Great location! Love how the house sits back from the road and is nestled in the trees. The house is very well furnished with a great layout. Master bed and bath are on opposite sides of the house from the guest bed and bath. The house is very clean with plenty of space. Loved sitting out on the back patio and the front patio is covered so keeps you safe from bugs. Would definitely stay here again!
This house is amazing. Everything you need as well as slightly off the road. Truly a rest and relaxing house. Check in and out was amazing and there is even a piano in the house which my wife loved. If you’re in Kerrville for pleasure or work, this place is ideal.
The location is beautiful. Sitting in the hills of Kerrville, the house is decorated simply but beautiful. The landscaping is peaceful. I would totally come back again.
Beautiful property with an exceptional host! Spacious and clean and decorated for Christmas, which made it extra special! Thank you Carey!! We will be back!
Our host, Carey was awesome. She was there to greet us. House was fully stocked and clean. Beautiful home! We will be back. Highly recommend this home. And very affordable!
This house is immaculate. Well furnished. And felt very safe. Great location! We will definitely be back. I have also passed the listing on to friends.
First time stay but we all agree it’s where we want to be any time we’re in the Kerrville area; clean, quiet, comfortable beds, nice kitchen, beautifully decorated, a highlight of our visit to the hill country.
The entire home is beautiful & welcoming. It is clean & well stocked, through out. The beds are comfy, and the linens are nice and plentiful. So many little details make this home feel like staying in a friend’s home not a rental. The setting is lush, perfect and private. We wished we could have stayed longer. Communication with Carey was quick, easy and kind. We could not recommend more highly. What a treat it was to stay. Thank you! We would stay again.
If u want peace and relaxation this is the home. Carey was amazing, very welcoming. Its located in a very nice and quiet neighborhood. The Deer visiting had our kids excited. We loved kerrville and had so much fun exploring
Property was nice except it was bad timing due to flash flooding.

Yes, the Hill Country had flash flooding which prompted me to reach out prior to your arrival and offer cancellation with no penalty.
I hope you can come again under better circumstances.

The house was beautiful The grounds were peaceful and full of animal life The neighborhood was very quiet Not far from town , with a beautiful 30 min drive to Fredericksburg We enjoyed our stay
We have stayed many places in the Kerrville area over the last several years. This is nicest and best equipped property we have stayed in.5 stars across the board.
My wife and I and her sister and husband had a wonderful stay in this HomeAway home while we visited some of the girls cousins celebrating one of their 80th birthday celebrations. This is the second time we have stayed in this home. It is a great fit for two couples. Very well managed and very clean.
Clean, good location, always a good surprise when property exceeds your expectations.
