This is a great place for a weekend get away. It is quite and has a great country feel. I would recommend this place to anyone needing a place in central Texas.
The booking and questions we had from our host were done so smoothly. The home was beautiful and so clean. Our family LOVED it. We had a family wedding to attend and it was going to be outdoors on a farm not too far away. The weather was windy, cold and rainy, not the best combination for an outdoor wedding. But we knew that a warm house, bath and bed were waiting for us to greet us after everything. Would highly recommend this property to anyone needing a get away place.
My family and I stayed at Bluebonnet Ridge for the weekend of a family wedding and it was the perfect location! We had more than enough room for our family and the surrounding area is beautiful. Our host was very accommodating and let us have a late check out so we could host a family brunch the day after the wedding.
The house, views, and open spaces were even better than anticipated, and the host is very nice with great communication. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay again
This is one of my favorites in Belton. Quiet and remote very comfortable and a lovely home. So close to everything it is truly a great location. Highly recommend !!!
Our family members met at the house for a family reunion.
The setting of the house is charming and quiet. Everyone enjoyed the house. The kids loved the upstairs area. And the guys enjoyed the outside areas. The living room and kitchen area accommodated all of us when we gather together. The house is well stocked with everything you need. We would stay at this property again.
We loved our stay at this home! We got to meet one of the owners and he was very kind and helpful! We loved learning about the farm and its history. The home is updated but keeps its county and historical beautify! It accommodated all 14 of us! The king back porch looking out over the landscape was the best!
We returned for another wonderful stay at Blubonnet Ridge. Perfect for families. The home is spotless and equipped with everything. Kitchen is well stocked. Close to the cute town of Salado. Helena is great. Highly recommend.
Our family had a wonderful time at this location. The house was perfect for the 8 adults and smaller children. The house was large and very comfortable. The communication with host was easy and excellent. We were under a severe storm warning, as well as a tornado warning one evening, and the host quickly responded to our questions. Would stay here again with no hesitation.
property is off the beaten path in a very peaceful setting.
everything was super clean. pretty much everything we needed such as towels, soap, dish soap, etc,etc was furnished. the property manager was extremely fast at responding to any communication we had. I would highly recommend this rental
Bluebonnet is a lovely spacious home in a country setting. It was perfect for our family to gather as we celebrated our granddaughter’s wedding. The living spaces had lots of room and the porch’s were a nice quiet place to sit and have conversation while enjoying the view. Helena was wonderful with her communication
This could not have been a more perfect fit for our family! The beds were comfy (great linens!), the modern kitchen fully equipped for making meals, more than ample lounging space in the main living room, super clean, and the view off the back porch is “worth the price of the ticket”. It is so delightful when the reality is even better than the advertisement! Hope to be back soon.
The house is beautiful and clean. There was plenty of room for our family and we enjoyed rocking on the porch. They have farm toys and swings available fir the kiddos which was great. There’s even a Little Free Library across the highway.
We spent the weekend in Belton for a family wedding at the nearby Rustic Acres Event Center. It was the PERFECT location.
Bluebonnet Ridge is a jewel in the Texas countryside. Beautiful views of live oaks and deer off the back porch. The kitchen is open, well equipped and easy to move about in. It lacked for nothing and we spent three nights. The dining room table handled eight of us easily. Bedrooms were cute and comfortable. Our favorite area to gather was the loving room and the three comfy couches several movies were watched and lots of talking took place. Communication between host and our group was excellent—the best I have ever encountered in a vacation rental. We look forward to another stay perhaps next spring when the bluebonnets are blooming.
Very nice home that gave us a quiet place that we were looking for. It has easy access to i35 for the trips to waco or Killeen.
Salado is a short hop if you need to score some points with your lady at their small town shops.
It is impossible for the pictures to capture how pretty this farm is off both porches. The house is nicely done and well stocked. Property owners were also great to work with.
I will likely stay again when we visit the area in the future.
Visited Bell County from Friday thru Sunday in late July 2023. The location is EZ to find and not far from the interstate and the city. The home is very clean, spacious, and inviting for visitors. Helena has everything labeled and everything you would need for a visit. The property is great for cross-country walking, and the white-tail deer are out and visible. We really enjoyed our stay and will return if our next dates are available. Thanks. Mark
