My family and I loved staying at the house. The area is beautiful and secluded. It has a large number of beds and a seats and a very functional kitchen. I feel like there's two types of house rentals: the ones that are clearly just a minimally stocked place that hasn't had humans living there at length for years, and then rentals that feel lived in and loved, and has tons of small things. This house is very much in the latter better group. The house itself is covered in beautiful history and is very comfortable.
I can't wait to plan a weekend around this with family and friends to all be together in one place, either just to hang out or to celebrate something or someone important.

Walnut Grove Ranch is so relaxing, peaceful and quiet. It's also a great place to step back into history. The yard surrounding the house is great for young imaginations. Lots of adventures to be had. The patios are great for outdoor dining and watching the wildlife.

This was exactly what my family needed. We were able to reconnect and enjoy being together while sti
We enjoyed short hikes around the area and relaxing under the trees just hatting. There were corn hole competitions and all night. Board games. We fed the peacocks and enjoyed watching their colorful displays naps and spots to. Snooze or read a good book we're well utilized.

The outside space of this property is unbeatable. We spent the entire weekend under the covered pavilion and it was glorious. The house served our purposes, though we had some issues with cleanliness. A couple of the beds had dirty sheets and the dishwasher was full of dirty dishes, and it had not been dusted in awhile. The house has a ton of character and interesting history. It was a fun quirky place overall.

We had a great stay at the property. The property manager was so friendly and nice. We would book again. The scenery and wildlife were beautiful. The history of the home, and items in the home, was like staying in a museum. We had an amazing time.

Our stay at Walnut Grove Ranch was so peaceful and relaxing. The scenery and the house are just so beautiful I cannot express in words. I have five teenagers and they all had a blast exploring the property and learning all the history about the house and just Lincoln in general. Becca is the best host ever and was very responsive to any and all questions we had. We will definitely be planning another stay for much longer next time.

There were 14 of us that consisted of three families. 6 adults and 8 kids (ages from 1-13). The home is very large and set-up in a way that we never felt crowded! It was extremely accommodating and the price is fantastic. Becca, the owner of the property, is so sweet and eager to assist with any and allllllll our questions
(We had a lot) 😬. We hiked up the mountain on the property, fed the wild peacock’s and turkeys, enjoyed watching the Ram’s with their new baby’s, and the hogs at night were neat! We are from South East Texas, and it was definitely worth the 12 hour drive. Ski Apache is just a short drive and the kids LOVED that experience. You will not be disappointed with Walnut Grove!

Third year the best!
We feel at home at the Walnut Grove Ranch. Many upgrades this year. We love these mountains because quite a few of our ancestors lived and are buried in this area. The property manager/owner treats us like kinfolk.

Walnut Grove Ranch is such a beautiful place. My great-great grandfather was Sheriff William Brady who was gunned down by Billy the Kid during the Lincoln County War. It was so magical to be given the opportunity to stay in his home and bring the Brady family together to share in this opportunity. Becca and her family are such great hosts. We truly thank them for everything.

Take a step back in time!
Our family took a break from electronics and we played! We loved creating memories with family that will last a lifetime. We hiked, explored, played games, fed the wildlife, cooked and more everyday. The whole family, even the dogs, loved every minute. And Becca was an amazing host, making numerous recommendations and she was a pleasure to work with. I would absolutely stay again!

Brother in law loved the history. Teens loved the outdoors and kids loved the hide and seek options. And grandma loved watching them all together (and comfy recliner for napping). Had a great times snuggled in the down blankets while it snowed!

Peaceful unique property. Perfect for larger groups
This was such a great and memorable place to stay during Christmas! We had a total of 11 people in our group and it comfortably accommodated all of us. We enjoyed the wildlife early in the mornings and were able to catch the peacocks during the day. We would definitely consider this property again in the furture!
