Summary: Shade Ranch is a beautiful, peaceful, hidden getaway just a quick drive from Wimberly. The house is Texas charming and the landscaped outdoor spaces are just right for a family to gather around a fire pit or spacious table. The view of the River from the house is fabulous but the walk to the River and time spent on the River was really special. We fished the River and enjoyed the tranquility. The house was perfectly suited for a family group and so clean. We had a perfect little family birthday celebration thanks to this great property!
