No WiFi, unreliable cell signal - should be advertised!!!!!
I was surprised upon arrival there was no WiFi and suggested to the owner that he should have made that clear in the property description. He was defensive and asked if I was questioning his integrity - then offered me a partial refund for promising to not write a review. Some integrity. If I could rate just the furniture it would be a 5/10. Old and uncomfortable. There was no outdoor furniture except a couple battered dining chairs and a two decorative benches. Nothing to lounge on or a table. The gate sucked especially at night. Could not locate a single smoke detector or carbon monoxide detector on the property. Nice house, quiet surroundings, but nowhere near a 10/10 get real.

Annual gathering of four high school friends! Enjoyed catching up with each other, working on crafts and quaint town of Castroville TX. Very comfortable stay, not sure would recommend for senior adults given the spiral staircase. A little disappointed with the condition of chairs in living room but not a game changer. Beds and bedding very comfortable. End result was a good experience.

Peaceful
Peaceful place in the country. Very clean and comfortable. If you need WiFi- this isn’t the place for you. There is a gate that you have to get out to open and close each time, an electric key pad and automatic gate would be nice, especially when it’s raining. We went to a local winery called Medina River Winery. Did the tasting with the owner, sunsets there were breathtaking. The local bakery and meat market are a must! Blu Lacey BBQ was out of this world! Great town for a day or two, San Antonio was just 30 minutes away and worth going into for the day. Overall the house was perfect. We walked the property and got to see all the beauty nature has to offer. Didn’t see any cows or donkeys but did have two cats they were very friendly come to visit us each evening. If we are ever in the area we will definitely come back to stay here. The host John was available if needed.

Cattle Country 120 acre Ranch
We absolutely had a blast feeding the black angus cows and Baby Girl, the donkey. We bought cattle treats from Tractor Supply locally and cold long stem carrots from the local Walmart. Our family also raised cows, so we were familiar with them and hand fed a few. The cows came every morning around 9 am and by day four, they were gathered “mooing”for us to come outside. (smart cows). The big bull would hang back and observed. Castroville is a small town gem. We recommend Blu Lacy Smokehouse for the best bbq and sides and don’t forget your bucket of beers from the bar. The local Mexican restaurant was fantastic too, El Portal de Jalisco. The Red Rooster which is a drive thru party store where you can also get frozen daiquiris and margaritas (heavy on the liquor-beware😳) There is a Dairy Queen, McDonald’s and a Pizza place, also a Dollar Tree plus everything you would want in San Antonio. We visited in April, low 70’s, and enjoyed The Fiesta in San Antonio. We visited The Alamo twice and recommend the city parking for $10, closer lots were $25-30 for parking. So much to see and do, but the quietness of the Ranch was the downtime that we needed at the end of a busy day. The narrated boat ride in downtown San Antonio was a lot of fun and neat to see the city from a different viewpoint. The gate lock can be difficult to see at night. I would recommend having a bright light available. We visited family and enjoyed our stay, Travelers from Michigan

This is the second time we stayed at the ranch. The home is nice and cozy, close enough to town to grab groceries or dinner and river activities yet far enough where you can enjoy the night sky in peace and quiet. Highly recommend this place and we look forward coming back soon.

This property fits the bill perfectly if you want to get away from the city, internet, and traffic!! After our grandson's HS graduation, we just wanted a quiet place to unwind and relax. This property was quiet, clean, and situated in an awesome country setting! The host, John Garza, was excellent. We highly recommend this property!!
