My first Vrbo experience mini house was pretty much what I expected clean functional serve the purpose thought the price was a little bit high saw others in the 80-90 range. I think that wouldโve been more appropriate but overall very satisfactory stay

We have so many beautiful birds out here. We are so pleased that they put on a show for you. We would be pleased to host you again should comeback our way.
Cute little cabin. Loved the scent of the soap and cleaning products. Pro tip: be sure to bring everything you need for the kitchen including your own salt, pepper, and coffee because nothing is provided (would have helped me to know this in advance). Wish we could have used the fire pit but there was a burn ban in effect. Looked like a nice part of the property.

Thank you for your thoughtful and detailed review! Weโre so glad you enjoyed the cozy cabin and even noticed the scent of the soaps and cleaning products, thatโs such a compliment! We also really appreciate the feedback about kitchen basics like salt, pepper, and coffee. Thatโs helpful insight, and weโll look at making that clearer in our listing so future guests can plan accordingly. Weโre sorry you werenโt able to use the fire pit due to the burn ban, it really is a special spot on the property when conditions allow. Weโd love to host you again when you can fully enjoy everything the cabin has to offer!
Yay Virginia! Thank you so much for staying with us and for taking the time to share your experience. We appreciate and value your feedback. You were a delight to have and we look forward to hosting you again soon!

Clean inside. Outdoors is natural with the environment. The wind knocked acorns off the trees, the wind blew outside and created a nice breeze, the sun shone so bright that it was nice to take refuge in the gazebo: delightful!

Thank you for sharing such a beautiful description of your stay! Weโre glad you appreciated the clean interior and the natural outdoor setting. It sounds like the breeze and sunshine made for a truly delightful and peaceful experience, especially relaxing in the gazebo. Weโd love to welcome you back to enjoy the serenity again soon!
Loved the place! It was clean fun and in a beautiful location!
The only issue I had was that it is a little pricy for how far away it is from everything. Other than that it was an amazing place to stay!

The location is remote and quiet. My son and I enjoyed our short stay. We would have liked better pillows, but every thing else was fine.

So glad you enjoyed the tiny cabin vibes! Great news โ we've upgraded the WiFi with Starlink since your stay, making it even better. But hey, if you're up for a digital detox, this spot's still perfect for unplugging. Cheers to a fantastic stay and many more unplugged adventures!
We really enjoyed our short stay. We had a wedding close by & this place was perfect for us. Very cute, clean & was a quiet place to sit and see the stars after the wedding. ๐

Great location that is not too far from Dripping Springs and the facilities are awesome. Nice to sit outside at night with our group of friends or early in the morning. Beds were very comfortable and everything was well supplied.

The place was nice. The hotplate was not working at all and it took an hour to cook four slices of bacon and scramble four eggs. Also bring your own pillows as the pillows downstairs we very old and flat. Everything else was fine!

Very nice and quiet. No phone service on the property at all. You have to drive down the road about 2 miles to get service. Wi-Fi is very weak as well "Hill Country Network" is a know problem. Overall I will be back. Loved the room very cozy.

We chose to stay in a cabin vs renting a hotel room. It was definitely the better decision. We were in town for a wedding in the area. The cabin was clean and had just enough space for our family of 4. The only thing that would have been helpful would be a hook or something to hang clothes. I improvised and it worked out, ok. The girls enjoyed playing, while we sat and had coffee on the porch. It was perfect for what we needed. We would stay again!

Thank you for sharing your experience! We're thrilled to hear that choosing a cabin over a hotel room was the better decision for your stay. It's wonderful that the cabin was clean, provided just enough space for your family of four, and offered a pleasant porch for coffee and relaxation.
We appreciate your feedback about the need for a hook to hang clothes, and we'll certainly take that into consideration for future improvements. We're glad you were able to improvise and that overall the stay was perfect for your needs.
We would be delighted to welcome you back for another stay! If you have any more suggestions or if there's anything else we can assist you with in the future, please feel free to let us know.
