Bridlegate History
It was settled in 1867 by former New Yorker, Judge Edward M. Ross, who had fought in Mexican war, then served in 1850's at Camp Verde, army's camel post near Bandera. Daughter Kate Ross, wife of Ebenezer Buck, of a prominent pioneer family, inherited the ranch in 1901. Offering fine foods and hospitality, the Bucks established this as Bandera's first guest ranch in 1920, continuing it until their deaths in 1941. It became a recorded Texas Historic Landmark, 1966.
