The house is fully stocked with kitchen supplies, linens and paper products and soap. The house is set up for a couple or a small family of no more than 4 people. We ask that no more than 3 adults stay given space and septic constraints. I provide guests with all of details needed for check in along with a list of items provided at the house. Guests are not required to meet with anyone upon arrival, but rather will be given access codes to let themselves into the house. I am available by phone, text or email before and during your stay to help with any questions or issues that may arise. We are 5 minutes away from the Wimberley square with all of the local shops, restaurants and the grocery stores. So, while you feel that you're out in the country the conveniences of Wimberley are very close. Guests have full access to the house and our 40 acres and 600+ feet of Blanco Riverfront. You can feel free to explore the land to hike, bird watch or look for other wildlife. Gaze at a gorgeous sunset or sunrise on the river or from the picnic table on the bluff above. Grab your rod and discover what Flyfishing magazine called 'one of the best fly fishing spots in Texas, on the Blanco River.' Take a swim in the clear blue waters of the Blanco River. Enjoy a picnic or a nap or a book along its banks. Dine in the covered porch watching the deer graze and maybe see the rare violet-ear hummingbirds that have been known to visit. Get cozy on the couch to watch a movie or just listen to music on the Sonos speakers. You will find a wonderful, large outdoor hot tub right off the covered porch. It is a private place to unwind while admiring the brilliant stars above and the quiet solitude of Shade Ranch. Little House on the Blanco @ Shade Ranch has so much to offer with its 40 peaceful acres, private river access, a fully equipped kitchen, open dining areas inside or on the covered porch (with Weber propane grill), and a large bedroom with a queen size comfortable bed. The house is intended for couples or a small family with young children. We ask that there be no more than 3 adults given space and septic constraints. There is also a great outdoor stone fire pit with stone benches, perfect for roasting marshmallows or warming up on a cool Hill Country evening. Located only 5 minutes from Wimberley Square, this home completes the perfect hill-country getaway without sacrificing any of the charm (or shopping opportunities) that Wimberley has to offer. And with high-speed/wireless Internet and satellite TV, you won't sacrifice the conveniences of modern technology, either. There is also a larger 3 bedroom house on the same property. The houses are completely separate and don't share anything other than the acreage. The houses sit approximately 100 yards apart and have a bank of cedar trees and a large cedar privacy fence that sit between the houses and create separate areas for privacy. You'll need a car to get to and from the property. You can walk to town, but it will take you approximately 20 minutes. Shade Ranch consists of 40 private acres and 600+ feet of Blanco riverfront land. There are two houses on the property that we make available, the Little House and Casa Grande. Casa Grande is a 3 bedroom/2 bathroom home of 2800 square feet. The two houses are completely separate and don't share anything other than the land. They each have their own hot tubs, patios, grills and fire pits. The houses sit approximately 100 yards apart and are separated by a bank of cedar trees and a cedar privacy fence. Given the property sits on a bluff there is one pathway down to the river. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation -

It was a great spot and I absolutely recommend. ##### Allison W. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Samantha G. Oct 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy This property is absolutely beautiful! We had a perfect anniversary weekend. The river was very close (short walk) and we thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub, fire pit, BBQ grill, and horseshoes. It's also very close to "town" with lots of restaurants. There's a BBQ restaurant even closer that had live music and an outdoor area - We loved it! We would definitely stay here again - It was the perfect slice of paradise. Note: The path to the river runs right next to the larger house on this property, and the river access is shared with any guests staying at that property as well. We didn't run into anyone during our stay but just FYI as I had this question before we booked and didn't see it in earlier reviews. Thanks for making our weekend memorable! ##### Samantha G.

Their was another group in the other house celebrating a bachelor party, but they thankfully did not make too much noise. Both houses have access to the Blanco River which was such a peaceful place to sit by. Definitely will consider coming to this property again for a peaceful getaway that is less than 10 minutes from Wimberly! ##### Brenton S.

Communication with Roby couldn’t be better. Thank you again for the wonderful getaway! ##### Steve E. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tori C. Jun 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Shade Ranch First time stayers, and we will be back! The house was very clean, well stocked, so much to do on property; fire pit, hot tub, horseshoes. Our young kids loved the river, shallow and deep spots for all to enjoy. Very close to town to shop, eat, explore. Can’t recommend the “little” house enough!! ##### Tori C. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Steve E. Mar 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Another great stay in Paradise This was one of several trips we have made to Little Shade Ranch and we loved every minute of it. The home is well-stocked with all the amenities one might need, and the queen bed we slept in is so comfy! Beautiful and bucolic surroundings make this the perfect place for us. A+ ##### Steve E.
