About the host
Hosted by Karen Sloan
Dear Guests,
Welcome to our Texas Hill Country oasis. My husband, John, and I came here a decade ago, seeking solace and renewal after a profound loss. We found the healing and rejuvenation we yearned for, and our return to a rustic lifestyle has been the best move we've made in half a century of marriage.
I retired two years after we purchased the ranch. Living here fulltime led to the decision to share our slice of paradise with travelers wanting to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of city life â or as many of our guests eloquently describe it, to 'unplug, relax, and rewind.'
Together, John and I find immense joy in opening our hearts and home to guests like you, sharing the wonders of our 140-acre exotic game ranch.
Hosting allows me to continue a lifelong pursuit: meeting new people and crafting unforgettable experiences. Nestled amidst sprawling pastures and surrounded by native wildlife, our remodeled Fleetwood Festival, once a humble bunkroom, offers a unique retreat from the everyday.
As an ardent birdwatcher, I've transformed our ranch into a sanctuary for avian visitors, both migratory and permanent residents. Don't forget your binoculars and camera â you never know what feathered friends you might encounter!
Of course, no getaway is complete without indulging in delicious homemade treats. Baking has been a lifelong passion of mine, and nothing brings me more joy than sharing a warm plate of cookies or freshly baked cinnamon rolls as a token of our hospitality.
During your stay, allow us to serve as your personal concierge, offering insider tips on local attractions, scenic hiking trails, and hidden culinary gems. Our mission is not only to ensure your comfort but also to enrich your experience and make sure you leave "ranch happy."
Thank you for choosing Red Bluff Guest Ranch for your escape to the Texas Hill Country. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to host you and help create cherished memories that will last a lifetime.

Why they chose this property
Vrbo asks why I chose this neighborhood. I don't know where to begin:
SOLITUDE -- the gate to my ranch is a mile from the nearest highway
THE RIVER -- the banks of the Colorado River are a half-mile walk on private property. The meadow along the river is also private.
THE BIRDS -- The birds were a wonderful surprise. I had no idea that bordering Edwards Plateau would bring hundreds of species of birds to the ranch each year.
WILDLIFE -- something is always being born: a baby oryx; an axis or blackbuck fawn; every spring, half a dozen fallow young. Looking out my kitchen window to see a blackbuck herd 15 yards away. Spotting majestic axis, elusive white tail, or curious fallows on my ranch walks.
NATURE'S SOOTHING VOICE -- No matter what time of day or night I'm outside, the sounds I hear are almost exclusively nature "talking"--birds chirping, a coyote howling, thunder rumbling, rain pinging off our metal roof.
CONVENIENCE -- Two small towns are 10 miles from my front door. No rush-hour traffic, almost
no stop-and-go driving.

What makes this property unique
Our property offers an impressive package of special features and experiences in a setting where everything is within a few minutes' drive or a leisurely walk. Some of my favorites:
Seclusion. Our ranch entrance is a mile from the nearest highway--no concrete, no road traffic, no other manmade structures in sight.
Natural Beauty: Your lodging is surrounded by pristine wilderness and natural habitat for our wildlife, offering a peaceful escape from the city hustle.
Private Colorado River Frontage: Exclusive access to the Colorado River, perfect for fishing, kayaking, or simply relaxing by the water's edge.
Birdwatcher's Haven: Our wildlife preserve runs along the eastern edge of Edwards Plateau, a major migratory corridor. Stunning and seldom seen birds make their home on the ranch either year-round or seasonally. We provide hand-mixed feed, water, and natural shelter to attract and care for them. The river attracts more reclusive birds as well as hawks, herons, egrets, eagles, and owls.
Exotic Animals: Experience the thrill of observing dozens of exotic game animals roaming freely on our ranch, many less than 20 yards from your fenced back yard.
Local Expertise: As your host, I'm an eager resource for places to see, restaurants to try, and things to do to make your stay unforgettableaw
