The property was perfect for a weekend getaway. Easy access to new braunfels and winery, but far enough away from town to have a quiet night alone.

We loved the house and enjoyed the stay. We had an issue with the water when we got there but the management team fixed it asap. They did a great job. The property is still in the construction phase. We did not mind that but some might. All around it was a good stay.

We enjoyed our stay at this beautifully furnished home. It was clean and plenty of space for us. The resort is not finished but I’m sure it will be lovely when it is. Jacob was attentive to our needs and came out to help us when we got locked out of the house. Overall a good weekend.

The cabin and location of the property is great as well as the community concept in development. The property itself was very unique and welcoming for our family. We really enjoyed our vacation! Our only complaint was a hot water issue with the showers which we contacted the host about only to be met with some resistance. I pleaded to have the issue investigated and fixed after our first night notifying the host that we would be away for the entire day giving plenty of time to accommodate and hoping for the issue to be resolved. The host agreed to investigate and confirmed the issue but offered a tactical work around for one of the showers and adjusting the valve while admitting that the other shower would need a replacement part to be installed. The issue was not resolved and I was forced to endure another incredibly cold shower for a second night in a row. There was never a mention of remorse any any offer to compensate for this bad experience. Upon further investigation on this property, this issue was mentioned in a review over 6 months ago leading me to believe that those tenants concerns were probably dismissed and yet the issue had not been corrected since then. Overall, my family enjoyed the stay but we would hope for the showers to actually function properly if we were to consider another stay.

We enjoyed our stay August 17-19. The cabin was cute and great for 6 guests. The a/c kept up decently with temperatures over 100 degrees. The only complaint was lack of hot water in the master bathroom.
We would stay here again.
