The Cliffside house was fantastic and Billy and his wife were wonderful host making sure we were all taken care of. Hill country is a beautiful place and this house puts you right in the middle with beautiful views all around. Great house for a multi family gathering with plenty of room for everyone. We highly recommend Cliffside and look forward to coming back.

Secluded resort

We stayed with a large group. The area is secluded enough to stargaze in peace. We Slept well and hung out in the pool every evening. Kitchen had all the tools needed to cook and the game room was great to entertain. The host was very communicative and helpful. We plan to make this a reoccurring location for this trip.

Perfect!!

This was definitely one of the best vacations I've taken my family on. The house was spacious and clean. The property was absolutely beautiful. The rec center was a short walk and had everything you could think of to entertain the kids. We could not have asked for more and we will absolutely be back!!!

Great Stay Away from the Hustle

We loved this location. Secluded location with a recreation center was the perfect setting for our group! The pool was perfect on a hot summer night and the hiking had some amazing views and wildlife. Billy was a great host!! We will definitely be returning.

It was a perfect space for a family reunion with four bedrooms, just off an entertainment and kitchen area. It was beautiful surroundings with nice hiking trails. Having the recreation room at a distance was a nice place to visit, but was far enough away so it wouldn’t be disturbing when other people were using it. The host were gracious and had a servant attitude. Thank you to Billy, Cindy and Danniel. If we’re in that area again, we will definitely rebook Cliffside. We stayed in other places in the general vicinity and this was definitely the best.

This was an amazing place! The pool and game room were great fun for the kids and there was nice hiking. Th setting is beautiful with high bluffs and the creeks had water when we came so there were frog songs at night and fireflies. The kids had a great time and the porch was lovely for relaxing on in the evening. If it rains, bring bug spray, just like for anywhere in the summer. The hosts were kind and friendly and everything was perfectly taken care of!
