The cabin and land are wonderful. It's the perfect place to explore and relax. Our dog Jake had a blast smelling all the wildlife scents. My husband enjoyed the hot tub. We definitely want to return for another visit. Highly recommend.

We loved our time at The Outpost. The property is gorgeous, clean, and cozy, with so much history and military memorabilia to explore. This was especially meaningful to our family, as my husband served in the USMC. We loved exploring the trails and enjoying the beautiful hill country. The pristine night sky made for unforgettable stargazing, and seeing the Milky Way was truly magical. You can feel how much the host cares through all the thoughtful touches and helpful details throughout the house. The Outpost is an absolute treasure, and we hope to return soon!

Remote Retreat. Very private except for the wildlife, particularly the variety of birds. Great vista of hills. The house is very functional and comfortable. We appreciated the emphasis on military and first responder service, especially with the recent July 4 and 9/11 events. After several years of trying different homes near Fredericksburg, we have found one to which we want to return.

We loved the Outpost! This was our first stay and will now be a family tradition for many years to come! Felt like home the moment you walked in, loved especially the Military dedications throughout the house! The history of the cabin and artifacts were fascinating. We never turned on the tv nor ate in town once, no need to . There’s so many activities to do or just relax and enjoy the seclusion and views! The Easter Egg hunts and treasure hunt map was fun and can’t wait to do again with the kids next time! If we could we would give it a 20 out of 10 stars! Chrissy & Robby

The cabin was beautiful with amazing views. It was cozy and inviting. The cabin came stocked with everything we needed. Our host was very responsive and very friendly. We loved the area and were not too far from Main St. it’s a very relaxing cabin to unwind at. The swing was my favorite spot listening to the wind chimes enjoying the views. The bed was very comfortable and the large master bath had so much room along with the closet. We will definitely be back to visit this beautiful cabin!

We felt very welcomed immediately. The cabin was absolutely amazing!! From the views in the back of the property and from the very nice seating area complete with fire pit and the hot tub close by. All the amenities you would need for cooking and/grilling. We prepared and made our entire Thanksgiving meal! So grateful for the opportunity to stay at The OutPost. We loved all the military memorabilia and the thoughtfulness put into honoring all of our country’s heroes. We very much enjoyed our stay. We look forward to returning again! Thank you Lori and Mike for your service and for opening your home for others to enjoy.God Bless,The Mata Family

A magnificent weekend at a hidden gem

Our stay at The Outpost was absolutely incredible!! The attention to detail in everything, from the little welcome table and fully stocked kitchen to all the easter eggs hidden around the cabin, was truly amazing. We had such a great time trying to find and solve all the little puzzles, walking down the little trail and enjoying the view while making our own stack of rocks, and playing Scrabble, dominoes, and Operation! The hosts provide everything for you, minus the food, so after a trip to HEB in Fredericksburg, we didn't have to leave the cabin for anything which was perfect for a relaxing weekend. We also never got tired of reading all the first responder stories and honoring their legacy. This cabin is truly a hidden gem, and to make our experience even more amazing, they allowed us to host a small family gathering for our wedding! The views are beautiful and we made a lot of wonderful memories. Thank you Lori and Mike for an unforgettable amazing weekend, and we will definitely stay here again!!

Quiet, secluded, fun place to stay. Incredibly glad we chose this place!

This place was everything we expected and more! The listing very accurately describes this place. Amazing views, quiet seclusion, lots of fun activities available, close to enchanted rock, and a place to make wonderful memories. It had every dish, utensil, appliance, etc. we could possibly need in the kitchen, including lots of consumable items (spices, all the ingredients for s'mores, olive oil, coffee, tea, popcorn, and much more). There were so many useful items for anyone traveling with kids, babies, or dogs. It's very obvious how much thought the owners put into this place. Including all the fun Easter egg puzzles they put together. We were easily able to accomplish our goal of unplugging and unwinding by focusing on the activities provided. We didn't turn on the TV once. Enchanted rock was amazing and only a short drive away. Highly recommend a day trip there for the hiking and awesome views. Then finish the evening with dinner on the back patio while watching the sunset. I truly appreciate the owners' conservation efforts and the educational material provided in the guest guidebook. Plus, there are quite a few nature identification books to peruse. Overall, my only regret is that we didn't get to stay one more day. We were here for 3 nights, and we still ran out of time to solve all the puzzles and checkout every detail of the house.

The Outpost exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived, we could tell how much thought and care had gone into creating such a comfortable and welcoming space. The cabin was spotless, cozy, and had all the little details that made our stay easy and enjoyable.We especially loved how peaceful and quiet it was. Sitting outside taking in the views in the day and the night sky, was easily the highlight of our trip. It felt like the perfect escape—peaceful and secluded, yet still convenient to town.Communication was excellent, and the hosts were friendly and responsive. We had a wonderful experience and would absolutely recommend The Outpost to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.
