We had a group of 16 women here for a church retreat. The space was awesome. Wonderful areas for small groups and individual reflection. Bedroom spaces were well appointed. The two kitchens served us well and had everything we needed. Gameroom was large enough to hold all 16 of us for nightly meetings. Property was beautiful and the river access was a plus. Alan was a great host, extremely kind and responsive. Would highly recommend for large groups.

This place was everything and more! It was the perfect place to host our large family gathering. It’s spacious, the property is beautiful and has private access to Medina River. The rooms were also very comfortable. Alan was so friendly and accommodated our needs quickly. If you are looking for a space to host large or small event, family reunion, birthday party, or even just have this beautiful property to yourself, then this is the place for you!

We had 4 generations together - 8 week old baby to 88 yr old great grandmother and it meant our needs perfectly. We live the dual kitchens, large living room and access to to the beautiful Medina River. Out door fireplace was a huge hit as well.

I couldn’t believe how beautiful and peaceful the ranch was. At the last minute, I needed extra rooms, and Mr Alan accommodated me. It was an amazing experience celebrating my daughter’s wedding. I totally recommend this ranch for anyone wanting to stay out in the Hill Country. And it’s a must-see hike towards the river. The hired photographer was in awe of the space. Again thank you Mr Alan for being there when needed and being so prompt. Your love was felt in the home through your kindness.

Nicest House in 3 Counties

I can't say enough nice things about this property. There was plenty of room for 13 adults to each have their own bed. There was room outside for us to socialize and eat. The kitchens (yes, there are 2!) both had everything we needed

Alan thanks for having us. This was our second year to stay and we will be back next April. If you plan to ride the Three Sisters there’s no better spot. Close to Bandera and the facilities are fantastic. Alan see you next year
