Great place to stay when visiting family. My little nephew loved exploring the property! Definitely a great place to go to escape the city and get fresh air

Hi Victoria! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay! Hope to see you in San Saba again soon!
A charming older, and slightly funky (in a good way) house off a dirt road in the country. We loved it! So quiet and peaceful. A short drive into the cute town of San Saba. Would definitely stay again, if I'm in the area. The host was very accomodating.
Thank you so much for a great stay! We arrived on a full moon and walking around the ranch at night was so magical. We got to say hi to some cows one afternoon and the house itself had everything we needed and more. Would highly recommend for a group that craves space, a unique experience and plenty of Texas charm. Thanks again!

The home was clean and orderly. The TV and Gate remotes didn’t work, so I downloaded a tv remote and was able to get by. Would have been nice had those devices been tested so they would have worked. The only shower, the shower head need to be cleaned so water comes, not easy to take a shower. Overall, a nice place in the country.

Hi Ken!
Appreciate your feedback. We are glad you enjoyed the stay overall and are very sorry for any trouble you had during your stay. I just wanted to let you know that we have replaced the shower head and addressed the remote issues. Thanks again for staying with us and we hope you will come back the next time you are in the area!
We rented this house to stay in while hiking at Colorado Bend State Park. We had seven adults and everyone was comfortable and had plenty of space.
The kitchen had everything we needed, including complimentary pecan roasted coffee and espresso machine.
The master has a beautiful high tech whirlpool tub. Everyone wanted to enjoy it, but we could never figure out how to get enough hot water to fill it (it holds a lot more water than a standard tub). Since we couldn't use the tub, we did all have to share a single shower. Other than that, we absolutely loved the house and property.

We are so happy you enjoyed your stay at the ranch! We are sorry for the trouble with the hot water in the master bath and are sending someone out this afternoon to check it for us. We would love to have you back anytime you are in San Saba!
