Big d ranch bunkhouse bed & breakfast
We live on my husband’s great Grandfather’s land that was purchased some time in 1893. Originally there were 5000 acres and it was passed down to 3 generations. Frank Cheatham Reid moved to Texas from Alabama and fell in love with a young woman Augusta Stulting, born and raised in Gonzales TX. They purchased land out off the Shiner Highway (Alt. 90) and lived on the land and farmed. Gussie decided one day that she wanted to live in town (9 miles away) and Cheat Reid made that happen. They moved to town and he sold all of the land in the country save approximately 2000 acres. That land was passed down to their 6 children and then to their children. Today heirs of 4 of those original children still own their Great Grandfathers land. We inherited 45 acres and have access to another 350 acres that we lease from family. We are a small cattle ranch and have about 30 head of cattle. We have 6 children and 18 Grandchildren which I call my Grin-Kids and they are why the Bunkhouse came to be. We built our home and retired here and love hosting our crew at the Big D Ranch.
