7A Ranch

My sister and I visited 7A this weekend, and had an absolutely incredible time! We came because it was affordable and had great reviews, but were blown away when we got there. The rooms were clean, the beds were comfortable, and we had everything we needed. In the morning, we woke up to deer grazing right by our patio, and then walked across the street to the river for the sunrise and exploring before heading up and exploring the incredible Pioneer Town! That was such an unexpected surprise! Pictures can't do it justice, this is a must-see experience and well worth the price! We will definitely be back!

7A ranch was the perfect location for our family reunion. Because our family was so large we had to divide up into two units - the Moonlight Lodge and Cantina Loft 8. They were close enough to each other that it didn't impact us at all. We loved the pool and really enjoyed strolling through Pioneer Town. Plenty for all of us to do - though we had so much fun at family meals and gathering around the large dining tables in the Moonlight Lodge. The units were very clean and very well equipped. And most of all, the staff were so friendly and helpful and accommodating. I can't say enough about their help. It was the best reunion we've had!

7A Ranch is a true Hill Country treasure. The staff is incredibly welcoming and consistently goes above and beyond to make your stay feel special. The property is beautifully maintained, with stunning views overlooking the river that create a peaceful, unforgettable atmosphere. If you’re looking for a relaxing getaway with excellent service and breathtaking scenery, 7A Ranch is an easy choice. Highly recommended!

We stayed here with a large group (30 people) for a weekend get away. Great location with beautiful river access. Accommodations were great and had unique ability to have large group in a space where everyone could be close. There were large hangout areas and kitchens w/ large number of separate rooms with each room having its own bathroom.

Our family stayed in Classic Cabins 9, 10, and 11. Unfortunately, the cabins were outdated and not very clean. In our cabin, the toilet was broken and unstable when sat on. The grass was overgrown—especially near Cabins 10 and 11—making it hard to enjoy the riverfront view.||We were also disappointed that the train wasn’t running and the ice cream parlor closed early. Overall, the Classic Cabins are overpriced for their current condition and need significant upkeep.||That said, we did enjoy our time at the river and appreciated the location’s natural beauty.

Loved every minute of our stay here at 7A. The agave house is the perfect house for a large family gathering. The way the house is laid out with the kids room on one side of the house all other rooms on the other side and the master is in the back makes it absolutely perfect. The kitchen is well stocked in the agave house and the cantina cabins. Everything is nice meat and organized. We felt completely at home on this property no matter where we went. It was easy to navigate walk around to the multiple different units we rented. The pool was clean. The kids had a blast getting in the river and the pool. They loved the Easter egg hunt in Pioneer town. We cannot wait to come back and enjoy some more outdoor river time here.

Loved the front porch view of the river, easy access back to the town and staff was kind and helpful. Gift shop was great with large assortment of shirts and souvenirs

Heads up, even though everything on TPWD site says dogs are allowed on the Blanco River (which the river itself is PUBLIC and not privately owned) this place does not allow dogs on the river, unless of course you are staying there…which makes zero sense. Their website says nothing about dogs not being allowed on the river only that they are not allowed on certain areas of the property without an additional fee. So don’t make the mistake we did and drive all the way there to then be turned away for silly reason where they only give exceptions to guest.

This was such a fun place to have a conference. The Opera House is a great space for large meetings, complete with an area for serving food. Lots of tables and chairs as well as a stage for presentations. The entire pioneer town is quaint and fun to just stroll around. Some of the buildings, like the saloon, have mannequins on display that you can view from the window. Others you can go inside. One building contains a gift shop with items like jewelry and arrowheads as well as an enormous jackalope you can climb on top of and pay to have your picture taken. My room in Meg's Boarding House was clean and neat and very modern, complete with a flatscreen TV mounted on the wall. There was a coffee maker in the room, but no coffee. I thought that was really strange. There are cabins for rent here as well. This would definitely be a fun place to stay at with kids.

We did a self-tour during what would be considered outside of tourist dates as we were the only ones there. The little "town" is undergoing renovations and upgrades but it didn't stop us from exploring. Situated along the water you really get the old Western town feel. The little locomotive was working and we did see people on it but opted to save that for the next time. We do want go back when everything is in full swing with folks dressed from the era, shops open, etc. Still, we had fun walking around and checking everything out. I just think this is such a cute experience for everyone.

Went to this place for a comedy show! Yes a comedy show, in wimberly, and it was great! The community was great, the comics were great, and the venue was really neat. Has a cool haunted vibe, and the whole ranch has these old buildings that were brought together to make an old western town. Very cool, definitely work a visit.

This place was so neat. It was free to walk around and i took my parents because we're all really into history. You can also stay here for the night which seemed super cool! Or you can pay to swim in the river after you check out the town. Make sure to go to the museum!! It was just wonderful and the lady was so kind. I want to go again and stay the night. They also have a gift shop with all the essentials and more. It was a lovely experience.

I00% do not recommend. We stayed in the Big Star Lodge and it was a miserable experience. First, the rooms are on either side of a hallway. On one side, the rooms were almost 80 degrees while the other side was very cold. Also, there is absolutely no sound proofing. Every sound in the common room can be heard clearly in every single room. Late night partying or even loud conversation can ruin sleep for everyone else. The wifi provided less than 1mbps when I was the only one on it. What else: the sheets are rough as heck, like 100 thread count, like fine sandpaper. The handicap accessible room is NOT labeled, so we had to move little old ladies around in the morning so the grandmas could actually shower. A simple ADA accessible sign on the door would have saved a lot of grief. The kitchen worked well, but every clank of every pan echos into every room. Bottom line, this place is unsuitable unless everyone wants to party all night or nobody does. I was absolutely miserable. In the morning I heard someone say, "we we paid over $150 for this??" In the morning, multiple people were booking other hotels for the rest of stay. Just terrible. Avoid.

We made a stop to Pioneer town and it was fantastic!! The workers were so nice, the cowboy museum was very cute and informative with lots of history in it. We loved the ice cream parlor, highly recommend pistachio ice cream! The old arcade games in the gift shop/welcome center were so fun! Will be returning if we are in wimberley again!

I saw this spot on TikTok and wouldn't have ever known Pioneer Town existed had it not been for that video. What an awesome place to see! Although the town is closed because of Covid, the staff member working the ranch store said we were more than welcome to walk around and explore the town as well as walk down to the river access. We had a great time being the only two in the town, and we will definitely be back to stay once things go back to normal. Highly recommended for all ages.

W just arrived into Wimberley and found this little place by accident. It is a cute little tourist spot with plenty of picture ops. We were there while they were preparing for a wedding. The saloon was decorated nicely waiting for the wedding guests and the chapel was just lovely. Made me wish I'd be getting married here! Great way to spend a few hours walking around and seeing some old relics!

Incredible Ambience great place for the kids. A bit of intrigue in history light off the water and close to the cabins the whole area is beautiful

I have very fond memories of family reunions in the 70's and early 80's at the 7A Ranch Resort. As a kid, it was SO MUCH FUN to run around w/my cousins in pioneer town, going to the arcade, ice cream parlor, general store, riding the train. They have old cabins and buildings like a hotel, jail, doctor office that have big windows you can look in to see how people lived in the 1800's, and a whole little building/cabin that is built with glass soda bottles, and a blacksmith shop, and other buildings that a 1800's pioneer town would have. Also, back in the day, they had a "medicine show" that was a little stage on a covered wagon, so funny! Such a cool place! It's sad that over the years, it wasn't kept up good, and then the historic flood came thru about 5 - 6 years ago, (7A Resort is across the road from the Blanco River) the swimming pool was totally re-done and brand new guest cabins were built. Pioneer Town wasn't flooded, Thank God! As an adult, it's still fun to walk around there. The owners are building new train tracks, so that's a good sign. If I had enough money I would buy this place. If you are ever in the Wimberley area, go check out and/or stay at the 7A Ranch Resort and Pioneer Town. Good Times and Sweet Memories!

Cute little hangout. Old school games and ice cream. This would make a cute spot for a western-themed photo shoot. Heard they were gonna bring back the train ride in about a year; this place has some fun potential!

Very cute, some interesting old buildings. If you like historical stuff and western stuff, you'll like Pioneer Town. Not worth a trip by itself, but if you are in Wimberley for the weekend, it is certainly worth an afternoon.

We visit Pioneer Town mainly for the Cowboy Museum run by Jack Glover - a real old Texas dude. He's a super nice guy and has an extensive collection of art and old fire arms - and a 5 foot tall jackalope you can take your picture on. Kids love it the place. So do I. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lThpxqucUkg

I used to come here when I was a kid. The place is almost exactly the same which I loved. They have swimming, arcade, and an old fashioned ice cream parlor! Fun times, and there is also a little gift shop with cool goodies

I LOVE Pioneer Town but you have to bring your sense of humor and irony. They have these great (read:terrible) set ups of mannequins playing cards and other household activities and an 8 foot stuffed "jackalope". There's never anyone there since the liability insurance forced the closure of the fort and the train so it's really desolate and rad. There's also an arcade and an ice cream parlor. Did I mention that it had it's heyday in the 60's?
