Hill Top Ranch Barndo

Relax with the family and friends at this peaceful 15-acre ranch. Our cozy barndo is nestled in the picturesque Palo Pinto Mountains, overlooking the majestic Brazos River in Palo Pinto County, just west of Mineral Wells. Located within a 3500-acre gated ranch, this property offers a tranquil retreat surrounded by nature's beauty. Inside you will find a spacious living area perfect for 2 families. Outside, witness stunning sunrises over the Palo Pinto Mountains and sunsets over the beautiful oak trees.

Inside, you'll find a spacious living area and fully equipped kitchen, ideal for gathering with friends and family. Step outside onto the massive back patio, complete with a stone fireplace, perfect for cozy evenings under the stars. Additionally, guests can enjoy roasting marshmallows and sharing stories around the fire pit, with firewood provided for your convenience.

Situated amidst lush surroundings teeming with wildlife, including deer, turkey, bald eagles, coyotes, wild pigs and bobcats, the provides a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the serenity of the west Texas countryside. With over 60 head of cattle roaming the ranch, you'll experience the authentic charm of ranch life during your stay.

A fully stocked kitchen is equipped with everything necessary for preparing, cooking, and serving a complete meal. We try to provide you with most of the essentials for your culinary needs. Enjoy the convenience of having salt, pepper, sugar, flour, oils, and a variety of seasonings available. We have an under-sink water filtration system, espresso machine, wine frig and ice trays and gas and/or charcoal grill available.

Each bedroom is equipped with a smart TV and a ceiling fan, as well as some of the softest sheets and comfiest pillows you will find.

The property is located 30 minutes from Rocker B Ranch and not far from historic downtown Mineral Wells (Home of the Crazy), Mineral Wells State Park and Possum Kingdon Lake.

Activities include hiking, fishing, and wading in the Brazos River, playing cornhole or giant Jenga, gathering around the outdoor fire pit, or simply relaxing on the front or back porch. When you're ready to explore, visit the charming boutiques and the famous Mineral Water Company in town, enjoy live music, stroll through Clark Gardens, check out local breweries and wineries, or discover the rich history of Mineral Wells.

The barndo is nestled on 15 acres of a sprawling 3,500-acre ranch, offering a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature. The cows roam the ranch, and you are likely to see turkeys, deer, hogs, you might even catch a glimpse of Bald Eagles by the river along with other wildlife. It's incredibly quiet, with no other homes in sight. Immerse yourself in the sights and sounds of wildlife as you relax in your home away from home!

Best vacation rental yet!
Let's be honest, there aren't many vacation rentals that truly live up to the description and pictures on the listing page. This is NOT one of those. Easily the nicest, cleanest, most beautiful, best-equipped home we've stayed at, even after many years of travel and staying at vacation rentals. The views are amazing. It's off the beaten path, but that's part of the charm and well worth it.

So Relaxing and Peaceful
We absolutely loved our stay. The gated neighborhood/ranch was quiet and remote but still convenient to get to town (and Mineral Wells is such a great town with friendly people). The barndo is on the perfect spot to take in the sunrise and the views of the hills. It is new, clean, spacious and well appointed (the listing is very accurate). The river access is so convenient, where you can just sit in the water, cool off, and enjoy. Check in was easy, and owner communicated well. We would gladly stay here again!

Perfect Getaway
We were in town for a ball tournament and needed a place to stay with our 2 dogs. This was the perfect spot! Easy to get to but is off the beaten path. Very quiet and peaceful. Communication was prompt and very welcoming. We had plenty of dishes, utensils and toiletry items for our stay. My family loved the outdoor area and played Cornhole every night! We even did some fishing but the river was really high so we weren’t able to get in but my child had the best time! Beautiful place with the most comfortable beds and pillows! Would definitely stay again!

Secluded luxury
This was a surprise find for us. We needed a place to stay for our son’s baseball tournament and decided we’d try this vs hotels in Mineral Wells. Great location, secluded so privacy is there by default but very nice place with top end touches throughout the home. The beds were soooo comfortable and there was plenty of space for our family of 4 to spread out. Access to the Brazos river was a plus and saw the neighborhood cows and turkey throughout our stay. Good spot to get away and relax with a beautiful view from the back porch where we spent most of our time. Stephanie was awesome on communicating anything we needed. Would definitely return.
