Welcome to Twin Oaks Ranch! This 220-acre ranch has been in the same family for over 150 years and is located on Rocky Creek, where historians say Sam Houston and his troops once spent the night. Twin Oaks Ranch is located centrally between Houston, Austin & San Antonio, near the charming communities of Schulenburg and Hallettsville. Close enough for easy weekend getaways, but a serene country setting that feels far from the city. Rolling hills with mature live oak trees and three ponds, along with woods and prairies for exploring, hunting and fishing. The property includes a beautiful custom Ranch House with a pool, a lovely Guest House, and an Event Space for entertaining friends and family.
