Charming 2 bedroom cottage with private pool in the heart of the Texas Hill Coun

Three Horses Ranch offers the perfect escape in the heart of the Texas Hill Country. Located in Johnson City, this artsy gem is only thirty minutes from Fredericksburg and just minutes from several wonderful wineries. A plethora of activities and stunning scenery await you at the famous Pedernales Fall State Park just a short fifteen minute drive away.
At the ranch the serenity of your surroundings are sure to melt away your troubles. Take in the beauty of a starry night sky as you unwind in your private swimming pool or lounge on the large deck right outside your back door as you watch the deer grazing nearby. A hammock provides a relaxing spot for a nap in the breeze, and on those chilly winter nights gather around the outdoor fire pit with hot chocolate and roasted marshmallows. There is a very friendly dog and a cat at this property.

This delightful retreat has an open floor plan with an inviting living room, kitchen and dining area. The master suite offers a queen bed and a cheery private bath. In the living area the queen sofa sleeper allows for two additional guests who will enjoy the comfort and convenience of their own full bathroom.

Relaxing getaway

This property is remote while being close to lots to do.The property was clean and well maintained. The king bed was so comfy.The pool and deck were my favorite place when we came in from Fredericksburg, Wimberly and San Marcos. We needed a quiet get away and it was perfect for us, but with the extra beds and 2 full bathrooms it would be great for a family with kids too. We would highly recommend this amazing property

My 10yo son, our pup, and I had such a wonderful time here! Such a charming ranch home to spend a relaxing time in. The kitchen is equipped with everything you’d need - the best I’ve ever encountered during vacation rental stays. There is a crate, bed, toys, water and food bowls for dogs. The pool, hot tub, hammock, swing, and rocking chairs are all well maintained and such fantastic perks to staying here. We are also grateful for the ranch kitty overlords and appreciate that they let us pet them. We will definitely be back!

The property is perfect with the refreshing pool, deck for sipping coffee, friendly horses nearby, and the surrounding natural views of Texas Hill country. The place is quiet and peaceful and yet only 7 minutes to Johnson City. The owner, Tami, is very friendly and has stocked the house better than most VRBOs with plenty of coffee, paper products, kitchen/bathroom/laundry supplies, towels, pool toys, etc. We essentially didn’t need a thing and loved our week long trip.

TRANQUILITY, PEACE, JOY, NATURE

Property was just as listed. We weren't expecting a five star hotel. But it was a five star home nestled away in nature. Best place if you have a pet. Very roomy. Enough to sleep six people perhaps 7. All the amenities of home are provided. Also, not far from civilization only five minutes to the main road. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you so much.

Property was just as described, it had everything you would need from pot and pants to extra towels and sheets of all sizes. The outdoor area was great it was too cold to get in the pool but the hot tub was great!!The only negative thing I can say was that I expected to meet the owner or at least the person that was in charge of taking care of the property. Just to get information about the area or tell us about the property and animals.But overall I would definitely book again!

Worst experience ever.

We arrived at the building and the owner was doing her laundry in the location we were supposed to stay. The entire place smelled like a dirty dog or farm animals, there were dog beds, blankets and stuff everywhere because she thought we had dogs. I explained that we both could not stand the smell. Tami told me to call the office and to have them call her and she would let us out of the reservation. When I contacted the office they told me that they spoke with her and she was not going to let us out of the reservation. I did book another location to stay but I am not satisfied with not getting a refund and I do not feel like I should have to pay since Tami stated that she would let me out of the reservastiobn. I would greatly like for the manger/owner to contact me please.
