Kitchen, living, and dining room areas are large and spacious. The dining table seats 10 people. The couches are over sized and cozy enough to sleep in. The front porch is a great place for that morning cup of coffee while sitting on a rocking chair savoring the rolling hills, scenic vistas, and abundant wildlife which include white-tailed deer, turkey, dove, axis, black buck antelope, fallow, elk and zebra. It's a 232 acre TEXAS SAFARI. Great for hiking and biking, or take the kids arrowhead searching near the pond.

This is an amazing place for a getaway in the TX Hill Country.

Our stay was outstanding. House was clean, spacious, comfortable. Property is dog friendly. A great place just to get away and relax in the TX Hill Country not far from quaint Fredericksburg. Rent the Kubota and scout the property. You will be enthralled at the exotic animals and the rugged terrain!

Overall great experience

Very thoughtful and well organized house with great experiences for little ones and older kids. Trekking in the Kubota to see all the wildlife was the highlight of the trip. Will definitely return.

Relaxing

My husband and I stayed here for a much needed time of rest. This home is absolutely lovely and very peaceful. We were visited each morning and evening by all of the natural wildlife. It is quiet and secluded which was great for us. The pool was a hit with us as well since it has been so extremely hot this summer. Would love to come back with family when we get the chance. The drive to town isn’t to far if you feel the need to do some shopping or sight seeing! Great place!!

Ranch

Nice country/ranch atmosphere with deer, turkey, and even zebra, and beautiful pool. The property manager, Danny, was outstanding. The only drawbacks were the house had a really bad mice problem and the promised ATV which we were charged $70 per day was out of order. the second day the property manager let us use the owners but we were never reimbursed for the first day of not having one. Also, the grass was not mowed. With that kind of fee being charged, very disappointing. Also the VRBO host manager, Lanette Martinez, never answered any of our questions. Very poor communication from her. All she responded was demanding payment, seemed to be all she was interested in, did not answer one question. Will never deal with her again, no matter the property.

About the host

Hosted by LANETTE MARTINEZ

Denise is the owner of a delivery, moving, & storage company in the Houston, TX. She visited Fredericksburg, TX over 20 years ago and fell in love with quaint little town. She first purchased the property as a private getaway but could not visit as much as she would have liked. As she shared the property with friends and family, Denise realized how much they enjoyed it. She then decided to make it available to the public to enjoy.

Why they chose this property

Here at Rancho Del Sol we pride ourselves in making our house your home away from home that you and your family with want to return to regularly. Many customers become regulars. They tell us about the memories and good times they had which is what vacationing should be all about. Even with all the town of Fredericksburg has to offer, many people don't want to leave the ranch during there stay. They love it!!

What makes this property unique

Many properties as large as ours (232 acres), have multiple houses or cabins to book more than one party at a time. When you book Rancho Del Sol you have the property all to yourself!! There are daily visits from our friendly ranch foreman to feed the animals, answer questions ,or provide assistance to our guests.
