The house absolutely exceeded our expectations. It was the perfect stay for a perfect weekend. Centrally located to everything you'd want to do in the Hill Country, and so warm and welcoming. Wish we had more time to enjoy all the house had to offer, but we will certainly be back!

We absolutely loved staying here. Check in/out was super easy, the house was super clean and cozy, and the balcony has the most beautiful view. I loved how tucked away the property was and we enjoyed watching the deer/birds come and visit us. I highly recommend this property!!

My hubs and I, along with our dog, really enjoyed this quiet place. It felt pretty secluded, and was decorated really cozy. And it was so clean! We cooked just a little and the kitchen had quite a few items to help out. We didn't do much outside of walks and visit the lake, as this home provided us space and place to relax and chill. There was a binder put together containing attractions and things to do should one want to journey out and about. I would enjoy staying here again!

Perfect little getaway

We loved staying at this quaint, cozy house tucked into the hills. It had gorgeous views and although we had neighbors nearby the trees gave us privacy and quiet. We will definitely be staying here again.

Beautiful, peaceful and unique property! We loved our stay. It was very relaxing. Deer, hummingbirds, and even little kittens were on the property. The only negative thing would be the driveway had pretty sharp corners and was hard to get in/out in an F250. But still was possible. We loved our stay and would stay again.
