Bandera is an easy drive from San Antonio and less than two hours from Austin. Take the back roads if you go, because the scenery is rolling and pastoral. The Center is located on a large game ranch. The facilities are well kept, the buildings pleasant, the staff hospitable, and the food excellent. I enjoyed traipsing about the wooded pastures,... More

We had our company retreat here last week. Most definitely can't fault the place. The atmosphere was great, the staff were always around to help but were also very unobtrusive. It really felt like we were there on our own except when we needed something! The food was awesome (being a vegetarian myself, I can assure you that this isn't... More

We just got back from our annual staff retreat, which we held at the Purple Sage Ranch this year. Our employees raved about the facilities and activities at the Purple Sage Ranch. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly - true Texas hospitality! Would be great for a family getaway as well!

Our recent company retreat was at Purple Sage. The facilities and rooms are clean and well maintained. The food is very good (lots of variety, mostly well made, fresh). There's lots to do here, outdoors and indoors (we couldn't get enough of it). However, where the ranch truly shines is their staff. They are very caring and extremely accommodating to... More

I attended a company retreat at this ranch and it was excellent. They kept us well stocked with food and drinks. The game room was a lot of fun with pool, ping pong, foosball, shuffleboard, popcorn, and ice cream. The staff was attentive to any need that came up. I hope we have our future retreats at this location.

My company brought 35 people there for 3 days and it was wonderful! We had the entire ranch solely for our group. First, it’s fantastic to have lodging, meeting rooms, and food & drink all in one place. You don't waste time traveling from your hotel to the meeting place to dinner to your hotel every day. You don't worry... More

We held an annual nursing retreat at Purple Sage for the first time and definitely want to return next year for that. The staff was great to work with and so pleasant. The accomodations were very comfortable, food very good and the grounds well kept. It was so easy to get to from San antonio.

Thanks to all of the staff at Purple Sage, our overnight visit was productive, yet relaxing. Purple Sage is the perfect place for any type of event, whether it be a wedding, reception, corporate meeting, team building, etc., they can set the ambiance for you.

We stayed at Purple Sage Resort in May 2012 for a high school reunion and had a fabulous, fun time. Lon and Tammi Yaeger, the GM's, provided an outstanding setting for the group to relax and regroup. The food at the resort was exceptional, with each dish personally prepared by Chef Rheinhard. The individual villas are charming, western style cottages.... More
