  This is a beautiful home in a very quiet setting. The outside space was so relaxing. We used this house for our family when we can to Austin for a wedding. We enjoyed it very much. The third bedroom is quite small and really only accommodates one person, although there is lots of space in the living room as well. The owners were extremely helpful and provided all the information that we needed. We would definitely use this property again if the need arises and would recommend this property to our friends.

  Owner response: Thank you for your kind words. We appreciate that our guests are enjoying the serenity and beauty of our home. Just a comment about the third bedroom: we did convert it into a very functional office/den with all the amenities of both, bookcase, desk, computer, desk, printer, and fold out bed. Therefore, the person staying in that room will have less bedroom space but more work space. We pride ourselves in offering a peaceful and practical home away from home for our guests. Best, Morrie and Rachel

  Arrived at the house and it was just like the pictures. It was so very clean and so comfortable , just liek being home. There was plenty of room for everyone and the pool area was so relaxing. It was nice having the big kitchen and comfortable sitting areas. So much better than staying in a hotel, I did not want to leave...........Would go back anytime I am in texas..

  We really enjoyed our stay at this rental property. The owners have stocked the house with absolutely everything you would ever need for your stay. The pool was a welcome retreat and completely private, even though we were concerned when we arrived and saw that there is a small home in front of this rental house. It turned out to be no issue, as we never saw the people who live there. The house and location are perfect if you are looking for peace and quiet. We were delighted to see deer in the yard so many times during our 5 night stay. We enjoyed visiting wineries in the area, and the owners have supplied brochures for all of them. I would have given it a 5 star rating, but for a few minor cleaning issues. The coffee pot was dirty, there are cob webs hanging on a candle holder, etc. However, I would not say that the place is "dirty." It could just use a closer look when being cleaned. I have back issues, so the sofa did not have enough support when watching tv for me, but it is probably fine for others. We would not hesitate to stay here again, and to recommend it to others looking for a get away from the stress of the city.

  Owner response: We're glad you enjoyed our house. We value cleanliness and will inform our cleaning crew; they must have been having an off day. We know that our home, its surroundings and the amenities we offer are unique. We're are glad that you appreciated that!

  Such a cute house and plenty of space for all the girls to spread out, chat, eat, craft, yoga, read, be inside or out...so relaxing. We loved having coffee in the morning on the patio. The sun finally came out and we soaked up the sunshine by the pool. Beautiful surroundings and loved how close it was from home (Austin). Only to change was the weather (random cold front in May!!! REALLY!!!).

  We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Mora. The weather was perfect (low 80s & sunshine) so we spent most of our time in the beautifully landscaped yard and pool area, which is very private. The owners have done a wonderful job with this property. Everything was very clean and comfortable. It was so relaxing. The rental process was extremely easy and the owners were very kind and helpful. We hope they continue to rent it out in the future. We plan to return soon.

  From the moment we walked into Morrie and Rachel's elegant yet homey cottage, we felt "at home". We absolutely loved the open floor plan, so whomever is in the kitchen can be with everyone while preparing meals - which (with children) feels like always! The details were precious and the beds were very comfortable. We saw deer in the mornings and at dusk while sitting by the pool, moments we will always remember. My son even reported getting close to one, which is certainly a moment he will treasure. We ate breakfast with the humming birds and watched with awe the humming of the bees in the beautiful native gardens. We took hikes behind the house and excursions to Hamilton Pool during our stay - so close to everything! The pool was a bit chilly, but the kids managed to get everyone swimming by the end of the first day - and we barely noticed the cold water (almost) :-) This is a gem, and we certainly look forward to our next getaway here.

  Thank you so much for welcoming us into your beautiful home, we had a wonderful time. We were able to get away from the busy city and routine to a wonderful home that feels so close to nature. We visited with our 4 and 2 year old and they both slept in the small office room, which was perfect for them. I am so impressed by how stocked up the kitchen was and we even found some band aids when our 4 year old got a boo boo. When ever I visit a new place to vacation, the number one thing I look at is how clean the bathrooms are, and your home definitely met that expectation. Next time we visit you will be at a time were we can actually use the pool. Thank you once again, The Cuadras

  Owner response: The Texas hill country is just what the doctor ordered for us too. It's a great place to get away from it all and share time with kids and other family.

  A peaceful stay in the beautiful Austin country. We watched deer coming through the yard morning and night. It was still warm enough for us to swim most of the days. The house was beautifully decorated with a large kitchen and all the cooking tools needed to make meals...I was pleasantly surprised to also find a large collection of spices available! The beds were comfortable and the house was very clean. Just what our weary family needed! The kids are already asking if we can go back.

  My family and I (6 adults total) came into town for the ACL festival and wanted to have a nice home to come back to each night - this house was perfect! Very inviting home - cozy and comfortable. The grounds are wonderful - especially the pool area. What a beautiful setting to sit outside and have breakfast every morning! Our only (minor) issue was that the pull-out sofa in the office (3rd bedroom) was dreadfully uncomfortable. We ended up putting the couch cushions on the pull-out mattress, which helped a bit, and then we took turns in that room so one couple didn't have to suffer each night. But again, a minor issue. The house itself is wonderful and we'd definitely like to go back and stay there again. Additionally, the owners of the house were extremely nice and easy to work with. Thanks!
