Otra Vez Ranch Im Herzen Des Hügellandes

434± Acres | Spicewood, Texas | Heart of the Hill Country

Tucked away in the rolling hills of Spicewood, Texas, Otra Vez Ranch is a rare
434± acre recreational escape that offers the perfect balance of natural beauty,
Hill Country heritage, and proximity to Austin. Since its acquisition in 1989, this
storied property has been a beloved family retreat—a place where generations
have gathered to ride horses, raise cattle, hunt, hike, swim, and, more recently,
care for their small herd of zebras.

A landscape rich in diversity, the ranch unfolds with dramatic views, spring-fed
grottos, and wide pastures teeming with wildlife. From fossil hunting to fireside
evenings beneath the oaks, Otra Vez is more than a ranch—it’s a place to return
to again and again.

Location

Perfectly positioned for both privacy and accessibility:

● 37 miles | 45 minutes to Austin
● 16 miles to Marble Falls
● 21 miles to Horseshoe Bay
● Nearby attractions include Lake Travis, boutique wineries, acclaimed
distilleries, and some of the Hill Country’s best dining and entertainment.

Land & Water

The terrain is nothing short of enchanting. With 280 feet of elevation change,
Otra Vez Ranch reveals sweeping vistas, rolling pastures, and a network of
gullies and wooded ridges. Carefully managed through decades of stewardship,
the land is both scenic and functional:
● Native oaks and grasses dominate the landscape, with cedar cleared
selectively to enhance grazing and preserve wildlife habitat
● Fenced into 3 primary pastures, with a 4th near completion
● Brackett-Real and clay loam soils support a rich ecological foundation
● Extensive road and trail system allows for seamless access throughout

Water is abundant and diverse:
● 3 natural springs feed grottos, swimming holes, and a seasonal creek
● 2 water wells supply the homes and a large concrete stock
tank-turned-swimming-pool
● Little Cypress Creek, a seasonal tributary, winds across the north end of
the property
● One spring carves its way to a hidden grotto - a family favorite for hiking
and exploration

Recreational Paradise

Few ranches offer this level of variety and adventure so close to Austin. Whether
your passion lies in outdoor sports or peaceful pastimes, Otra Vez delivers:
● Hunting: White-tailed deer, dove, turkey, quail, and hogs roam freely,
supported by seven strategically placed feeders and ample water sources
● Fossil and arrowhead hunting in multiple places throughout the ranch
● Skeet shooting, gardening, and unplugged family time under the stars
● Zebra watching - a whimsical touch that adds charm and conversation
