Perfect Cozy Cabin!
This was such a wonderful cabin with lots of room! It was quiet and dark for star gazing. Close to Garner and Lost Maples if you have a day pass. Utopia is only 10 minutes away if you need groceries or necessities. The General Store has a deli for sandwiches and fresh cut steaks if you want to use the grill at the cabin. The cabin kitchen had almost everything needed to cook any meal. The trails on the property were really nice and easy to hike. We were able to see more wild life there than the two state parks we went to and was great for bird watching. Highly recommend this cabin for couples get away or small family vacations! We will definitely be coming back for our yearly trip to Garner.

Indian Blanket was a great location for the April 2024 Eclipse! Leann and team we very friendly and easy to work with. Directions were very straightforward and the site was well cleared with establish "roads" and campsites. The location is very spread out with lots of options for campsites without nearby neighbors. For this larger, special event, Leann went above and beyond to make sure we had a fun, memorable trip. The "gathering place" was so much fun for storytelling, live music, and of course great views for the eclipse. They even provided portapotties and a temporary water supply to be extra accommodating, but I'm not sure that's going to be standard going forward. There's a couple short established hiking trails to the north, and possibly a future jeeping road, but they mentioned they're working hard to extend the trail options and make exploration a big draw to this area. Primitive camping as advertised, so bring lots of water, and plan to pack out your trash. Thank you Leann and team! We had a blast (even if we had cloudy weather ;-D)!

Great Time at Indian Blanket Ranch
I had a great time at Indian Blanket Ranch. Nice facility with a good set up. Able to easily find a quiet camping spot even during a busy time with the eclipse. Staff was OUTSTANDINGLY friendly and helpful. Did the hike up to Lookout Point. Beautiful views and was worth the effort. Nature was out and about during my stay. The presentation for the eclipse was incredibly informative and helped prepare me for a couple of amazing shots of the eclipse even with the clouds that tried to interrupt. Availability of wi-fi at the office was GREATLY appreciated since cell service for me (Verizon) was not available. Actually was nice to disconnect from the phone for a while!

Total Solar Eclipse on the Ranch
My wife and I had the great pleasure of staying on Leanne‘s property Indian Blanket Ranch for the eclipse. The ranch was gorgeous and had lots of great sites for RVs and tents. We had a tent site on the far side of the ranch that had magnificent views and a great big oak tree for shade. Most of the sites had bird boxes for nesting bluebirds. Leanne had the weekend well organized with nature walks and birding with Lee Haile, who also told stories and played music in the evenings. He was very knowledgeable, a lot of fun and a wonderful entertainer. There was a very informative lecture on solar eclipses by Eclipse Michael and the eclipse itself was spectacular. Leanne was a great host and took care of everyone’s needs. We had a wonderful stay and hope to come back again.

Great time at Indian Blanket Ranch
I went to Indian Blanket Ranch for the April 2024 solar eclipse and was very pleased with the property. The views were spectacular, the property was well maintained, there was plenty of space between campsites, and the Nature center was nice also. The skies were dark at night so the stars were very prominent. The flowers, birds and wildlife were wonderful. Highly recommended if you are looking for a laidback destination away from the crowds but only 5 miles from the Frio River.

Peaceful and Charming
What a beautiful ranch. The host could not have been any nicer, two very amazing people!!! Lots of bird watching. The solar eclipse was spectacular, something I will never forget. The area around Indian Blanket is charming. The town of Leaky was great! I stopped in the mercantile to pick up some supplies, absolutely had a blast. If you are looking for an out of the way place, give this property a try, you won't be disappointed. Just don't camp next to the windmill, it's a little squeaky when the wind blows.
