Lucky Star Ranch All 3 Cabins w/Fire Pit & Animals

While some travelers to the Hill Country say they'd like to wind up in "the middle of nowhere," what they often mean is a peaceful rural setting that has easy access to both town and country attractions. The three guest cabins at the Lucky Star Ranch near Hondo strike a perfect balance! They're set on a working farm that features enough friendly animals to be considered a petting zoo; they're close to a handful of state parks and natural areas; and towns like Hondo and Bandera are close by, too The space With abundant trees and gorgeous Hill Country views everywhere you look, a visit to the Lucky Star Ranch is itself a must for fans of the great outdoors! There's much more for nature lovers here, though, as its location makes it a hub surrounded by some of the prettiest natural beauty and most exciting nature-based recreation in the region. As a prime example, the Hill Country State Natural Area is only three miles from the ranch; this is a local favorite spot for hiking, horseback riding, wildlife watching, and exploring. Expand outward a little bit, and you'll discover the Lost Maples State Natural Area and Garner State Park within an hour's drive; the latter is one of the most popular outdoor recreation hot spots in the entire state! In the mood for tubing, fishing, swimming, or kayaking? We have great news! The Frio, Medina, and Guadalupe Rivers are also all within an hour of the Lucky Star Ranch Cabins. Closer to your "home base" is an aspect of the ranch that delights kids of all ages. It's populated with friendly farm animals that love attention from visitors, including goats, chickens, and ducks! One of the standout "stars" of the farm is a delightful dwarf Nigerian goat named Baby, who recently won first place in the Pet Parade at the Bandera 4th of July celebration. If you'd like to bring a pet of your own to Lucky Star Ranch, they're welcome here! We only ask that they get along well with a variety of other animals, and that they remain leashed while on the property. The limit is one pre-approved pet per cabin. Another great perk of a stay at the Lucky Star Ranch Cabins is, if you book all three vacation cabins for your group of up to nine people, you'll have the place all to yourself! Otherwise, you'd be sharing outdoor amenities with the other cabins. There are picnic tables and a charcoal grill you're free to use when you're hankering for some genuine Texas BBQ, and there's a large fire pit here, too, perfect for roasting smaller snacks or just hanging out with your family and crew; remember, the Lucky Star Ranch is kid-friendly!. We'll provide the firewood for the fire pit, but please remember to bring your own charcoal. A variety of outdoor games is available, too, and for your convenience there are laundry facilities onsite. The ranch's owner lives on the property, if anything should come up, but they will otherwise respect your privacy. All three cabins at the Lucky Star Ranch were recently renovated and updated, and the result takes your comfort in mind, as well as creating a warm and friendly atmosphere for your visit. As you step up to the shade porch on your cabin, you'll find an intimate space complete with rocking chairs; it's a wonderful spot to wake up and get your day going with a cup of coffee, or winding down in the evening with a nightcap. Now it's time to step inside! Keep in mind all interior spaces here have been designed with similar amenities and features, so the following details apply equally to the trio of rental cabins. The first highlight that stands out is the dazzling natural light and golden woodwork, which in combination create a glowing and warm environment. The cabin's interior is open and roomy, in a studio-style arrangement that includes a bedroom, dining nook and functional and convenient kitchenette. The latter is equipped with a fridge, Keurig coffee maker, and a unique microwave that also functions as a conventional oven. You'll also have basic cookware, dining ware, and utensils. We've considered entertainment and connectivity, too, with a Roku-ready smart TV and high-speed Wifi Internet service. Your Hill Country nights will be spent in restful slumber on the comfortable queen-sized bed that sleeps two. The option of an additional rollaway bed is available in all three cabins, with potential sleeping accommodations for as many as nine people. (Please let us know how many rollaway beds you'd like when you book with us.) Finally, cleanup's a pleasure with the full bath in each cabin, all of which include basic toiletries and a sparkling-clean shower stall. As part of your stay, fresh and fluffy bed and bath linens are provided, too! Treat your whole family to the very best of town and country the Hill Country has to offer!
