We had a wonderful time. Our plans to float the river were actually cancelled due to thunderstorms. The home had plenty alternatives to occupy our party of 12. Everything was clean, instructions clearly posted for any questions that came up, we really had a great time!

Fabulous House!

Our friend group of 25 years meets annually for a weekend get away. Everyone loved this house! It is 120 years old, but it is in excellent condition and beautiful! We were still noticing gorgeous details in all the rooms up until the last day. The view from the back of the house is spectacular. The game room is amazing, and we had so much fun playing shuffleboard and pool.

Amazingly wonderful home

Property was very clean and much larger than I expected. Stayed with family and a friend with her husband and two grandchildren.

We booked our stay at Rimrock Ranch property, but due to a minor pool issue, we stayed at Bendigo Ranch. Our stay was fabulous and Shiloh with Vacation Property Masters provided outstanding service! Will definitely be back!

This place was awesome. Plenty of room for our party of 13. The pool and hot tub were so cool to enjoy on a hot day with one of the best views I’ve seen in central Texas. We wouldn’t look anywhere else if coming back to this area.

Fantastic family time

We rented the house for a place to be while my son and his new bride got married in San Marcos. The house was beautiful and plenty of room for everyone. My only concern was there were no dressers in the bedrooms to put our clothes away. We were there for nearly a week and would highly recommend. Definitely will look to booking this again if we head back to Hill country in Texas. The views were out of this world. It certainly was the icing on the cake to a very wonderful wedding with family.

Room with a view

Four couples shared the home during New Year's Eve and had a wonderful time. The amenities with the outdoor grill and hot tub are great but it was the location that made the whole weekend. The view from the bedrooms, living area and back porch are spectacular! If you want a hill country experience, this is the place.

Beautiful historic home with stunning views

Beautiful historic home with stunning views. My friends and I came for a girls weekend. The owners have done a beautiful job updating this home yet keeping It’s historic ambience and decor. It was extremely comfortable and the property is just spectacular. Unfortunately we had a little cold snap come through so we weren’t able to enjoy the outside area as much as we would’ve liked to.

Ridge View

It was a great house with amazing view. We were disappointed that the pool was not maintained (very cloudy water). We would have liked to have used it since the temps were in the nineties. If the pool would have been clean it would have definitely been a 5 star review.

About the host

Hosted by Shiloh Collins

Host profile image
Phil and Peggy Collins bought this house in late 2015. We own other vacation rental properties in San Marcos, Wimberley, and Coldspring, Texas, as well as in Evergreen, Colorado. Phil and Peggy have owned vacation rental properties in this are since 2005, and are living here full time. Our Son Michael, and his wife Shiloh moved up here in 2016, and manage all of these properties full time.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property for the amazing views, privacy, and close proximity to Wimberley, San Marcos, Austin, and San Antonio. We really love the character and charm of older homes and were very excited to update the original 1905 house on the property. This house was built as a professor's house at Southwest Teachers Institute ( became SWTSU, then TSU ) in San Marcos. The house was moved onto this site by the previous owner back in 1988. It had been sitting unused for several years when we bought it, and then we did a complete update and remodel. We think that you will love this house as much as we do.

What makes this property unique

This is a very special property. It gives all of the charm of a 1905 victorian home, with all of the modern comforts and conveniences that we are used to. The house is over 4,000 sq ft, so it allows for larger groups, with enough room so that everyone is not underfoot all the time. The views from every floor are just incredible. The rock work on the outside adds hill country charm, as guests enjoy the hot tub, fire pit, BBQ area, and other walking paths.
