About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Hi-way Ranch Lockhart

40 acres conveniently located just 4 miles north of Lockhart Texas and only 25mins south of Austin. This farmhouse has the best layout and spacious dock on a small pond. Get the country feeling while staying 5 mins from the BBQ Capitol of Texas. This home has a dock, it is possible to fall into the water, please be aware before booking. No infants please. Great for sunsets, bbqing, and coffee on the porch. Please note, this my family getaway home, it is not a party house.

The space

Guest are welcome to all of our 34 acres, with access to 22 acres of heavy woods, when arranged. We ask that you do not use motorized vehicles or toys off the gravel road. It is great for fishing with BARBLESS hooks. Fully stocked with bass, perch, and catfish.

Great house and host
My family of six stayed here for two nights for a wedding nearby. This is a great house for a secluded and quiet stay and the host was very responsive and helpful as needed. Would definitely stay here again if needed.

Daughter's Graduation from TSU
This was the perfect place for us to stay. The large deck out front allowed us to host the family for a cookout after graduation. It was close enough to San Marcos for us to do what we needed to without being in the middle of all the traffic.

Nice get away for our MX camp weekend
What a beautiful property. Fishing, turtles and deer. Everything was provided. We really enjoyed our stay minutes from Spoakes MX and town. We’ll stay here again for next MX camp or just to unplug and enjoy a slower life for a minute.

Girls weekend
We all live close to, or in, Austin. Love to get away for a long weekend! Property was nice but lacking in some ways. Keurig was broken and kitchen supplies were lacking. Most of the coffee cups were chipped and not enough dishes. There was a storage closet in the hallway and supplies were not organized. There were clothes in the closets, the windows were filthy. We had a fun weekend and will definitely use VRBO but would not return to this property. I had found this on the website and took some grief from my fellow travelers.

Excellent property for a great country get away
This home was well appointed, comfortable, great amenities and, yes, we caught and released fish in the pond. Everyone in our party was very happy with the location as it was just an easy drive into Lockhart and the City and State Parks. We look forward to many more vacations here.

Lockhart wedding stay
We were in town for a wedding and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this wonderful home. The hosts were great at communication. The house was clean and stocked with some extras we did not expect, including firewood for the outdoor fire pit. We enjoyed our stay so much and will definitely be back!

Perfect
This was the perfect place for us to stay! There was a lot of space to have alone time, but cozy enough when we wanted to hang out together. The one downside was the traffic noise from the busy toll road, but other than that the house and property were perfect!

A group of friends joined me from across the US to attend an event in Lockhart and this place was perfect! All amenities were satisfactory and we really enjoyed hanging out on the back deck at night. Don’t forget the bug spray.

Geezerfest 2021, Lockhart, Tx
There were three senior couples. We had never rented a place before Trace made it so easy for us to understand. We spotted the house on VRBO website and immediately went for it. We wanted something close to home, quiet, fishing if possible, and clean. Our home checked every box. We had an amazing time and Trace was very attentive and checked to make sure all was going well. Lockhart had some delicious BBQ, and great little shops, but mainly we hung out at the house and fished (and released). I hope we can go again next year. Loved every minute there.

Family vacation with adult children
Great house that we used as a home base while visiting the area breweries, BBQ, outlet mall in San Marcus. Lockhart is a hidden gem of a small town and we enjoyed our stay. Peaceful for the young adults to sleep late while Mom and Dad fished and enjoyed the deck! In the middle of Texas July heat, the mornings and evenings are breezy and pleasant on the deck.

Family get together
Charming home located at the end of a country road nestled in the forest. The large backyard deck overlooks a beautiful pond with an outstanding view. Our family enjoyed the seclusion and reconnecting with nature. We had a blast fishing (catch & release) Bluegill and Large Mouth Bass. The pond also provided great recreation: paddle boarding, swimming, and diving off the deck. Famtastic get-a-way for my husband and I to meet up with our adult children for a family reunion.

This property fit our needs perfectly. We enjoyed the pond to fish and the kids caught about 10 bluegill. It rained but we could still be outside under the covered deck. The privacy and owner communication was great and we will definitely be back!
