Casitas at Madrona Ranch - Homestead

The Homestead has amazing views of the hill country and nature.

So many varying factors go into placing a location among the top-rated vacation rentals in Pipe Creek, and the Homestead at Madrona Ranch has it all covered! It's perched right in the heart of the beautiful Hill Country, it has tons of amenities and comforts, and it can accommodate larger gatherings, such as family reunions, receptions, and company retreats. Pipe Creek and Boerne are close by, too, so there's the convenience of being close to town while still enjoying a remote country setting.

14 sprawling acres are yours on this waterfront property, a gorgeous mountain view vacation rental that will be the centerpiece of your next Hill Country getaway. If you're seeking a gathering spot for a large group of people, the covered open-air patio here provides a wonderful country setting, with plenty of seating and tables. The property is surrounded by several winding country roads which are perfect for auto or motorcycle tours, as well.

The enormous shaded patio is the focus here, with ample space and a food and drink station, along with a fire pit and barbecue grill. Red Bluff Creek runs through the property, and its waters are perfect for relaxing and wildlife-watching. Water access may depend on the depth and/or season, so confirm this with us when you book. Madrona Ranch allows small pets, so long as they're leashed.

The Homestead's 2,000 square foot space features woodwork and comfy furniture, and a spiral staircase that leads to the loft. Eight beds provide feather-soft slumber for up to ten people: the master has a king; the second bedroom, a queen; and the third has a trundle bed-a single bed with a pull-out single beneath. Finally, there are four double beds up in the loft. The master bath has a large tiled shower, and the second shared bath also has a roomy shower stall. All bed and bath linens are provided, and there are laundry facilities. The full kitchen includes modern appliances, cookware, and serving ware. Satellite TV, a DVD player, wireless Internet, and cell service round out your tech amenities.

We at Backroads Reservations are proud to present the Homestead at Madrona Ranch as one of the greatest Texas Hill Country cabins for family getaways! We'd love to hear from you, and put you on the path to this beautiful destination for your next gathering.

Out in the country

Peaceful, quiet farmhouse! If you really need to get away from it all, this is a good spot. We really enjoyed feeding and watching the deer and just sitting on the wrap around porch. The hot tub at night was fun. The master bedroom is very spacious and the bed is extremely comfortable. Unfortunately the guest mattresses need to be replaced. The owners are very responsive and live on the property. We had some issues with the septic and oven which I’m sure were addressed. But we loved the cozy farmhouse feel and the absolute quiet!

Nice and quiet

We enjoyed our stay. Property was in a great location for us to take our day trips from. The girls enjoyed having their own bedrooms. The hot tub was enjoyed by all as well. Communication with the host was perfect. We enjoyed sitting out on the porch and in the yard early morning and in the evenings enjoying the peace, quiet and wildlife the would meander by. The property had everything we needed to prepare our meals and feel like ‘home’ while we were there. Would definitely recommend this property.

Great spot

We had some issues with the property owners and the advertised 14 acres of trails is actually limited to a small field in front of the cabin but overall we had a great stay. The house was clean and we did not lack for kitchen equipment or utensils, the ac units work wonderfully and the upstairs loft area was a big hit with our kids.
