Get away not so good
As arrived on Friday hot tub was broke, after two voicemails and multiple emails no one ever called back. Will never deal with this property management company again. They are terrible and will never recommend anyone to stay in any of these properties managed by them. We have to pay a cleaning fee when it was dirty when we arrived. Not happy and never wanted to make it right either just an apologies that's it....

Great place
My friend and I rented the house for a long weekend away and it was perfect. The views were great and it was a great place to reset and recharge. It was only a 15 minute drive to Wimberley where we spent most of our time.

Perfect Peaceful Get-Away
This is exactly what we (my wife and I) needed: peace, no rooftops, no neighbors, very little to no noise, greenery, natural landscape, and a perfectly cozy, comfy, country interior that met all of our needs. We'll be back very soon, I hope.
