Pete and Michelle are fantastic people and their property is perfect for a getaway. We spent a week here for our annual birthday trip. The ranch has goats, sheep, donkeys and horses. You'll also see a lot of deer. The guest house has all the comforts of home including a full kitchen. Close enough for day trips into Fredericksburg but country enough you can see the stars at night. We'll definitely be going back for another visit. Thanks for a fabulous stay! ##### Jilly B.

The home was beautiful and spacious, the beds were SO comfortable, it was very "home-y". If we had had more time there, we would have taken advantage of the trails in the woods that the owner has created. It took some getting used to driving the curvy and hilly roads to the property at night, but well worth it. I highly recommend it! ##### Dorothy Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pamela S. 18 Oct 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### FANTASTIC There's not enough superlatives to do a review justice.

The hosts, Pete and Michelle were fabulous, the cabin was super clean and roomy, and while remote, the location very quiet and peaceful.

They met us at the gate and Pete gave us a tour of the ranch house and the ranch and told us of the great hamburgers at the nearby General Store. We were in the area to attend a celebration of Johnny Bush's 85th birthday at Twin Sister's Dancehall. We loved the ranch, the goats, sheep, and horses, not to mention the wildlife we saw and heard.
