I don't know who was happier...people or the pets! The freedom to walk on the ten acres that lead to the river was so refreshing! Highly recommend.

Thank you so much for your amazing review! It makes us so happy to hear that both the people and the pets had such a great time. There’s something special about having space to roam, stretch your legs, and wander down to the river. We’re so glad you were able to enjoy the ten acres and soak in that refreshing freedom. Thank you for the recommendation. We’d be thrilled to welcome you (and your furry friends!) back anytime!
The property is unique. Dome House is interesting, fun and very comfortable. Lots of enjoyable outdoor spaces. The river front patio was the best. It had nice steps into the river. Beautiful, would like to go back.

House was very liveable and back porch area was my favorite. The river is a good distance from the house so be prepared to walk! River area is gorgeous and very private. Great for a long weekend, birthday getaway.

Thank you for your review! We’re glad you found the house comfortable and loved the back porch. Great tip about the walk to the river—it’s definitely worth it for the privacy and beauty. We’d be happy to host you again for your next getaway!
We loved every bit of nature especially the wide open field that led to the private river. Everything was close by including Wimberley downtown and HEB. Highly recommended!

My family and I had such a lovely time at the Dome. It was exactly as advertised and we loved being away from the city to re connect. Our kids loved playing in the river and we enjoyed cooking s’mores over the fire!

We enjoyed our time here. The walk to the river was 5 minutes & not for the faint of heart. River was low but still nice to sit by.

Thank you for your review! We're glad you enjoyed your time and had a chance to relax by the river, even with the low water levels. The walk to the river can definitely be an adventure! We hope to welcome you back for another stay soon.
My husband brought me here with our 5 year old and 3month old. It was very relaxing and enjoyable. There is a neighbor that seems to live on site, or at least is accessible from the property which I was not aware of.. the river was nice and myself, husband and 5 year old enjoyed playing in it and exploring up and down the river bank. We were a close drive to cypress creek swimming hole so we went there for one of the days which was great! Our puppies really enjoyed themselves also!

This property was unique and secluded, which is what we were looking for. Was very relaxing, spacious and peaceful. Furnishings were clean and comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed. The views and outdoor spaces were very nice. The river was low when we visited, but that is a risk you take; at least the fish were biting!

My wife and I needed some time away from the stress of work and living in the DFW area. We needed a break from the city. We found this property, and the outdoor space and quiet location were just what we were looking for. With short drives to Wimberley, Gruene, and New Braunfels, we were able to enjoy some small hill country towns and experience Wurst Fest in New Braunfels. We had a great long weekend.

Beautiful and secluded property and river. The access to river and with the rock landing was great. The depth of water was a pleasant surprise considering the drought in Texas. The house was nice and comfortable, the kitchen had every thing we needed and the bedrooms were nice and spacious.

Cute house on beautiful property
We really enjoyed our stay at the Dome house. The outdoor area and river front were perfect for lounging and relaxing with family! The house comfortably slept 10 adults. I would not say it comfortably would sleep 12 adults, the sleeper chairs are small and not very comfortable.
Property was not like the pictures. Pictures are AI enhanced. Property interior is very dingy. Dead bugs throughout property. Smells of Mold. Confirmed by the mold spray in the laundry area. Lots and lots of cobwebs. The land and lake access were nice but the house itself was not as expected. Dusty. Outdoor furniture and fire pit need deep cleaning. Spiders found in bed sheets. Left early because we were uncomfortable with the accommodations.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re very sorry to hear that your experience did not meet expectations. We want to assure you that our listing photos are not AI enhanced - they are real images of the property. We’re glad you enjoyed the land and lake access, and we appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention so we can make improvements for future guests.
Spacious house and nice outside areas for entertaining. The fire pit is great for making smores and the lower patio has amazing views. River access is a little walk but once you're at the water there is another patio area perfect for getting ready to float or just relax and fish. With 4 kids and 4 adults the house had plenty of room without feeling cramped. We will definitely be back!
We had a great time, but wish the river had been much closer. It's way too far and steep of a walk for people with children or with disabilities. I wouldn't consider this property to be "riverfront" by any means.

Great property. There was a leak in the ceiling in the entry way. We had to clean it up and put a cooler under it. It was from the rain. When it stopped raining it was fine.
The Dome was a nice quiet getaway. Loved reading on the porch. Home was clean and had everything we needed to cook. We did bring wood for firepit. It was a bit of a walk to the river but the field was beautiful and nice to walk through. We didnt go down much due to the climb back up. Easy but uphill with bad knees.

This property is so beautiful! The private access to a relatively untouched river makes this place a hidden gem. My friends and I absolutely loved this place. The only suggestion would be some potential updates but that really wasn’t a big deal. I was more worried about cleanliness, but the property was very very clean! Be prepared to deal with a few bugs simply because this is located in nature. Overall, very lovely experience. We plan on coming back!
