We have stayed here twice over the last year and had a wonderful experience both times. Great location, beautiful views, and responsive owners. Can't wait to come back again.

Outstanding! Anyone would enjoy this amazing home in the Hill Country!

This is a long overdue published review of our numerous stays at what has become a true getaway 'home' for us. From a romantic weekend for two, to a rambunctious gathering of family around the outdoor fire and pavillion; bringing others for a time of healing and restoration; soaking up sun in the pool and enjoying many meals outdoors watching glorious sunsets....memories have been made here! The house is fab - comfy with all the amenities needed to feel appropriately 'pampered' yet still out in the country. If there is a prob, Jennifer always responds personally. Walking the property, feeding deer, looking for critters, stargazing, bike riding the hills, and simply sitting and enjoying the quiet make us never want to leave. Not to mention everything going on if you DO leave the property! :) we are always looking forward to the next time....

It COULD be a great place, but several issues needed attention & one major issue changed our opinion from fairly good to horrible.

The 1st thing we saw was 5 bags of garbage in the carport. If the prior guest didn’t follow instructions & haul the garbage to the front gate, why didn’t the cleaning crew? Then we saw the pool…w/ leaves throughout. The pool net had huge holes in it, rendering it useless. There were no instructions for the pool, but we turned on the pump to circulate the water. We cleaned the skimmer baskets, which were full of debris. We noticed several pots, two Texas-shaped concrete pavers, & a lounge chair all broken but sitting around the pool area. Why not remove the broken decor?

We entered the living room to find men’s flip flops (again, if prior guest left these, why not remove them before the next guests arrive?) There were many broken/missing drawer pulls in the kitchen. Also, the front bedroom is especially dark, so having no bulbs in the wall sconces made it even darker. There were no bulbs to fit located on property. The views are beautiful but would have been more enjoyable to see through CLEAN windows. The place needs a thorough cleaning.

We got ready to cook that evening & realized photos on the internet (showing several nice-sized grills) were no reflection of what was actually on property, a very small round charcoal grill.

The next day we realized my niece had contracted a rash (HOT TUB FOLLICULITUS, diagnosed after our departure - treated w/ antibiotics.) We learned when the pool tech came for his weekly (not daily) maintenance that the pool & hot tub had NO CHLORINE. After learning of my niece’s rash, he drained the hot tub for cleaning later. He added chemicals to the pool, left, & returned in 2 hours to test before giving the “go ahead” to swim again.

My correspondences w/ Jennifer (owner) left me w/ the impression that she just wasn’t concerned about the lack of sanitation in the pool/hot tub. So instead of feeling assured that sanitation issues are being handled properly, I have come away w/ the impression they aren’t.

In spite of everything, my family chose to enjoy each other’s company, making the best of the situation. Had the sanitation issue not occurred, we could have overlooked the other items. We feel this place has GREAT potential and hope proper maintenance becomes a priority to the owners so it can be.

One note (no bearing on rating) we came across 2 scorpions in the house - wear shoes.

We escaped to the Hill Country for a birthday celebration & the house was perfect for a weekend of relaxation! The pool and views are fantastic, and the outdoor living space was our favorite part of the house. Our group had so much fun that we're thinking about making it an annual trip!

Comfortable stay with beautiful views of the Hill Country. Can't beat the outdoor living space and pool!

We took a weekend getaway at this location and it was well worth it. The views were spectacular and the location felt quite secluded, although still close to wineries, restaurants, and grocery shopping.

The house was nicely updated, roomy, and with everything we needed.

... Our only issue was that our weekend was too short! We could easily have stayed here another week...

What a gorgeous place! The pictures do not do it justice. The outdoor pavilion was the perfect gathering place. It provided great shelter during a raging Texas thunderstorm, but still allowed us to enjoy the hill country lightening show by a cosy fire. The beds were all very comfortable and clean, and the on-site laundry came in handy as well.
We have already recommended this place to a few friends, and hope to come back again soon. The rate was very affordable for a weekend get-away.
The owner emailed us ahead of time to let us know there was nobody ahead of us, or after, so we could come before 3 on Friday, and leave late on Sunday. Very generous with the time slot.
