Dixie Dude Ranch

"From England and what an amazing experience we had, couldn't fault anything. My husband is an experienced rider, I've never ridden but the wranglers were great. We had Garrett most of the time who was pretty laid back. If you're like me Blue or Wink are great, gentle horses. Food was home cooked and tasted great. So much of it as well. We missed lunch 1 day because we were so full. Lots of other activities as well but we enjoyed sitting on the porch relaxing and enjoying the peace and quiet. All the staff were so friendly and I just love the accent. Great overall, authentic atmosphere and loved our cabin, Jangle with our regular visits from Onyx the cat and Poncho and Pickles the dogs. Bandera is definitely worth a visit as well especially Arkey Blue bar."

"What an absolutely amazing experience.i loved my stay here, honestly i wish i stayed longer. My only concern would be cleanliness, i don't know about all the rooms, but where i was staying (the stirrup) there were quite a few spiderwebs and the shower looked like it could use a good scrub. But if you have ever been camping and survived, this place is worth it. By far, safer and more comfortable, it felt like home. Every time i opened my door to leave, a different animal was outside my door. The food was excellent, delicious, and filling. Even offered more if it seemed like you were still hungry. They worked around my dietary restriction (dairy-free) very well, which i am thankful for. There are an extreme amount of animals, birds, cats, dogs, horses, goats, pigs, turtles, fish, bulls, and a peacock, i even saw some deer while i was fishing. The trails are even bigger than i imagined. I wish i could hike it all, i feel like it would take quite a while though. I did check out the buzzard cave, which was very interesting. All the staff are so friendly and accommodating. They scheduled horseback rides and a campfire, along with a set time of breakfast, lunch, and dinner. There are so many games and things to do, you will never be bored while here. Thank you! It was even better than i thought it would be."

"Just left there, what a wonderful vacation spent with my family and grandchildren, how blessed to ride horses with my grandkids. Food was plentiful and so delicious served family style. Wranglers are friendly and good horses. The ranch is so welcoming, felt at home. Will definitely go again."

"WOW WOW WOW !!!!! I visited this ranch for a week earlier this month. I started crying 4 days before I had to leave because basically I wanted to never go. The staff were like one big family and made you feel part of it too. Nothing was too much trouble at all. The food (3 meals a day) were so delicious and we were left amazed every day at the quantity, quality and presentation. The kitchen staff were so wonderful and friendly. I could go on and on but basically if you’re going to do a ranch holiday do this one"

"We had the best experience! The food was amazing. The riding trails are scenic with awesome views! The people… they are worth the trip alone …. We were made to feel welcome and everyone was so nice. Authentic experience for sure!"
