We really enjoyed our stay. It’s a peaceful place with a fishing lake and a nice pool, perfect for relaxing. There were some spider webs on the windows, the refrigerator was a little dirty, and the air conditioning didn’t work very well during the afternoon heat. Other than that, everything was great and we had a very good experience overall.

After living in a very busy city for years the quiet was very much appreciated. The pond is stocked very well and my son caught about a 10 pound catfish. The expansive property gave everyone a place to call their own during our stay. The inside was extremely clean and well decorated. The beds were comfortable and the house was fully stocked with appliances, utensils, glassware, and cookware. 10 out of 10, do recommend.

EXCELLENT!!!!If you're looking for a quiet secluded place THIS is it. (Just make sure you have everything you need)The house is so cozy,fun and spacious,beds were very comfy and house was immaculate. ( we had a party of 18) Monica was amazing and very attentive to all our questions. (we appreciate you) There is a dollar general up the street but it does not sell beer (if you drink) we had to drive about 10 minutes to a QT convenience store which was not a bad deal we took pictures with Oklahoma sign,kids thought it was fun we were in another state.Pool was amazing and fishing was so fun. All kids caught something..Went to Pat Mayse Lake for a day 5 a car load for the whole day,not a bad deal,made some great memories!

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.

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.

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.

Loved our stay at Tex’s Ranch. What a great home. They had everything we needed, plus some we didn’t even realize we needed. The outside was beautiful! The heated pool was so much fun for the young kids, as well as the teenager and adults. One of the best things was the fishing in the pond. The kids caught one fish after another. The adults caught only a couple, but only because they were so busy helping the kids with their catches. Another favorite was the animals. Loved when they came up to the fence, and had such a good time feeding one of the horses that came by each day. Really enjoyed our stay and hope to come back again.

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.

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.

This place was amazing. The property is beautiful and well maintained. The hosts were fantastic. There was a storm one night that caused power outage for the entire county. The host showed up with a generator. Fortunately, the repairs were done quickly by the power company. The entire place was so peaceful. My kids (teenagers) and wife love watching and petting the cows and horses. Fishing was also great. We caught lots of bass and catfish. The largest was a 20 lb blue cat. We plan to return if available.

Great place for multiple families!

We absolutely loved our time at this house. The house is set up perfectly for multiple families to have their own areas. While we didn’t have much luck fishing, we definitely enjoyed riding on the pontoon boat. We fed the horses and ducks every day when they came up to visit. There’s a market dollar store nearby for last minute forgotten items. The store had a large grocery selection, including frozen and refrigerated items, which came in handy. I highly recommend staying at Tex’s Ranch!

Ranch Relaxation

Loved our stay! We were visiting from DFW & east Texas for a family getaway. It was so quiet and peaceful. The house had ample space for us to spread out or sit together to enjoy a meal or watch a movie. We really enjoyed the pool and the pond. The ducks at the pond were super friendly and we could hear them “talking” all day. You cannot beat the sunrises and view! It was lovely! Tex and Deb are wonderful hosts and we’re readily available during our stay. Would 100% recommend this place for anyone wanting a quiet, secluded, country getaway.

This is a great property and great hosts. The property was clean and well cared for. The pool was clean. Views are gorgeous. We had a family wedding to attend and hosted the rehearsal dinner at this location. Our guests loved it. We used the bbq and Flatstone grill, swam and had great food and fun. Our kids and some of their friends stayed with us and there was plenty of room. Great kitchen and outdoor area. Can't say enough about how the home was an asset to provide a great family get together. Thank you.

Graduation Celebration & Family Vacation

We were celebrating our grand sons graduation. This is a really great place and a really nice house. Everything was updated and it is stocked with all the essentials you need. It's big enough to handle a large family gathering, with plenty of space to spread out and a great living room and kitchen for everyone to come together. We were there in the middle of a typical Texas Heat Wave so hanging out in the pool was essential. It has a very large back porch area with plenty of tables and seating. We used the Blackstone for every meal. The fishing pond was a lot of fun.We caught a few bass. There are a ton of big catfish in there but we couldn't get them to bite. Everyone enjoyed their stay. The host are really nice and very quick to respond to any question.

A HIDDEN JEWEL: Unforgettable Stay with Something for Everyone at Tex’s Ranch!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Tex’s Ranch, and it was an unforgettable experience! The house itself was incredibly well-equipped. The kitchen had everything we needed, making it easy to prepare meals without a hitch. And let me tell you, the pictures do not do this place justice! The view of the pond and the valley behind the house is simply breathtaking. The pool area was a hit with the kids, and I appreciated the pergola with its soft lighting at night, providing a perfect spot to relax out of the sun. The dock on the pond was another favorite spot. We enjoyed watching the fish come up to eat when the feeder went off and soaking in the tranquility of the water. The owners, Tex and Deb, are one of a kind, ensuring we were welcomed and had all that we needed One of the highlights for me was the open spaces where my dog could run and play safely away from the roads. The large yard had plenty of room to roam, and the horses and longhorn cows added a unique charm that I loved seeing every day. To top it all off, we even spotted an eagle with a nest nearby, which was a spectacular sight. This property truly offers something for everyone to enjoy. It is located at the end of a country road, far from any highway, it provided the peace and quiet that I desperately needed to escape from my busy life. Tex’s Ranch is a true jewel, and I can’t wait to return!

We had an amazing girls’ trip at Tex’s Ranch! The property accommodated our group of 15 comfortably, and from the moment we arrived, we truly felt at home. There was plenty of space for everyone, and the bedrooms were very generous in size, making it easy for everyone to relax and enjoy our stay.The pool was definitely one of the highlights it was clean, inviting, and the perfect place to spend our days together. We also loved seeing the horses on the property, which made the ranch experience even more special. We were fortunate to receive a visit from the owner during our stay, and that personal touch made us feel incredibly welcome.Being on a ranch, we expected a little dust and did notice quite a few spiders, but that’s simply part of staying in a beautiful rural setting and didn’t take away from our experience at all.If you’re looking for a peaceful, spacious place for a large group, Tex’s Ranch is a wonderful choice. We made so many unforgettable memories here, felt right at home the entire time, and would absolutely stay here again!
