Description Description
With views as big as Texas itself, this high-end farmhouse in the Hill Country will delight you with its 23 acres of privacy, its exquisite attention to detail, and its surprisingly homey feel amidst upscale luxury.

Casual sophistication abounds in this rustically elegant living room. Plush, neutral furnishings and a breezy vaulted ceiling contrast perfectly with the log-cabin-style walls, wood beams, and cowboy decor to create an unforgettable setting. A stone hearth fireplace takes center stage, while a Smart TV offers a modern edge to your evenings.

When you reflect back on your time at Merritt’s Ridge, you’ll remember this space as the perfect communal setting, exchanging stories and laughs, and creating new memories while relaxing together, sipping on favorite beverages, and nibbling on charcuterie boards. The armchairs in front of the window make for a lovely spot to curl up and read a few pages in a book or catch up on your social feeds.

While the living space is a well-rounded blend of old and new, the kitchen is a decidedly upscale luxury. The family chef can look forward to stainless steel appliances, granite counters, a farmhouse sink, a tile backsplash, and a gorgeous brick vent hood. The neutral tones mix beautifully with the rich cream cabinets. A spacious peninsula bar seats 4 and offers the perfect opportunity to keep the chef company as he or she works their magic!

With the adjacent farmhouse dining table, you’ll want to bring back the tradition of family dinner. Overlooking the expansive property through two oversized windows, savor a delicious meal and the company of your friends and family.

Three spacious sanctuaries await guests at Merritt’s Ridge, each with a king-size bed and ensuite bath.

The first offers a lovely iron bed, with dual nightstands and lamps, perfect for late-night readers. A colorful area rug and ornate armoire add an air of old-world elegance. The ensuite bath offers a single vanity and walk-in rain-head shower.

The second primary suite is spacious, with unique lines and old west decor. Other features include dual nightstands and lamps, and a leather reading chair with its own standing lamp. Ideal for a few minutes of privacy with your novel, mobile device, or simply your thoughts. The ensuite bath has double vanities and a tiled walk-in rain-head shower in a cozy dormer setting.

The last of the 3 bedroom suites also offer dual nightstands and lamps, as well as a separate reading chair and lamp. A stunning, intricate cabinet sits against the wood cabin wall, creating an interesting juxtaposition of old and new. The ensuite bath offers a single vanity and a tiled walk-in rain-head shower.

With an impressively large open deck, you’ll be tempted to simply set yourself up for the day and enjoy the quiet and peaceful surroundings. It’s easy to lose track of time sitting on the comfortable sofa, soaking up the sun and overlooking nature.

A separate covered deck will quickly become your go-to spot for morning coffee, with rocking chairs and thoughtful ceiling fans. Take advantage of the grill to make your very own Texas barbecue and enjoy an alfresco meal out on the deck.

When evening rolls around, take advantage of the hot tub to enjoy a star full of skies, with your favorite beverage and some of your favorite people.

Be sure to take advantage of everything offered at this most special of Hill Country properties. Your memories will last a lifetime.

House and property were amazing! The only complaint (it’s a very small one) was the hot tub is not where the pictures show. It is tucked into a corner by the house. This did not affect our trip though. It was perfect for a girls weekend with beautiful view off the back porch!

Thank you, Lianna! I'm thrilled to hear you enjoyed your stay and had a wonderful girls' weekend. I appreciate your feedback about the hot tub and will keep it in mind for future improvements. We look forward to welcoming you back soon!

Our stay was very relaxing. The house was everything that is stated in the description. It was perfect for our family gathering. With three couples and three equal size bedrooms it was ideal. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you need. The surroundings are quiet. There is another house next-door on the property. We enjoyed the large dinner table and the large counter counter space with barstools for morning, gatherings over coffee. We were able to have clear weather one night for stargazing. It is an excellent property with very good quality furnishings and we needed for nothing. I think we would’ve stayed for a week if our time had been available. Our compliments to the owner.

Overall a wonderful experience. A slight hiccup in the beginning. One bedroom and bath was overlooked by the cleaners. They took care of it promptly. The house and property are beautiful. My wife and 3 teens loved the house and hot tub! We made great Thanksgiving memories. Would love to return!

What a wonderful place - clean and comfortable with a fantastic back porch. The view is wonderful and it is peaceful and quiet. There was another couple renting the smaller house nearby and we never heard them. The rooms are all beautifully decorated and large. The kitchen is large and clean and we had everything we needed to cook a few meals. Our only complaint are the VERY bright lights on the oak trees in the backyard. They turn on at dusk and stay on for four hours totally killing the dark sky. I can see how they could be nice in certain entertaining situations but we were looking forward to enjoying the dark hill country sky. I reached out for our host to ask if there was a way to turn them off during our stay. I received a reply that they would look into it but I never got an answer so I located the switch and turned them off for the final two nights. We enjoyed stunning views of the Milky Way and a few meteors as well - would stay here again

This weekend staying at this beautiful Airbnb was so magical and peaceful! It was such an amazing way to unwind with my husband and friends of ours. I enjoyed watching the deer and the sunrise! It is super close to the old tunnel park and 29 mins from town! An ideal stay with gorgeous views!! 🩵
Anonymous - Posted: 9/30/2025
Mariana, those sunrise deer sightings are exactly what the Hill Country is all about, and it sounds like you and your husband and friends soaked up every bit of it. The views from the property have a way of slowing everything down, and we love hearing that it did that for your group. Enchanted Rock is gorgeous this time of year if you make it back out this way, and the house will be ready for you whenever you are ready for another slow morning watching the wildlife wake up!

This was the most perfect get-a-way for our family. It was a reasonable drive into town, but we honestly couldn’t wait to get back to the ranch each day to enjoy the serenity of the property. Deer were around each day, especially at feeding time, the outdoor areas were perfect, and the decor was exquisite. We will definitely book again.

This was a wonderful place for 3 couples, and we spent our evenings back at the house rather than in or around town because of the view, the beautiful outside areas and inside. Loved it and was perfect for us to celebrate my birthday and retirement from.

Loved our get away!! The pictures online did not quite summarize how well decorated and how many special details the owner included! Everything is included (water fountain on the front porch for a nice touch enjoying coffee or wine, plus some games, books, even a telescope for star gazing, on the back porch!). Can’t wait to visit again and possibly rent both cabins on the property. You won’t be disappointed!

We were so spoiled in this beautiful house set in the woods. I loved hearing a rooster in the distance, seeing deer in the backyard, and the view was amazing. We loved the hot tub, so easy to open.
Misty L. - Posted: 11/25/2022
Misty, deer in the backyard and a rooster calling through the trees is about as Hill Country as it gets, and it sounds like the house gave you all of it. So glad the hot tub was easy to get into and that the setting did what it's supposed to do. Next time you're out this way, catch that view at sunrise from the back, it's something else entirely. Hope we see you back in the woods soon!
