Dec 7, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Best VRBO ever The ranch and facilities are amazing and a fun place to be. The hosts Raina and Kyle gave us a ranch tour of the 2000 acres, seeing elk, sika, oryx and lots of other game. The lodge is huge with a full commercial kitchen and plenty of room and super clean. My rock band had a recording session there and Kyle played the guitar and Raina sang with us- a great time. I highly recommend this 5 star property- we are goinig back ASAP. ##### Ron B. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Aya A. Oct 25, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### October Family Trip We spent a few days in October and Sol Y Sombra with family. This was such an amazing piece of land. The pictures don't include the 2000acres of beautiful ranch land and exotic animals we encountered! Once we arrived, we never left the property until the day of checkout. There's fishing, target shooting, hiking, swimming, and just plain lounging. Kids loved petting/feeding the goats, alpaca and donkey. They especially enjoyed the media room inside the party barn. Raina and Kyle are fantastic. Raina was quick to respond to any questions and very accommodating. Kyle was very knowledgeable about the animals. They were both so welcoming and engageable. I can't say enough good things about this rental and the owners. We're looking forward to returning. ##### Aya A. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alfredo S. Jul 21, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing Weekend Trip Let me start off by saying that Raina was an amazing host and was very nice. The property was amazing and we really enjoyed every bit of it. The ranch was awesome in itself and the party barn with the shooting range was the cherry on top! Unfortunately we were unable to do the safari tour due to not having enough time since we did go to the Frío River, however Raina was nice enough to give us a small little tour at the end. I highly recommend this property and plan on renting it again! ##### Alfredo S.
