The space
The Indigo is a 2023 Jayco Jayflight travel trailer equipped with a full kitchen, dining area that doubles as a sleeping area, and two queen sized beds. The top bunk is for storage only.
This unit is situated on the quiet, country property of Booker's Dude Ranch in Henderson, Texas, home of the Heritage Syrup Festival. The property is perfect for quiet, private getaways under the stars. Wake up to the sounds of nature with our local bluebirds, mockingbirds, blue jays, and hummingbirds. Every now and again you will see a bald eagle or red-tailed hawk. Bring your horses for a nice ride and rest. Henderson hosts rodeos during the rodeo season and this is a great place for both you and your horse to stretch your legs.
We have on-site bbq grills, playground, venue, and outdoor seating. Book a family reunion or corporate event at the venue and have your family or friends stay in the on-site lodging.
We are pet friendly and if you come during the holiday season, we will even invite you over for a southern home cooked meal. *HORSES ALLOWED-Must present current NEGATIVE COGGINS TEST RESULTS. No exceptions
We offer big truck parking on the upper area of the property as well.
Outside
We are in a very natural setting with lots of trees. Many of the very large pine trees were planted by East Texas horseman Booker T. Washington, who was the original owner of the property. We also boasts large oak trees as well. You will find wildflowers, Red-Tailed Hawks, Blue Jays, Cardinals, Chickadees, Crows, and the occasional sighting of an American Bald Eagle. Pets love to run around the property and check out the scents and sounds.
At night, the sky is unobstructed and you can enjoy a full view of the moon, stars, and planets. Our mornings are greeted with a full view of the sun rising up over the trees. Dusk allows you to enjoy full views of the setting sun towards the front of the property.
We have grills and you are welcome to bring your own. There is a playground on the far left of the property where children can play. You can also use our volleyball net and mini basketball court.
Picnic and cafe tables are spreaded throughout the property and near the RV's.
