About this house rental
Cowboy Pool Open March-October, Closed November-February.
Located at High Hope Ranch, Mata Z'amo is connected to the 1000 acres of protected. Meaning "Up High" in Swahili, Mata Z'amo cabin is perched on a cliffside lending our guests epic views of the hill country. Enjoy dark skies, wolves howling at dusk from Fossil Rim, and over 20 miles of hiking trails.
Sleeps up to 8- 2 bunkbeds & upstairs master loft with a queen & trundle bed.
Livestock (including cattle, chickens, pigs, goats, ranch dogs Rosie and Popeye, and the guard donkey, Zoey) roam the ranch. We ask kindly that you not approach the cattle or chickens, but the rest are all very keen on head scratches and pets!
Chances are you'll see deer, armadillos, and lots of wild birds. We sometimes see other native wildlife like such as quail, turkey, coyote, feral hogs, foxes, and bobcats.
This is a non-smoking, drug-free house. Ash trays are provided on the porch. Burn bans are often in effect, please check with host before starting campfires.
We do host retreats, family reunions, parties, and weddings. Please ask about our day use rates and other facilities available for groups.
Guests have access to all 1000 acres with 20+ miles of hiking trails and landmarks like the Stone Circle, Star Pad, Goat Cave, Sunset Cliff, and are of course welcome to arrange a tour to visit the working Farm on property.
Guests have access to our on site Farm Store where they can stock up on essentials like ranch raised meat, drinks, canned food items like jellies, jams, pickles, salsa, and other snacks. All food is grown or made on site with organic practices and values. Open by appointment only! Every purchase goes towards supporting young farmers and land conservation.
