Perfect country getaway

From the perfectly decorated porch and interior, to the amazingly friendly farm animals, this property was exactly what we were looking for. Beautiful sunsets, star gazing, feeding the animals, and being located 15 mins from Marble Falls, Horseshoe Bay, and Johnson City, made this stay perfect. We will miss Milo (the super friendly bull) until we return.

Quiet and Relaxing

Our stay was just the peaceful escape we were looking for. Our pups don't do fireworks and the ranch was the perfect place for them and us too. It was secluded enough for us, yet close enough to town for a dinner run if we desired. The accommodations were great and the added bonus of the farm animals was so fun! Dana and Shawn were very friendly and helpful.

The most peaceful place on Earth.

This is the second mommy and me vacation I have taken here. My kids LOVE the animals. They are so friendly, there when you wake up, and there when you go to bed. My son loved Milo (gentle giant) and grew so attached to him that we had to go search for him after a rainstorm because my son wanted to make sure he didn't get hurt during the rain. The property is perfect for a quiet retreat. Any storm chasers out there would love this place. We were able to enjoy one of the coolest lightening storms of my life. You could see for miles as the storms rolled in and your view isn't blocked by things like it would be in the city. I will absolutely be returning in the future!
