Sonny Hillside Hideaway has all the best to offer for your Canyon Lake Get Away. This 3 bedroom 2 1/2 baths has everything you need! Conveniently located a few blocks from boat ramp #2 that has a beach area to enjoy the lake. Enjoy a golf cart ride to the lake, boat ramp, and neighborhood. (Golf cart extra charge) Minutes from the Guadalupe River. So much to do. Drive the wine trail from here to Fredericksburg. Check out all of the Hill Country distilleries. Most important relax in our beautiful clear lake and float the river. Feed the deer from your hand. After a long day in the sun, bbq(gas and charcoal) on the back patio and enjoy the Texas star lit night in the hot tub. There is also an outdoor pizza oven. (Ask about our pizza kits.) If there is no burn ban enjoy the fire pit in the back yard with some smores and good conversation. You will so find a dog washing station in the back yard with shampoo and dog towels to use. There is also plenty of room to park your boat or jet ski. This is where we call home so it is fully stocked for you. You will find a coffee bar in the kitchen as well as coffee machines in the bedrooms. Fresh herbs to use for cooking, foil, baggies, etc and all the seasoning you could ask for. Spa shampoo, conditioner and body wash and fresh towels. We want you to enjoy our home as much as we do. Please note, this is a pet friendly property.

Great mini vacation
The house is in a great location. You can’t see the lake from the house but it is at the end of the neighborhood. It’s very close to Canyon Lake Gorge and National Bridge Caverns & Safari. The pool was clean and lots of fun. The house is very relaxing, comfy and well equipped. Shower pressure was great and there was plenty of towels. Beds were very comfortable as well. We enjoyed our stay.

Thoughtful owners and quiet getaway
The house is as depicted in photos. The owners are very responsive and have included thoughtful touches throughout the house, including fresh flowers, robes, snacks and wine basket waiting at check-in, etc. Everything you need to stay comfortably is on-site. We loved that the house is pet-friendly. We detected a bit of pet odor in the living room / primary bedroom on arrival as noted by another reviewer; we passed this information on and the owners were responsive to us. We get that that is one downfall of having / allowing pets and we didn’t dwell on it. Our four hot-tubbers initially enjoyed but then all had a skin reaction to the hot tub; again, we passed that info on so the owners could speak to their weekly pool / hot tub service to double-check chemical levels, etc. Overall, we enjoyed the Canyon Lake area and our group had a good time.

Enchanting stay
This property is delightfull. Everything we could ask for close to the lake without all the craziness of being on the lake. The home is cozy and has anything one could ask for. Hot tub, pool, grill and wood burning pizza oven. Peaceful Coffee in the morning on the porch with the deer. Deck in the evening to enjoy the stars and cool evening. Close to both Gruene and Whitewater made for fun outings for my daughters. Absolutely will return. And recommend to everyone who asks me about staying in the area!

Not what we expected from reviews and listing
Note: we booked this home with 24 hrs notice, so perhaps that’s why our experience was so diff from other reviews? Pros: Spacious home, plenty of bath linens. Quiet street, quiet neighbor. Deer, porch kitty, bats, birds. Hot tub. Fenced yard. Thoughtful touches and amenities. Easy to find. Cons: NOT “a few blocks” from the boat ramp. It is 1.7 MILES to the ramp. This was pretty misleading. Community pool is NOT for guests… prop owners are supposed to be with guests. Instructions said to “just say your with us.” We didn’t go, out of respect for other owners. Hate to say, but the home was dirty. I’m not a neat freak like my husband, but even my kids and I were grossed out. Housekeeping was still there, quickly finishing about 15 mins after check in. Even if she had more time to finish turnover housekeeping, a deep cleaning was much needed. Both shower non slip pads were filthy, to the point that removed them and cleaned the tubs as best I could. Any surface not part of “maintenance” cleaning was quite covered with pet and human hair, dust, and cobwebs. Many of the clean dishes in the cabs and drawers still had food residue (food, not water spots). When the cleaner smell and air fresheners faded, a noticeable pet urine smell lingered, strongest in the living room. While the advertised price was acceptable (esp on short notice), after fees etc, we did *not* feel we got what we paid for. Felt like we couldn’t really relax.

Gruene Weekend
The house was perfect for our weekend getaway. We were close to Gruene where we had several activities. The house was very comfortable. There are steps, different levels in the house & back yard area, so might be harder for older adults. The welcome basket was a nice touch (thank you). We did have trouble with the coffee machine (making a pot), not sure what we were doing wrong. Also in both queen bedrooms the ceiling fan light would randomly come on during the night. Thank you and we would rent there & with owners again.

Fabulous 4th of July
We had a fantastic experience. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed with the property. The house itself was spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated. The owners had clearly put a lot of thought into creating a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. The amenities provided were outstanding. The kitchen was well-equipped with modern appliances, making it easy for us to prepare meals throughout our stay. The bedrooms were cozy and provided a good night's sleep, and the bathrooms were clean and stocked with fresh towels. One of the highlights of the property was the outdoor space. The backyard was beautifully landscaped, and we enjoyed spending time on the patio, grilling and relaxing. . The location of the house was also convenient. It was situated in a quiet neighborhood, away from the hustle and bustle, yet close enough to local attractions and amenities. We appreciated the privacy and tranquility that the location offered. Lastly, I want to mention the excellent communication and hospitality of the hosts. They were responsive to our inquiries and made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Their attention to detail and willingness to accommodate our needs made our experience even more enjoyable. Overall, I highly recommend this house. It provided a wonderful vacation experience, and I would not hesitate to book again.

Such a treat. Owner has a talent for decor
We were so impressed with all of the amenities. Every kind of coffee, toiletries, etc...The hot tub was a hit! The fact we could bring our dogs was 100% a huge plus. They even had a pet station outside. The deer ate from our hands, and the front porch kitty was a plus! We will continue to rent from this couple any time we have family visit and want to go to canyon lake. We are so happy to have found this adorable family with their beautiful home. Thank you for having us, The Ponders

Awesome place!!
The owner thought of everything possible. We really enjoyed the hot tub. The pizza oven was great and a lot of family fun went into our pizzas. The place was very clean and plenty of room for everyone. The welcome basket was a nice touch and we loved the wine. We come to the lake several times a year and this was our first time to stay here. It will not be our last. We already booked again for summer! We can’t wait!!! So happy to have a favorite place to stay at the lake that fits everyone comfortably!

Family Holiday
Arrived to warm lights and Christmas tunes playing softly. Very nice atmosphere. Good spaces for gathering. Weather did not support using outside deck, campfire and hot tub areas but nicely arranged. Bedrooms and bathrooms clean and well atocked. Quiet neighborhood - remote from city bustle, just the way we wanted it!
