Gorgeous getaway for a long weekend

This house was perfect for my kids and parents. The pool is beautiful and the sunset views are fantastic. We even made s’mores down by the fire pit. My husband did have to go buy wood so that is something to think about purchasing before you head out there. We also bought containers with lids for food we had left over since we cooked a lot. There was an incident with ants both upstairs and downstairs so I hope the pest control takes care of that. Close enough to New Braunfels if you want to spend a day at schlitterbahn. I would definitely return to this house. My girlfriends already want to have a girls weekend there!

Fall break getaway

The house is nice and away from neighbors. The pool is awesome, hot tub included. When I arrived the grill was found toppled over (possibly due to T-storms) had to pick it up and re-assemble the grates and burners. Luckily the grill still worked as our plan was to use it. The upstairs primary suite double doors that lead to the upstairs balcony were also found wide open when we arrived and carpet was damp(again, possible T-storms and wind.) The house has 3 rooms total, we used both rooms downstairs. The host arrived during our stay to check upstairs room carpet, which was ok with us. That room did have a wet smell, especially on morning of checkout. Overall it was a nice stay and weekend getaway. You get nice views, sun sets are awesome.

Relaxing Weekend

The house was wonderful but it is the pool and backyard views that are the real attraction here. What a perfect place to enjoy a cup of coffee and listen to the birds chirping and the water fountains in the pool.

Lovely Hill Country Property

The property was easy to find and views are gorgeous. There were four of us ( two couples) that stayed for five days. The weather was hot and we thoroughly enjoyed relaxing in the pool.The pool is really nice and has a hot tub and infinity edge to look over. We were visited daily by redbirds and saw a few deer walk past the fence. The house was clean and had all the essentials you need. We grilled sausages on the gas grill. We bought all we needed at the local grocery. We had one question on the tv and the owner was quick to answer our call and help us. The property is in a good location for day trips in the area. We highly recommend and would stay again.

Christmas Getaway!

Great location far enough from the hustle and bustle but close enough to town. Very well kept home with gorgeous views! The main reason we rented this location was for the hot tub since we came in December. Unfortunately it was not working but the owner did try to get it working and did give us a refund after not being able to do so. Communicated with us promptly which was appreciated.

Beautiful area

Love the place. Pool was the main attraction of the place. I hope they have a vacuum available because the sofa and living room floor had existing crumbs. Wish there’s kitchen seasoning to use. But overall thank you for letting us rent the place. Love the house and pool. The view was phenomenal.!

Weekend getaway

This property was a nice and relaxing getaway for our family, and our kids really enjoyed the pool. The natural scenery is beautiful overall. The house was clean except for a coffee stain in the master bedroom. The only issue I had was the questioning about a wooden spoon missing from the stove top in the kitchen (which was never there when we arrived) and the natural wooden grain on the living room table that was considered “a massive scratch” (as the maid put it). There seems to be an issue with housekeeping keeping track of inventory and keeping accurate records of the furniture. If they were doing their job correctly they wouldn’t have missed the coffee stain in the master bedroom and they would understand the difference between a scratch and the natural woodwork on a table. I would say just be sure to take pictures or record a video to cover your end.
