Located on historic 400 acres Still Waters Ranch (www.stillwatersranchtx.com) offers, for your EXCLUSIVE USE, a recently restored Bungalow with fully equipped kitchen, small living room and eating area with four bedrooms and two bathrooms as well as laundry facilities. Three additional buildings are available with four bedrooms and three baths to accommodate up to 20 people total.

The base rate pays for up to a total of nine guests and entitles your group to use the Bungalow and have access to three additional buildings.
Each additional person over nine (9) people is priced at $50/person /night. Children aged 4 or younger are free--do not count them when reserving your stay. The optional additional buildings are described below and are yours to use at no additional cost except a one-time cleaning fee of $100 or $150 for each optional additional building used. Many photos on this site provide a visual of the ranch where we lived and have nurtured for the last 28 years.

BUNGALOW (total cost is included in the base rate of VRBO): There are four bedrooms: master with king bed, 2nd has queen bed, 3rd has two twin beds, and the 4th has both a twin and a double bed. A junior bed and/or a crib are available. Baths include master with double sinks and a shower; another bath has a shower/tub combination. The Bungalow can accommodate nine (9) people-see bed arrangement below. The Bungalow is priced at the base rate per night and is THE ONLY BUILDING YOU ARE RENTING when you book 9 guest or fewer. However, you may use three more buildings at no additional cost except for paying a single cleaning fee for each additional building you use as described above and below.

The following THREE ADDITIONAL BUILDINGS are available to you for an additional cleaning and utility fee regardless of the size of your group. If you just want more space to spread out your group with additional beds and bathrooms, you may use these buildings.
Cleaning and utility fees for the additional buildings are $150 for the bunkhouse, $100 for the cabin and $100 for the Casita and are not included in the posted VRBO fee but will be added to your final VRBO account. Those fees are payable prior to or upon your arrival when you decide what additional buildings you want to use. These additional building fees are added only if and when you decide to use any of the additional buildings.
BUNKHOUSE: The Bunkhouse has beds and a bath for up to seven (7) people: King bed, three (3) single beds, and a double Bunk bed plus bath with a shower.
CABIN: The Cabin has two (2) single beds. a full small kitchen and a bath with shower.
CASITA: The 1860's Casita is the small original lodging of the German settlers and has a double bed and a bathroom with a shower.
Extra cleaning has been added between guests to reduce the possibility of Covid or other organism transmission. Our protocol is: wipe down hard surfaces with disinfectant, super chlorinate the pool, launder towels and bedding with hot water, using bleach if possible.
We do not allow off road vehicles, firecrackers or campfires. We do not rent to anyone under 25 years of age. All guests coming to the ranch must be registered on the liability forms; children are listed on the adult’s form. No dogs, cats, or other pets are allowed. There are several nearby commercial kennels we can recommend. You may encounter a variety of wild and domesticated animals that roam freely on the ranch. If you are not comfortable with that possibility, this may not be the VRBO vacation spot for you.
Every overnight guest as well as every day guest must sign liability release agreements immediately upon arriving to use any ranch facilities other than the building reserved. All payments must be made prior to or immediately upon arriving at the ranch to access the property.
The ranch is located 13 miles north of 1604, the outer loop around San Antonio. Here you can experience the quietness and peace of rural life after a tiring day of sightseeing or adventure. We are less than 40 minutes from Sea World, Fiesta Texas, The Alamo and Riverwalk, Schlitterbahn in New Braunfels, tubing and antiquing in Gruene, Natural Bridge Caverns and Wildlife Park, Cave Without a Name, shopping and dining in Boerne and Guadalupe State Park where you can play in the river, picnic, and hike.
The incredible views and features of this historic ranch, marked with a commemorative plaque from the state of Texas, make this a lovely choice. We raise Wagyu cattle and have trophy whitetail deer for serious hunters. Ranch tours are available at owner’s discretion and are offered to guests staying three nights or more.
Events and parties can be accommodated for birthdays, family reunions, small weddings (maximum total of 35 people) and similar celebrations. There is a $10 day fee for day guests older than 4 years and a $200 party fee and a $200 refundable cleaning fee. Let us know what you are planning, and we will do our best to accommodate you.
