About this property

Roadrunner Canyon Ranch sits alongside the West Frio on ten gorgeous acres! It's a certified wildlife habitat, with natural wildflowers and plants that grow in a pristine prairie setting, which attracts lots of wildlife to the area. Nature lovers adore this waterside ranch setting, and the views of the sunsets over the mountains and river are amazing! (With the canyon setting, there's no cell service, so you'll need a Wifi compatible phone)

Let's get to the river! The property has its own direct access to the river, which flows steadily all year long. (This access point isn't ideal for folks with mobility issues, but there are three river crossings close by which are). Bring your kayaks, tubes, and other water toys in order to make the most of your private access!

Outside, you'll find plenty of social space, with a wraparound patio, deck, and a screened-in gazebo, all with plenty of outdoor furniture and shade. For snacks and cookouts, there's a charcoal grill, and even a convenient outdoor sink! The water at the ranch is filtered by a whole-home conditioning system.

Family vacation. 5 adults, 2 children
The house is wonderful. Very pretty, huge windows, beautiful scenery. Kitchen was great, lots of room for numerous people and well equipped. Home was so clean. The play area with loft and slide was great for the kids. While adults are preparing meals the kids can be out there. They loved it. The water by the house was disappointing by the house. We have stayed in this area the past 3 years so have a favorite place at one of the water crossings. O.8 miles. Enjoyed it all. Cannot go wrong when renting this home.

Very nice place!
This was a really nice home within walking distance to the Frio. Lots of space for two families, and a bunk room that was perfect for the kids. The indoor clubhouse was a big hit. The house is secluded from the road, and there were so many hummingbirds, butterflies, deer, and more. We went in late July and the Frio was high enough for us to stay cool and the kids to splash and explore. Overall a lovely experience!
