About this property

8 Acre Private River Front Sleeps 17-Nomad Ranch

Nomad Ranch is an idyllic 8 acres with over 300 feet of stunning secluded Nueces River frontage. Nomad offers rustic relaxation under the many amazing oaks, breathtaking views, wildlife watching and did we mention the crystal-clear running waters and natural springs of the Nueces! Nomad sleeps 17 with 2 homes, River Rock and Rio Escondido, and has an array of indoor and outdoor amenities including kayaks, hammocks, river chairs, and fire pits. Golf cart rental available.

Nomad Ranch has plenty of space for both fun and relaxation on it's sprawling 8 acres. Relax in the multiple sitting areas inside of the home, the front and back patios, around the fire pits, and of course, on a chair in the middle of the beautiful Nueces River. Explore up and down the river to find your perfect swimming hole and natural spring along the property.

River Rock offers three bedrooms {one loft}, one bath, sleeps 10. Two queens, four twins {two bunks}, one queen sofa bed {room can be closed off for privacy}. River Rock has a full kitchen, dining room, living room and sitting room. Outside the back doors is a expansive patio complete with seating and dining table, perfect for taking in the beautiful Nomad sunsets and watching the wildlife! River Rock is less than a five minute leisurely stroll down the property to the river. There are several three wheeled trikes available and a golf cart (minimal rental fee) available for use during your stay. See "amenities" for a full list of amenities.

Rio Escondido cottage is 640 sq. ft. and offers two private bedrooms plus a sleeping loft, one bath, sleeps 8. Two queens in private rooms, four singles in sleeping loft. Nestled near the largest Oak on the property, Rio Escondido has a full kitchen, living room and a front porch overlooking the river. Just outside the cottage doors is Nomad's rustic open air barn, perfect for relaxing, playing games and dining. Rio Escondido is approximately 250 yards from River Rock.

*Note: Nomad is a rural 8 acre property in the Texas Hill County on the river. There may be animals and insects you are not used to encountering i.e. scorpions, spiders, snakes, bees, mice, wild pigs, deer. You may also see bunnies, kittens, goats and hummingbirds amongst other wild animals. Please keep this in mind when considering travel to the Hill Country and river. Although we do our very best to treat the property for insects, we cannot guarantee you will not encounter these.

Find rustic relaxation on the Nueces River and explore the beautiful Texas Hill Country.  We have included a few popular activities to enjoy in and around Camp Wood below.  We hope you enjoy these attractions as much as we do! 

Nueces River: That's why you're here right? Swimming, fishing, kayaking, canoeing, floating. The beautiful, crystal clear Nueces River is enjoyed by all! Have fun searching for swimming holes and natural springs or simply relaxing with your feet in the water. Nomad offers an abundance of river amenities for you to enjoy during your stay. For a unique swimming experience, take an excursion a few hundred yards down River Road {off of Hwy 55} to take a deep plunge off the bluffs known by the locals as "the swim hole" or "Quince".

Frio Bat Flight Tours: Frio Cave is home to an estimated 10-12 million Mexican Free Tailed Bats.  On scheduled weekends March-September, gusts can watch the bats fly. 

Garner State Park: 1,419.8 acres of recreational facilities in northern Uvalde County. There are 10 water acres along the Frio River.  

Lost Maples State Natural Area: 2,174.2 scenic acres in Bandera and Real Counties, north of Vanderpool on the Sabinal River. 

Scenic Hill County Drive: Explore the beautiful Texas Hill Country and consider The Twisted Sisters 100-mile loop.  "Twisted Sisters" Scenic Drives & Motorcycle Routes: RM-337, RM-335, RM-336. The Sisters travel about 96 mi through massive timbered hills, steep cliffs, secluded valleys and streams. "One of the fifteen most scenic spots in Texas" (Texas Highways, Nov 1998).

Golf: Nestled in the picturesque Sabinal Canyon, Utopia Golf is one of the most beautiful nine-hole golf courses in Texas! Tee times are available, but not required. Go out and play a round or two, return to the simple pleasures of the game, and enjoy the scenic Texas Hill Country views. Utopia Golf is approximately 45 miles from Nomad Ranch.

Frio Valley Ranch Golf Club (Collared Shirt Required ) is a premier Hill Country Golf Club located in Concan, Texas, a scenic 37 mile drive through the Texas Hill Country from Nomad Ranch. The 18-hole Frio Valley Ranch course is a semi-private and measures 7333 yards from the longest tees. The course features 5 sets of tees for different skill levels.

Uvalde Memorial Golf Course is a unique 18-hole course located on a Native American archeological find and is a great place to fit in a round on your trip! Open seven days a week, 7am-7pm. Uvalde Memorial Golf Course is 40 miles from Nomad Ranch.

A place to enjoy
Booked for the fist time and it won’t be my last time, it’s great location to relax and have fun I highly recommend it we floated the river all the way down to the damn it wasn’t an easy ride but worth the try (just make sure you keep a car at the bridge) it’s about 3 1/2 hour float full of wonderful Scenery and unforgettable views. If you like the outdoors like us you should book it.

Country bliss
This ranch offered so many great things for my family. The 2 homes were nice and fully equipped with everything we needed. We loved having access to the river, I liked that we had a private place to swim, float, kayak and just relax in the beautiful, clear water.

Family Fun
The property worked well for our family vacation. Great air conditioning all through both cabins. The golf cart made getting to and from the river easy. The outside deck was really nice. A big deep swimming hole a short walk downriver. Son-in-law enjoyed fishing, a lot of catch and release. Ages 5- 60+ everyone enjoyed. Didn't see another person on the river for the 4 days we were there.

Wonderful Summer Stay
Would 10/10 recommend. We had a bigger group of guys and every single of us enjoyed the property. While we did have a slight water issue, the owners were very quick to answer and send someone to fix the problem at 5:00 AM the next day. Crystal clear water and fun amenities will make you rebook your next trip asap.

Amazing, peaceful hill country beautiful place
Our family loved our stay at Nomad Ranch. The home has everything you would need for your stay. Quite and peaceful sitting on the big back porch. Wild life to see and hear. River spot was amazing our family has no complaints. We can't wait to return next year. The town of Camp Wood stole our hearts. The folks were so nice. Marci was quick to respond any time i had a question. So much entertainment provided by Nomad Ranch that you dont have to bring from home. Well lit at night outside. Plenty of room for everyone. We enjoyed feeding the humming birds and other birds. The home stays nice and cool. We enjoyed trying the free samples and being able to scan the qr codes to order the products that we liked. Driving to the river to let all our items out for the day was great. Our bunch enjoyed the kayaks that is provided. The beautiful live oaks on the property are great for shade. Highly recommend Nomad Ranch for the perfect river vacation.
