About this property

The Grey House at Lighthouse Hill Ranch - Pet & ATV friendly - 2,001 acre ranch

"The Grey House" is in the ranch interior at the top of a hill and has the best ground floor views of any of the ranch houses. The house has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms with a full kitchen and a washer/dryer. You only need to pack your overnight bag, we have thought of everything you will need to make your stay comfortable. The house sleeps 8 people, and up to 10 with the use of the queen sleeper-sofa in the living room (all linens are provided.) The master bedroom has a king size bed and a full bath. The other two bedrooms have a shared hall bath (one of these bedrooms has two queen beds and the other bedroom has two twin beds).

The kitchen is furnished with coffeemaker (coffee, filters, creamer, sugar, Splenda), pots, pans, stove, refrigerator, microwave, glassware, dishes, silverware, linens, serving bowls, cooking utensils, misc. spices, knife block, toaster, paper towels, napkins, basic condiments in the fridge, and spices in the cabinet for cooking, etc.

The living area has leather furnishings where you can put your feet up and read a good book, watch DirectTV with movie channels, or head into town and rent a DVD to watch on the television. There is no telephone but there is an internet connection in the house if you really must stay in touch with those everyday hassles!

The front porch has beautiful views of the Hill Country and a fire pit with 'rocking' chairs that you can sit in an enjoy a great fire. There's plenty of wood out on the ranch - burn all you want! There is also a table and four chairs that you can use to have a meal outside. In addition, we also have a charcoal Weber grill for outdoor cooking (charcoal provided).

If you wish to bring your dog or your horse we have accommodations for them as well. The back deck is fenced and can be used to contain your dog. We ask that you keep them off the furniture and beds and you are required to bring a crate to house them in when you are away from the house ($30 per night per pet stay fee - to be added to your quote after you book). For horses, we have a pipe fenced paddock directly behind the Red House with water & feed troughs as well as a run-in and tack area to keep your tack and feed dry (please note that you will need to rent the Red House as well to bring horses).

Lighthouse Hill Ranch is situated in the beautiful Texas Hill Country on 2,001 acres. With this much land it is your own private park to enjoy (see pictures for a map of the property). The ranch consists of rolling hills, incredible 50 mile views, and has one of the highest point in Blanco County. Enjoy the abundance of wildlife on the ranch from cattle, bird watching, deer, turkey, coyotes, armadillos, jackrabbits, doves and variety of other animals.

Rental of any of our houses or suites provides you access to the entire ranch (both tracts), which has numerous springs, over 4,000 feet of clear rock-bottom creek to swim and tube in (and including a unique creekside hot tub and waterfall grotto), 8 ponds to fish, a seasonal waterfall and miles of trails for riding your own ATV and bikes, hiking or riding your own horse.

In addition, we have five other homes on the ranch available for rental (no two houses are within 1/2 mile of each other) as well as 4 suites at the Arc de Texas. You can find them listed here on Vrbo, simply search Lighthouse Hill Ranch and you can see our 9 other rentals.

We look forward to having you at Lighthouse Hill Ranch!

Its a great property. Very quiet and private.
We loved it and will be back when the water is flowing again. We went during a drought, but still had water in pools and hot tubs.

Wonderful secluded getaway
We enjoyed our stay at the Gray House. We had a lot going on so unfortunately did not get a chance to explore the ranch like we wanted to, ran out of time, but we did get some nice walks in and just enjoyed the quiet and the scenery. The house was spotless upon our arrival and the host was great with communication.

About the host

Hosted by Kathy Meyertons

Host profile image
My husband and I purchased the ranch in 2004 for our enjoyment and for our 4 kids. It is absolutely the best purchase we've ever made. We love going to the ranch and swimming/tubing in the creek, fishing in the ponds, riding mountain bikes and ATVs on the trails, hiking the woods, and just generally enjoying a campfire with lots of stars on a clear night.

Because the ranch has one of the highest point in the county, we can see for 50 miles on clear days - and there's lots of clear days in this part of the country. There are 2 horses and 3 longhorns (along with a herd of 'regular' cattle) - it's fun to feed these animals, and our dog (Titan) loves to chase the big animals (that is, until they get irritated and turn and chase him).
