Excellent Getaway
This house was exactly what we were looking for to get out of Houston. It is settled back from main roads with enough land to feel somewhat isolated. The back patio is gorgeous and we spent half of our time sitting on it while my young son played. It was clean, well stocked, and everything I'd hoped for.

Peaceful retreat
We enjoyed our stay very much, the property felt secluded but was very close to town so provides the best of both worlds. The house had everything we needed to ensure we had a home away from home experience.

Peaceful & Conveniente
Beautiful, relaxing weekend! We stayed for a couple nights during our friends’ wedding weekend nearby and were so grateful to have a peaceful place away from all the festivities to get some rest. We typically use Airbnb but they didn’t have many options that fit our needs, so we decided to check out Vrbo and were so glad we did. Everything felt safe & secure with the fencing and keypad/code locks on the front gate and front door, which we were thankful for since our dogs were staying with us too. There were plenty of extra blankets for the beds, lots of towels for the bathroom/shower, and everything we needed like toilet paper, toiletries, kitchenware, and even baskets with snacks, bug spray, wet wipes, etc. One guest of our little group was limited in mobility due to a recent surgery and using a knee scooter to move around, and she was so happy that the house was easy to enter in and out of as well as maneuver around. A big plus is that the property is really close by to all the cute shops & restaurants in town as well as HEB for groceries & anything extra you might need. We truly enjoyed our stay and hope to be back during our next trip out to Wimberley.

Wimberly Get-Away
This house was was nicely decorated. We really appreciated the aesthetic of the home and loved the eclectic artwork. The king size bed was nice and comfortable. The practical use of the house could use some improvement. There was a couch that was comfortable enough to lounge on the watch TV with one other person. There were two other chairs in the living area that looked nice but would not have been a comfortable option for long term seating, like to watch a movie, for anyone else. The outside furniture needed to be cleaned. We didn't sit down once at all in the back because everything was dirty. The two chairs at the front of the house were rickety and rough. There were many pots for plants but most had bad plastic plants in them. In my opinion, I'd rather have no pots for plants than ugly plastic plants. We didn't really cook. We made coffee, but there were no filters for the small 4-cup coffee pot. That's an unusual size, so it would have been nice for those to have been supplied. We went to HEB and bought some and left them there. I don't know if the property management company would throw them away or not, but we had no use for them. In the VRBO listing it said there was not a hair dryer, so I brought mine. There was a hair dryer which I would have appreciated knowing because mine took a lot of room in my luggage. The listing didn't mention use of a pool at all, but the welcome page inside the house said to swim at your own risk. We were kind of confused by that since there was an pool at the back of the property that had a gate with a combination lock and the combination written on the back of the lock. We inquired and were told that a pool was not included in the rental since it hadn't been listed as an amenity. The comment of swim at your own risk should not be written on the welcome page. Overall, we enjoyed the privacy of the property.
