We contacted the manager in November hoping to stay at one of the other ranches in his network but all of them were already booked. So he introduced us to this new property that had just been listed. So glad he did. This is our third time to stay at one of the Texas Family Reunion properties. (We’ve actually stayed at a new ranch every year). They all have maps so that you can drive and explore the land and see the sights. We drove around and around the ranch as a family. We always go camping at state parks and one of our kids said, “This is like our very own state park.” Another one said, “More like a national park.” Yeah, it's a huge place. The roads are good enough for any car. Ranches are the best places to host a family reunion and this place is one of the best.  Read More...

The parents loved it. The kids begged us not to leave. When 2 of my nieces started tugging my skirt and crying I made them ride home in a different car. This was a great place. An escape from reality!!! Read More...

My family and I were very impressed with this property. More than we expected to be. The lodge is absolutely huge. And right down to the silverware everything was first class. (Something you can’t tell by the pictures). Half the meals were catered and the other half we cooked ourselves. Phil set up the catering for us and we were very pleased with how prompt it was and the food was great. The kitchen is hard to beat. There is no possibility of being interrupted by neighbors and you can stay up late and be as loud as you like. Off of the porch there is this big sprawling view of the Colorado River and there were deer and more turkey than I've seen before. Most Airbnb houses are just places you stay while you go on vacation - but this place is the vacation. Satisfied customer.  Read More...

It was a great reunion at the Lone Star River Ranch. Phil was easy to get ahold of when we needed something. We were there for 2 days and didn’t see half the place. What we did see we loved. Coyotes running and turtles on the riverbank and lots of trails to explore. At one point our group got out of the truck and just walked across a field for an hour for no reason at all. I love places like this. Read More...

My family and I have had 10 straight family reunions north of Brownwood and this year we decided to make a change. What a great decision. The Lone Star River Ranch has so much more room than the places we’ve stayed before., and more to do. I haven’t been able to walk around on so much land since I was a kid (50 years ago) and the land was nothing like this (I’m not a Texas native). We caught catfish in the river and I went rock and feather hunting with my granddaughters. A refreshing 4-star facility. Thanks for the memories at Lone Star!

Huge place - we didn’t see everything. The managers did a great job selling us on the place and telling us everywhere to go. I’m a city girl and don’t like the country very much; I thought it would be too rustic - but I have to admit I had a great time and its a super clean place in the country - even for a city girl.

We enjoyed sitting outside after it began to cool down. Lots of room outside for the kids to run amuck. Lots of places to sleep and the kitchen is outstanding!
