Premiere Texas Hill Country Resort & Two Dot Ranch
Stand atop one of the highest points in all of San Antonio and cast your gaze upon the breathtaking Texas Hill Country: an endless expanse of majestic Live Oak groves interrupted only by creamy white limestone outcroppings and emerald fairways. Here sits the highly decorated Westin La Cantera Resort, a distinctive retreat for business and leisure travelers alike.
It's the ultimate blend of recreation and luxury: six pools, three hot tubs, health club and spa services, tennis courts, delightful dining, a kids club and flexible, spacious meeting space. But the star attraction is most certainly the golf: 36 holes of handicap-testing bliss, anchored by the 18-hole championship Resort Course at La Cantera, designed by noted golf course architect Jay Morrish and PGA Tour professional Tom Weiskopf. Adjacent to this stunner is ThePalmer Course at La Cantera designed by the master himself, Arnold Palmer.
PLUS this year we're invited by our industry own - Byron and Sandra Sadler to their Two Dot Ranch. A 3500 acre ranch adjacent to the legendary YO Ranch and was at one time part of the original YO Ranch. The YO Ranch sprang from a young man's dream and his single-minded determination. In 1852, at the age of 14, Charles A. Schreiner staked his first claim in the rugged country of the Edwards Plateau in the Texas hill country. In the Civil War’s aftermath, Captain Schreiner, using Texas Longhorns as a foundation, began amassing an empire that included 566,000 acres of ranchland. In 1914, he divided his holdings among his eight children.
When Charlie III took the reins on the YO in the early 1950s, he established a registry for Texas Longhorns and brought the legendary breed back from the brink of extinction.
He also introduced exotic wildlife to the ranchlands, and proved these animals could thrive outside their native homelands thereby creating another lucrative industry for Texas’ landowners; Texas Exotic Hunting!
With our selection of exotic animals, it’s not uncommon here on the Two Dot Ranch to see over 25 species ofanimals in a day while participating in some of the best world class hunting of exotic and indigenous species available.
