Refugio Mighty Oaks · Casa de 1904 en 352 acres

Mighty Oaks Retreat is in the open country near D'Hanis, a short drive from Hondo. The property covers 352 acres with a seasonal pond, and miles of quiet country roads run through the surrounding land, good for a drive or a motorcycle ride.



The house was built in 1904 and has been restored with care. The living room has a couch, two chairs, a wood-burning fireplace and a Roku TV, and a small alcove off it works as a reading nook or a place for kids to play. The kitchen is built around a wood-topped island with stools, with an oven, a range, a microwave, a toaster and both regular and K-cup coffee makers. There are two bedrooms, one of them detached, plus a sunroom with a queen pull-out couch, a small dining table and its own mini-split. Both bathrooms have vintage tubs, and the main bath has a shower as well. Central air and heat, ceiling fans, satellite TV, Wi-Fi, good cell coverage and a washer and dryer are all here.



Behind the house, country rockers sit under the trees. A shaded veranda has a conversation pit for a larger group, and there is a hot tub, a charcoal grill and a fire pit. The acreage is open for hiking, bird and wildlife watching, and stargazing.



Early check-in may be available on request. Every stay includes the Texas Hill Country Travel App, a local guide for exploring the area.



WHY WE LIKE IT

When guests ask what we like about Mighty Oaks, we start with the land. The house was built in 1904 and sits on 352 acres with a seasonal pond, open for walking, birding and stargazing. Miles of country roads surround the property, which suits people who came to drive or ride. And the second bedroom is detached, so two couples each get some privacy.
