4 nights at 4R Ranch Winery Campsite

Beautiful place. Great food and camping and trails are a lot of fun.

Weekend Trip to 4R Ranch Winery Campsite

We camped at the dispersed site, me car camping and my buddy tent camped. We met one of the owners Sunday before leaving and he’s definitely good people. Even helped to change a tire for me that had a screw in it. We will be going back.

Weekend Trip to 4R Ranch Winery Campsite

Great secluded spot with plenty of room and great views.

Weekend Trip to 4R Ranch Winery Campsite

4R is a great place & not too crowded. The winery is nice and they have a great MTB trail too.

Weekend Trip to 4R Ranch Winery Campsite

Great camping area. Nice privacy. Enjoyed spotlighting the armadillos rummaging through the surround brush.

2 nights at Sleep Under the Pecan Trees

Quiet and scenic. Free-roaming horses, mules and donkeys add the perfect touch.

Weekend Trip to Treehouse on the Creek

Steve was a wonderful gracious host. The treehouse was splendid. The trails are a nice short walk with plenty of critters. At night it looks beautiful seeing the fireflies fill the horizon. I only stayed a night but it was a lovely experience. Steve was very helpful and kind.

Weekend Trip to Waterfront Hideaway Ranch

Waterfront Hidaway Ranch was a welcome reprieve after a long day of driving through Houston and Dallas rushing hour traffic. The cool evening lake breeze, the beautiful morning sunrise....and a fresh load of laundry reset us for the rest of our journey

Weekend Trip to 4R Ranch Winery Campsite

Walt is a super hero. Upon arriving to our campsite on a very rainy weekend, we proceeded to get stuck in the mud. Walt arrived the next morning at 6:30am and, after considerable effort, pulled us out with his tractor. He went above and beyond to take care of his guests. I highly recommend anything associated with the winery or Walt’s property. Thanks Walt!

1 night at 4R Ranch Winery Campsite

I love Walt's all of his camp sites. They are always beautiful and the best in Texas.

Weekend Trip to 4R Ranch Winery Campsite

We love 4R every single time!!!! We like site 14 and 15 for privacy.

Weekend Trip to 4R Ranch Winery Campsite

We loved the privacy of site #15 and the property was beautiful! Firewood was stocked by our site which was super convenient. No picnic table at the site but we made do! We went up to the winery for lunch one day which was super nice.

3 nights at 4R Ranch Winery Campsite

We saw 3 deer and 2 giant birds resting on the hilltop. Campfire under the stars 10/10.

3 nights at 4R Ranch Winery Campsite

Walt has a little hilly, scenic, perfect paradise in the middle of pasture land Texas USA. Absolutely would recommend! Don’t however expect comforts at your RV or campsites. You’ll have to get that at his beautiful winery’s tasting room on top of the hill.

Weekend Trip to Sleep Under the Pecan Trees

We loved Rick’s place with the great fishing and friendly horses. It was a bit muddy with all the rain but we still had a great time and Rick was a great host. We will definitely be back.

Weekend Trip to Sleep Under the Pecan Trees

I am not one with words, but if you read one review, read this one. We arrived and Rick was full of stories and information about the property. He took us to our site (4 wheel drive is a MUST!) which was amazing. He allowed us to rearrange the picnic table and fire ring to our liking. The next morning Rick set our eggs out that we purchased through him at 6am. We went fishing and caught four 2-2.8 pounders. It was amazing! That sunset I took the photography class presented by Rick. It was wonderful. Got a lot of information and he took me to some pretty spots I had not seen before. That evening it rained and stormed. Our tent collapsed and our gear was soaked. This was my first time camping, and because the amazing time Rick provided I am hooked!!!! The animals coming in to my camp was unforgettable and seeing my dogs swim in the ponds, those are memories I’ll never forget! Thank you Rick for having such a beautiful, well maintained and kept up property! Me and my family will be back!!!!

Weekend Trip to Treehouse on the Creek

Steve was great! It rained the day before we came and he took the time to let us know it probably wouldn’t be so comfortable with all the mud and accommodated us in the town near by until it dried overnight! He’s super friendly and we enjoyed our stay! The property is amazing is great for a get away!

Weekend Trip to 4R Ranch Winery Campsite

Campsites are far enough away from other campers. I love the ability to go to the tasting room and have a snack or lunch. The place is quite and private.

Weekend Trip to 4R Ranch Winery Campsite

Lucky 13, my 1st camping trip was perfect! This is a smaller compact, spot, as described. The spots were nicely marked and the handbook provided all the necessary info! I camped prior to the trail race. The trail is in great shape and well marked, even without the race. This is a nice getaway. The hill to get down and up to the winery is a bit scary unless you are in AWD or a truck. Take it slow.

3 nights at Sleep Under the Pecan Trees

As always, we had the best time. We love Rick and his animals!

4R Ranch Winery Campsite

141 sites · RVs, Tents1132 acres · Muenster, TX

Where the short-grass prairie drops into the Red River Valley, the 4R Ranch—with its magnificent vistas and rocky terrain—is perfectly suited for growing grapes. Patriarch W.C. Roper encouraged his family of sixth-generation Texans to share the beauty of this extraordinary place with others; and so it was love of this man and love of the land that inspired 4R Ranch Vineyards & Winery. Chinquapin oaks, white-tailed deer, the endangered black-capped vireo, and the occasional Rio Grande turkey inhabit this incredible property. Powered by sun, earth and wind, 4R Ranch Vineyards & Winery calls us all to slow our pace, enjoy the view, and sip a glass of wine in the magnificent Red River Valley.

Camp Tonkawa Woods & Horse Camp

8 sites · Lodging, Tents35 acres · Collinsville, TX

In the early 1900’s an iconic red barn was built near the hilltop along the road between the old Mt. Zion community and Collinsville. Later in the 1900’s, the land was mostly abandoned by its owners, but not by the local fishermen! They knew its woodland fishing pond never dried up, and so was able to support a better population of fish. They also dumped a cornucopia of old motorcycles, cars and farm equipment in the front field. What else were you supposed to do with scrap metal in North Texas horse country? In 2002 the Holtzman family purchased the 35 acre tract of land. They dug a front pond for swimming and paddling, buried the scrap metal (although occasional bits of history still work their way up!), restored and brought horses back to the barn, and began consulting with local biologists about supporting native wildlife. April Holtzman launched Camp Tonkawa Outdoor Learning Center on the property to provide a beautiful, safe place for families to explore and learn about nature. Camp Tonkawa continues to host overnight and day camps with educational programing organized around various themes including: Native American culture, nature awareness, basic camping skills, primitive survival, organic gardening, herbology, outdoor cooking, western days, and horsemanship. We also host field trips and frequently conduct Girl Scout journeys for all levels in the "It's Your Planet, Love it!" series. Due to Covid-19, which limited working with groups for our educational programing, we joined Hip Camp where families who could isolate in nature together on our property.
