We welcome you to come enjoy the seclusion and dark sky on a working cattle/exotic hunting ranch in the Texas Hill Country.  My great great grandfather established this ranch in the late 1870's and our family still lives here today.  We are located in Real county just north of Leakey, Texas on US Highway 83.  Our campsites are on the head waters of the West prong of the Frio River.  Our Grapevine Springs have continuous flow the year round.  You will enjoy the gurgling creek, hiking, swimming, solitude and our sunrises and sunsets, and big and bright stars in the night sky.  We have tall hills and hardwood trees, Spanish oaks, Escarpment Cherry, Black walnut, live oaks and other oaks.  We have wild animals; white tail deer, turkey, hogs and exotics and seasonally songbirds and butterflies on the ranch.  We are close to Lost Maples State Nature Area and Garner State Park. **Make sure your vehicle has plenty of clearance. Truck or SUV work great**

Rooster road #3
Great off the grid spot
Red rooster 3 was one of the remote dry camping sites at this ranch. Wilson at the ranch guided us to the site on a dirt road in his off road vehicle. The site was nestled in oak trees with views of rolling hills. The area is covered with small rocks with fossilized shells which was cool. If you like privacy, you will like this site. There is another more conventional camp area on the ranch that we didn’t have time to visit, but the photos looked nice. Thanks Wilson!

We got a unique camping spot due to the eclipse & it was nothing short of amazing! It was probably the best camping trip of my life. All the staff are so caring & kind. Everyone on the ranch makes sure you have what you need & you’re well cared for. The owner was super friendly. So glad that we found this place & got to meet some awesome people! We will definitely be back.

Had a great experience Wilson was a wonderful host and very accommodating to everyone on his property. I would recommend this to anyone that is looking to spend some time truly off the grid. The property was beautiful and well kept. I plan to be back in the future!!
