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**

Grapevine Springs Retreat

We had the place to ourselves and we enjoyed the seclusion and natural beauty. We also loved exploring the property and swimming in the springs. Wilson was a gracious host and I'm so grateful that he shares his amazing ranch with campers like us.

Swimming Hole Campsite

The beauty of this hill country land is amazing. Quiet and peaceful. My family and I enjoyed the clear water of the swimming hole, it was cool but perfect when the sun was over us. Wilson is very nice, helpful and fun guy! He was a great guide showing us all around the property and giving us options as to our campsite. There’s plenty of space for small or large groups. We got the opportunity to enjoy the less rough off-road trails and saw some beautiful views. If you’re lucky enough like we were, you’ll get to enjoy all the adventures this property has to offer.
