The ideal location of Cielo Rio Ranch puts our community within easy reach of some of the best the scenic Texas Hill Country has to offer, including San Antonio, Bandera, Boerne, Kerrville and Fredericksburg. They are all just minutes away from the ranch’s front gate.

SAN ANTONIO
San Antonio is the second largest city in Texas, seventh in the US. Its Air Force bases and Fort Sam Houston make it Military City USA. Its military medical and other facilities make the area a great place for veterans. Proximity to the southern border makes the city a Gateway to Mexico for business and vacation fun. It’s home to great public and private universities. Sports fans follow the NBA’s San Antonio Spurs, the WNBA’s Silver Stars and the San Antonio Missions minor league baseball team. Excellent golf courses abound. San Antonio Medical Center - offers a large complex of some of the nation’s best hospitals, out-patient treatment centers, rehab and therapy centers-- all less than an hour from Cielo Rio.
