    This is at the top of our list of favorite places we've stayed! We explored on the mountain, kayaked and fished in the pond, fed and watched the animals, and so much more! The house was neat, clean, and had everything we needed!

    This was our second time out to Inks Ranch just as the weather gets cooler and again the stay was impressive. What a beautiful area with amazing views during our hikes along with watching a huge herd of Audad come down to drink from the water right in front of the house! We had 7 people so there was plenty of room to spread out and the kids absolutely loved swimming and fishing right in front of the house. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to prepare our meals and we loved the coffee bar. We spent the days hiking through the rocks and were able to see many animals including herds of Mouflan sheep, Audad sheep and Goats, how do they get to the very top rock! We also so several deer walking through and the rock squirrels were fun to watch. Our evenings were very relaxing on the porch and we enjoyed the time to be unplugged, we had no cell service and loved it (there is wi-fi). We will be visiting again for sure!

    This place is heaven on earth!! We find ourselves incredibly blessed to have experienced the beauty of this ranch. We have stayed on the Inks Ranch numerous times and we are always eager to return! Our kiddos love paddle boarding, swimming, and fishing in the water and I love watching all the aoudad and mouflon climbing the rocks in the early mornings with a cup of coffee on the porch. My fiancé fires up the grill in the evenings to cook some bacon wrapped axis back strap, and we eat dinner with a glass of wine under the stars. We have had many memorable family hikes up the mountains and I even got to hunt and shoot my very first aoudad with my bow!! And he was HUGE!! That was an experience I’ll never forget. The cabin has that rustic cozy feeling when you step inside, the beds are always freshly made and comfy, the kitchen is fully stocked and the living room is spacious with the perfect couches for afternoon naps (although we never nap because we love to explore the outdoors). It even has the most unique bar I’ve ever seen with a tree trunk right through the middle of it! Anyways, if you’re looking for a place to relax and unwind, make memories with family and friends, go hunting or exploring on the most beautiful land on earth, all while enjoying a newly remodeled rustic cabin, then you have found the place! And let me just add, the owners of this ranch are the most thoughtful, gracious hosts I’ve ever met! They really go the extra mile to make sure your stay is the best vacation ever!

    The ranch is a great place to be. You can relax and enjoy the scenery or you can hike up one of the many trails. The road is great for an early morning run and you never know what wild life you might see. We were lucky enough to see animals crossing over the rocks as we sat in the shade. There is also a rock that is great for viewing the stars at night. The beds are comfortable and the house just gives the overall great feel. We will definitely take another trip there.

    We had a short stay and can't wait to get back to recharge. We set our phones down for hours and hours and just enjoyed the natural beauty around us. Watch Mountain is a wonderful view; enjoyed best all day from the porch. We watched the sunrise over the mountain with a cup of coffee and the moonrise with a glass of wine. In late afternoon, we spent time on the porch waiting for the Aoudad sheep to come to the lake. Our kids enjoyed playing in the lake and exploring the mountain. We went and watched the sunset and the stars on a special rock a short distance from the house. If you can bring your telescope to the ranch, do it; the skies are amazing. The house is plenty big for a couple families to enjoy a retreat away from home. We enjoyed, fishing, hiking, swimming, wild animal watching, sunrises, sunsets, peace and solitude (hunting is available too). The accommodations are well loved but clean and comfortable, like going to your grandparent's house in the country. There is so much to explore and do at this ranch oasis. Our kids ask us all the time to go back and we are looking forward to returning for some more memories.

    The best views in all of the Texas hill country. Comfortable accommodations And Texas hospitality at its finest. There is the most gorgeous view of the mountain from the porch. Best place to enjoy your morning coffee or evening nightcap. Every visit here has left me refreshed. Hiking in the area is phenomenal. The wildlife viewing is top notch. There is no reason not to book a stay. You will not be disappointed. Looking forward to my next stay.
