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**

Howdy yall, if you are looking for a place to enjoy the eclipse I would check the hext volunteer fire department in hext Texas. Unfortunately I am at my maximum number for the eclipse. If you have stayed with us previously please reach out before you book and I'll get you a discount code! I have added an Instagram account and I have a video of the drive down to the campsite and a video of the campsite itself. Gvs_resort is the handle.

Please note that this site books out the entire property! Your group will have access to all of the sites and there will be no other campers on property during your stay. Great for events, family reunions, birthdays, and more. FAQ Are day campers included in the total guest count, or does it only apply to overnight guests? All campers, whether they are staying overnight or not, must be included in the reservation. Can additional guests be added after the initial booking? Yes, you can modify your trip to add more guests through the Hipcamp app, but you cannot exceed the maximum capacity. Please let me know how many vehicles and RVs you are bringing in advance so we know that we can accommodate everything. If you don't have a high clearance vehicle, we will arrange to get you to the sites. Please note that class A & C coaches can be accommodated on site but not down at the main site. The maximum height is 18' to go down to the main site. I have had a 28' airstream make it down and back to the site.

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.
