Come stay in our recently remodeled family homestead that was built in the 1880’s. It’s a relaxing getaway on a true Texas cattle ranch that has been operated by our family for well over 100 years.

We have another rental house listed as Koch Ranch - Cabin which is located next door. Many guests rent both houses. They are far enough apart where each house has privacy from each other, but groups are close enough to enjoy their stay together.

    The host (David) was very responsive. The property was perfect for our family. House is rustic but adequate for a large family. We will be back.

    What a wonderful and peaceful venue. We had our Family Xmas here and just enjoyed the peace and quiet and nostalgic setting. David was super responsive and easy to work with. Directions were clear and everything was exactly as described. We are making plans to return.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! There is so much history in the home. The front porch was amazing with the rocking chairs. The beds were so comfortable. The living space is large and we had plenty of room to spread out. One of our favorite spots was the fire pit. We saw deer and the longhorns were gorgeous. We also had a great time in Columbus and can highly recommend the food and shopping there. Great vacation retreat. Host was exceptional also

    Great spot, lots of ways to kick back and relax. Outside the city but close enough to Columbus for anything you might need. Lots of history. Definitely recommend!

    Booked this house for a weekend of waterfowl hunting with my parents and friends. We could have got a motel/hotel in Columbus but I am so glad we didn’t! The home has an amazing history and the story of the home and family is told throughout the home. Communication with the owner was very easy and they responded quickly. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to coming back next year to do it all again.
