"CELEBRATING 25 YEARS OF BLISS
Discover Our Texas Guest Ranch Amenities & Activities:
Join us in celebrating 25 years at BlissWood Bed and Breakfast Ranch! Our pet-friendly accommodations have been that way since our founding and our dedication to caring for animals has carried on throughout the years and influenced everything we do. Not just 25 years of BlissWood, but 25 years of rescuing and rehabilitating animals on the ranch. We hope you will join us for this special occasion and get the chance to see some of the beautiful wildlife that we have on-property.
In 2010 Carol, the owner and innkeeper, began fostering Border Collies, a contribution that has now become a dedicated passion with over 400 foster dogs passing through the Ranch on the way to their forever homes. Some of our adorable Border Collies stayed with us and live full lives on the ranch with tons of room to play and run around. You can also make a donation if you wish to support the Border Collie rescue directly."

Why they chose this property

"Though our Border Collies are truly delightful company, we also have a large variety of other animals at our Texas dude ranch for our guests to meet! The Exotic Animal Safari is a 45-minute guided expedition through our exotic pasture and is a great way to catch a glimpse of Red Deer, Blackbuck Antelope, and more! Another great way to get up close and personal with the wildlife is with a morning ranch feeding tour as a part of our Family Fun Package. Give the animals a nice breakfast and interact with a wide variety of unique creatures from all across the globe!

Vacation with Your Own Furry Friend:
We always encourage our guests to not only enjoy the animals here at the ranch but to also bring along their own faithful companion! To this end, we also offer pet-friendly weddings so that your pet can accompany you on such an important occasion! There are lots of things to do with your dog here at BlissWood - go on a walk and explore the property, play fetch in wide-open spaces, and much more! You can enjoy so much of what BlissWood Bed and Breakfast Ranch has to offer with your dog in tow, and we hope that you will enjoy your time here with the rest of our unique activities.

Take a relaxing staycation in Cat Spring, Texas away from the hustle and bustle of the big city. Not far from Houston is the perfect destination for a fun kid-friendly vacation in Texas at BlissWood Bed and Breakfast Ranch. With safe activities for all ages and a family-friendly atmosphere, you can plan a getaway close to home that will satisfy everyone on your guest list!"

What makes this property unique

"On our 350 acres, you'll find a variety of domestic and wild animals, a beautiful lake for non-motorized boating and fishing, miles of trails for hiking, biking, and horseback riding, and plenty of fun Texas dude ranch activities.
Enjoy Family-Friendly Activities:
We have a wide variety of activities and fun for the whole family here at BlissWood Bed and Breakfast Ranch, so explore to your heart's content and get everyone involved for a memorable stay! As a working ranch, you can take a horseback ride, explore, and see the wide variety of both farm and exotic animals on the property like American Bison, Black Buck Antelope, Emu, and more! Get up close and personal with some of these beautiful creatures and feed them on our Exotic Animal Safari, a unique experience you won't want to miss!

There are plenty of trails and walking paths for outdoor explorers, hikers, and bike-riders alike with 350 acres of gorgeous natural scenery. No matter which type of Texas ranch vacation you're looking for, we can curate an itinerary that will keep you entertained. Escape with your family, your partner, or your crew to enjoy some time away from it all at our ideal socially distant destination.
