Fine as Cream Gravy

The Ranch is something to behold, and there’s plenty to do. From trick roping to live music, we promise to serve you a heapin’ helpin’ of Texas-style entertainment.

When you are done with your workshops, you can count on some Texas-sized, easy-goin’, after hours fun: Hay rides, horseback riding, massage, horse shoe tossin’, kickball, swimming, paddle boating and canoeing in the beautiful Guadalupe River, lounging in the grass, marshmallow roastin’ and trick ropin’, just to name a few. After all, we gotta do something with all that Texas land.

Design Ranch is known for bringing out some of the finest music Texas has to offer, so each night we invite you to grab a cold one and dance to a live band playing under the big Texas sky. Once again we will feature the sounds of Austin favorites from rockabilly to country to rock and roll.

Thursday Night
Aubrey Slackey and the Slackey Family Band
Aubrey’s easygoing nature and ramblin’ Texas sounds are a perfect introduction to nights on the ranch.

Friday Night
Jesse Dayton
Jesse brings true Texas rockabilly swagger to the ranch. He’s so cool he even has a pair of boots named after him.

Saturday Night
Whiskey Folk Ramblers
The folk-noir stylings of Whiskey Folk Ramblers has best been described as what you might hear if "a gypsy caravan and cattle drive happened to cross trails and share a barrel or two of whiskey."
