Private Ranch | Pool, Spa & Game Barn on 22 Acres

Built beginning in 1848 and over several generations, Grand Oaks Ranch is a historic limestone farmhouse sleeping 16 on 22 private Hill Country acre with a resort pool, hot tub, fire pit, and barn.

Unwind by the pool, sip wine at sunset, roast s’mores in the fire pit, or take on your friends in a late-night ping pong battle. Whether you’re here with family, friends, or a wedding party, this is the Hill Country retreat you’ll be talking about long after you leave.
<br>This is the kind of place where mornings start slow and nights end late.

The pool and hot tub sit under open sky with views of the hills. The game barn has shuffleboard, ping pong, and a poker table for the inevitable tournament. The fire pit is big enough for everyone and stays lit as long as you do (subject to county burn ban status. We'll let you know before your stay). And the kitchen is fully stocked for the person in your group who insists on cooking breakfast.

Out on the property, cows, goats, donkeys, and horses go about their day. They're part of what makes this place feel special.

WEDDINGS & EVENTS
Grand Oaks Ranch is a dedicated wedding venue, not just a rental with extra space. We host celebrations for up to 100 guests with ceremony and reception spaces, professional-grade furnishings, and on-site lodging.

Wedding packages are priced separately from the nightly stay and vary by season, day of the week, and guest count. To give you a rough sense of investment:
Weekday celebrations (Mon–Thu, venue only): from $1,250
Full wedding weekends (Fri–Sun, rehearsal dinner through farewell brunch): from $2,450

These are starting rates. Your specific quote depends on your date, season, and package. Message us with your preferred date and estimated guest count and we'll send you our complete pricing guide with everything spelled out.

What's included with every wedding package:
- Ceremony + reception spaces (barn, turf lawn, full grounds)
- 100 Chiavari chairs, farm tables, benches & wine barrels
- Pool, spa, and fire pit access for your guests
- Caterer's prep kitchen with commercial fridge & freestanding ice maker

Every couple at Grand Oaks also gets access to our planning portal. It's where your wedding comes together - a shared checklist, vendor tracking, timeline builder, layout planner and everything you and our team need to make sure your day runs smoothly. Whether you're working with a professional planner or managing it yourselves, the portal keeps everyone on the same page.

Coming Summer 2026: Six grain silo homes sleeping up to 40 additional overnight guests, held exclusively for your wedding group.

Important: All events require advance approval and are booked directly with our team, not through the standard house booking. Message us with your date, guest count, and a brief description of what you're envisioning, and we'll walk you through options and pricing.
