Orrasis Ranch, RV, Get Away

Had a great time exploring Marble Falls and staying at Orrasis ranch. Great spot for kids with the playground, family was very friendly and accommodating!

While the property itself may not be what campers may envision when they arrive, the Orrasis is a hidden gem. There is a lovely trail and private access to the lake. And while Kent was away for the weekend, his daughter and son-in-law were wonderful! For our first camping adventure with our new rv, they were patient, gracious, and helpful throughout all of our learning curves. They even lent us some equipment for the night. Thanks for the top notch first time out! We couldn’t have found a better spot.

Kent was a kind and welcoming host. Him and his family made us feel welcomed. They have a great playground for campers with kids.

You might not know it from the road, but Orrasis Ranch is the perfect little retreat for hipcampers interested in sustainable community living. When we turned onto the drive, we were amazed by the beauty of Kent’s space. The main office and a few tiny homes make up the outer “edge”, and a huge fire pit serves as the center point of the property. We parked our bus in one of the two RV/van spaces, and took off to explore. There is a play/entertainment area, and swings hang from two cedar trees between the RV spaces; perfect for families with kids, or grown ups who are just big kids at heart. The tent camping area is open and grassy, with more tent camping area being developed in the wooded area near the back of the property; a shower/bathroom is also in the works nearby.

We sat down around the fire pit and watched the sun set over the trees. There was plenty of dry wood to burn, and even though we were close to the main road, there was very little noise pollution; after a while we forgot the road was there. This dark sky location would be great for people interested in stargazing.

While Kent wasn’t available for a meet and greet, he was very responsive to the few questions we had via text. Our only regret is that we only stayed for one night. If you’re looking for a quiet place to recharge, look no further than Orrasis Ranch.
