This was like staying in a luxury bird hide with hill-country views. Hiking the dry creek bed was an adventure. We got to relax just sitting on the patio doing bird watching for hours. We enjoyed the rustic games room. We will definitely be back.

Although the cabin was relatively clean there were areas ie freezer, utensils drawers that were very dirty.The pictures shown on Virbo were old and not descriptive of actual conditions present. The outside deck was questionable. Areas felt unsafe and furniture eg swing, broken.If you like birdwatching it was good for that and seeds were provided to refill feedersThere is no water there so walking the riverbed is the only activity. Be careful going down from the cabin the path is very steep and rocky.We feel for the price of 3 nights it just wasn’t worth it. Overall, the cabin needs thorough cleaning ,maintenance and repairs.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your stay did not meet your expectations. Cleanliness is very important to us, and we take all comments seriously. We will review the areas you mentioned with our housekeeping team to ensure our high standards are maintained. As noted in our listing and pre-arrival communications, the creek is seasonal and was dry during your visit. Many guests still enjoy exploring the creek bed, birdwatching, stargazing, and simply relaxing in the peaceful natural setting. We appreciate your kind words about the bird feeders and wildlife viewing. Our cabin is intentionally rustic and located on a natural hillside property, which is why we provide detailed descriptions and photos of the terrain so guests can determine whether it is a good fit for their comfort and mobility needs. We regularly inspect the cabin and outdoor spaces, and we will review the items you mentioned to ensure everything is safe and in good condition. We are proud to have welcomed hundreds of guests over the years and to have earned more than 400 five-star reviews. While we understand that our unique eco-retreat is not the right fit for everyone, we appreciate your feedback and wish you all the best in your future travels.

Weird situation thw Cabin was a great safe place ro stay duing the Ice storm in Texas. We lost cell and internet for 4 days and had a backup with the Fireplace for heat if the power went out as well. Harriot Checked on us a couple.times to see how we were. This is the 4th time weve stayed at the Cabin and if you like remote peacful locations this is it. We will be back hopefully in the summer.

This was our second stay and everything was wonderful as it had been last July. Harriet is most welcoming and friendly and quick to be of any assistance. Saw 8 different varieties of birds at feeders just 8-10 feet from the wonderful rocking chairs on the shaded porch. The cabin is a perfect size for a couple and it had everything we needed. Hope you get back again in the winter to check out more/different bird species.

The host is super responsive. Amenities are top notch. There are total two cabins on the properties; one is the main house and the other is a game room. The property is very clean. There’s also a garden and a river dock at the bottom of the property. The view and the nature are unbeatable. This is about 10 to 15 min drive to Dripping Spring Downtown which has a lot of restaurants and super markets, and about 40 min drive to Fredericksburg and 50 min drive to Marble Falls. We will definitely be back.

About the host

Hosted by Harriet Greenlee

Host profile image
Our family has lived in the hill country since 1984, Midwest transplants and tired of the winters. I am a nature enthusiast, Animal rehabilitator, environmentalist, to name a few. We transformed an overgrazed cattle ranch to a wildlife sanctuary, Fiddlers Green Ranch. We bought Fiddlers Creekside in June 2016 from a close neighbor and transformed it to what it is today. We toast our friend, Clovis Tanner, for the opportunity to carry on his dream of this property, preserving and enhancing its natural beauty.

Why they chose this property

We loved this property and the previous owner, Clovis, for over 20 years. We always told Clovis when he was ready to sell, we'd love first right of refusal. He first approached us in spring of 2015 and as excited as I was, it was not in the budget. In March of 2016 things came together and we were able to take this pristine piece of property and bring it back to its beautiful stature. Now, you have an opportunity to also experience it. Many of the items in the home are truly vintage and belonged to Clovis and will remain there to honor the beautiful spaces he created. Clovis passed about 2 months after we closed on the property. Toast our friend while there, he would have loved the opportunity to meet you! You'll enjoy flipping through a few of his things while there!

What makes this property unique

Countless views from this property will take your breath away! BBQ or lounge on the deck overlooking the creek. Enjoy the stunning garden below the home. Stargaze in one of the best places on earth! This is total privacy and just upstream from Pedernales Falls State Park, 3 miles to the entrance or hike from the property to the park! Vineyards within minutes, or just do NOTHING and float and canoe the creek, or yoga on the decks. Bring your guitar, too. In the cold months enjoy the spectacular fireplace. Read the reviews, I love hearing from others how special this property truly is.
