The place was beautiful with lots of things to do! Our family had a wonderful time! The owner was very accommodating and easy to communicate with when needed.
We stay here once every year for a family gathering. It's great for a large party. The kitchen can handle a lot of traffic, and the living area is huge. The whole family looks forward to this trip every year.
We love staying here. It's so relaxing and a great place for our family to get away from the busy city life & all spend time together. Laurel is an amazing host & always so quick/helpful when something is needed. We look forward to continuing our annual family trip/stay at Baines Creek. You won't be disappointed....it's an incredible experience every time we go.
Our stay at Baines Creek Ranch in Groesbeck was simply delightful, as always. The blend of thrilling 4-wheeler adventures and serene moments amidst lush green pastures by tranquil waters was a perfect retreat for my family. We cherish these opportunities to escape the hustle and bustle and immerse ourselves in relaxation. Also the fish were biting exceptionally well for this visit!
This was our second stay @Baines Creek, our family loves it here. The owners and staff are great, and seem to have thought of everything.
Be sure to book as long as you can, you won't want to leave when its time. I promise!
The ranch is amazing and peaceful. We had our extended family meet up here and there was something for everyone. Several would exercise by running the several mile trails. Others would fish. Others would walk and checkout the wildlife. I sat on the porch for hours watching the sunrise and set.
My family loves coming to this ranch. Itâs gorgeous inside and out. The new renovations are beautiful. We love sunrise coffee in the porch looking at the pond. Thereâs always a nice breeze. The exotic animals are so interesting. We all get the best sleep of our lives out there and have a ton of fun. The workers on the ranch are very helpful and kind if need be but alas allow is to feel like we are the only ones there.
Rained hard the first night and lost electricity for a few hours, not ideal way to start a guys getaway. However everyone huddled around fireplace and told some stories.
House was exactly as described, lots of room to spread out and relax and great time fishing, playing pool, and shuffle board. Will definitely recommend to friends and family.
We love staying here. Laurel is always a great host & the property is phenomenal. Weâll be back again to enjoy the place & get out of town for a long weekend.
The property is absolutely beautiful and the house was everything we hoped for. We came with 3 young kids (and a baby) and the kids had a blast in the "Narnia" room and on the pond. 10/10 would recommend.
It's impossible not to love Baines Creek Ranch! Such a refreshing get-away from the noise of towns and cities. There's lots to do, including just sitting and visiting on the porch. The exotic animals lend a safari-type experience that is enchanting for adults and kids alike. Definitely on our "favorite places" list!
Second time here. The ranch is amazing and the perfect place to hang out with family. Lots of peace and quiet. The secret room to the secret room was a hit with the grandkids. Might have to make this an annual tradition.
Baines Creek Ranch is the place to go, whether you have a big group, big family, or just to get the ladies together or have a guys weekend! We have been out a couple of times, with mix families and for guys/gal weekends. This group was comprised of kids ages 3-17, and a mix of families. Everyone is ranting about the time they had, all ages of kids had their own unique experience and take on how fun the weekend was. From Big Buck Hunter, Pacman and Galaga, to riding four wheelers through the trails, then upstairs to rest for the afternoon watching movies and resting in the Narnia room. Kids are blown away by the Narnia room and secret room above it, even the 12-14 year olds!
We cannot recommend this house enough, great hosts and relaxing getaway for a group, a great spot to unwind!
We had such a great time with family! The property is beautiful! The host was fantastic!! Thank you for allowing us to stay at your place! We hope to be back again sometime!
My family and I had a great time here. Beautiful home and property. The hosts were great, amenities awesome. My family and I totally unplugged and just enjoyed one another. There are no clocks anywhere and I didn't notice til it was time to leave, that kinda tells you all you need to know.
I wish there was another star to give
We had a great time! Communication with the owner was very easy and concerns addressed quickly. Also Randy Franklin, the ranch manager, was very helpful and greatly appreciated.
Our only concern was cleanliness of some counter tops and floors. We could easily take care of that concern but thought you would want to know.
Thanks again for everything!
This was a perfect weekend getaway! Great place to unplug from everything. Everyone had a great time doing their own thing. There was definitely plenty of different things for everyone.
We always love staying here. Family loves fishing, roasting marshmallows, riding the trails on the 4 wheelers and enjoying the unplugged time away from the business of the city. Canât wait to come back soon!
This piece of property has been in the family since it was an original Texas Land Grant in the middle of the 1800s. It is a favorite place to go with our 3 kids to get away from it all and relax. Our family and friends never want to leave! We know you'll love escaping to Baines Creek Ranch.
This is a perfect rendezvous between Austin, Houston, and Dallas and a great escape to the country side. You'll have the whole 7 acre lake to yourself. Put a fire in the fire pit or sit next to the fireplace under the 2000 sq ft covered patio. The stars are unbelievable. A lot of people base here and go to the BSR Cable water park which is only 20 minutes away. https://www.bsrcablepark.com. Acclaimed Magnolia Market at the Silos is just a 45 minute drive into Waco.
Does the other property you are looking at have a secret Narnia room that you can only get into through the Wardrobe? No? I didn't think so! Seriously, the kids and adults will fall in love with this place. You'll make life long memories on the 350 acres at Baines Creek Ranch! Small events are allowed however additional fees may be applied. Please let us know at the time of booking what kind of event you are thinking of and we'll be happy to help you.
