Everything we needed!
The Howdy Ranch was everything we needed… From the moment we stepped foot on this property til the time we left it was perfect. The pictures and descriptions are true. The fridge and pantry were stocked with everything we needed and more. We enjoyed fishing, canoeing and exposing our pup to the cattle and deer that visited us each afternoon. Looking forward to visiting again soon.

Quick get away
Excellent home base as we explored several towns nearby. Breweries, wineries and shopping were all things we did. It was also nice to sit out by the fire at night as the outdoor space was great for us and our dog. We would definitely stay here again.

Country atmosphere close to town
We stayed 2 nights. We had everything we needed and then some! Fabulous location close to town but feels like a true country get away! The pond has a lighted fountain and benches on the pier with lighting. There is a deer feeder right beyond the pond s d the deer running across the field in the mornings was amazing. We will be booking again! If you are looking for the perfect get away this is the spot!!!

Family NYE Getaway
We loved our family getaway to the Howdy Ranch. We stayed with our son (7), daughter (10) and golden-doodle for 3 days between Christmas and new years and had a blast! We kept ourselves busy taking the Jon boat out on the pond, fishing, looking for wildlife, roasting s’mores on the fire pit, and running into town for a few meals. The house was perfect our family of 4 and was well stocked and clean. TV and internet worked great when we needed the occasional downtime from being outside on the property. The dog shower was super helpful as our pup loved running around the acreage and taking the occasional dip in the pond.

A Peaceful, Restful Haven
Wide open spaces. A pond. Plenty of deer. A beautiful, comfortable home. And all only five minutes from town. This was just the peace and quiet that we were looking for. We left for home feeling rested and relaxed, and are looking forward to coming back.

Great Ranch Visit
We needed a place to stay for a family event in Ledbetter and found this ranch. I was so surprised when we pulled up, it is an awesome place! The house is amazing inside and has everything you could need. Our kids had fun in the boats going around the pond. Location is great - close to everything but when you are out on the ranch it is like nothing is around you. Will be back if we ever need to rent a place while we go to my families property.

Great location
This is our second time to stay at the Howdy Ranch and it was just as nice as the first time. We loved watching the deer grazing in the front pastures.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Howdy Ranch. Very peaceful with beautiful surroundings. We enjoyed fishing in the pond to just hanging out on the front porch swing. We were also able to see deer on the property every day which was neat. The owner was very responsive with any issues or questions! Would highly recommend this rental home to anyone looking for a peaceful secluded getaway!
