Sister Get-A-Away

The facility was very nice but lacked basic needs: bottle opener, spoons, dish soap. The refrigerator froze fruits, veggies, cheese, and wine. I was expecting an email or text on how to access the unit, before or on the day of arriving. Called and emailed twice. Check-in time was 4pm, but, did not get a text on how to access the unit until 5pm.

Comfy and clean

What a perfect place to spend the night before camp drop off. This was our second stay here, and we look forward to coming again. The bed and linens are very comfortable. The indoor and outdoor spaces are well designed. The property is very clean. The owner was very helpful answering questions about area restaurants prior to our trip.

Lovely Weekend Getaway

My wife and I stayed here for a few days for our Honeymoon and it was lovely! The Tuck-Away was just as advertised and was super clean and comfy. It is located very close to a trailhead for the path by the river, and is close to the busy roads while still being out of the way and quiet. Everything was quiet and comfy, which is just what we wanted. We were surprised only once by voices through the wall, which we think was the cleaning crew in the attached Get-Away unit, but we were just caught off guard. The only issue we had was that the door lock didn't seem to like my wife. It worked just fine for me, but it gave her some difficulty when unlocking. :)

Wonderful!!

This was one of the BEST vacation rentals I’ve ever stayed in! It’s so cute, well done and has so many thoughtful touches. The bed is SO comfortable. The condo was immaculate, the courtyard was perfect for my little dog to run out first thing in the morning. The beautiful trail along the river is in close walking distance and though i didn’t use them, the owners even provide bikes! I communicated with Keri and she couldn’t have been nicer! What a delightful experience! Thank you!

Perfect Stay for Camp Pick-Up

We stayed for one night before picking our daughter up from camp, and it was the cutest place! I especially loved the location of the property and its close proximity to the river and numerous restaurants. We walked to dinner! The host was wonderful and so responsive as well. Would definitely recommend.

Kerrville quiet spot

Great location just across the trails along the Guadalupe river in a quiet neighborhood. Perfect for a short stay with comfortable bed and nice living space. I loved the backyard with picnic table, swing and outdoor shower. Bikes were available. We invited our sons to come over for pizza and Keri was flexible and allowed us to have guests. I would definitely stay there again.

Nice efficient place

Cute little place that offers separate bedroom/ living room privacy, as opposed to a motel room. However, since it doesn't have cooking facilities, with all the fees and taxes, it's not a better value than a motel. What it does have is a nice little back yard area, bicycles (which we never used) and a comfortable living area. It is a nice little place to stay, with more room than a motel. Cons- could use a deep cleaning (fuzzy fan blades), back yard cleaned of leaves and the gate latch was broke so it wouldn't stay closed. The neighborhood to the south/west is sketchy too.

Lovely getaway, warm welcome

Everything was done clearly with the guest in mind from layout, recommendation and checkout lists to a courtesy bottle of wine and incredibly clear directions to property and parking to swing in the yard. Cozy and welcoming. Linens and pillows were awesome as was the bed. Location steps from Guadalupe River path, just lovely. We also enjoyed the hosts' restaurant, Grape Juice, and several of their recommendations on food and activities.

Get Away at Tuck Away

Great little place to stay! My sister and I spent 2 nights here. We just needed a place to sit and stitch! This was perfect. Comfortable living area with good lighting. Extras included a complimentary bottle of wine and an honor bar, stocked with soft drinks, water and booze. The bed was king size and very comfortable. The shower was large with classic black and white tile! Very clean! Decor was funky and we loved the red leather love seat! Highly recommend this VRBO. Also ate at the owner’s restaurant Grapejuice. Very good food and great service!

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. Walk or ride one of the bikes on the property and explore our fun town.
