About this house rental

Circle H Lodge, an historic house from the early 1900's, is near Leakey in an area of the Texas Hill Country noted for magnificent scenery. Yes, we're close to Concan, TX, too. The lodge is located in a lovely, secluded valley on Circle H Ranch. This is a working ranch devoted to the preservation of wildlife and is home to many species of both native and non-native animals. The lodge is decorated in Cowboy High Style with antiques and Cowboy -Indian memorabilia. There is a natural rock swimming pool in front of the lodge which is only accessible by LODGE GUESTS. During the evening hang out with family or friends at the old cantina located behind the lodge.

This two-story lodge has been completely renovated. It has central heat and air-conditioning and provides all the amenities. There is a large living and dining area.

    Amazing property with beautiful natural surroundings. The lodge was fully stocked with ample room for large families. The private swimming hole was great and the hiking trails along the spring were fantastic for exploring the grounds. Fun themed cantina and outdoor fur pit/grilling area were gathering spaces.Bonus feature was all the exotic animals on site!A definite gem in the hill country

    It was very nice to unplug and enjoy being a family, communication was perfect with owners and we had everything we needed. Loved seeing all the animals on the property and really enjoyed sitting outside at night with the wind that blows on the porch. Thank you for opening your place to us! FYI my son is now asking for a baby zebra lol
