Fuller's Folly River Ranch

Sundancer On The Brazos sits on Comanche Creek in an isolated forest

on a 350 acre working cattle ranch with a quarter mile of river frontage!

The Comanche were quite active up and down this part of the Brazos when the earliest settlers arrived around 1850, until the Comanches' eventual conquest by the Texas Rangers and their Colt pistols around 1870; we have found lots of flint and some arrowheads on high places here. Going further back in history, the Fuller's Folly River Ranch has an abundance of petrified wood, they say that if you have fossilized sea shells you were under water, but if you have petrified wood you had land creatures. Hunting for petrified wood is a fun adventure here. (But leave them for the next person to discover!)

Weatherford is only 10 minutes away and

Granbury is only 20 minutes away; both have great restaurants. And this close to Fort Worth (30min), you could actually commute and have a ranch to come home to at night--note the lower pricing mid week.

Living room is a great place to hang out!

The front room with antler chandelier;  sleeper sofa sleeps two people. 

Luxurious queen bed in a private bedroom.

Trickle Creek Ranch

Trickle Creek Ranch was once a dairy, we purchased it 15 years ago and it has become a hobby ranch. We are also collector's of vintage RV's and currently have a 1952 Spartanette and 1968 Chinook on the property. There are miniature horses and longhorn cattle that roam the 12 acres. We have added RV spaces to share the ranch experience with others.

The old calving barn has a cabin renovation on it that looks amazing

There is a picnic table and fire pit for communal use

Gary was nice enough to share some fresh garden honeydew with us

Texas Lazy J Ranch

The bank where Bonnie and Clyde attempted to rob is located here in Ponder.Learn more about this land:We have a private cabin on the back of a 10 acre ranch with Fainting goats, chickens and horses to enjoy with great views across the prairie.

Watch your little ones! I have a little climber, but I couldn't let him past the center of the wall. The rocks get a little wobbly, and we don't want anyone to get hurt!

The fire pit is huge! We were sad we weren't able to have a fire due to the high winds and dry conditions.
