RELICS RESERVE - RANCH HOUSE, one of two luxury homes that comprise what was formerly known as “Relics Ranch”, creatively blends history, nature, and design into every corner of the property. Located in the heart of the Texas Hill Country in Wimberley, TX, our unique and secluded 11-acre retreat is perfect for couples, families, and small groups year-round with local wineries, shops, restaurants, grocery stores, and other vacation comforts a mere walk or brief drive away. The Ranch House features 1 king suite, 2 queen bedrooms, and a comfy sleeper sofa with luxury bedding located in the great room and with 2 full bathrooms. The home boasts an eclectic mix of rustic and modern furnishings originally designed and curated by the previous owners of Relics Ranch, HGTV designer, Bex Hale, and her husband, David Hale. Think Restoration Hardware meets the Texas Hill Country! Relics has been a standout participant in the annual home tour and is an impressive example of Hill Country finery.

OVERVIEW and HISTORY OF THE RANCH HOUSE:

- The “RANCH HOUSE” is a seamless fusion of vintage charm and modern comforts. Surrounded by a 360-degree, wrap-around porch with chairs and porch swings, The Ranch House offers a large master suite with king bed and ensuite shower/tub bath, two queen bedrooms with a shared bathroom with a walk-in stone shower. The sofa pulls out to a comfy queen bed with a plush mattress topper. There is a large, well-equipped kitchen with a beautiful view of the garden that features granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances, cookware, drinkware, utensils, and a massive handmade hardwood table that seats 14 guests.

Our special house features vintage treasures and welcoming art collections to complement the interior walls, anchored by stone and original hardwood floors. The ceilings feature pressed tin molding and 100-year-old beadboard salvaged from a Georgian farmhouse, adding historical character. Creative touches are evident throughout with unique pieces like the coffee table crafted from turn-of-the-century Detroit factory gears and a nostalgic wood-burning stove in the heart of the house.

OVERVIEW OF THE ESTATE GROUNDS:
The grounds encompass a large, well manicured lawn with lush grass, stone walkways, crushed
limestone, and numerous native plant varieties shaded by large, majestic oak trees. The entire space is enclosed with a hand-stacked stone perimeter. The 2 homes, situated 20 yards apart on opposite sides of the pool/hot tub, are connected by a serene oasis surrounded by lush greenery cultivated in the charming greenhouse. The inviting cabana with its tin metal roof, cedar beams, and ample seating options, is home to an outdoor kitchen, making this space an unforgettable poolside feature with its tables and chairs, gas grill, fridge, ice maker and a bar with bar stools. The pool/hot tub overlook a stone water fountain and with views of the garden and beautiful sunsets. The stone patio has a wood-burning fireplace with ample and cozy seating. There are dozens of indoor and outdoor games for kiddos and adults alike. The use of the hot tub is included in your stay. Heating of the pool is subject to an additional fee and must be requested and approved at least 7-days in advance of your stay.

OTHER SPECIAL FEATURES:
Beyond the stone wall perimeter, guests are welcome to visit the barn, paddock, climb and perch from the tree house, explore our grounds with countless opportunities to observe nature and wildlife. A newly added walking trail—just over a mile long—winds through the property, offering a peaceful route for morning strolls, birdwatching, or stretching your legs under the open sky.
RELICS RESERVE is home to our sweet and friendly pets: Mother and Daughter Mini-Donkeys (June Carter and Loretta Lynn) and a 1 Barn Cat (Black Kitty).
