This place was awesome. Having the Pool, fire pit with wood and the fishing pond were all a nice bonus! The owners were the nicest people and made sure everything was perfect. 15 minutes from the casino if that’s your thing. Less than 5 minutes from the lake if you want to bring your boat.

Our favorite place

We love this place and it was our second time staying here. Definitely want to make this our yearly summer vacation. The kids love the pool, the game room and fishing. It’s a prefect location to get away from every day life and enjoy the outdoors.

GREAT family trip!

We really enjoyed our stay at this ranch! Hosts greeted us the first day and answered any questions we had. With 3 generations of family - it was wonderful to be able to keep us ALL busy! The pool, the pond, the pool table, and the firepit were all used throughout the weekend! Everyone especially loved seeing all the livestock in the fields. Thanks again for a very memorable weekend for our entire family!

Amazing Time at the Farm House

Our group of 10 plus our dog had a wonderful time at this home. So many things to do, from the game room to the pool. We were never bored. Being able to sit outside and just admire the beauty of your surroundings. It was very peaceful. Highlight of the trip was being able to feed the horses and go fishing.

Family Reunion

For my family, it was a really good place for a reunion. Out of town guests did not have to go to a motel. For family that lives close by, it was just a short drive. The house had everything we needed. We enjoyed watching the animals. We plan on doing it again next year.

Tex’s Ranch is amazing place to stay

We were a group of 10 adults. The VRBO description and pictures were exactly what this ranch was. The house has ample space for a group and was as described, the rooms and beds were comfortable .it was so peaceful and the views were breathtaking, Sunrise to sunset. The pool was refreshing and fishing in the pond was an added plus. The game room was a fun place to hang out after dark. It is definitely a place we would go to again. Every one had a wonderful time. The owners came by to meet us and were very friendly..it was a great retreat from the city.

Perfect Family Vacations: Beauty, Privacy, and Endless Fun at Tex’s Ranch

Tex’s Ranch was perfect for our family gatherings, giving us a peaceful and fun escape with awesome fishing, including catfishing, bass, and crappie. The place also had a fantastic pool and activities like feeding the horse and playing pool. It had everything we needed to keep us all happy, balancing relaxation and fun for our group aged 3 to 75. We loved the peaceful mornings watching the sunrise and drinking coffee, and hanging out in the spacious outdoor area by the fire. This was our fourth family trip here, and the friendly, responsive owners and comfy accommodations made it an amazing stay. Thank you for your hospitality, we can’t wait to come back!

Serene and Absolutely Beautiful

The pictures do not do this property justice. It was so much larger than I expected from the pictures and there was more than enough room for all of our family. The owners came by and introduced themselves to make sure we had everything we needed and gave us sugar cubes to feed the horses. By day 2 we were already planning our next trip back.
