Total Privacy and Huge Stars!!!

We spent the weekend here with my wife. Originally, we had planned to go to Las Vegas, but after years of visiting, we decided to switch things up. At the last minute, we thought this would be the perfect alternative. We drove through San Saba, grabbed a bite at Pecan House Grill, and then headed to the ranch. This place exceeded our expectations. The nostalgic charm of the place was unforgettable. It was spotless, and we had everything we needed. The highlight was relaxing on the porch, falling asleep while stargazing. The owner reached out via text to welcome us and even invited us for breakfast and church on Sunday. Not many places like this are left in Texas! Definitely worth a visit. It was truly an unforgettable experience.
