The property was beautiful and had a historic charm in the wood floors and details! We had only a slight hiccup with some vacuums and bags of dirty laundry that was left in the living room for our arrival. They were picked up from the porch with no challenges the next day. It was fresh, clean, and we had a nice visit.

Location, Location, Location. If you want to stay close to town and not mess with driving/parking, this is it. Clean, modern. Unfortunately, the view from the porch is of a back alley with about 10 garbage cans and a dumpster. Not pleasant.Vineyard? Did not go to one nor was there one on site.Save The World Brewery was great as was the town.

Disliked: Check-in, communication
Unfortunately, this well-kept and convenient location to old town was overshadowed by a terrible property management company. First, there was no bedding available for our 3rd person, which was corrected quickly, but then upon their arrival I was asked for more money to complete check-in. I called vrbo who stated I didn't owe the property management company any fees. I contacted the PM again to advise what I had been told by vrbo and was met with hostility and more rules that I wasn't aware of, which was to give a deposit to verify I was the owner of the card being used, which is their 48hr booking fraud policy. This was not made known in writing and yet they send an "operations" manager to collect this from my door during my stay. The PM with a British accent berated me for not wanting to participate in this property rule, even though I was not made aware upfront. Try being on the road and tired/busy and property sending a random person to collect your ID and more money. I travel a lot and this is NOT a standard practice anywhere I've stayed. A well kept mom/pop property that is managed by unprofessional PM.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
We want to clarify the situation regarding the card verification. At no point were you asked for an additional charge, the request was for a temporary authorization hold, which is 100% refunded and is a standard measure we use to help prevent fraudulent bookings, especially for last-minute reservations. This is typically a mandatory part of our 48-hour booking verification process.
In your case, as a courtesy, we chose not to enforce the hold, and we never intended for the conversation to feel hostile or uncomfortable. Our team’s goal was simply to explain the policy clearly, not to berate or upset you. We appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration to ensure our communication is as clear and smooth as possible for future guests.
Thank you again for staying with us, and safe travels ahead.

Great Stay
The Buchanan suite was very clean comfortable and well stocked for our 2 night stay. This place was within walking distance to several great eateries, winery and wonderful places to have a beverage/coffees. Highly recommend.
Our stay here was great! Wife and I loved the fact that it was right in downtown Marble Falls. We were able to walk around without having to drive to anything downtown wise. Only issue we ran into was not having towels for us to use for showers but they responded quick and were eventually able to deliver that to us same day. It is an older place, but they do mention that in the description so don’t be surprised by the creaking floors. It was clean and pretty well put together. Overall, we enjoyed our stay here!

Thanks for the great review! Glad you and your wife enjoyed the location—being able to walk around downtown is such a plus. Sorry again about the towel mix-up, but we're happy we got it sorted quickly. Appreciate you rolling with the quirks of the older home, and really glad you had a good stay overall. Hope to host you again sometime!
Location to downtown shopping was excellent. Place was clean and king size bed was comfy. The sofa was a bit uncomfortable but we weren't in the room long enough for it to be a bother. Definitely will stay again.

Close to restaurants and shops. Only very minor issue was no coffee pods for the coffee maker were supplied. I checked in late at night and had no coffee in the morning. A few Keurig pods would have made it ideal.

Hopefully, it won’t be an issue next time!
Fit our needs for the weekend including our 3 month old puppy. Dog friendly but she stepped on the rodent gel trap in the closet. Took cutting her fur off her feet to get it out. For a dog friendly place it could be placed better. But otherwise it was perfect

It was a wonderful stay. Nice and Quiet. We liked the private balcony in the Buchanan room. They had street vendors all down main street. It closed early at 4 but still had time to shop a little.
The property is great the location even better but the cleanliness of the bed found a lot of hair like a lot . There's no way it was left over from the drye.even though they said they're cleaning it that's why we couldn't check in early.

We came to Marbel falls to celebrate our 15 yr anniversary! The Buchanan Suite was nice and quainte walking distance to all of the main square, only things were the view from the private balcony on the suite we stayed in was the back of buildings next door and power lines, so no sunsets to be seen well front that side, and the couch was not comfortable for relaxing its angled down, the bed needs to be elevated and leveled at the head board, its angled back and down so you can feel the blood rushing to your head and we had to flip around and sleep the other End of the bed. Over all it was nice and great location and pricing was wonderful for a whole suite !

Can't rate the check in process with 5 stars because the keypad did not work upon arrival. That being said, the management quickly responded and courteously provided a key for entry. Would recommend the Buchanan Suite and plan to stay there again if in the area.
