The guest house is a beautiful stone and log home. Located 5 miles north of the Waco city limits and 10 miles from Baylor University and Magnolia Silos, but feels like you're in a state park. Bring your own kayak and launch in the Brazos River. (We do not have a dock to launch from so the bank can be muddy). Bring your fishing gear to fish in the river. House guests get a 15% discount for a guided horseback ride on the ranch. Pet Policy: Only dogs approved by Owner are allowed. Propane BBQ grill provided. The house is accessed by a private road through gated private property. Most cell phones have a strong signal inside the house. No smoking on property. Location Details: Brazos Bluffs Ranch is accessed through the Brazos De Dios Farm where the Homestead Heritage Craft Village is located. Most GPS systems will get you lost. You will receive a google pin 24 hours before check-in. See the photos of the aspen wood ceilings, granite counter tops, American elm wood floors, antler chandelier. Horseback Riding: Brazos Bluffs Stables, LLC offers western horseback rides year-round along the Brazos River on the rim of the overlooking bluff plus miles of other scenic trails on our ranch. As a house renter you get 15% off on your horseback ride! Ask us for the discount code and book on the ranch website. Horses, tack and helmets are provided. No experience is necessary. For your comfort it's best to wear appropriate riding apparel: jeans or riding skirts and closed-toe shoes or riding boots. Most of the horses can carry a maximum of 270 lbs. up the steep hills.
