Embrace the Outdoors
Step outside onto an expansive porch and let the beauty of nature captivate you. Wander along a scenic 1/3-mile walking trail, relax at one of three charming picnic areas, or gather around the fire pit as the Texas sky fills with stars. Enjoy the playful company of freely roaming sheep, chickens, and goats—including our friendly Nigerian dwarf goat—and don’t miss a chance to meet our photogenic rooster, Peewee!
A Rich Tapestry of History and Local Charm
Set just minutes from downtown Boerne and a short drive from San Antonio, Comfort, and Bandera, Kingsby Farmhouse is steeped in local heritage. Once a community hub established by pioneer W. G. Hughes, the property reflects the spirit of early Texas ranch life. Explore the historic narratives, visit nearby boutiques and art galleries, or indulge in local dining—from eclectic American fare to authentic Italian cuisine.
