About this property

A Little Patch of Heaven in the Texas Hill Country!

Nestled in the heart of one of the most scenic parts of the Texas Hill Country, our fully-furnished ranch offers the perfect getaway for everyone. With 100+ acres of private property to explore, you can escape the noise and crowds of everyday life for true peace and quality time with your loved ones. Relax with a book on the wrap-around porches while enjoying the scenery and listening to the voices of nature. Hike together on the property for a chance to see vibrant birds or deer off the beaten path. Whether it is solitude or communion that you desire, this is your Little Patch of Heaven.

While offering the sweet seclusion of the Texas Hill Country, the ranch is just a 15-20 minute drive to nearby attractions, including restaurants and the Concan Country Club. Have a blast with the kids tubing down the Frio River or watch an authentic Texas rodeo! Explore a couple of the Hill Country’s nearby parks: our place is 9 miles from Lost Maples State Natural Area and 28 miles to Garner State Park!

After a day of fun and adventure, retreat back to our cozy ranch to cook dinner on the charcoal grill where you can delight in the glorious moonrise or a magnificent display of unveiled stars.

Though secluded, our ranch is considerately furnished with all the amenities you may need to relax, from the kitchenware and utensils to the linens, towels, and comfortable mattresses. Your stay includes gracious and personal service from the owners, before, during, and after your trip. Trade your busy, demanding surroundings for wildlife, beautiful views, and the people you cherish most. Come re-discover the meaning of leisure in a little patch of earth we call--Heaven!

"Heaven on Earth"
You can not find another place that offers such attention to detail and comfort amidst a majestic setting. We were a group of 6 women, all family ranging in age from 80 to mid-30's. It was the perfect time for us to all gather, reflect, giggle, and enjoy the sights and sounds of nature. The chapel was the "icing on the cake." You can not help but feel the love that went into the property and chapel...you will leave refreshed. The owners go our of their way to assist you in any way possible. Mere words do not express the beautiful experience.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
Welcome to our ranch home! We are Thomas and Pamela Nye and are life-long residents of Corpus Christi. We have five children and eleven grandchildren. My parents have been visiting this part of the Texas Hill Country since the 1950s. Our ranch has been in the family for over 20 years and we have enjoyed many fun-filled family gatherings here. This is a very special place for experiencing the beauty of God's creation in nature and wildlife.

Why they chose this property

We chose the Texas Hill Country for its beauty and its peaceful solitude away from the busyness and stress of the city. We love the outdoors and especially hiking, bird watching, and viewing wildlife while sitting on our front porch.

What makes this property unique

You can enjoy hiking to the source of our natural spring, watching a beautiful moon rise up over the valley, or stargazing on a clear, cool night. This unique place is special for families who want to spend time together and make unforgettable memories.
