No other vacationing groups. No crowded amenities or competing itineraries. Just 178 beautiful acres to discover at your own pace, with the comfort of knowing everyone can enjoy their time here a little differently.
Whether you're bringing the family together, celebrating with friends, planning a relaxing getaway with your favorite people, or gathering for a private retreat, Madrone Springs Ranch gives you the freedom to make the experience your own.
There's something special about having an entire ranch to yourselves.
the private ranch experience
Explore 7.5 miles of trails, spend time along Flat Creek, meet the animals, or slip into a plush robe after an afternoon in the spa.
Madrone Springs Ranch brings together the freedom of an expansive Texas ranch and the comforts of a thoughtfully designed wellness getaway. There's plenty to discover, and absolutely no pressure to do it all.
A little adventure. A little indulgence. Whatever the day calls for.
So much to experience
Follow miles of private trails through the hills, meet our exotic animals, and discover Flat Creek winding through the property. Take a kayak out on the water, enjoy swimming through much of the year, settle in on the new creekside deck and dock, and meet exotic animals around every corner.
Explore the Land and Water
Begin the day with yoga or a workout in the fitness center. Unwind in the hot tub, infrared sauna, or cold plunge, or simply enjoy a quiet moment overlooking the creek. For a little extra pampering, arrange an in-person yoga or meditation session or a relaxing massage during your stay. These personalized services are available upon request for an additional fee.
Rest and Restore
Pour another cup of coffee. Enjoy fresh eggs from the ranch, prepare a favorite meal together, or arrange a special chef-prepared dinner with your hosts. From quiet mornings at Flat Creek Coffee Bar to evenings spent around the table, good food and thoughtful hospitality are part of the experience.
Gather and Savor
Picture waking up to coffee on the porch while the kids head out to see the animals. Some of you spend the morning on the trails or kayaking along the creek. Others find a comfortable place to read or make their way to the yoga studio.
Later, there's time for a massage, an afternoon nap, or a soak in the hot tub. And as the sun begins to set, everyone finds their way back together for dinner.
No rushing from one attraction to the next or trying to keep everyone entertained. Just the pleasure of being here, together.
The best days don't need much of a plan.
Settle into the Ranch House overlooking Flat Creek, with inviting gathering spaces, a well-equipped kitchen, and beautiful views of the surrounding land.
The nearby Mini Cabin offers additional space, while the Hideaway House and two private villas can be added to accommodate larger gatherings.
Whether you're planning a quiet getaway or bringing several generations together, we'll help you find the right arrangement for your stay.
Beautiful places to stay. Plenty of room to feel at home.
