Tucked away in the most heavenly corner of the Texas Hill Country sits King River Ranch, a sprawling 25-acre paradise that offers its guests a perfect blend of private luxury and natural beauty. Upon driving through the gates, the KRR guest is greeted by our exclusive quarter-mile of the Pedernales River to enjoy and explore. The eye never ceases to be dazzled by impossibly charming barns, expansive horse pastures filled with friendly farm animals, the peacefully flowing river, and cinematic views in every direction, all within feet from the front door of this ultimate Hill Country getaway.

Just a stone's throw downriver from the Lyndon B. Johnson Family Ranch, KRR is conveniently located 20 minutes from shopping and dining in Fredericksburg, 25 minutes to water sports at Horseshoe Bay, under one-hour to downtown ATX and SATX, and just a skip-and-a-jump to the historic town of Hye, the epicenter of the Hill Country wineries. Being in the heart of the one of the most popular destinations in the entire Lone Star State, there is literally no end to the things to do in the immediate area.

The River Cottage is a gorgeous ranch house perched above the river on one side and panoramic views of the magnificent King Barn, horse pastures and fishing pond. The Suite is a generous and luxuriant private space built just for two, with a grand canopy bed from where you can watch deer gently cross the river. The River Cottage and Suite are included in every stay. Ask about your micro-wedding and elopement packages!

    We traveled with my husband's family for a long weekend. This was a perfect spot for us.

    We absolutely loved our time at the property. Our daughter who had autism bonded with the animals, the younger ones loved the river and the adults enjoyed the ease of everyone enjoying themselves. We cooked meals in and spent our time on the property. We also went into town and liked the museums.

    The property was great and perfect for our family vacation. The kids enjoyed interacting with the animals and exploring the river bed. The location is close enough to Fredericksburg without being in the city. However, there was no spa/whirlpool, no satellite/cable, and no ice maker available as stated on the VRBO listing. Also, there was no wi-fi in the suite.

    We had an amazing time at King River Ranch. Everything was as promised and the animals added a nice touch. I highly recommend this property for large groups.

    This property exceeded our expectation! The pictures do not do this beautiful ranch sprawl justice. There was so much we could do on the property that we almost didn't go to the various sightseeing places nearby. There were 10 of us and this property accommodated our group more than nicely. We had teenagers and young adult children in our group (16, 17, 18, 19, 27, 27). THEY LOVED IT!! We were pleasantly surprised to see they were uninterested in all their personal technology and while the house had a large screen TV and WiFi, we barely used it! For us, this was EXACTLY what we wanted. In addition, this was suppose to be a float the river kind of trip but COVID-19 restrictions were reinstated the same weekend we arrived in the area. HOWEVER, because there is a river on the property, we were still able to float the river albeit a little different type experience. It was better because we had the river all to ourselves! Much to our surprise, we didn't know that the property is actually a beautiful wedding venue. There is an extraordinary platform just down from the house and about halfway to the river where the wedding ceremonies are held. One evening at dusk, my husband lit the candle lanterns that are part of the platform without my knowledge. He called me to come meet him and when I arrived our favorite song was playing on his bluetooth speaker while the candlelight and sunset created the most incredible ambiance!! OMG!! We slow danced to a couple of songs and then called the rest of our family to join us. Their reaction was priceless! THANK YOU KRR!! This was definitely one of the BEST family vacations EVER! God bless Texas, I wouldn't want to live anywhere else. Steve & Renee Friendswood, TX
