Outdoor sitting area to sit around and stargaze. Relax on the hammock under the stars and count how many shooting stars you can spot. Gas grill also provided.

We are in a "light free" area. No street lights or light pollution from any nearby town/city. All exterior lights are either controlled by an interior switch or motion activated to help provide the best celestial viewing.

Numerous wildlife located on the property.

Wifi is included but we can not guarantee the efficiency of service due to our rural location and all buildings having a metal roof.

We can arrange for other activities on our property with prior notice: Yoga, Hunting (deer, hog, turkey), skeet shooting, target practice, etc. Wish to host a yoga retreat? We can help as one of our team members is a yoga instructor and a certified wine sommelier.
We can also help with a list of shuttles that can arrange a day of visiting the local wineries and distilleries in the area.

There are exterior security cameras and game cameras on the property.

We look forward to your visit to our little piece of the Texas Hill Country
