Other Things to Note:
This property is an apartment rental adjacent to the Main House rental. You will have 1 shared wall and bedrooms above the apartment unit.

While travel time is less than 2 minutes on The Rock Road, for a smoother arrival, we recommend entering The Rock Road across from the entrance of Black Rock State Park. This route not only shortens the travel time on the rough road but also ensures a more comfortable transition into the secluded charm that awaits you. The Rock Road forms a loop. Please be warned, and drive 10mph or slower through the uneven road, bumps, and dimly lit entrance road. Our staff is able to access the property just fine in a small sedan if you know how to drive on unpaved roads.

Blue Bonnet Festival Weekend

This property was a cozy space that was a good location to stay in for our weekend at the Burnet Blue Bonnet Festival. It was a 1 room combo living/dining/bedroom area with plenty of room to spread out for 2 people. We enjoyed the great views around the property and would stay here again. Might be a little cramped for 4.

We will be coming back

Everything was as perfect as it seemed online. Chuck is the most thoughtful, gracious host. The apartment is perfect! Kitchen is compact and contains everything one needs. The bed is VERY comfortable and location is quiet and cozy. Great location with easy access to the beach, boat launch and hiking trails. Just a short trip but when we return this is where we will be staying again.

Peaceful Couples Retreat

My wife and I visited Lake Buchanan and were blown away by this place. The apartment was quiet, peaceful, and a great escape from the city. The location is perfect for hiking, accessing the nearby beach, and fishing. We enjoyed seeing Marble Falls and Llano which were a short drive from the apartment. Our time in Lake Buchanan was so relaxing and we can’t wait to return!

Great spot!

We came in to explore the hill country! We were able to rent kayaks across the street for some nice water time. This is an awesome little apartment off a nice 3 acre home. It was quiet and peaceful even with guests renting next door. Parking was easy with the reserved spot for the Ranchette Apartment. We even were able to charge our Tesla with their level 2 charger. Will definitely be coming back soon! Apartment was really nice - we could have spent more time there. Well designed.
