Historic lodging on the banks of the Llano River and One Block to Main Street

The Ratliff Retreat provides modern amenities for your comfort and convenience, while retaining the original charm of our historic 1870s Texas Hill Country home.

The Ratliff also has a screened in back porch to enjoy the Texas Hill Country evenings in a peaceful setting while winding down after a day of sight seeing or shopping. Relax in vintage farmhouse-style comfort just one block from historic downtown Llano, TX. Whatever your pleasure, you are sure to find plenty of activities and attractions nearby. Start your day in your own kitchenette with a small fridge and microwave, stocked with a light un-hosted breakfast.
