South Texas consists of a variety of fascinating wildlife! We strongly suggest that you view the wildlife from a distance with binoculars provided in the lodge or by taking pictures only.
Approaching wildlife can result in danger or harm to yourself and others.
WATCH YOUR STEP when walking after dark or early in the morning. Snakes, spiders, scorpions, etc, have been seen in the area and precautions should be taken.
Our properties are treated by a professional on a regular basis for pests. Due to our rural area, it is likely you will encounter a pest or wildlife at some point during your stay. The Ranch House is not responsible for any pest or wildlife encounters.

Outdoor grill-

Please be cautious while grilling at the lodge. The grill provided is charcoal. We do not provide charcoal or lighter fluid.
You are responsible for making sure the grill is no longer burning before it is left unattended. South Texas can become very dry; this allows fires to start very quickly from sparks.
