!
The house and pool are wonderful. The property manager is great showed us around and how things worked. Would gladly stay again. Thank you for the hospitality!
This is our third visit to this amazing property. Have traveled here with friends in past but this time brought 11 year old grand daughter. We had a great time. Wonderful views great pool and lots of fun. Great host and hostess . This is a great place to stay and we travel allot.
The home is on a beautiful piece of land. It sits back off of the road like an estate. It had everything we needed. We enjoyed early mornings drinking coffee on the pool deck. We even seen a deer! Would definitely recommend. The host was so kind and accommodating. 5 out of 5 stars
Our stay was sweet, clean, comfortable, and relaxing! I packed everything I thought I’d need, and whatever I didn’t pack was available to us there. The beds were comfy and the night was breezy and calm. We definitely plan on returning next summer!!!
This is a lovely home and the house and property are in pristine condition. The owner’s have thought of many details to make this home a great getaway.
What a wonderful vacation we had at this home.
The area is quiet and beautiful, the house was big enough for 4 adults and 3 teenagers. The property is close enough to Roundtop that you can shop all day then come relax at the house.
If we ever come back to the area, we would for sure stay at this property again.
We had a great stay. The property is absolutely beautiful, and just secluded enough to be extraordinarily peaceful.
The host was an absolute pleasure, very easy to communicate with. Her mother met us to show us around, and she was a total sweetheart.
The home was immaculate! The home, the property and even every single dish and utensil. We’ve stayed at a lot of B-n-B properties, this was the cleanest by far.
We would absolutely stay here again! We can’t wait until our travels bring us back to the Houston area!
This was a wonderful retreat. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the time at this beautiful property. The owner was helpful and responsive. Highly recommend. Thank you!
This is our second stay at Southern Star. We had an amazing time again. The home is spotless. The pool and outdoor kitchen area is spectacular. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking to have a fun and relaxing time away from home. It is a five-star property.
Property was wonderful. The house had lots of space for everyone. We built a fire outside in the fire pit, which was so much fun. We will definitely return!!
We were in town for a baseball tournament and this house was almost exactly right in the middle of the two locations we had to play at. House was a great place to unwind between games.
This was an amazing stay! From greeting from the owner who showed us about the house and property to the totally Beautiful home and property with everything you need. It was perfect!! We hope to be back soon. Perez Family
What an amazing property. My brother and I flew in for a family function. We were greeted by Madeline, who was great and gave us a quick tour of the property and made us feel welcome. The kitchen was fully stocked with anything you may need for your stay. We found ourselves spending most of the time we were at the property in the outdoor space, the pool and outdoor kitchen are amazing.
We love this place! This home is absolutely beautiful. We were met by the Owner's mom who was the absolute sweetest. She gave us a tour of the property and how everything works. We held a Leadership Retreat for our Leadership Team for the Black Heritage Committee of the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.The amenities and space were perfect. We will definitely be back with our family. The home was clean and if you forgot anything, trust me they have it! Thank you for an amazing weekend!
Each year 5 of us friends get together for a mini vacation and this was our 3rd year here. The owners are really nice and helpful if you need anything. The property is exactly how it's described. You're in the country able to relax but not to far if you need to go to the store. We spend lots of time in the pool, especially since it's so hot then in the evenings we cook and relax. Definitely recommend staying here and we will be back again next year!! Thank you guys again for allowing us to stay!!
