We used the X-Bar Ranch for a business planning retreat. The Lodge worked great for meetings/work space, meals, and down time. The meeting room is spacious, comfortable, and has great views to remind you that you're not in a corporate setting. There is plenty of room to spread out, and use various areas of the building for work, vs. meals,... more

We stayed here for a couple of very peaceful nights. It rained the first day and the air smelled wonderful. Then it cleared off and there were all these amazing stars that night. I would go back and hike the trails, bring food to prepare in the lodge, and stay many more nights. Really a lovely place, I can't recommend... more

Awesome Getaway tucked away in the beauty of roughed West Texas! The Round House is that cozy little getaway you are looking for. With the most hospitable "Inn Keeper", you will ever hope to know. Loved it and plan a return in the near future. more

We only stayed one night and that was not nearly enough. We loved everything about it. The lodge and kitchen were very well-equipped and comfortable. The cabins were warm with very comfortable beds. Stan was exceptionally accommodating and made us feel welcome. Beautiful views from the deck. There is plenty to do at this wonderful, 'Get away from it all... more

I found x-bar ranch to a very nice set up. the views were outstanding and the friendliness of Stan Meador was more than we could hope for. Rooms are a little small but we were not there for the rooms. more

The Round House on X Bar Ranch is a wonderful place for a peaceful break. It combines comfort with privacy, is both unique (the house really is round!) and homely. The ranch has been in the Meador family for generations but only recently diversified into tourism - & do it with style and imagination. Everything about our contact with the... more

Accomodating, yet socially isolated. We enjoyed the accomodations (Stan was quite helpful) and the quiet around us. However, we didn't seem to fit in well with the other guests who I assume are regulars. Most were polite, but couldn't help staring unpolitely at (and then ignoring) one of us, who clearly doesn't look like most folks from rural Texas (I'll... more

Several friends and I had three glorious nights in August of clear dark skies to observe the heavens. We set up 7 telescopes on the back lawn of the lodge which had a well kept green turf with a great view of the horizons over low rolling hills. There were no significant stray light sources to contend with. There were... more

Stan and his family go out of their way to make sure you are well taken care of first and foremost. The cabins are excellent both inside and out. The ranch house is unbelievable in what it offers in terms of both kitchen and living room amenities and the conference room. I love sitting on the nice deck in the... more
