We had the most amazing time here. The kids loved the pool and treehouse and the adults loved EVERYTHING!!. We all slept comfortably and we’re close to local attractions with many things to do.
This was one of the best properties that we have stayed at. The house was very clean and well stocked. It was very accessible and a close drive to many things. We will definitely stay here again.
This is the second time we have stayed on this property and absolutely love it. The house is clean, comfortable, and accessible. The owners are nice and engaging as needed. We will definitely stay again and cannot wait to go in the summer to utilize the pool.

Really nice place. Very clean and it had everything we needed. The great room, porch, and pool area were awesome. Highly recommend it, and will return.

The stay was perfect! The house is spacious and clean! Directions were clear on check-in/check-out. We enjoyed spending time on the beautiful backporch. Lots of laughs! Thank you!

Overall Good Stay
This place is secluded and tranquil. Our favorite part was the pool. It has a spacious kitchen it the play ground area was fun for the kids. Some things we noticed were we needed additional blankets and they were some available but I felt like they had collected dust and kicked in my allergies other than that it was a fun time and I would come back again.
We spend 2 days in this beautiful home with our sons and their families. The property is perfect for a family getaway, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time here. Everything was as listed. The kids and some of the adults loved the pool. It is much larger than it looks in the photo. Everything in the home was accommodating and clean. We cooked out on the grill and made several meals in the very nice kitchen, as well. The location is perfect for us. We plan to go again!
This property was wonderful! The pool was amazing and the outdoor space was perfect for our grandchildren especially the play area with all the outdoor toys. They never wanted to come inside. The kitchen was great for our group with so much space that we could all be together and no one crowding each other. The beds were comfortable and the house had everything we needed for a relaxing time. We all agreed that we will definitely be back.
We had a wonderful time relaxing in this gorgeous, spacious, wonderfully decorated home. It was everything we were looking for and so much more. The kitchen was fully stocked for cooking and baking. All the switches were labeled with lighting, fans, etc. The kids loved the pool and outdoor games available. The adults loved the patio, fire pit and photo opportunities. Everyone enjoyed the time with nature, deer watching and star gazing. We opted to have more of a staycation and didn’t leave the property but once in our five day visit. The owners did an amazing job of thinking of everything with this home.
House was beautiful! Convenient location if you are planning on visiting SanAntonio, Fredericksburg, SanMarcos and other surrounding
communities.

A slice of heaven!!!
Love everything about this house and yard. The pool is amazing and the views are great. We enjoyed watching the deers come eat after the feeders dropped. All the beds are comfortable. They have thought of everything in this home. This was my second time renting and will return again. So peaceful and relaxing. Highly recommend!!!
This house is gorgeous!!! It’s even better in person. We are a family four and stayed here with our friend (family if 5). We all had a blast! The pool is amazing! It’s bigger then it looks and it’s probably 5 feet in places. The kids swam constantly and we swam at night and watch the starts. The hosts are wonderful. We never saw them but they seemed so sweet we wouldn’t have minded if we had.
This property is GORGEOUS and the home has everything you need for a great time. The kitchen is well stocked and has a crock pot and other necessities that you may need. The home is decorated to perfection with lots of unique details. Guests are greeted with a sign on the gate “caution: nude swimmers”….the owners have a great sense of humor! Lol The pool is clear and cool and plenty of floats and pool toys available. Young swimmers may need life jackets as the pool is about 5 ft deep…some life jackets and puddle jumpers are available. The patio is huge and we spent all of our time outdoors. The property is very kid friendly and has lots of toys and a tree house for play. We saw many deer in the back property and an armadillo too! The grounds are well kept and this place is a photographer’s dream! We brought clothes for family photos and got some shots near the rusty old truck out front and in front of the potting shed. Beds are comfortable and the AC is cold. The owners have thought of everything….they have fans in each room for those that need the noise and wind to sleep. Lots of outdoor spaces to hang out. The front porch is equally as relaxing as the back. Play corn hole and enjoy the fire pit. We couldn’t locate the skewers so we roasted marshmallows in a pan in the oven and they were delicious! The screened in porch is an added bonus and it has a large tv. The only hiccup on our visit was the ants that took over the patio in the evenings and night time. They were coming up for water, I’m sure. The owner was kind and responsive and helped us locate some bug spray in storage area. (Treatment of the grass around the patio/pool area may be necessary.) Overall, I would recommend this property to everyone! We travel Texas a lot and have high expectations for the properties and this one def meets the expectations! I would recommend three nights min and you will not need to leave the property during your stay. It has everything to keep the fan entertained! Just do it!!
We had a wonderful time staying here! We had our whole family with us and enjoyed it so much! The best and most relaxing place, peace and quiet and super clean! We hope to return in November!
