We are featured in the June-July 2008 edition of PLENTY Magazine due to our eco-friendly commitment.
In addition, we are a (5) FIVE MINUTE DRIVE from GUADALUPE RIVER TUBING and several yards from Canyon Lake. Come enjoy the water sports! Also, we have a SPECIAL OFFER for a FREE WINE TASTING for SIX people at an AWARD WINNING Texas Winery for booking during July 7-11, July 14-17 or July 21-24 and select August dates. Also, everyone who rents with us at Strawmanor in 2008 WILL BE ENTERED TO WIN A FREE WEEK LONG STAY during the Spring or Fall of 2009. Entry is free of charge and you need not be present to win.
This property is ideal for several reasons. It is new construction. The furnishings, energy star appliances and decorations are new and of excellent quality. Furthermore, the interior is spacious and roomy, and allows you to completely relax, unwind and immediately feel at home.
Have a glass of wine by the fireplace, hop in the hot tub or both depending upon how much fun you want to have. If you feel like watching the sunset or stargazing you only need to step out onto our second floor deck, and enjoy your favorite beverage in the company of your friends and loved ones. There is plenty of room here with 8 queen size beds and a sofa sleeper, you can bring your entire group.
We have a large restaurant style kitchen. This means you can easily bring in a caterer to serve a large group, use the facilities to whip up your latest gourmet creation or do something simple like microwave popcorn. However, if cooking on an outdoor grill and having a picnic while gazing at the wildlife with your children is for you, we have the facilities you need.
For those of you who like to gather for quality time you can enjoy a wonderful large gathering room with a DTS, digital, surround sound stereo system and satellite television. This can be used for presentations or simply relaxing to your favorite music as you have a fire and enjoy after dinner drinks, or tell your kids well loved ghost stories.
If you are a stressed out urbanite, looking for a place to unwind, we can schedule private meditation and yoga classes as well as spa treatments. You can enjoy these in the privacy of the house without ever having to leave this tranquil sanctuary.
Furthermore, it is our utmost pleasure to arrange tours in the wine country, to lavender farms and olive oil orchards, a caterer for your events, secure reservations to nearby restaurants or any thing else you may require. We are known for our wonderful customer service. Please see our guest comments from our valued visitors in 2007 and 2008.
Moreover, there is plenty to do when you stay at Straw Manor! If you love water sports we have a great view of the lake from our deck and are within walking distance of sailing, fishing and jet skiing on Canyon Lake. Or, if you prefer tubing we are a 5 minute drive from the Guadalupe River. Not to mention the incredible water park Schlitterbahn fifteen minutes away. In the alternative, Canyon Lake and the surrounding area is filled with horseback riding, tennis, golf courses, hiking, road cycling, and mountain biking in those famed hills of the Texas Hill Country. Find out for yourself why Lance Armstrong trained in the Hill Country!
You can feel great about spending your dollar here because we are eco-friendly. We built this retreat out of strawbale, we are committed to the environment, use environmentally friendly cleaning supplies and donate a portion of profits to the Texas Hill Country Conservancy to preserve land in Texas. We are also in the process of turning our acreage into a Texas Wildscape.
We will do everything we can to make this a wonderful trip for you. We are available toll free by phone as well as by email and will get back to you right away! We look forward to chatting and are here to help you arrange a wonderful stay in Canyon Lake, Texas Hill Country. |
