 Barnhart Q5 Ranch

 

Relax, explore, hike, bike, horseback ride, birdwatch, hunt (exclusive use only), or let us help you design a special program for you, your friends and family at our 706 acre working ranch while staying in the rustic restored Maetze-von Dohlen located in Berclair between Goliad and Beeville, Texas.

The Historic Maetze-von Dohlen home was built in 1877 in Goliad Texas and was recently moved to its new home at the Barnhart Q5 Ranch, just north of Berclair, TX. Lovingly restored, the pine walls, chandeliers, 12 foot ceilings, fireplaces and 6 foot windows with panoramic views make this an ideal setting for a romantic weekend or family vacation.


Rock on the Porch


Make Friends with the Mediterranean Miniature Donkeys

Rock on the large porch catching the SE breezes and be amused by miniature donkeys grazing and playing in the pastures while reflecting on the rising or setting sun and moon. Read, play games, dine - or just commune by the fireplace in the comfortable living room under the light of our 18th century chandelier. Group or family time could not be better with our modern kitchen and comfortable living room. The kitchen is stocked with breakfast foods, coffees, teas, spices, cookware and utensils, dishes and napkins. The main house has 3 bedrooms that sleep 2-4 people each. The "birdhouse" is a small efficiency apartment in a separate building. Each of the bedrooms and the birdhouse has a private bath. You may rent the whole premises or any room separately.

Romance in the privacy of the large Jane Long suite while bathing in the double bathtub under the reflective prism lights of a Waterford chandelier and cozy up to the private in-suite fireplace - or have your family reunion or a group of friends here. Unwind under the stars by the firepit at night, cool off in the country cold tub by day. We have a horseshoe pit, hammocks and swings for lazy days.

The Barnhart Q5 Ranch was awarded Texas Parks & Wildlife's Lone Star Land Stewardship Award "In Recognition of Outstanding Efforts in the Conservation and Enhancement of Wildlife Habitat in Texas" in 2004. It has over 18 miles of hike and bike trails through its rolling South Texas brush country. We feed wildlife year-round at 8 of our ponds around the property, and offer wildlife viewing and photography or hunting blinds at each site. Located within the intersection of the southern and northern migratory paths, birdwatchers can see large numbers of green jay, bunting, raptors, heron, ibis, hummingbird, and more. Deer, Bobwhite quail, dove, turkey, and the occasional bobcat can be sited. Our night sky is black and loaded with stars. Grab your pillows and head for the high point on stargazer hill for fabulous stargazing while coyote serenade you.

Bring your own horses - stabling fees at $25./night per.
