We had a wonderful stay at Bluebonnet Ridge near Belton. This was our second time visiting, as my parents live in nearby Salado, and it continues to be the perfect spot for our family gatherings.This trip was especially meaningful as we were able to take family photos with my 94-year-old parents, and the peaceful, quiet setting made it even more special. The property is in an ideal location—convenient yet very serene.Everything about the stay was excellent. The home was well-maintained, comfortable, and exactly what we needed. The hosts were great to work with—very responsive and easy throughout the entire process.We highly recommend this property and look forward to staying again in the future.
My family and I enjoyed our stay tremendously, the host was accommodating and available. The home was large and spacious, plenty of room for my family and I. The back porch is a wonderful place to relax and town is not very far away. I would recommend this home for any large family wanting a retreat place. Thank you again for allowing us to stay.
The property was exactly what we were looking for and in a perfect location. Extremely clean and comfortable, like being home. Plenty of room to accommodate everyone. Close to the interstate, yet secluded with a great view and perfect sunset. The rockers on the back porch added a special touch for relaxing and enjoying conversation.
This is a great place for a weekend get away. It is quite and has a great country feel. I would recommend this place to anyone needing a place in central Texas.
My family and I stayed at Bluebonnet Ridge for the weekend of a family wedding and it was the perfect location! We had more than enough room for our family and the surrounding area is beautiful. Our host was very accommodating and let us have a late check out so we could host a family brunch the day after the wedding.
This is one of my favorites in Belton. Quiet and remote very comfortable and a lovely home. So close to everything it is truly a great location. Highly recommend !!!
We loved our stay at this home! We got to meet one of the owners and he was very kind and helpful! We loved learning about the farm and its history. The home is updated but keeps its county and historical beautify! It accommodated all 14 of us! The king back porch looking out over the landscape was the best!
Our family members met at the house for a family reunion.
The setting of the house is charming and quiet. Everyone enjoyed the house. The kids loved the upstairs area. And the guys enjoyed the outside areas. The living room and kitchen area accommodated all of us when we gather together. The house is well stocked with everything you need. We would stay at this property again.
property is off the beaten path in a very peaceful setting.
everything was super clean. pretty much everything we needed such as towels, soap, dish soap, etc,etc was furnished. the property manager was extremely fast at responding to any communication we had. I would highly recommend this rental
Four women who have been close friends for many years really enjoyed our stay at Bluebonnet Ridge. It is a large, comfortable home with a cozy, country feel. It was so nice to sit out on the back porch and take in the nice view. City folks will enjoy seeing the cattle and an occasional deer. Sunsets in the evening were so pretty! The home is very clean and well maintained and has a great layout. We all highly recommend this home!
The booking and questions we had from our host were done so smoothly. The home was beautiful and so clean. Our family LOVED it. We had a family wedding to attend and it was going to be outdoors on a farm not too far away. The weather was windy, cold and rainy, not the best combination for an outdoor wedding. But we knew that a warm house, bath and bed were waiting for us to greet us after everything. Would highly recommend this property to anyone needing a get away place.
Bluebonnet Ridge is a jewel in the Texas countryside. Beautiful views of live oaks and deer off the back porch. The kitchen is open, well equipped and easy to move about in. It lacked for nothing and we spent three nights. The dining room table handled eight of us easily. Bedrooms were cute and comfortable. Our favorite area to gather was the loving room and the three comfy couches several movies were watched and lots of talking took place. Communication between host and our group was excellent—the best I have ever encountered in a vacation rental. We look forward to another stay perhaps next spring when the bluebonnets are blooming.
Our family had a lovely time at Bluebonnet Ridge Farm. We were in town for our daughter's UMHB graduation, and this location and house fit exactly what we needed. We could not have been happier with the property, the view from the covered porch out back, and the house itself. The house was very well appointed and comfortable. The owners were excellent to respond to my communications and accommodating to our needs. I only wish we had the time to stay longer, as I could certainly imagine taking some downtime in this serene setting. I certainly hope to return again, and enjoy more bird and cattle watching while sipping tea on the swing from the back porch. We had a slight issue checking in, but it was due to the VRBO app not working properly for us. It was quickly resolved once the owners were made aware. All this to say, I would highly recommend spending some time at Bluebonnet Ridge Farm. Enjoy the love that has been poured into it.
