GREAT family trip!

We really enjoyed our stay at this ranch! Hosts greeted us the first day and answered any questions we had. With 3 generations of family - it was wonderful to be able to keep us ALL busy! The pool, the pond, the pool table, and the firepit were all used throughout the weekend! Everyone especially loved seeing all the livestock in the fields. Thanks again for a very memorable weekend for our entire family!

Tex’s Ranch is amazing place to stay

We were a group of 10 adults. The VRBO description and pictures were exactly what this ranch was. The house has ample space for a group and was as described, the rooms and beds were comfortable .it was so peaceful and the views were breathtaking, Sunrise to sunset. The pool was refreshing and fishing in the pond was an added plus. The game room was a fun place to hang out after dark. It is definitely a place we would go to again. Every one had a wonderful time. The owners came by to meet us and were very friendly..it was a great retreat from the city.

This is a great property and great hosts. The property was clean and well cared for. The pool was clean. Views are gorgeous. We had a family wedding to attend and hosted the rehearsal dinner at this location. Our guests loved it. We used the bbq and Flatstone grill, swam and had great food and fun. Our kids and some of their friends stayed with us and there was plenty of room. Great kitchen and outdoor area. Can't say enough about how the home was an asset to provide a great family get together. Thank you.

Graduation Celebration & Family Vacation

We were celebrating our grand sons graduation. This is a really great place and a really nice house. Everything was updated and it is stocked with all the essentials you need. It's big enough to handle a large family gathering, with plenty of space to spread out and a great living room and kitchen for everyone to come together. We were there in the middle of a typical Texas Heat Wave so hanging out in the pool was essential. It has a very large back porch area with plenty of tables and seating. We used the Blackstone for every meal. The fishing pond was a lot of fun.We caught a few bass. There are a ton of big catfish in there but we couldn't get them to bite. Everyone enjoyed their stay. The host are really nice and very quick to respond to any question.

Serene and Absolutely Beautiful

The pictures do not do this property justice. It was so much larger than I expected from the pictures and there was more than enough room for all of our family. The owners came by and introduced themselves to make sure we had everything we needed and gave us sugar cubes to feed the horses. By day 2 we were already planning our next trip back.

Amazing Time at the Farm House

Our group of 10 plus our dog had a wonderful time at this home. So many things to do, from the game room to the pool. We were never bored. Being able to sit outside and just admire the beauty of your surroundings. It was very peaceful. Highlight of the trip was being able to feed the horses and go fishing.

Perfect Family Vacations: Beauty, Privacy, and Endless Fun at Tex’s Ranch

Tex’s Ranch was perfect for our family gatherings, giving us a peaceful and fun escape with awesome fishing, including catfishing, bass, and crappie. The place also had a fantastic pool and activities like feeding the horse and playing pool. It had everything we needed to keep us all happy, balancing relaxation and fun for our group aged 3 to 75. We loved the peaceful mornings watching the sunrise and drinking coffee, and hanging out in the spacious outdoor area by the fire. This was our fourth family trip here, and the friendly, responsive owners and comfy accommodations made it an amazing stay. Thank you for your hospitality, we can’t wait to come back!

A HIDDEN JEWEL: Unforgettable Stay with Something for Everyone at Tex’s Ranch!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Tex’s Ranch, and it was an unforgettable experience! The house itself was incredibly well-equipped. The kitchen had everything we needed, making it easy to prepare meals without a hitch. And let me tell you, the pictures do not do this place justice! The view of the pond and the valley behind the house is simply breathtaking. The pool area was a hit with the kids, and I appreciated the pergola with its soft lighting at night, providing a perfect spot to relax out of the sun. The dock on the pond was another favorite spot. We enjoyed watching the fish come up to eat when the feeder went off and soaking in the tranquility of the water. The owners, Tex and Deb, are one of a kind, ensuring we were welcomed and had all that we needed One of the highlights for me was the open spaces where my dog could run and play safely away from the roads. The large yard had plenty of room to roam, and the horses and longhorn cows added a unique charm that I loved seeing every day. To top it all off, we even spotted an eagle with a nest nearby, which was a spectacular sight. This property truly offers something for everyone to enjoy. It is located at the end of a country road, far from any highway, it provided the peace and quiet that I desperately needed to escape from my busy life. Tex’s Ranch is a true jewel, and I can’t wait to return!

Great place bad timing

This is an amazing place, but when we went, the pool wasn’t working and a thunder storm caused the power to go out. The power was not restored so the next day we had to leave at 5 pm (still without power.) We had to leave a day early because of this.

Ranch Relaxation

Loved our stay! We were visiting from DFW & east Texas for a family getaway. It was so quiet and peaceful. The house had ample space for us to spread out or sit together to enjoy a meal or watch a movie. We really enjoyed the pool and the pond. The ducks at the pond were super friendly and we could hear them “talking” all day. You cannot beat the sunrises and view! It was lovely! Tex and Deb are wonderful hosts and we’re readily available during our stay. Would 100% recommend this place for anyone wanting a quiet, secluded, country getaway.
