Description of hotel: Dixie Dude Ranch in San Antonio and surrounding area - TX

For over 75 years, a Texas Hill Country vacation at Dixie Dude Ranch in Bandera, Texas has been a tradition for visitors from all over the world. This guest ranch is the perfect Western getaway to unwind, relax, and simply put the stresses of every day life on hold. You'll enjoy horseback riding, delicious meals, comfortable accommodations and our long tradition of dude ranch hospitality. Nestled in the spectacular Texas Hill Country, Dixie Dude Ranch continues to adhere to its original purpose - a real working ranch where longhorn cattle, Spanish goats, and pigs are raised, where real cowboys work the horses and compete in rodeos, and where the meals are always home-cooked. At Dixie Dude Ranch when we tell a guest, "This is your home on the range," we mean it. Guest rooms, cabins and spacious Ranch Headquarters provide all the modern comforts your family will need to create the vacation of a lifetime. RANCH PACKAGE INCLUSIONS: Lodging, 3 home-cooked meals each day (except Sunday night dinner), 2 horseback rides per day, evening entertainment/campfires (except Sunday night), and all other ranch activities. Aside from food, horseback riding and campfires, the ranch offers an array of outdoor recreational activities including swimming, catch-and-release fishing (gear is provided), nature hiking, fossil/arrowhead hunting, and outdoor yard games like ping-pong, volleyball, basketball, horseshoes and washer pits. NOTE: Most cell phones display "No Service" at the ranch, but there is a guest phone (land line) available any time. WiFi is available in the main lodge, but rural internet is not very fast. If you need to send/receive large files you will need to do so at the Bandera public library located about 15 minutes from the ranch.
