Thank you for your kind review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the beautiful home and the surrounding area. We appreciate you choosing to stay with us and hope to welcome you back again soon for another wonderful getaway!
We had a wonderful short stay - used the pool/hot tub, cooked wonderful healthy meals in the kitchen, enjoyed the beautiful views sitting outside, and watched a lightning and rain storm! There is a lot of space to spread out and is a beautiful area to stay in the hills.
This would’ve been an excellent property 10 years ago when the pics were taken. Now everything outside is overgrown and unkept and the lower level view is not great. The trees and shrubs in the pool area looks like they’ve been abandoned for years.The sprawling two story house is really cool sitting on a hill in the Texas Hill Country. The drive from Wimberley is nice and the view from the upper deck is still excellent!! If everything outside was trimmed I’d give the place 5 stars.

Thank you for the feedback. We’ve updated the Vrbo listing for Whispering Ridge Ranch to clearly state that only dogs are permitted and cats are not allowed. Our cancellation/refund policy is posted in the reservation details and is strict; refunds are not issued outside that policy. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
Nice property. Owners need to do some landscaping work around the pool and behind the house. The pool area is a haven for mosquitos and snakes with it being overgrown. For an area where kids play this should be cleaned up. Great location and managing company was easy to deal with.

We had such a wonderful stay! The house was spacious, giving us plenty of room to relax. The scenery was absolutely beautiful—peaceful, secluded, and incredibly relaxing with almost no neighbors in sight. While we didn’t get to use the pool due to the cold weather, the hot tub more than made up for it! Overall, it had everything we needed, and the location was just perfect. We will definitely be coming back!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the spacious home, peaceful scenery, and relaxing hot tub. It’s great to know the location and amenities made your stay so enjoyable, even if the pool stayed chilly. We can’t wait to welcome you back for another stay!
Beautiful place! But, it is not walking distance from the square (4 miles away). We enjoyed the pool, hot tub and views. We had a wonderful time! (The dryer did not work! We were disappointed because it stated there was a washer and dryer and we like to have the clothes washed during our stay. The walkway to pool was grown up and needed mowed, the pool area has no lights, the upstairs bedroom was hot and needs a window unit, the stairway was very narrow and hard to get luggage up) other than that, we loved the place!!! It was beautiful!!

Thank you for your kind words! We're so glad you found the property peaceful and relaxing. It's always wonderful to hear that our guests were able to unwind and enjoy their stay. We hope to welcome you back for another serene getaway soon!
We loved the house and especially the beautiful pool. It is a great layout for a large family. The kitchen was very well appointed- the main living room sofa was extra comfy. The house is almost too big for the 8 max people you are allowed to have.The walk out basement with a game room, a kitchenette and a full bathroom is just what you need when people areComing in and from the pool. We would come again as long as the thins noted below get fixed.We had several serious concerns. There was a colony of angry red wasps in the rotten eaves right near the main back door off the kitchen - many wasps got inside. One member of our party was stung. The upstairs bedroom with the queen bed was HOT. The ac just wasn’t keeping that room cool. The bunk room had a window unit AC so it was fine. The two members of our group who were supposed to stay in that room ended up going back to Austin bc nobody wants to sleep in a hot room. The upstairs bathroom can only be reached by traipsing through the hot bedroom. So that was another factor that was not great. Anyone sleeping in the bunk room would have to either go to the basement or thorough someone else’s sleeping area to take a shower. Which leads me to the problem of the basement shower - it didn’t work. So we’re down to two showers for 8 people - luckily 2 went home - but still. Last but not least, the pool lights didn’t work and neither did the solar lights along the rock stairs to the pool. Pretty dangerous at night.
