Prairie Chapel Ranch, Ranch property in Crawford, Texas.
Prairie Chapel Ranch is a farm property near Crawford, Texas, that includes several limestone residential buildings, a pond, and open fields. The layout of the structures follows the gently rolling topography of the area.
The property was acquired by George W. Bush in 1999 and served as an informal residence during his presidency from 2001 to 2009. During that period, he received heads of state there and coordinated political matters.
The residence takes its name from a small 19th-century chapel that once stood on the grounds. On quiet mornings, visitors might notice how native grassland borders the surrounding pastures.
The grounds are a private residence and normally not open to the public. Those interested in this part of Texas can explore the surrounding rural roads and nearby towns.
Geothermal systems supply heating and cooling for the main building, reducing energy consumption noticeably. The installation was completed alongside the construction of the living spaces in the late 1990s.
