Perhaps you are old enough to remember the good old western movies with the ruggedly beautiful, gently rolling Texas type scenery in the background of the cattle drive or the weary rider heading off into the sunset. Escondido Ranch, located in south central Texas is exactly like that Hollywood version of the Old West, complete with mesquite brush, hills and wooded areas, and the low canyons perfect for those early morning sunrise or late evening sunset opportunities. This home sits on the Johnson Fork Creek of the Llano River. It is a peaceful spot out in the Hill Country where you can watch wildlife pass by, enjoy the swimming in the Johnson Fork Creek, relax on the spacious back porch, enjoy family time grilling and hanging out at the gazebo, and soak in the natural beauty surrounding you. If you have a larger party check out our other listing on the same property. Airbnb.com/h/escondidoranch-guest-lodge Please note that both listings have access to the same approximately a mile of Johnson Fork of the Llano river. Both listings could be concurrently booked. Guests can access the river right below the house but we prefer swim spots about 5min upriver. To reach these spots you will need to drive along a road.
