Welcome to High Hope Ranch, a sprawling 1000-acre sanctuary nestled atop the majestic Texas Hill Country. As you traverse the rolling hills, you'll be greeted by breathtaking vistas that stretch out to the north, offering sweeping views of The Great Plains beyond. Immerse yourself in the rich history and natural wonders of the ranch, where millions of years of geological evolution have left their mark. Explore the rugged terrain and discover prehistoric ravines carved by ancient oceans, adorned with fascinating oceanic fossils such as sand dollars, sea urchins, and ammonites. Our camping sites offer a primitive yet immersive experience, allowing you to connect with nature in its purest form. Pitch your tent amidst fields of vibrant bluebonnets in April, or revel in the splendor of the Milky Way under the October sky. For a truly enchanting experience, set up camp alongside the flowing creeks at sites like Uchawi, where the soothing sound of water creates a tranquil ambiance. Embark on an adventure along over 20 miles of hiking trails that wind through the ranch's diverse landscapes, offering endless opportunities for exploration and discovery. Be sure to schedule a visit to our working farm, where you can interact with friendly animals like pigs, goats, and Zoey the Donkey, gaining insight into sustainable farming practices and animal husbandry. Before you depart, don't forget to visit our Farm Store, where you can stock up on a variety of farm-fresh delights, including pasture-raised meats, canned goods, and freshly harvested produce grown right here on the ranch. At High Hope Ranch, we invite you to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and embrace the serenity and splendor of the Texas Hill Country. Whether you seek adventure, relaxation, or a deeper connection with nature, our ranch offers a sanctuary where dreams take flight and memories are made to last a lifetime. Welcome to High Hope Ranch, where the spirit of the land beckons you to explore, discover, and thrive.

We enjoyed the time at High Hope Ranch! The store is adorable, the hosts were responsive and helpful, the animals were the cutest, the land and location are beautiful, and excellent signal throughout our trip. Peaceful stay with well marked trails. Thank you for your hospitality!

We had a great experience at the high hope ranch. Our daughter loved seeing all the pigs and goats in the morning. Sites are spaced out well and we’re quiet. We will definitely be back!

Primitive Camping

Brought all the kids!

We did primitive camping with four kids, two of them toddlers. We had the best time! Rain was in the forecast for the first night and we didn't plan to spend that night, but our host pointed out a sheltered area and we did stay, and kept the kids dry. The older kids practiced map reading, trail finding, camp craft and we all generally had a great time. There is so much to see! We didn't see it all. It's way better then a state park with interesting yard art scattered throughout and a private, secluded feel to the area. We also enjoyed the farm animals. It was an all around good trip with us all unplugged and outside. It seamed like we were much further from home then we were, without the long drive. Definitely coming back to this gem!

Will 100% be back!

Brandy is fantastic! She was very accommodating. The views everywhere we went were incredible, we loved the goats and chickens and pigs and the donkey. We did primitive camping, but they also offer cabins. They do have a nice bathroom for those staying in tents. They also have a really cute gift shop at the check-in office. The property is huge, the sunsets and stars were mesmerizing, and we can’t wait to go back. 10/10
