Midweek Getaway

My sister and I looked to get out of the city noise and enjoy some peace and quiet. This place delivers. Brandi gave excellent suggestions for hiking trails and made a very easy check in and check out. Will definitely return…maybe in fall when a bit cooler.

Absolutely Wonderful and Peaceful

The owner was very responsive and quick to answer all my questions. The property was very peaceful and a beautiful area. It was closely situated near Dinosaur Valley State Park and Fossil Rim which we visited and enjoyed. The stay here also allowed for a discount at Fossil Rim. You will absolutely not go wrong staying at this location.

The pictures do not do this property justice! We loved the house and the property is so gorgeous! Glen Rose itself has a lot to offer. Everyone working on the ranch was full of information and so nice. Thank you for a great family vacation spot!

Romantic, fun, spiritual and relaxing experience

This place is very tranquil and peacefully and has something to offer for everyone. I enjoyed the spa, the kitchen and the coffee in the mornings looking at the sunrise; My husband loved the animals and the hiking trails. As a family, we all have something to do and as soon we were leaving we felt nostalgia for all the memories that were behind. The workers are so nice, they make you feel at home, the garden with Robert and Brandi, Emmy and Robert and of course Sandy, they all are so kind, we will miss this place since we spent a month in here. Very much recommended.

Simply AMAZING!!!

We booked this trip to get a secluded get-away, and it was just perfect for that! The property had so much to offer (gorgeous hiking, goat feeding, small fishing pond (where my daughter caught her first fish!), super close proximity to Fossil Rim, and a peaceful and serene vibe that was so relaxing our whole family! We also loved the Kasa Casa house itself! Stocked with everything you would need, lots of space, and a quirky hot tub in the middle of the living room - who doesn't love that?!? We absolutely loved it and will be back!

Nothing Better

This is our second time here. I must say that this property and the owners are second to none in hospitality, relaxation and positive energy! Great soaks, sauna sessions, hikes, conversations without TV and BOOKS that will talk to your spirit. If I don't stop writing now, you will get a whole novel about our stay. Book now but don't take our weekend!(jk)

Wonderful place

We had a great time in this amazing ranch, we could not have found better place to spend a long weekend. The house is perfect for a family with 3 kids, and has everything you need. There are several trails to walk and enjoy the views, the environment, watching birds...we were lucky enough to visit during bluebonnet season. Flowers were so beautiful! Our 3 kids were happy to feed the goats, they would not have missed it! They already asked when we would go back. Their favorite place was goat cave, but enjoyed a lot fossil search as well. Dinosaur Valley is close and Safari park `s entrance is just 5 minutes, but this ranch offers so much, you don` t need to leave at all. We will definitely come back!

Awesome Family Getaway

Kasa Casa is a beautiful, clean, lovingly decorated, and excellently managed guest house. We appreciated Sandra's hospitality and the amenities and information available. (Hot tub! Sauna! Board games! Puzzles! Kitchen supplies! And more!) We enjoyed a hike with the kids, checking out the fascinating features of the property, like the stone circle and goat cave. The kids had fun feeding the goats. I enjoyed coffee and a book out on the porch with a beautiful view before me. There was so much to do, all of it relaxing and refreshing. We are already talking about coming back with more family members in the future. The proximity to Fossil Rim and Dinosaur State Park is incredible!

This unique and special home was a perfect spot for our family to unplug and spend time together. We enjoyed hiking throughout the property, treasured our encounters with wildlife and can not wait to return! This is such a special place maintained by very special people

A great family getaway!

The High Hope ranch family was friendly, welcoming and very accommodating. We had a large family gathering and booked Habari & Kasa Casa. It was everything that we had hoped for. There is something for everyone. If you want to just relax in comfort, away from the hustle and bustle, it is perfect for that. If you want to go hiking, see wildlife and discover really cool fossils, it is perfect for that (I definitely recommend going down through Goat Cave and down the Woods Trail). If you want to read books or play games, the houses are stocked with plenty of both. The ranch is just a few minutes away from the entrance to Fossil Rim Wildlife Center which boasts over 50 different species of wildlife from around the world (if you have never seen a baby giraffe running around on awkward and wobbly legs, you need to go). I would definitely recommend the High Hope Ranch, and you would be hard-pressed to find a better group of people to work with. My family will definitely be returning.

Perfection

We chose to stay here for a birthday "vacay" for our five year old son, along with our sever year old daughter. It was an absolutely perfect balance of relaxation and exploration. You truly have to see the property and the land to appreciate its beauty. Sandra was an incredible host-I cannot emphasize that enough! She did a fun safety pledge with the kids, helped us map out trails to explore, and did everything to help us make the most of our stay. We all cannot wait to return!

Perfect getaway

The house, the ranch and everyone involved with the property are absolutely amazing. If you are looking for a perfect spot to relax and enjoy nature you cannot find a more appropriate location. We highly recommend for a romantic or family escape. The house is all the amenities you could ask for and beautifully decorated. The outside porches and sundecks are great for enjoying the fresh air and star gazing. There are plenty of trails / ranch roads to explore. Fossil Rim Wildlife Refuge is just moments away (the property adjoins the Refuge) and has an incredible amount of wildlife to enjoy. The property team are amazing and extremely accommodating. My only issue with rating this property as highly as it deserves to be is that we want to return again soon and I don't want others to discover this hidden gem!!! :-) Seriously a perfect 10!! You will not regret booking this property!

The four of us had an excellent escape. Plenty to do even with rainy weather.

Directions to the property were spot on. The house was beautiful and very clean, stocked with everything we needed. The weather was unusually rainy which made the hot tub even more enjoyable. Sandy is an excellent host going above and beyond in every way to ensure our comfort. We especially enjoyed the great assortment of books and music. Looking forward to returning soon and exploring the property further! Thanks Sandy!
