Overall the cabin was amazing and we will be booking again for our next stay in the area. My only complaint was that the communication for all the checkin and out process be together in a single channel of communication, not email and several texting numbers. Would highly recommend this place.

This property is wonderful! The entrance sneaks up on you a little and the road leading to the house is a little steep, but once you get to the top the views are amazing. The space is homey and the fire pit is perfect for roasting smores and looking at stars. The kitchen is well stocked with plates and cooking necessities and the table was perfect for a game night. We were able to use their projector and screen downstairs to watch a movie and I recommend bringing a Bluetooth speaker to connect to as well to make the sound a bit better. Over all it was a wonderful stay!

Friends getaway

We loved this place! The porch is amazing- fantastic views and plenty of seating. Our group of 8 adults cooked all our meals at the house and ate on the porch. The house is well kept and in a great location.

Clean and fairly well stocked kitchen. There were no BBQ grill tools but we made do with kitchen metal tongs. The property is pet friendly. The views from the property are breathtakingly beautiful. We loved the dark skies filled with stars at night. Beds were comfortable. The TV situation lacks a lot to be desired as it is upstairs and I was not able to get it to work, however it wasn't missed. There was a well water issue that started one day before we were scheduled to leave. The House started smelling lie rotten eggs so bad we had to check out early. Owner says it is fixed now. I truly hope so because it would be a shame not to stay here again.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the well-stocked kitchen, the beautiful views, the dark skies, and the comfortable beds. We also appreciate your flexibility with the BBQ tools, and they have since been replaced. We’re very sorry about the well-water issue on the last day of your stay. Hill Country well water can occasionally have a slight sulfur smell, but it’s very uncommon — and in this case, the owner has confirmed the issue has been fully resolved. We truly hope you’ll consider staying with us again so you can enjoy the property without any interruptions. Thank you again for choosing to stay with us!
