Texas Ranch Getaway: 27 Private Acres with Game Room & Pond

Where families, friends, and groups come together.

Welcome to The Schulenburg Ranch Retreat, a private Texas ranch on 27 peaceful acres that’s perfect for family reunions, group getaways, church retreats, holiday gatherings, and celebrations of all kinds.

Here, you’ll enjoy the privacy of your own ranch with no shared walls, no crowded resort, and plenty of room to relax, reconnect, and spend time with the people who matter most.

Whether you’re enjoying your morning coffee on the porch, fishing in the pond, gathering around the fire pit, or sharing dinner around the table, this is a place where everyone can slow down and simply enjoy being together.

Things to Know Before You Book

We believe in being transparent so you know exactly what to expect before you arrive.

Flexible Arrival & Departure

Early check-in and late checkout may be available upon request, depending on our booking and cleaning schedule. If your travel plans require a little extra time, feel free to ask and we’ll do our best to accommodate your group.

Clean & Well Maintained

The home is professionally cleaned and inspected before every stay.

Starter Supplies

We provide generous starter quantities of household essentials for your arrival. For larger groups or longer stays, guests may need to purchase additional consumable supplies based on their individual needs.

Authentic Texas Country Living

Our ranch sits on 27 natural acres in the heart of Texas. Despite regular professional pest control, occasional insects, wildlife, and the natural sights and sounds of country living are part of the ranch experience.

Our pond aerator operates to help maintain the health of the pond and fish and may be heard from portions of the property.

We intentionally preserve the property’s natural grasses, mature trees, pond, and rural landscape to maintain its authentic Texas ranch character rather than a manicured resort setting.

Water & Utilities

The home is supplied by a private well with a water softening system, providing clean, fresh water throughout your stay.

The property also operates on a private septic system. To help us protect it, please flush only toilet paper and avoid disposing of wipes, paper towels, feminine products, grease, or other non-flushable items.

Safety

Exterior security cameras monitor the outside of the property for guest safety and property security. There are no cameras inside the home or in private guest areas.

Children should always be supervised outdoors, especially near the pond and throughout the property due to natural terrain.

⸻

We hosted a wonderful family gathering here for my husband's Papa, and he had an amazing weekend surrounded by his grandkids and great-grandkids. There was so much space and endless activities to choose from—fishing, archery, volleyball, and soccer kept everyone entertained!The house itself is fantastic and comes equipped with a game room featuring a poker table and plenty of board games. The owner is exceptionally helpful and quick to respond. When the Wi-Fi went out for a brief moment, she was on top of it immediately! We are so grateful for her hospitality and definitely plan on booking this place again.A few things to note: Lawn Care: The grass was quite tall during our stay, so we had to be extra cautious with the little ones who might not know to watch out for snakes.Ambient Noise: I loved watching the sunrise from the porch every morning, but do keep in mind that a loud generator or pond aerator runs constantly. You can hear it clearly from both the front and back porches, so it does mask the peaceful morning sounds of chirping birds and crickets.Overall, it was a lovely stay and a fantastic backdrop for making family memories!
