I would like to give this place a terrible review so it’s always available when I want it, but I can’t. This house has a perfect setup for large groups and we can’t wait to go back!
Response from VrboOwner on 23 July 2024
At first glance we were afraid to continue reading what seemed like a bad review. We are happy to hear you had a great time. It is a great home, gives everyone a bit of privacy. Hope to see you soon.

We had a great time at Rustic Tavern. The house was perfect and had plenty of room. The pool was AMAZING! Thought the water would be hot with the high temps we are having but water was cool and relaxing.

This is our first year staying in this house, we absolutely loved it! We had 4 families and loved the idea of the outside rooms! We have some early risers and they could go inside the kitchen for breakfast and coffee without feeling guilty of being loud and waking others up!

This is the 2nd year in a row we stay at the Rustic Tavern for a hunt during New Years timeframe. The only negatives were the a/c in the common area didn't seem to work well as the filter looked to be completely caked. Several of the a/c units in the rooms should be cleaned as everyone's allergies seemed to be really bad after the 1st nights stay.
Response from VrboOwner on 30 May 2022
Thank you for staying with Frio River Vacation Rentals and reviewing our house. I hope you had a successful hunt. As you probably are aware, Mountain Cedar Pollen is extremally high this time of year. You can actually see it floating in the air when the wind gusts. Because of this, we do clean are A/C units on a regular basis.

We enjoyed our stay at the Rustic Tavern and enjoyed the layout of the house. The living room and kitchen being seperate from the rooms made it comfortable for everyone to sleep peacefully when they wanted. Great surround system outside, 2 large tvs outside, volleyball net and tether ball made it easy to have a good time together. The only downside was there were no bed sheets or pillowcases which I was unaware of, but it was stated in the email I just missed it. Overall it was a great time and we were all pleased with our stay here!

Reviewer Comments:
The back right bathrooms sink had super low water pressure, almost at a trickle. Checked everything we could to no avail. The air return/filter was totally caked with dust as it was last year at this time. On the house the surface was relatively clean but it could use a deep cleaning around edges of stove, dishwasher, in couch, etc.... as it is really dirty.
Response from VrboOwner on 3 Feb 2024
All of our homes are professionally cleaned between each stay. I'm sorry if something got missed, and our head of housekeeping has been informed of this issue.

Reviewer Comments:
Our house was dirty when we arrived, we could clearly see that cleaning was not done. The kitchen had limited pots and pans and the ones that were there were old, teflon falling off when cooking and all the food sticks to pan. No plasticware and the layout of the house was different than described. The bedrooms are outside the main house including the restroom. The beds were hard and not comfortable. The pool was dirty, the light kept coming out of the wall.
Response from VrboOwner on 25 June 2024
Thank you for your review, Elda. I'm sorry you felt mislead, but the house is a hacienda style home with the bedrooms arranged around the courtyard as shown in the pictures online. Our pools and homes are professionally cleaned between each and every stay, and then they are inspected to ensure they are ready for our guests.

House was perfect for 3 -4 large families. Beds were comfortable but the blankets that were left looked like they were 30 years old. It was not the cleanest and certainly not kept up like it should or could be with things most people would expect in vacation home. The pool was dirty and there was no way to clean because the net was ripped out on pole and the jets barely circulated the water. The air vents were disgusting and that was something that could have easily been prevented. We were not told the washer and dryer were broken and unavailable which would not have changed our reservations but would have changed what we packed so it would have been nice if someone told us ahead of time but no one did. The BBQ pit is more like a smoker and the grate was so high, it made it very difficult to BBQ food. These things were all very preventable but clearly ignored by the management. The best feature of this house was room set up/privacy for each family and the surround sound indoor/outdoor radio. House had a lot of potential but looks like it has been ignored and mismanaged
