We stayed for 3 days and loved it. Very comfortable and so antique looking and just plain adorable. Our fur baby loved the yard and Deb even left him a toy and some treats! Will definitely go back again.

Date Trip

Our stay was very enjoyable. The house is so cute. We loved the decor it felt like home. I love how the house is tucked away for a little bit more privacy. Our host was very kind and communicated quickly with us.

Perfect Hill Country Retreat

We loved our stay so much and will definitely stay again when we return the area. The house exceeded my expectations. It had everything we could need and was the cutest eclectic mix of antiques and soul. I would love to go shopping with Deb! Deb had great communication. Great location!

Loved it!

“Ethyl’s Place” was even more charming than advertised. Just less than a mile from the heart of downtown Blanco, it sat perched full of character and full of history. There is an awesome back-story of the restoration process of the house that the Homeowner shares and invites you to be a part of.“Ethy’s Place” was intimate, cozy and the perfect place to lay low with loved ones for a few days. Will definitely be back!

Great experience

The property was so charming and cozy. The bed was super comfortable. Our host was great to work with and even gave us a refund on our first night because we weren't able to make it because of car trouble. We would definitely stay there again.

Great place to “chill”!

We loved this house … so cute and cozy! Love the history and the location is perfect … right off of Main Street and just a couple of miles from the town square. Deb is a great host and the house has everything you might need.
