Property Description

Have you ever found the perfect vacation rental spot out in the country, only to find that it's SO out in the country that there's nothing nearby? You won't encounter that frustration with Lucky Star Ranch Stargazer cabin! For one thing, it's convenient to awesome Hill Country towns like Hondo and Bandera. Those who prefer the great outdoors will love the location, too, because there are state parks and natural areas that are less than an hour away; one of them, in fact, is a three-mile drive!

The Lucky Star Ranch is a must for nature lovers, with its trees and Hill Country views! What's more, though, is the Hill Country State Natural Area is just three miles down the road; it's a wonderful place to hike, ride horseback, and admire wildlife. The Lost Maples State Natural Area and Garner State Park are both within an hour's drive from your cabin, as well!

It's hard to find a more animal-friendly vacation rental than Lucky Star Ranch Stargazer cabin! The friendly goats, chickens, and ducks on the property love to be pet, and one of the "stars" is a dwarf Nigerian goat named Baby, who won first place in the Bandera 4th of July Pet Parade. There are horses you can pet, too, but not ride; however, boarding is available for your own horse. Check with us for details; a negative Coggins test is required. You can bring along a pet, as long as they get along with farm animals and are leashed on the property; limit one pet per cabin.

Amenities begin before you even enter your guest cabin! There's a shaded porch with rocking chairs for relaxing outside, perfect for morning coffee or a nightcap. Picnic tables and a charcoal grill are here for your favorite BBQ recipes, and a fire pit (firewood included) for s'mores and conversation. Laundry facilities are also available. Keep in mind outdoor extras and games are shared with two other cabins at Lucky Star. If you'd like to bring a larger group, the three cabins here sleep up to nine!

Golden woodwork and natural light fills Lucky Star Ranch Stargazer cabin's interior, arranged in a studio layout with a bedroom, dining nook and kitchenette. The plush queen-sized bed sleeps two, and you can add a rollaway bed for one more person. The kitchenette includes a fridge, a microwave that doubles as a regular oven, a Keurig coffee maker, and basic utensils and serving ware. A Roku-ready smart TV is on hand, too, as well as Wifi service and efficient heating and cooling units. You'll have a clean full bath with a shower stall, and fresh linens are provided for both bed and bath.

One of my favorite air bnbs! I had a wonderful stay! The home was super clean, thoughtfully decorated, and had such a cozy, welcoming vibe. their customer service was impressive as well. I highly recommend this spot and will be staying here again in the future!
Christian
If we could give this place 10 stars we would!! Tracy is by far the absolute BEST Airbnb host we’ve ever had! She’s extremely hospitable, kind, and she instantly responds whenever you need something! She allowed us to roam around her ranch and play with the goats and her dogs! It’s a beautiful area and she helped us find things to do in the area. My wife and I had such a beautiful experience, it was a reminder there is still kind people in the world. And we will be back next month and any other time we visit Bandera TX.
Rodney
We really enjoyed staying at this cabin! We liked that it was truly in the middle of nowhere and quiet. It wasn’t a far drive to hiking spots and downtown Bandera. Would definitely stay here again!
