This is the MOST BEAUTIFUL property and the accommodations exceed any VRBO we have stayed in. Kendra and Jaque are so kind and responsive, making the planning process easy. Our family of 6 adults and 4 children, ages 2-8, are still talking about our 4 days at the ranch, hiking, fishing, exploring in the Polaris, Elk watching, fabulous fireplace and sitting area, family meals at the huge round table with a great lazy susan for passing dishes, spring fed drinking water, endless hot showers, comfortable and private rooms. The cabin is stunningly decorated! Immaculately clean! Open concept and so roomy, with several cozy gathering areas. Our Littles loved the big drum! The hosts provided sleds for the dunes on our trip to White Sands National Park…a must adventure! The wrap around porch! If it wasn’t so cold, I would have spent more time there! The outdoor sauna! There was more to do than we had time for! The hikes on the ranch, up the mountain were my favorite! We are an outdoors family and this was the perfect way to celebrate The New Year! The drive from Houston was definitely worth it! Hope to visit again!

This was hands down the most favorite VRBO property we have ever been to! Clean and cozy with everything you need! We had the absolute best family time. There is so much to so or if you don't want to do anything but stare atall the beauty the porches are fantastic. It waa such a dream! Kendra was a wonderful site host. Communication was excellent! She had a tree decorated and helpes me find a Santa to come out. Our family will never forget this vacation.
