About this property

Rustic Soul, Modern Comfort | Relax on the Ranch

Step back in time (literally - the Pioneer bedroom is the original cabin built in the 1870's!) while still enjoying all the modern comforts you love. Grand Oaks Ranch is a 5-bedroom, 3-bath getaway on 22 peaceful acres with a pool, hot tub, game barn, and plenty of space to stretch out.

Unwind by the pool, sip wine at sunset, roast s’mores in the fire pit, or take on your friends in a late-night ping pong battle. Whether you’re here with family, friends, or a wedding party, this is the Hill Country retreat you’ll be talking about long after you leave.

Want more time? We get it. For a small upgrade, you can lock in a late checkout (sleep in, sip coffee, swim one more time) or an early check-in (start the fun sooner). Availability depends on the calendar, so just ask before or when you book and we’ll see if we can make it happen.

FEATURES
- Four King beds, two Queens, three built-in twins and one twin-size daybed
- Pool and hot tub (see 'Other Info' for pool heat details)
- Game Barn with shuffleboard, ping pong, poker and dining tables
- Huge fire pit
- Two desks for remote work and/or learning
- Fully appointed kitchen with dual coffee maker, toaster, blender, tea kettle, cookware, serving utensils...
- Gas grill
- 75" smart TV for streaming (No cable. C'mon, it's the mid-1800s)
- Two bedrooms have smart TVs (same as above)
- Living room fireplace
- Cornhole
- Two Pack n Plays and two high chairs for the little ones
- Optional Extended Time Upgrade: guaranteed early check-in or late checkout available for a fee, subject to availability. Please inquire before or at booking if you’d like to add this to your stay.

SETUP
- The King bed Pioneer Room (the entire original cabin circa 1848) and the double Queen room are off the dining area and share a bath with standup shower.
- The double King bed room is on its own wing, down the hall from the kitchen, with a full bath just outside its door.
- The upstairs King bedroom shares a shower bathroom with the 3-twin bunk room.

We had the most wonderful stay for our annual family vacation with our two adult children and their families. We had 6 kids aged 2-13, and 6 adults. We explored Fredricksburg, Enchanted Rock and LBJ State Park and downtown area. The kids loved the house, pool, animals, game barn, turfed soccer , etc. This place was our favorite so far and I hope to return with the family again.

Incredible stay!

So many great things about this location. 1. This home is so well stocked! From the coffee bar, to the kitchen supplies, to the most luxurious down pillows, to the abundance of towels. 2. The owner was overly helpful and kind. He would turn the hot tub on and off for us. Providing the perfect temperature.
