—————————————————————

Mountain View Lodge lies on the western edge of the scenic Texas Hill Country, offering spectacular views and sunsets--great for gatherings large or small. This modern, 2-story (2,400 sq ft) lodge is along crystal-clear, spring-fed Pulliam creek (Middle Prong of the Nueces River), which is ideal for swimming, tubing, and snorkeling. A 5-ft-deep swimming hole is at the lodge. Nearby is a large natural spring.

The Lodge sits high above the creek with a lovely, panoramic mountain view. The area is Nueces Canyon, home to many species of birds and other wildlife. The Lodge is located 6 miles north of Camp Wood and 28 miles west of Leakey, near Barksdale, on a 23-acre ranch.

No other place can match the breath-taking view, serenity and seclusion of the Lodge. Hike up and down the river for miles. Hike the 23 acre pasture and county roads. There's a very friendly donkey in the pasture who will love you forever if you give him a salty snack! Other goats & sheep are by his side.

*****
For a video walking the trail down to the river where swimming hole is, go to YouTube and search for "Mountain View Lodge Trail to River". The trail is easy to navigate.

Accommodations: Upstairs (main living area) has 2 bedrooms with king-sized beds sleeping 4 people. Downstairs are recreational accommodations and beds for 8 people. Additionally, there are 3 very comfortable foam pads, pillows & bedding for 3 more. Total of 12 people on beds; 15 when including foam pads. (SEE CAPTIONS UNDER PICTURES FOR BED ARRANGEMENTS.)

About 200 ft in front of the house is a fire pit dug into the ground, lined with rocks. There's a water hose nearby for safety. Scavenge the 23 acres for plenty of firewood. Roasting forks are there, too, by the BBQ pit on the downstairs porch.

TELECOMMUTE FROM THE RANCH! Super-fast, fiber-optic internet, 100 Mbps, BOTH download & upload!! Also, MESH WiFi for no dead-spots, one which broadcasts from multiple locations at both 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz.. Do your Zoom business and school meetings wirelessly. Or wired (bring your ethernet cable).

A 55-inch Roku TV is downstairs and a 50-inch Roku TV is upstairs, above fireplaces. For both TVs, Roku voice remotes are used to select content from internet streaming services, or air-cast from your personal device. Select from a vast array of free services or from your own subscription service. Use your voice when selecting a streaming service (Roku remotes provide this technology). Simple instructions are provided: for example, say “launch Netflix”, or "find kid TV shows," or "find all Clint Eastwood movies," or "find It's a Wonderful Life movie." You’ll be amazed! The Lodge is a blend of high-tech and amazing outdoors!

There are large living areas upstairs and downstairs with a southwestern decor. The main living area is upstairs, which includes a large kitchen/dining area, a living room, and two bedrooms. Downstairs is an entertainment area and 2 more bedrooms. A door separates the two lower bedrooms for privacy. (All four bedrooms have doors for privacy.) Each level has a fireplace and a full bath.

Large decks on both levels provide majestic hill country views and a comfortable setting for relaxation. (See pictures for outdoor chairs and tables for each.) The fully equipped kitchen includes a microwave and a dishwasher. The downstairs deck includes a barbecue grill for outdoor cooking. Also downstairs are a washer and dryer.

There are 4 entrances to the house so people can go in and out without disturbing others. Two entrances are upstairs via two large staircases on two opposite sides of the house. Then, 2 entrances downstairs; one main entrance and another on the opposite side of the house via the downstairs porch where the BBQ pit is located.

Weather conditions: It is not just summertime that's great in the Hill Country. Fall, spring, and even winter are some of the most wonderful weather days. The water source for the Lodge is from a well tapped into the nearby spring aquifer--an extra treat. It's processed through a water softener just to remove the hardness and is really great quality water--classic Hill Country.

Pets ages 1 year or over are welcome.

Soooo relaxing

This lodge is tucked away at the end of a long road and is so nice. It’s very quiet and relaxing. We love sitting out on the decks and watching the many types of birds. The river is just down the hill and it is beautiful.

Best place Ever

I can’t say enough amazing things about this rental property! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that the owners truly care about their guests and have put so much thought into every detail. They’ve anticipated every need we might have during our stay, and I was blown away by how everything was perfectly labeled—right when I had a question, there was the answer, ready to go! The variety of river shoes was fantastic, and the owner was super responsive, making our experience even more enjoyable. For families, this place is a dream come true! With baby gates, high chairs, pack n play, and adorable kid plates and cups, they’ve got everything covered for little ones. And the location? Absolutely unbeatable! The river is breathtakingly beautiful—crystal clear waters where little kids can splash around safely, and deeper areas for the brave to dive into. Every moment spent here felt like pure joy! Watching the birds while we ate, thanks to the bird feed they provided, was such a delightful bonus for the kids. If you’re looking for the perfect family getaway, look no further! This place is an absolute gem, and I can’t recommend it enough!

Incredible as Always

This was our 4th time staying at the Mountain View Lodge. Each time our family has grown more and more!!! We have loved making family memories over the past 10 years here! The house is immaculate and homey. The view is 1 in a million from TV e house. And my personal favorite is the view from the swimming hole looking toward the hills in the distance. (I took some pictures this time to print out and display in my home to remember one of my favorite views in the world!) My entire family (12 of us!) ranging from 1 year old to almost 60- all enjoyed cooking on the barbeque pit, swimming, snorkeling and sunbathing in the swimming hole for about 10 hours a day! And hiking down the river for even more exploration. The home itself has everything you could possible need. We cooked and ate all our meals there and were completely set at all times. All the cousins walked to feed the goats every evening and had the time of their lives. My father in law and I enjoyed providing birdseed for the birds and birdwatching with our coffee each morning We hope to continue visiting this house for years to come.

We drove in and never started our cars until our departure 3 days later! Headed down to the incredible clear waters of the river EVERYDAY! Just a simple, majestic, getaway to unwind. The owners really do an outstanding job of equipping the house with necessities. This trip was a blessing, full of great memories, and we look forward to coming back!

Family Retreat

Lodge is very well maintained, clean, and comfortable. Furnishings are well done and furniture is comfortable (chairs/sofas/beds). Everything you may need or think you need is available to you at lodge. Just bring your food and refreshments and the lodge provides nearly everything else you may need. Beautiful views, wonderful spring to swim in, and owner is very helpful and attentive with any questions or concerns you may have. Would stay again...will stay again..and you should too...
