Our 100 acre heritage property has been in the family for over 150 years. Since 2017, we've been operating our land as a Vegan, Regenerative-Agriculture Farm & Animal Sanctuary. We currently have 2 dogs, 3 cats plus a herd of 31 Cows, 4 Potbelly Pigs and 2 Spanish Goats. The cows and pigs are all rescue animals so, where as they are adapted to humans being around them, they are very shy and petting them is not allowed. The dogs, cats and goats, on the other hand, are very friendly and love to be pet and fed treats. We are located outside of Dime Box, TX and are a 30 minute drive from the quaint, artist village of Round Top, and 12 miles from Lake Somerville SP. Our property has equal parts rolling pastures and wooded thickets and ravines. There are plenty of nooks and crannies to explore and gorgeous views of the Texas horizons....time your stay just right and you can stand directly between the sunset and the moonrise! We also have a hike-and-bike, nature trail that offers a 360 loop around the property. We have a new construction Bath House on site for restroom needs w/ hot showers and composting potties plus a cold-water sink w/ non-potable water suited for washing produce, hands, dishes or camping gear.

Site 6 - Tent Camp at Vegan Animal Sanctuary

I love camping here, it is very peaceful, everything is clean and organized. Hollie and Davey are very nice and always checking on you. Favorite part their Director of guest services (their lovely dog Shasta) is beautiful and very friendly. I will keep coming here, totally worth it for a getaway camping.

Site 4 - Tent Camp at Vegan Animal Sanctuary

Beautiful camp site. We were in a private area with enough room for the cars, tents, and fire area. Will plan to come back

Peaceful Stay at RV Site 1

RV Site #1

We really enjoyed staying on Hollie and Davey’s land. We were at RV Site 1. It was level, had plenty of room and had water and electric hookups. We were greeted by Shasta, a very friendly dog who also accompanied us on walks around the property. We liked the peace and quiet. We were near a road but rarely heard any traffic. They have other more remote sites but they didn’t have electricity. We were fine where we stayed. It was very a very relaxing place. I recommend it and would stay there again.

Site 4 - Tent Camp at Vegan Animal Sanctuary

Camping on Dave and Sarah’s land was a perfect blend of adventure and tranquility for my family. We spent the evenings gathered around a crackling campfire, roasting marshmallows under a sky bursting with stars. The kids loved exploring the wooded trails and open meadows, while my wife and I cherished the peaceful escape and meaningful conversations surrounded by nature.

We keep coming back to Starlove Ranch, and it's no surprise why! Hollie and Davey have created a special place where guests feel instantly welcomed and at ease. From the moment we arrive, they treat us like old friends, making the ranch feel like a second home. The camping spots are the best, offering a variety of perfect locations whether you want to be nestled in privacy or enjoy wide-open views. Each site is spacious, peaceful, and ideal for both relaxation and adventure. We always leave counting the days until our next visit!
