The home is great for a large group. The kitchen was spacious, and the dining area has a beautiful view. If you want a peaceful location, this is it. The 2 decks provide extra living space and a place to gather. We have already started to plan another trip.

We’ve come back to MVL for the last 5 years. We love the home and the location. We’ve seen the water be anything from a trickle to a flood but it never disappoints. I was sad that Kermit no longer owned the home because we’ve always had a great experience with him but Danielle was just as awesome. We will continue to come back and make memories! Thanks for another great year!

This is our third year at the property and it's amazing every time! Made even better by the new deck the new owners installed. Highly recommend for a nice quiet weekend in the hill country.

We have enjoyed every visit to Moutain View Lodge during the last 13 years. The new owner's back deck renovation is an amazing addition to an already outstanding vacation destination. Everything we needed was in place when we arrived.

This place fits our needs nicely. It’s secluded and has a fantastic swimming hole. The house is clean and comfy with a big deck overlooking a fabulous view. You’ll get your exercise going up and down the hill to the river.

We had such a wonderful family weekend at this beautiful cottage! My husband and I brought our two teenagers, and it was the perfect place to get away, slow down, and enjoy some quality time together.The house was spacious, very clean, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The crystal-clear water was literally just steps from the back porch, and it was so clear that we could see the fish swimming below.What we enjoyed most was the peace and quiet and simply being surrounded by nature. We saw deer, a roadrunner, and so many different kinds of birds throughout our stay. The evenings were probably our favorite—we made s’mores around the fire pit while watching the stars, and the sunsets were absolutely beautiful.It was such a peaceful and relaxing weekend for our family and a wonderful break from the everyday rush. We left with great memories and would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a quiet getaway surrounded by beautiful scenery and wildlife. We would happily stay here again!

Description was spot on. The house was great plenty of room. Wi-Fi worked. Five minute walk down to the water and the creek was actually running. We caught plenty of little fishies in the swimming hole. Cooked on the barbecue and enjoyed the amazing view and the peaceful serenity. Thank you so much for sharing your home! We fully intend to make this a yearly stay.
