A Great Place to visit...
Hondo sits in the midst of some of the most beautiful vacation and leisure settings in Texas, within close proximity to many top recreation sites, such as Garner State Park. San Antonio, a half-hour drive away, is one of the State’s top destination centers and home of the Alamo and famed San Antonio RiverWalk, offering visitors numerous cultural and theatrical events.

Hondo means “deep” in Spanish and derives its name from Hondo Creek. Providing an enticing transition into the famous Texas Hill Country which runs along Highway 173, Hondo is in the heart of fine game hunting ranches and properties featuring native and exotic wildlife.
