Great place

We had a great, 3 day stay at the Genesis Ranch. There were only two of us so we didn’t need the bunk house, but the main house is great. Clean and well appointed. Further, unlike too many hill-country ranches we have rented, it was uncluttered and new. Roby has done a great job providing a place that feels refreshing to be in. The ranch itself is beautiful too. Some great hiking trials and beautiful, exotic animals to be seen. And the spring is beautiful. It’s well worth the hike up the creek-bed to it. The hike is great and the area at the spring is magical.
