About this property

Papa's Palace at Stacy Ranch, cabin on 120 acres between Ingram & Hunt, TX

Good News, see notice at the end.This newly constructed wood and rock cabin has a front porch that overlooks a pond. It is perfect for a quiet, secluded get-away from the city. You can go hiking over the hills, fish down on the river or just relax in the hammock. All kinds of native and exotic Texas wildlife can be seen on the property. The cabin is located just a half mile off Cade Loop road on 120 acres. This area is the most beautiful part of the Texas Hill Country. Though the cabin is out in the country, it is less than a five minute drive to the Guadalupe River and Ingram Lake. The cabin has 400 square feet of living area with a living room/ kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. The kitchen has a small refrigerator, microwave, sink, and large toaster oven. The living room has a couch that converts into a queen sleeping sofa. The bathroom has a sink, toilet and shower. Ceiling fans are in every room and there are two fans on the front porch. Electric hotel-like ac/heating units in the bedrooms keep you warm or cool. It is a perfect place for a couple or a small family. All of this, plus the modern luxury of limited data ;free WI-FI!

Notice
The lake is full again. We are in the process of restocking fish. We respect to have catch and release fishing in the fall of 2025. Also there are plenty of
swimming and fishing opportunities on Lake Ingram 5 minutes away. So bring your Kayaks or canoes if you want.



If you need more space, there is another cabin (Mimi's Mansion) on the property within walking distance (see VRBO #682415). Discounts given if you book both cabins at the same time .

Beautiful Getaway

This is exactly what we were looking for on Memorial Day weekend. My husband and I are nature lovers and wanted to get away from the crowds and enjoy some quiet time. We had 120 acres all to ourselves and got to hike and explore. We saw lots of wildlife and incredible starry skies that we don’t get to see in the city. Our hosts were wonderful and made themselves readily available if we needed anything. The cabin was very clean and comfortable with a great porch that we used often. We were even greeted with a bouquet of fresh flowers on the table. It was a slice of heaven and we can’t wait to go back!

This place is a gem!

We had a wonderful time in this little cabin. It was completely secluded, peaceful, and serene. At dusk each night, a whippoorwill started singing and we saw several deer. The sunsets were amazing! It was very comfortable and relaxing.

Hill country hideaway

Quiet, secluded location. Some wildlife and large fish in the lake. Only disappointment was burn ban restricting outside fires, but wasn't really cool enough at night to enjoy a fire anyway. Thanks to hosts Philip and Jeanne...we enjoyed our stay very much. We'll be back

Great Experience !

This was our second time on this property, the owner and his wife have created more than a getaway; it is such as a great experience for whoever wants to run away from the city. This place is to disconnect your brain, relax and enjoy the nature in a very comfortable cabin. We will be back soon !

Loved our stay! Had the best time fishing, enjoying nature, cooking out, making s’mores, watching the fireflies and enjoying nature! A great place to get away from it all but still close to kerville for a trip to town if needed.

Nice little break!

Our second visit to Papa's Palace went very well. We had uncommonly cool weather during this and the prior visit. The fishing is good, the noise is low and the escaping the rat race feeling was complete. Watching the mist rise off of the pond at sunrise while drinking coffee--priceless.

Family Getaway

We rented both cabins on the property and couldn’t have been happier. The location was perfectly secluded, however a short drive to town. The pond was perfect for swimming/fishing. Fire pit and grill on site. Overall amazing time, we hope to come back. Tips: use Waze app for directions, my IPhone map wouldn’t find the location If you’re using the living room to sleep take a fan the living room was much warmer than the bedroom

Loved it!

Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. My only complaint would be the lack of blinds and/or curtains on some of the windows. We had a horrible thunderstorm the first night and there was no way to block out the flashes of lightning. However other than that small inconvenience, it was a perfect stay! If you’re looking for a country stay, away from noise and crowds, this is the great place.

About the host

Hosted by Philip Stacy

Host profile image
Our families are fourth and sixth generation Texans. We've been lucky enough to live and raise our family in the beautiful Hill Country along the Guadalupe River. I am a retired banker and school teacher and am currently the director of a local non-profit organization. I enjoy spending time outdoors.

Why they chose this property

This property has been in my family since 1936 when my grandfather purchased it. The 120 acre pasture is part of a larger working ranch that is located between Ingram and Hunt Texas.

What makes this property unique

Beautiful natural scenery along with gorgeous Texas sunsets from the tops of the hills. Quiet and peaceful but located just minutes away from Texas Highway 39 that takes you to west to the quaint town of Hunt (10 minutes) or east to Kerrville (15 minutes). San Antonio, Texas is just an hour away.
