Looking for an off-the-beaten track start to a trip to the Davis Mountains and beyond, we started here. We chose this ranch, located ~7mi from downtown Ft. Davis - 5mi of paved road, 2 of good gravel/dirt (n.b. navigable in standard sedan, even in middle of the dark night). Stayed in one of the 5 or 6 lodge rooms, which... More

As a last minute change in plans for a class trip to Big Bend, we quickly and successfully booked the entire ranch to house 24 people for 2 nights. Bo was very friendly and helpful in arranging the reservations on short notice. The Ranch was gorgeous and comfortable. Wesley came by to check on us and see if we needed... More

We travel through Ft. Davis on occasion and this time we wanted to try something different so we booked a room at the Harvard Ranch Suites. It is part of the Harvard Lodge (downtown) but the Ranch Suites on on their working ranch a few miles outside of town, near the State Park and near Prude Ranch. We enjoyed our... More

I would like to begin by saying this is a great property and a lovely place to stay. My husband and I went with our two teenage boys for a long weekend get away and to visit attractions in the area. The problem is with the person booking the lodge. We were told that the lodge is great for all... More

My husband and I recently stayed at Sproul ranch and loved it. The pictures on the hotel's website simply don't do it justice. Get here early and enjoy the pool area as much as you can. It is also a convenient place to stay if you're going to the McDonald Observatory; which is about a 25 minute drive away. More

We stayed at the Harvard Hotel and The Ranch. We loved them both! Out at the ranch you feel like you are there to relax and really just enjoy God's scenery. Very quiet, beautiful sky that you can see stars for miles. Tony and Kerith Timmons are the most down to earth people you will ever meet. They were so... More

At the end of a 2 1/2 mile rock road, the views of the Davis Mountains are spectacular. In the shadow of the McDonald Observatory, you can see a million stars across the expanse of a blackened sky. It is the last ranch at the end of the private road, far enough from the State Highway leading to the Observatory,... More

We enjoy the room suites, the barbecue facilities, the hot tub, and the trap and skeet range. Last year we also went 4 wheeling arranged by the... More
