  • What Is It Like to Bring a Group to a Ranch Retreat
    10 Nov 2026
    What is it like to bring a group to a ranch retreat? For your group, it feels like the whole place is yours — 1,200 private acres in East Texas, no strangers, no competing crowds, just the people you came with and the room to spread out and breathe. In this episode, I walk you through exactly what you can expect when you bring your people to Dead Cat Ranch near Palestine, Texas, so you can picture your own group here before you ever pick up the phone. I'm Stacy Betts, and this ranch started as my dad's place more than 40 years ago. The honest truth is, this whole thing began because family and friends kept coming out, loving their time here, and telling us we had something worth sharing. That's the story I lean on in this episode — because it's the same thing we see today in more than 50 five-star reviews and guests who come back again: groups leave with a renewed perspective and a real sense of connection. You'll hear how a whole-ranch retreat actually works for planners — one private group at a time, the three cabins, two Airstreams, and the bunkhouse all yours, with fishing, pools, hot tubs, trails, and outdoor games included and the freedom to set your own pace. Whether you're organizing a corporate retreat, a family reunion, a community gathering, or a creative production, you'll get a clear, honest picture of the experience. When you're ready to talk through your group and your dates, give me a call at 903-372-0728. Come out and relax, play, and stay at Dead Cat Ranch.

  • Things to Do Near Palestine Texas for a Group
    2 Nov 2026
    Things to do near Palestine, Texas for a group — that's exactly what we're walking through on this episode, because once you've got your people together in East Texas, you'll want a plan that keeps everybody happy. I'm Stacy Betts, and we run Dead Cat Ranch, a private 1,200-acre group venue in Palestine, in the heart of Anderson County. So let's talk about what the area actually offers when you're bringing a whole group. The star of the show around here is the Texas State Railroad — a classic ride through the East Texas woods that works for nearly every age and group type. In wintertime, that same railroad becomes the Polar Express, and we love welcoming folks connected to that train each season. Beyond the rails, Palestine shines in dogwood season, when the whole region fills up with blooms and there's an easygoing, small-town charm that makes group outings simple. I'll also share how we sponsor and take part in community events here every year, so you'll get an honest, local feel for what it's like to plan a getaway in our corner of Texas. The best part? When your group rents Dead Cat Ranch, the whole property is yours — no strangers, no sharing — so you can plan day trips into town and still have a quiet, wide-open place to come home to. Rejuvenation, connecting with nature, and a fresh perspective are all part of it. When you're ready to plan your group's visit to Palestine, give us a call at 903-372-0728 and let's talk through your dates. Come out and relax, play, and stay at Dead Cat Ranch.

  • Corporate Retreat Venue Near Tyler Texas
    26 Oct 2026
    Looking for a corporate retreat venue near Tyler, Texas? In this episode, we walk you through what it looks like to bring your whole team to Dead Cat Ranch, a private 1,200-acre getaway just down the road in Palestine, East Texas — rented to one group at a time, with no strangers sharing the property. If you're the person planning your company's next offsite, this one's for you. I'm Stacy Betts, and here at Dead Cat Ranch we built everything around a simple framework: relax, play, and stay. In this episode, we talk through how that framework fits a corporate retreat — how the whole ranch becomes yours when your team comes out, and what that means for the way your people connect. When you rent the ranch, all of it is yours: the three cabins, two Airstreams, and the bunkhouse, plus the room to spread out and gather on your own terms. You'll hear how included activities like fishing, the pools, hot tubs, trails, and outdoor games help a team unwind, and how add-on experiences like UTV rides, horseback riding, and classes can take the day further. We're an easy drive from Tyler and the surrounding East Texas region, which makes us a natural fit for a corporate retreat that boosts morale, sparks fresh ideas, and strengthens how your team works together. You'll have reliable cell service in the main area and the freedom to set your own pace. When you're ready to plan your group's retreat, give us a call at 903-372-0728 and let's talk through your dates and what you have in mind. Come out and relax, play, and stay at Dead Cat Ranch.
