No matter what your age, there is nothing more thrilling than having someone else take the reins and plan a surprise weekend just for you. Now imagine that the surprise destination is a cozy room or bungalow at a gorgeous ranch in Texas Hill Country! This is exactly what happened with my recent guests here at BlissWood!
This particular birthday surprise was planned by the wife and mother of a young family for her husband. She planned the trip, packed for everyone, and drove her husband and young son in for a great weekend getaway. Her husband likes a rustic atmosphere, so our Log Cabin was the perfect place for their time away from home for peace, tranquility, and great food from Carol’s at Cat Spring restaurant. Of course, I personally think that their son had the best time of anyone: he took horseback riding lessons, enjoyed climbing trees, and loved seeing the animals – especially the peacock! But what better present could a person ask for than a perfect weekend and the joy of their child’s delight?
Even better, I foster and help rescue border collies through All Border Collie Rescue. The couple’s son happened to fall in love with one of my current rescues while here, and I now have the perfect home and loving family for a beautiful animal. So the husband isn’t the only one who received a great present that weekend – I did too!
With BlissWood’s beauty, magic, lodging options from communal to remote, on-site and area activities, and great food, you too can plan the perfect getaway for that perfect someone – or for yourself! A visit to BlissWood guest ranch near Houston is the perfect way to celebrate a birthday, anniversary, or any occasion!
