We're happily retired partners loving life in this wonderful oasis... And working hard to make it a bit better for our animals and guests, every single day. Mickey's recently retired from 21 years traveling the world with International Joint Special Forces and Vicky's a Cordon Bleu Chef who also recently retired.  We are living our dream "retirement" in this gorgeous wooded Texas Hill-Country, caring for and playing with all sorts of fun animals and welcoming lovely people to our ranch/wildlife preserve/nature- resort, personally ensuring everyone has a memorable experience, from customized horseback-riding experiences (everything from trail rides, to horseback riding lessons to weddings and vows-renewals on horseback), to serving as concierge to preparing that special "made to order" fresh country breakfasts, champagne brunches and romantic or fun meals and treats like chocolate covered strawberries for any special occasion, including anniversaries and birthdays.

Lindavista Cabin
A Wonderful Experience
First and foremost, the Exotic Bird Exhibit is magical!!!! The birds are clearly well cared for and trust Mickey, so it's really fun to spend time with them in a happy environment. My six-year-old son is really into exotic animals, and, to be frank, he's hard to impress. He usually expects to run free with the animals and hold all of them, but he is disappointed when he can only use two fingers to touch an iguana for a second, etc. Here, he was able to safely hold exotic animals without causing stress to the animals, and he is still happy about it two days later. We've watched the videos about 17 times. Animals roamed the property, so we woke up to chickens outside the front patio. Again, magical! The cabins are charming, and much thought is put into having everything you might need. The hosts are kind and accommodating; we are already planning another trip there. One thing to mention, which I wouldn't consider a negative, more of a consideration. If you are bringing a dog with you, their dogs stay a ways behind the Lindavista cabin. The cabin itself is SO cozy (and the tub is SO relaxing after a long day), but there was a bit of barking, my dog included. Nothing aggressive, just dogs being dogs, but a consideration depending on your dog's temperament.

Lindavista Cabin
It’s family friendly camp ground. There are plenty of domesticated animals there such as donkeys, goats, turkeys, and horses. There are also free roaming chickens. The animals all seemed friendly and I got some really cute pics of my kids with the goats. There are also some beautiful trees there and it could be a very cool backdrop for photos. The cabins are rustic but have comfortable beds, tv, wifi and fans/ac. Would definitely come back.

The main cabin was great however I was disappointed to pay $100 cleaning fee and asked to take all bedding and towels used outside, and take all trash to a dumpster before leaving. The ranch is ok but the website definitely makes you think it’s nicer than what it is. Keep also in mind that there is no cell service and not much information when you arrive about the activities offered. Ask before arriving.

Poor communication then blew up my phone followed by more poor communication. Way too many bogus rules, during eclipse, stated there would be bathrooms then there wasn't going to be any after purchase. Seems to be a theme.

It was great! Victoria and Miguel were awesome hosts and the land was super nice. The pasture was super spacious so we didn't have to worry about any of the other campers. We got the home made breakfast and it was amazing, highly recommend. We had a great weekend and will definitely be coming back at some point!
