The stay was wonderful! A beautiful updated property. We would definitely stay here again. Great value and location. We enjoyed the jacuzzi under the stars. Very clean house. A wonderful setup for privacy.
Nice place. Little far from Fredericksburg but we were exploring all of Johnson City so get location.

So glad you enjoyed your stay! We are 16 minutes from the 290 wine trail to do wine tours, as they are all between Fredericksburg and Johnson City. It’s a little further to Fredericksburg proper. Come back and stay with us soon!
The house smelled like it was brand new when we arrived. We especially liked the backyard with its hot tub and gas fire pit. The bed was very comfortable, and we really liked the the choices of restaurants Blanco had to offer
The property was as advertised. The property was clean, well-maintained and in a location just off the main square in town. We could easily walk to restaurants and the square. The house adequately stocked with necessities and provided a good base for our time in the Hill Country.

This is what we strive for! Come back and see us while the Hill Country is covered in bluebonnets and wild flowers. Everyone loves the 290 wine trail that time of year, March - May!
We loved this house. It's convenient to the places we wanted to go, and it's also off the beaten path, so pretty quiet and not a lot of traffic, which is great when you have small kids. The flat-top grill is NICE, too!

This house was super clean! I loved the layout and the beds were very comfy! The neighborhood was quiet and easy to navigate. We stayed with puppies so the fenced in yard was great! We would definitely stay here again!!

So glad you enjoyed! Hope to host you again soon! Look out for the discounted rates for repeat guest we sent you!
Amazing place at such a fantastic value! My parents and spouse and I stayed here during our excursions around the hill country. It was the perfect central location from which to take day trips to Austin, Fredericksburg, and San Antonio (each only about an hour drive away from the VRBO). The town itself is also very small and cute with everything you need, from a grocery store, coffee shop, restaurants, and a small state park with an area for swimming in nice weather (we took out our kayaks and paddled around). The VRBO itself was impeccably clean and lovely, freshly remodeled. And the beds were all very comfortable memory foam mattresses. The back yard area was also nice for sitting and sipping coffee in the morning. There was a grill and hot tub that we did not use. We would return here in a heartbeat for a family getaway! It was the perfect stay.
We had to extend our stay because a group member was ill. The process to do that through the app was a little weird, but the property manager was very helpful and walked us through it for a seamless stay. The house is very nice, on a quiet street, but convenient to all the places we wanted to go.nice. An

We’re so glad we were able to assist with extending your stay. I’m glad you enjoyed the property and proximity to attractions! Come back and see us soon
So glad you enjoyed your stay! Sorry we had some rain which delayed the lawn service during your stay (and also caused a growth spurt in the grass). The lawn is mowed and ready for enjoyment!
We were on a state park trip, visiting as many state parks as we could in 3 days. We stayed at this house and it was perfect! Very clean and probably less than a mile to to park! We weren’t there long but it was a good night sleep and showers. But would be perfect for a family trip. Huge living room and kitchen. There’s was a hotvtub but we didn’t have time to explore.

Also close to Perdnales State Park for hiking and bear Canyon Lake!
Convenient to both Pedernales and Guadalupe State Parks for hiking and Dripping Springs and Wimberley for shopping.
The house was more than enough for the two of us. It was clean, quiet, comfortable, affordable, with a relaxed updated style, and easy and quick communication with property managers, made this trip relaxing and enjoyable. I also appreciated the house numbers on the garage and side entry had a light above them as if I recall correctly the street was dark.
The town square and restaurants and shops are cute and we enjoyed a bite to eat at Texas Cannon Brewery, Buchanans Coffee, OroBianco Italian Creamery in Blanco as well as Tillie’s at Camp Lucy in Dripping Springs and the Texas Hill Country Olive Oil Company.
Our only regret was not scheduling downtime to sit and roast s’mores around the fire pit on the back patio at least once!
