I would not recommend this property. Communication was awful and check-in was arduous. The house has hundreds of deferred maintenance issues...like one of the kitchen drawers falls open and was held up with packing tape. We had to wash the dishes before using them. Yuck. There was a long black hair in one of the showers. I wore a pair of white socks one evening and they got filthy on the bottom. A table for four in the kitchen area had a missing chair. Instructions left in the house were outright hostile...listing all the things we could do to incur fines. The carpets were stained. The windows were filthy...one had a big greasy handprint on it. It is clear no one cares about this house. Such a shame.

The property was perfect for our relaxing girls trip get away to the Texas Hill Country. The house has plenty of space and the layout of the patio and pool area was perfect. The location of the house was convenient as it is not very far away from grocery stores and shopping, but it is far enough away to enjoy the beautiful scenery, peace and quiet away from the city.

This was perfect for our family gathering. We had four couples staying in the house and it was ideal for being together in one place yet also allowing each couple their own space. We had perfect weather so we spent a lot of time enjoying the pool area and outdoor porch. Highly recommend!

Perfect for our family group with 4 bedrooms each with own bath-and the pictures are NOT deceiving-it’s huge!! Lovely ground and critters, saw deer and a fox. And yet so close to Austin and family wedding venue.

Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re so happy to hear that the property was perfect for your family and that it lived up to the pictures—it's great that you were able to enjoy the wildlife, like the deer and fox, while being so close to Austin and the wedding venue. We’d love to host you again for another memorable stay!
The house is beautiful but it had a few shortcomings. The outlets in the upstairs bathrooms did not work; the carpet upstairs had stains. There is not enough seating in the breakfast nook. Some of the cups in the cupboard were dirty (dusty—one had a moth in it). On the plus side, the beds were very comfortable, the house otherwise was clean, the pool and outdoor areas are beautiful, very peaceful. We had a great stay overall and the host/hostess was very gracious.

Rented this place for a bday weekend for my 18 year old daughter. It’s great location with great scenery. House clean and would definitely book again and recommend.

Plenty of room for the whole family to relax, work, study, and lounge — together or privately. Every bedroom has a bathroom which was awesome for us all needing to get ready for wedding festivities. I’m especially grateful for the location in a Dark Sky area.

Thank you for the thoughtful feedback! We're so glad your family enjoyed the spacious layout and the convenience of each bedroom having its own bathroom—perfect for those busy wedding preparations. And there's nothing like stargazing in the Dark Sky community to wind down the day. We hope to welcome you all back for more special moments under the stars!
The only downside was that the jets did not work in the Jacuzzi tub, only one pool stick had an actual tip on it and the gate would not close after entering. I would recommend this property to friends and family. Beautiful place!
This place was really nice , the pool was a good size the bedrooms were nice, the dishwasher wasn’t working well, the was a scorpion on the kids bathroom, the coffee machines had mildew on them
This property is huge and sits on several acres. You can not see any neighbors and feel total privacy. The location is fantastic being just minutes away from Dripping Springs, breweries and distilleries. The house had everything we needed. Great for families with kids or a big group.

The house was huge and everyone had their own room and bathroom, which was awesome! The game room was great and so much fun. The pool was dirty and we felt comfortable getting in because the resting water looked suspicious. The grill did not work, there was little propane but the igniter didnt work but we had to cook all the food inside and planned on the grill. The carpet had stains as well from previous pet guests, no smell though. All and all its perfect if you just need a place to crash and a fun way to wrap up your evening. The hose was amazing and let us in early and we had a great time in Driftwood overall.

The House was nice and large with plenty of room/bathrooms for our stay. Backyard patio was awesome. Kitchen had plenty of supplies except trashbags (only 1 provided). Only drawback was that it was older and could use a little updating. Regardless, we had a great time visiting the area's distilleries and wineries.

This house is on a nice quiet area. Big and spacious for all our guests. Near all fun activities from San Marcos to Austin which we did for our Labor day weekend. The only thing about the home I can say is that it needs a deep, deep cleaning. Carpet needs to be replaced, fresh paint and some décor needs updating like window curtains. Overall the home is nice for our short getaway.

BEUTIFUL PLACE. REINDEER ALL AROUND.
GREAT UPSTARIS PLAYROOM WITH POOL TABLE FOR ADULTS AND GAMES FOR KIDS.
YOUNGER KIDS WOULD OF LOVED THE PLAYSCAPE WHICH COULDN'T ACCESS BECAUSE OF TONS OF STICKERS TO GET TO IT.
WOULD OF ENJOYED THE HUGE JET TUBE IN UPSTAIRS MASTER, BUT JET DID NOT WORK.
POOL WAS FABULOUS.

Property needs TLC
Could be a lovely property. The size, comfortable master and on-site offerings are great. Just needs a shining up of the windows, overall patio and pool deck. For 8 people, there were only 2 pool lounges. A culling and tidying of the kitchen inventory is needed too. The gate opening keypad didn't work most of the time.

We had fun!
We enjoyed our time and the property was close to all the things we wanted to do. The wild life on the property was fun to watch.
Our biggest wish was that the pool and patio were cleaner. We contacted managment about pool filter being clogged and sweeper bag having hole which was blowing debrise back out. Nothing was done. Some of the outside furniture was broken or dirty.
