Vacation Your Way created Tiny Town to provide quick get-a-ways (estimated 1.5 hour drive) from DFW and other big cities around Texas so y’all can enjoy the ranch life at our unique vacation rentals.

If you are traveling with extended family or friends, please contact your host so that we can book your groups nearby each other. It's the perfect way to travel with others, you each have your own private space but your guests are nearby. Tiny homes and cabins are spread apart on our many acres.

Loved the Secluded Vibe! Great Host, We'll Be Back

by Lacey

I absolutely loved this cozy home away from home. All the animals and trees made it feel like it was so secluded and peaceful. The host, Kara, was very sweet and answered all of my questions and was very quick with responding. I will definitely be coming back. Thank you for having us!

We're deeply appreciative of your generous 5 – star review. Our working ranch in Hico, TX, holds a special place in our hearts. The magnificent Oak Trees, charming sheep (Larry, Moe, and Curly), and adorable mini – donkeys all contribute to the unique charm of our property. It's truly a "Vacation Your Way" experience at our ranch!

Kid-approved! Animals, Quiet Stay & Close to Dino Park

by Amanda

We had a short stay but enjoyed every minute. My kiddos loved all the animals, especially how friendly cats were. It was quiet and peaceful with an easy drive to downtown Hico as well as other surrounding small towns. Our main reason for coming was to visir Dinosaur Valley State Park and it was only 30 min drive. Kara was very helpful with all my questions and Jonathan the ranch hand was kind and patient with my kids during a morning animal feeding. Im glad the weather was cooler because there isn't AC (or at least we didnt see it) but it was lovely with the windows open. We only used the toaster but the kitchen was well equipped to make other meals, if you wanted. Hico was such a charming town and we will definitely be back.

We look forward to you coming back for a week – long stay! Glad your get – a – way was fantastic!!

Cozy Getaway with Comfy Beds and Great Amenities!

by Moon

A very charming stay. Both queen beds were very comfortable and cozy. The ladder to the loft is a bit narrow for some people, but perfect if you do t have any issues climbing. All amenities were provided and we loved how the hot water in the shower lasted for several people taking back to back showers. Outside, we enjoyed the fire pit area, where we setup for photographing the night sky instead of lighting a fire. We would surely make s’mores by the fire next time we visit. I spotted some hammocks in the area, I would have loved to try one, but we didn’t have time.

Moon, Thank you for your charming review! We love the night sky too! We are so glad your photos came out beautifully! We look forward too seeing you again soon! Please consider also visiting out Tiny Town at Lake Eastland! A fantastic night sky and calm sweet Lake!

Clean, Cozy, & Kids Loved the Animals - Would Stay Again!

Cute and comfortable! In town for a baseball tournament so we didn’t get to enjoy the surroundings as much as we would have liked to, but we still enjoyed our stay. Very clean and nicely decorated. Beds were comfortable! This place had everything we needed. The kids enjoyed petting and feeding the animals. Would stay here again if in the area.

Tiny House, Great Experience! Kids Loved the Ranch Vibe

by Adriane

The tiny house was, well...tiny but the place was great! The ranch was cute, my kids loved feeding the sheep and long horns.

Anna thank you for your feedback. We are always working to improve the house and the stay for our guests. You are correct that if you had notified me about the pool ladder— I would have sent someone over right away. I also would have sent an emergency cleaning crew to clean again. I hope you return again soon to see these improvements to the home.

It's a fun small town getaway, we hope to visit again soon.
