We utilize some solar power and capture 100% of our water from the rain, for an eco friendly experience.

This place was absolutely perfect in every way! From an extremely comfortable bed and thoughtful design details to a peaceful and beautiful natural setting, this was my ideal for a place to relax and regroup after a long year. Many thanks to Marlena! She is an attentive and gracious host!

Marlena’s airstream is a great stay if you’re looking to disconnect and be off the grid. The property is beautiful, clean and comfy. She’s also very responsive, just in case you have questions.

This was our second time out there and we brought some friends. Everyone was amazed with the landscape and night time views. Warren and his family came by the camp to chat and were extremely hospitable. We are already talking about a 3rd trip before the Texas heat really kicks in. This is an overlanders dream come true.

Hands down without a doubt the best spot to camp/overland in Texas. Words and photos can't describe just how beautiful their property is and how friendly everyone is.

Weekend Trip to Haby Ranch

We loved the Haby Ranch. This was our second time staying here. Back during the eclipse and during spring break this year and although is a drive for us coming from Houston, but the drive is worth it. The land is so beautiful and peaceful, the BEST part is being able to bring out Dogs and let them roam all over the terrain, the first time it was a group of 11 people and 5 dogs, I can honestly say our dogs had the time of their life. Warren is such a great host and always greed us and let us know what all the things we can do in the land. The stars at night are breathtaking and the sun sets are so peaceful. Will definitely recommend this place.

Weekend Trip to Haby Ranch

Just like the title says. The weekend was perfect and so were the views. 1100 acres offers a lot of room for wandering with plenty of dirt roads to get your tires dirty and space to stretch your legs. No RV hookups, but there is an Rv dump station right outside of Bandera. So be prepared to boondock or tent camp. The only neighbors we had were the co s and the frogs from the nearby creek. This is an overland adventure you don’t want to pass up.

We really enjoyed being on Warren's Land. Our group consisted of 3 38' motorhomes. Warren's communication with us was quick and precise. Our motorhomes were able to be driven on the ranch roads and Warren had recently trimmed some of the tree branches. Only one branch brushed against the roof of our tallest motorhome (13'6" in height). There was a portable toilet and a BBQ grill next to where we camped. The scenery was beautiful and the coyotes were very vocal at night! This is an overlanders dream. We wish we would've had our Jeeps! We are grateful we found this gem!

Haby Ranch was everything I expected and more. We had a group of 20+ campers out for the weekend and everyone had an amazing time. The perfect place to get away and relax in the Texas Hill Country. 10/10....would recommend!!

We loved ringing in the new year at Marlena’s space. Every single detail was accounted for, from the hammocks to the fire circle to the cozy outdoor kitchen, right down to the complimentary eggs from their chickens. We brought our 7 year olds along, who rated their experience a 10/10. Our pups would have rated it the same! We cannot wait to plan our return.

Weekend Trip to Hill Country Nature Retreat

Wonderful place. Lots of little touches that make it comfortable. It was rainy: two giant umbrellas. We tracked some dirt in: little brooms to clean up. We wanted some hot tea to warm up: a collection of every HEB flavor. The bed was super comfortable and we stayed cozy at 44F using the gas heater and leaving the windows open. Oh and the showers were hot. 100% great spot.
