My family stayed in the light house. The hosts were wonderful and easy to communicate with. We made some wonderful memories in the light house and enjoyed the amenities of the property and gorgeous views of hill country.

Absolutely amazing! Spotless house, incredible pool, quiet & secluded location. Best Hill Country views around. It just doesn't get any better than this. A wonderful place to celebrate with friends.

This is much more than an ordinary hotel stay. Arc de Texas is the ultimate Texas hill country experience. It lies on a 2000 acre ranch. You have access to a private pool. You can walk or ride trails all over the ranch. We hiked about a mile and a half to a private swimming hole that had a waterfall and hot tub only available to guests. If you are ready for something extra special, you might want to check this place out. We had a group of 10 and felt we had the entire ranch to ourselves. The owners have a world class property and want to share it with their guests. The cost is more than reasonable for this type of arrangement. Our group had dinner one night at Bryans on 290 in Johnson City, which is excellent. We went to a pig roast and domino tournament at Siboney Winery just 4 miles west of Johnson City. We also went to an Argentinian Quincho outdoor dining experience at Revel in Fredericksburg. All of these places added to an incredible experience that started at the Arc.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 Stars – A Truly Unforgettable Getaway!

I can’t say enough good things about my stay at Lighthouse Hill Ranch! From the moment I arrived, it felt like stepping into a hidden gem in the Texas Hill Country.

The views were absolutely breathtaking—rolling hills, endless skies, and sunsets that looked like something out of a painting. The pool was perfect for relaxing and taking it all in. Whether I was floating with a drink in hand or just soaking in the peace, it was exactly the kind of recharge I needed.

What really set the experience apart was the hospitality. Everything was so thoughtfully done—from the communication before arrival to the little details throughout the property. You can tell the team behind Lighthouse Hill Ranch genuinely cares about making your stay memorable.

Whether you’re looking for a romantic weekend, a family getaway, or just time to disconnect and reset, I can’t recommend this place enough. I’ll absolutely be back—and next time, I’m bringing friends.

We stayed in the Lighthouse for a weekend for my birthday celebration. This place has great potential. The outdoor space was where we spent most of our time. The views were beautiful. The pool was great. My kids and my friends all loved the pool slide. Now the reason I am giving this 2 stars… The lighthouse had several broken windows. All boarded up. You’d think they’d fix broken windows. They charge a pretty penny for a cleaning fee and will charge you more at the end of your stay if you don’t do 8 listed tasks before you go. This isn’t something that bothers me at all, however, the house was pretty filthy when we arrived. There was even throw up or something in one of the bathrooms. The bedding smelled really bad. We wished we would’ve brought our own because it didn’t seem like the bedding is ever washed. I did email the owners or management or whoever deals with the property and never received response.

I’ve been wanting to come here since I found out it’s dirtbike friendly. My friends and I finally made it and so glad we did. We rented 3 different cabins. All were private with great views and fully stocked with everything needed for a weekend away. We could get to one another’s cabin by car or dirtbike - They aren’t walkable to one another. There were a few scorpions that got in (it’s the country!) It was dog friendly as well. The trails are everything from easy gravel roads to technical rock ledges. We rode about 30 miles total between a few days and still didn’t hit everything. The pool was perfect at night with a great view of the land and a beautiful sunset. Hot tub warmed up very fast too. There was no one else staying there so it felt like we had it to ourselves. The creek was even more fun for swimming and cliff jumping; clear water, cool, and had shallow places for hanging out. The roads leading to the houses were rough, glad we had 4WD getting there but had to take them slow pulling trailers. Our friend had an accident, and the owners offered tons of help and checked up on her multiple times which was very sweet of them. Glad we had helmets for everyone. We ended up in full gear riding the trials and it didn’t feel like overkill. All of the kids were trying to stay longer and had a blast! We all can’t wait to return and do it all again. It was genuinely a great experience with so much freedom to explore and ride wherever we wanted. There are so few places in Texas to do that, it felt like we were much farther from home than we really were. It’s definitely worth a weekend out here. I wish more people who rode knew what a gem this land was.

We stayed in the Napoleon suite, and although small, it was perfect for us.
We hiked about 20 miles on the trails, and the whole property was just beautiful.

Stayed at the Lighthouse with a group of friends this past weekend. The property is top notch and the views, for Texas, are incomparable. Our first day we had amazing weather and that night we watched an impressive storm roll in across the hill country. We had a small issue with the spa at the lighthouse but the responsiveness of the owners so appreciated. Lots of lookout locations and trails to explore - we even played (poorly) tennis! We will be back for sure. Cannot wait.

Our second stay in the Brown House and we love this place! Biggest draws for our family: ATV trails, pet friendly, hill country views and water features (creeks, hot tubs). Johnson City is just a few miles down the road for basic groceries and a cute coffee house and restaurant (Pecan Street). Arrive during daylight because it can be tricky to find the entrance to the ranch at night as it’s very dark (but that also makes for great stargazing!). This is our go-to place for hill country adventures.

This was our second stay at Lighthouse Hill Ranch. We stayed out at the Brown House last October and this time in the Arc de Texas/Lafayette Suite. We have brought our side by side both times and enjoyed riding the trails. We also brought our fishing equipment and caught a few fish. The swimming pool is great at the Arc as the creek was a little low for swimming. We love staying here and will be back again.

We've stayed at Lighthouse Hill Ranch 4 times now and every time we enjoy ourselves fully and leave relaxed and rejuvenated. We've stayed at the Green House, Louiseville suite and the Log Cabin twice with a group of friends.
There's a little bit of everything to do on the property so it's not even necessary to ever leave during your stay. There's a pool, hot tub, spring creek and a wine bar at the main property with a rooftop patio to take in all the beautiful views. Each place we stayed was fully stocked, had all kitchen items to cook and stay in as well as a washer and dryer if needed.
Of course it's also close enough to Fredericksburg to go for a visit to Enchanted Rock, do wine tastings, shopping or grab a bite to eat.
We visit the Hill Country often and will definitely be back.
