  What a relaxing, lovely stay! The house is simple, comfortable, clean, well-kept and tastefully decorated. Our friend arrived about an hour before us, and when we called to ask how it was, he said it was nice. We probed and asked how the inside was, and found he hadn't made it past the porch swing! We spent much of the time on the upstairs deck, but it was nice to have the downstairs patio if you wanted to spread out. We brought food, and they had the basics there: dishes, pots & pans, silverware, coffee, foil, pepper with a grinder and coarse salt. Made chili Friday night, breakfast both mornings, and ate in Bastrop Saturday evening at the Roadhouse. Casual, great burgers and ice cold beer. Took a picnic to Buescher State Park, then made the park road drive to the back entrance of Bastrop State Park. Some lovely scenery, then sobering drive through Bastop State Park. Sad to see so much fire damage, but you can tell the renewal is happening. Loved sitting on the deck, watching the hawks, hearing the frogs, and had a couple of woodpecker sightings. We all decided we could have stayed for several more days. We weren't quite ready to leave on Sunday! Would definitely consider a trip back and will recommend to friends. Thank you for the hospitality!

  Owner response: Steve and I are always so pleased when our guests enjoy their stay at our wonderful cabin. We look forward to having you for our guests in the future. All the very best to you.

  We stayed here over the weekend to get away, and found so much more than we expected. The house is even more beautiful than the pictures! The view over coffee from the deck in the morning can't be beat. There was something here for both of us: I love to cook, and hoped to have time this weekend to do as much culinary exploration as possible. The kitchen was a chef's paradise! My friend found quite a bit of inspiration for his sustainable homes blog, and we even shot a video of all the great energy-efficient features. Just a few more things to love about this home: - The care put into the welcome book really made us feel like your personal guests. Thanks for the recommendation to Roadhouse; we ate there and loved it. - The knotty pine interior and furniture were so cozy and clean. It was very welcoming. - We didn't spend as much time outside as we wanted to, but next time it would be lovely to play ping pong downstairs or set up a game of horseshoes on the massive lawn. Although I'm not proud of it, I even took an online work conference one morning from the deck and found the wifi connection to be as good as I have at home or better. For anyone worried about getting too far away from the world, you can be as close or as far as you need to be. Amazing home, and a wonderful trip. Thanks so much for having us!

  Owner response: Thank you so much for letting us know what you enjoyed about your stay at our wonderful cabin on the river. We look forward to your return. All the best, Linda & Steve

  What a GREAT place to relax, cook, eat, play, etc.! We were so close to everything (downtown, Walmart, Lake Bastop) yet felt that we were in our own little cabin in the woods. It was really hot outside but the a/c and fans kept us cool. The cabin is SO well stocked with every day conveniences that we were in Heaven ha ha! We plan on going back when it is cooler (fall/winter) and maybe having an old fashion holiday. This place can't be beat!

  The place was very nice and the furnishings very comfortable. I'm the only one who missed having a tv or a vessel for watching a movie. I will certainly consider coming back and thank you for clean sheets and soft comforters. Even though I watch tv I'm more of an enviornmentalist and animal activist than most. I would have loved to have my 4 legged child Rose accompany me. Rose is a well behaved rescue dog; in that I rescused her.

  Owner response: Thank you so much for your feedback on your stay at our cabin. We made a very conscious choice to not have a TV because we, like you, enjoy the outdoor focus and like being in a peaceful environment. We do have internet access for anyone who wants to bring a laptop to view movies or stay connected. Wish we could have had your rescue dog at the cabin, but some members of our family have severe allergies. We wish you the best and would love to have you return.

  Thank you for sharing your beautiful river front cabin. We all enjoyed the stay and everything in the place was perfect. The kids enjoyed fishing, playing ping pong, chess, and uno. We all enjoyed taking turns laying in the hammock by the fireplace. This is an excellent weekend getaway place. The only thing we wished for was more time to spend here. We look forward to a future date where we may be blessed to stay here again.

  We decided to get away at the last minute for the New Years Eve weekend. Lucky for us, the cabin was available. Though a little difficult to find, once there, it was everything it was advestised to be. We had to flip for who got to relax in the hammock...That thing is AMAZING!!! Can't wait to come back in the spring. I'm sure it will be beautiful!

  Owner response: We were so delighted to have you for our guests. Yes, the hammock is amazing. It's a Mayan family hammock. Hope you enjoyed it both indoors and outside. We look forward to your return. The weather and the river are just gorgeous in the springtime.

  Words are bankrupt when trying to describe our stay at this beautiful cabin Christmas weekend. Our children and grandchildren from Austin & Houston met us here and loved it. Everyone raved about what a great place it was. I described it to one of my friends as being furnished in such a welcoming and comfortable way. The grandchildren and guys fished non-stop and didn't care that they did not catch anything. Everyone wants to come back in the summer.

  Lisa & Mike spent the night at the cabin. Lisa's brother and I arrived a bit earlier than they did on Saturday- first thing we did was call them and told them they should really invite a friend. So, later in the evening a great couple friend of theirs came and stayed for the evening. We came back early this morning to find Mike and Caleb out on the canoe on the river fishing. Mike never catches fish and caught his first fish within the first 5 minutes Saturday afternoon, and several more throughout the stay. We all enjoyed it very much. Christopher and I made them a gourmet dinner Saturday evening, they didn't have to worry about a thing. The cabin really had a WOW factor driving up, even more so when we came back Sunday morning. We can't thank you enough for everything-- it was everything we had hoped for. Everyone fell in love with the cabin and we look forward to visiting again in the near future! .
