Nice place, but had bad smell

This was a nice home. Good location, but unfortunately had a terrible cat smell when we walked in. The laundry room was almost impossible to go in. We had to buy a candle and kept it lit most of the time to ease the cat pee smell.

Adorable House and Excellent Amenities

We stayed here to celebrate my wife’s 29th birthday and as soon as we opened the door, you could tell it was meticulously maintained. The fresh smell, cleanliness, and coziness were perfect for our group. The hot tub was awesome and we really had a great time.

Hidden gem

My family and I (wife and 2 year old) stayed for just 1 night but we all wish we had more time to spend here. The house was so cool with a lot of activities provided by the host (washers, darts, hot tub, board games, TV, fire pit, etc). The kitchen was big and had everything you would need and the 2 rooms had very comfy king size beds. The bathroom was even awesome! They had a list of their favorite things to do in Kerrville posted on the wall and they did not disappoint. Probably the best thing about it was its location to all the best places in town. Especially the river trail. We walked there from the house and saw deer on the way and so many animals surrounded by beautiful scenery and great people. Our daughter absolutely loved it. Makes me want to live in Kerrville one day. (Gibsons was awesome too). The complimentary bottle of wine was the cherry on top. These are great hosts and its a great house to stay in. I hope to stay here again next time we are traveling.

Perfect Getaway

We loved staying at the Starkey House! Everything was perfect. The house was beautiful, welcoming, and comfortable. Our dog Chewy was with us and he loved Kerrville! Lots to see and do outdoors and every place we ate at allowed dogs on the patio. We biked the river trail and spent an afternoon at Louise Hays Park. We also made sure to visit Grape Juice and the food was delicious! Can't wait to come back!

Thoughtful Tranquility

Calming decor and relaxing outdoor space coupled with thoughtful items—yoga mats, guitar, honor bar, dog treats and a personal welcome marquee. Close proximity to Kerrville River trial made for a beautiful morning walk. Perfect lodging to see our son’s last college baseball game at Schreiner. The Starkey House is home run.

Love this place

When we first got there we saw the sign in the front yard welcoming us. Then we walked into the house it was even better than the pictures made it out to be. Everything was perfect for our little honeymoon getaway and I’m really glad we picked this place. Oh and also they own a restaurant called Grape Juice… do yourself a favor and visit there too it was delicious!!!

Great House with Surprising Extras

My wife and I stayed in the Starkey House for four days along with our dog Dakota. The house could not have been more charming and there were a number of extra touches that made the stay even more enjoyable. The house would be great for anyone but is ideal for those traveling with their furry friends. There is an enclosed yard that allowed us to let Dakota wander around a bit without being on a leash. He enjoyed gazing out of the yard to look for passing deer or other dogs. Dog bowls and treats were provided. We went hiking at a different state park every day and it helped that Dakota was worn out and ready to go to sleep after dinner. There are plenty of windows so there is a great deal of natural light in the house. There is a washer/dryer if you need one during your stay. The unexpected extras were my favorite part of the stay. For example, an iPhone cable was provided on each of the nightstands in the house. Most importantly for me, the owners made a guitar available for the use of guests. While I did not spend as much time playing as I hoped to, I did enjoy picking it up a few times. Outside in the yard there is a dart board provided for the use of guests. The river trail along the Guadalupe is a two minute walk away so we were able to do a warm up hike each morning with the dog. Mamacita's is a very short drive from the house (or you could walk there if you wanted to). This restaurant does not allow dogs so we grabbed some take out there and it was excellent. We also ate at Rails which has a very pleasant patio so Dakota could join us for dinner. Overall, we had a great stay at this charming house.

About the host

Hosted by Keri Wilt

FROM YOUR HOSTS: We love our Hill Country Community and own a popular restaurant, wine & craft beer bar in Kerrville’s Historic Downtown District called Grape Juice. Locals refer to GJ as Kerrville’s Living Room because of the warmth and hospitality found inside, but we simply strive to be what we call “5-star in Flip Flops”. So come as you are, dress up or dress down, get outside your box to sip something new, and make sure to order the brussel sprouts. Reservations Are Strongly Encouraged.

NEED HELP? Being foodies and travel junkies ourselves...we know all of the great spots to eat, drink, and experience our corner of the Hill Country to it’s fullest, so feel free to reach out for suggestions!

Why they chose this property

This newly renovated 1950’s bungalow is perfectly located just steps from the Kerrville River Trail, the Guadalupe River and mere blocks from Historic Downtown filled with coffee shops, cafes, & shopping and boasts some pretty awesome amenities.
