Ol' Army Ranch Guesthouse is located on 235 secluded acres in Burleson County, Texas. The house is a rustic timber framed barn style home situated on the shore of a 3 acre lake so the views are fantastic. The ranch is a whitetail and exotic ranch so there is abundant wildlife for your viewing pleasure as well. We can also arrange sporting clay shooting and trophy hunting if you are interested in those activities. We are located approximately twenty minutes from Kyle Field so it makes for an ideal gameday rental for the family. OAR Guesthouse has three bedrooms, full bath upstairs and half bath downstairs. There is a full kitchen, living area, dining area, washer/dryer and large back deck overlooking the lake. The lake is stocked with bass, perch and catfish so if you enjoy fishing you will love the back deck. We also have a 1750 sq ft pavillion available for events.

We really enjoyed our stay here... look forward to staying again.
The nature was tranquil, the frogs and crickets at night serenaded us.

Charming Guesthouse with Fabulous Fishing Pond
Great property for a family of four that loves to fish. Kitchen and grill were well set up. We appreciated the quality knives. Beds were also quite comfortable.
