Our Ranch offers a romantic and relaxing escape for your next getaway! Relax on the porch and watch the sky change colors, or watch the numerous wildlife and birds. You can see deer, foxes, armadillos, road runners, rare birds and more! In the kitchen, you'll find all the essentials- stove, oven, refrigerator, dishwasher, built in microwave, K-cup and drip coffee maker and Folgers Black Silk coffee. Prepare delicious meals inside or out on the pavilion on our propane grill with a view! When it's time to unwind, retreat to the bathroom stocked with towels and basic toiletries, or take advantage of the central air conditioning/heat, comfortable beds & linens to enjoy a restful night's sleep. For added convenience, you can park under our carport, use hair dryer, an iron and board, and a selection of games, books, or just watch the wildlife from big front windows.

We've had three wonderful stays at this incredibly peaceful, comfortable place. So restful to watch the sun set over the hills, watch the birds, foxes, and armadillos, and hike around exploring the property. Owners are very helpful and responsive. Kitchen is well equipped, and there are nice details like binoculars for guests. We'll be back!

About the host

Hosted by The Hunter Family

We have lived in this home on weekends and it is a perfect place to get a away from it all! We feel like we are on vacation every time we come here! Guests also notice the awesome view and how quiet it is. It's definitely out in the country. Good restaurants around or cook on the outdoor propane grill (with a view) or in the fully equipped kitchen. Our home is 15 years old and decorated in Hill Country charm! We hope you like it as much as our family does! Valerie and Keith

Why they chose this property

Best get away from it all! We bought and built this property because of the wonderful views of the Hill Country. You can't see another house from our large picture windows! It's really neat at night to see the stars or during a storm with it's panoramic views. Relax on the porch and look out for 50 miles from our hilltop home! Visit the local wineries and drink a few glasses of wine at sunset admiring the view and the wild life.

What makes this property unique

Lots of wildlife and birds to observe and enjoy! Awesome views out the many windows or from the front porch. We see whitetail deer, raccoons, fox, armadillos, wild pigs, Sage Jays, Painted Buntings, Hummingbirds and more! Very quiet, secluded and beautiful.
Enjoy our ranch by hiking or sit and enjoy the views and deer, fox, armadillos coming by in the front yard!
Great location for many day trips to the fun and historic towns of the Hill Country or just to be on a quiet ranch with lots of land!
