Thank you so much for reviewing my cabin. I love sharing my beautiful ranch with my guest. I hope you come again, you are always welcome. It’s so nice when people like you take such wonderful care of my property.
We had an amazing stay while celebrating our 24th anniversary, and we truly couldn’t have chosen a better place. It was quiet, peaceful, and exactly what we needed for a relaxing getaway. The many thoughtful personal touches made our experience even more special and memorable. Thank you for your hospitality and for helping make our anniversary celebration so wonderful!
We walked into what felt like a 4 star hotel. Everything was provided, a welcome bottle of wine, snack basket and even dog treats and dog bed! The cabin is adorable. We didn't want to leave. Would definitely stay here again.

I just now saw your review! You need to do my write up for cabin! Great job! Enjoyed hosting you and now you return in July! I look forward to to seeing you again!
Upon our arrival we were greeted by the very friendly host. We entered the ranch through a gate with code giving us a feeling of security. The cabin was very cozy and had everything we needed for our stay. The washing machine and dryer were first class. The property was pet friendly and we were allowed to walk the 100 acres and enjoy the outdoors that included wild deer and turkey. The oak trees on the property were magnificent. There will be another stay at this property for us in the future.

I’m just seeing all the beautiful pictures my guest have taken! I could make a photo album just from my guest! Please come again, you were a great guest!
There are no words to truly describe this place but I’ll try. Peaceful…Serene…Stunning…Calming…You have to believe God loves Texas when you’re here. It was truly hard to leave and get back to the real world. And although we didn’t get to meet our hostess (our fault) our communication with her was thoughtful and thorough. The pictures and description don’t do this place justice. Thank you again Nancy for a beautiful weekend!

Thanks so much, Travis! If every guest was like you everyone would be a host. You kept my cabin so nice and respected my property. You are welcome back anytime!
This cabin is a true get away! The owner provides such thoughtful personal touches to every part of our stay! We had the privilege of meetings her on our first visit. We're now planning our third stay!!Waking up to wide open space and seclusion of this cabin was exactly what we needed to unwind from the daily grind. The surroundings towns make our visits even more interesting. A true gem

Sorry I’m just getting to check reviews! Thank you so much for all the kind words! It’s hosting guest like you that makes it all worthwhile! The cabin is calling you! Lol
This cabin was wonderful! Beautiful view, spacious bedroom and a great little patio area for watching the night sky. Felt secluded even with the host onsite. Close to Boerne, Bandera and we went into San Antonio to the River walk which was about an hour away. The cabin was clean and uncluttered which I really appreciate. Check in was a cinch and they even had a dog bed and bowls for our furry travel buddy.
Our stay here was absolutely incredible — honestly one of the best VRBO experiences we’ve ever had. My aunt and I traveled here with my two horses, and this place was a dream for both us and the horses. The property had 2 stalls connected to a huge turnout pasture, a massive arena to ride and let the horses run, and over 350 acres of beautiful trails. We spent hours riding through the hills, crossing creeks, and making our way up to the bluff overlooking the water. It was breathtaking. One of my favorite parts was being able to sit at the cabin and overlook my horses grazing while also seeing the 8th largest oak tree in Texas right from the property. It was peaceful, relaxing, and exactly what we needed. Nancy was hands down the sweetest and funniest host I’ve ever met. She made us feel welcome from the second we arrived. She had snacks, a bottle of wine, and homemade cookies waiting for us, and the cabin itself was spotless. She personally showed us around the property, helped us get settled in, and gave us amazing recommendations for places to eat, dance, and explore in town. One of the coolest things was being able to ride the horses straight into Bandera — the Cowboy Capital of the World. If you want to bar hop on horseback, you actually can! Just tie your horse outside the bar. Such a fun and unique experience. We loved this place so much that we extended our stay another night, and already planning to come back! THANK YOU NANCY!
Fantastic property. Quiet, peaceful, clean, cozy, close to Bandera. Easy checkin/checkout. Dog friendly including pet bed and bowls. Host left snacks and drinks, extra toiletries, and local guides. Easy and fast communications with host. I highly recommend this property and would book again.
This was our second stay at the cabin, and it was such a wonderful place to spend Christmas week! Miss Nancy has thought of everything a visitor could possibly need. We loved walking the pasture road down to the creek with our dog every afternoon. We already have another visit booked! It's peaceful, quiet and surrounded by nature. Watching the wildlife at dawn from the upstairs porch while drinking coffee is a highlight.
This is the best VRBO I've ever stayed in, anywhere in the world. Better than advertised. The pictures do not do this place justice. It's peaceful, immaculately clean, and professionally managed. I stayed here with my dogs and felt safe, comfortable and at ease the entire time & the dogs loved it! This place feels like a hidden gem that you both want to rave about and keep secret because it's so special. Highly recommend!

About the host
Hosted by Nancy L Keller
I was born in San Antonio, Texas and have always loved the hill country. My late husband acquired the ranch in 1976, it's been in the since 1920. I enjoy sharing our home because of all the natural beauty it holds.
Why they chose this property
living on the ranch gives me tranquil lifestyle that is not obtained in the city. There is nothing like sitting outside and just hearing the birds while having coffee.
What makes this property unique
The ranch has the largest live oak, right outside the cabin, in Bandera County. There is nothing like the breeze while sitting under. It is so majestic!
