Roadrunner Canyon Ranch

No one gets left behind when you visit the Roadrunner Canyon Ranch, just eight miles from Leakey! It's a magical riverside vacation rental with tons of comforts and amenities, it's kid- and pet-friendly, It's ADA compliant, and has comfy sleeping space for up to 10 people. You'll be surrounded by jaw-dropping canyon and mountain views and plenty of wildlife, all in a peaceful and roomy vacation home. This family-friendly rental has everything that draws people to the big and beautiful Hill Country!

Roadrunner Canyon Ranch sits alongside the West Frio on ten gorgeous acres! It's a certified wildlife habitat, with natural wildflowers and plants that grow in a pristine prairie setting, which attracts lots of wildlife to the area. Nature lovers adore this waterside ranch setting, and the views of the sunsets over the mountains and river are amazing! (With the canyon setting, there's no cell service, so you'll need a Wifi compatible phone)

Let's get to the river! The property has its own direct access to the river, which flows steadily all year long. (This access point isn't ideal for folks with mobility issues, but there are three river crossings close by which are). Bring your kayaks, tubes, and other water toys in order to make the most of your private access!

Outside, you'll find plenty of social space, with a wraparound patio, deck, and a screened-in gazebo, all with plenty of outdoor furniture and shade. For snacks and cookouts, there's a charcoal grill, and even a convenient outdoor sink! The water at the ranch is filtered by a whole-home conditioning system.

Plentiful windows allow natural light to fill the interior at Roadrunner Canyon Ranch, and the home is kept comfy with central air, heat, and ceiling fans. The living area and master bedroom have Roku-ready TVs. Books and games are provided for the kids, as well as a play area with a rock-climbing wall, large slide, and loft-style hideout, with Wifi throughout all rooms. The kitchen is equipped with modern appliances, and there's even a dedicated coffee station! Need to keep up with laundry? There are two stackable washers and dryers!

Three spacious bedrooms with eight beds (two kings in the master rooms, and four doubles and two singles in the bunk room) provide restful slumber after a day of adventure! The bunk room also features its own exterior access. The two full baths have showers with double shower heads, and clean linens are provided for all bedding and bath spaces. An additional half-bath is located by the kitchen.

Family vacation. 5 adults, 2 children
The house is wonderful. Very pretty, huge windows, beautiful scenery. Kitchen was great, lots of room for numerous people and well equipped. Home was so clean. The play area with loft and slide was great for the kids. While adults are preparing meals the kids can be out there. They loved it. The water by the house was disappointing by the house. We have stayed in this area the past 3 years so have a favorite place at one of the water crossings. O.8 miles. Enjoyed it all. Cannot go wrong when renting this home.

Very nice place!
This was a really nice home within walking distance to the Frio. Lots of space for two families, and a bunk room that was perfect for the kids. The indoor clubhouse was a big hit. The house is secluded from the road, and there were so many hummingbirds, butterflies, deer, and more. We went in late July and the Frio was high enough for us to stay cool and the kids to splash and explore. Overall a lovely experience!
