Perfect Getaway

Cypress Treehouse was a great place for a short get away. Close enough to several cities and activities but also secluded enough to just have some relaxing downtime. We loved the little town the residence was located near and enjoyed some delicious food offered in the vicinity. Would absolutely stay again.

Wonderful Hideaway

This cozy elevated nest was perfect for a couples weekend! It is the most tastefully, thoughtfully and completely equipped vacation rental that we have encountered. We will visit again - maybe bring the family and rent the Cypress House, as well!

Such a cute place!

Had a wonderful stay. Everything was just as it said and the place was well stocked, decorated, and extremely pet friendly. We so enjoyed the patio and laying out underneath the stars. Highly recommend this place as a romantic getaway and nearby properties were awesome as well from what I could see. Would love to bring friends and family back to a bigger one.

Staycation Gem

My dog and I needed some time away before going into the holiday season. This place was idyllic, absolutely gorgeous. Once you walk in… I don’t believe the pictures do it justice. The space was great. The kitchen was well stocked for a rental.. the hot tub and the bathroom tub were awesome. Cannot beat a hill country sunset on the back porch!

Beautiful property

The house and view are beautiful. No complaints, no issues. We thoroughly enjoyed our couples getaway. One thing to note, There is a house in close proximity that is not shown in the listing and could be a surprise to some. It is owned by the same group and is attached by a deck bridge.

Great spot in Blanco area!

Really enjoyed our stay here. The space is relatively small, but they’ve made it so modern and comfortable that my partner and I commented how we’d like to do the same to our home. The building is closer to the neighboring homes than it appears online, so be aware of that and that. The hot tub is great but is visible to anyone staying next door. Overall I would highly recommend staying here if you’re enjoying the Fredericksburg or Wimberly areas.

Everything was in order except the shower was clogged and full of dirty water when arrived. Was required to stand in 6-8in or water to get a quick shower. Assumed there would be coffee and filters present but everything else was as advertised.

Thank you for your honest review. We're glad to hear that most everything met your expectations, but we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience with the clogged shower — that’s certainly not the experience we want for our guests. We’ve addressed the issue with our cleaning team to ensure it doesn’t happen again. We also appreciate your note about the coffee and filters — we’ll look into making our listing more clear on what’s provided. Your feedback helps us improve, and we’d love the opportunity to host you again for a better experience.

I'm obsessed! I can't express what a unique and lovely property this is. The light is amazing and the outdoor space is fantastic. I came for a quiet relaxing few days and if I could stay here forever I would. I only booked a few days as I thought I might be bored. That was not the case. The town of Blanco has some unique places and you have to try Oro Bianco Creamery. I will definitely be back but will stay longer.

What I was expecting

I researched probably every property within 100 mile radius to do a staycation outside of Austin. I ultimately chose this one because of the great location and how stunning the home is.It was exactly what we thought it would be and such a relaxing getaway. Even more bonus points that we got to bring our dogs and they loved it. What would make it even more spectacular as if there was a gate that closed off the property so the dogs could roam.The home was absolutely beautifully designed, and the only thing, if I had to pick something, would be that it was a little dusty, a couple cobwebs, but nothing crazy at all.Thankfully, it was within driving distance to a small supermarket, but we definitely felt that we were outside the city.

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We're thrilled you chose the property for your staycation and that it met your expectations as a relaxing getaway. It’s wonderful to hear your dogs enjoyed it as much as you did—your suggestion about adding a gate for them to roam is a great idea. We appreciate your understanding about the minor dust and cobwebs and will make sure to address this moving forward. Thank you again, and we hope to host you and your pups again soon!

We felt like the house could have been cleaner. Bathtub is not clean or up to date. Trying to turn on the shower without having cold or hot water hit you because of the glass is a very poor set up. No Kleenex in the house, no extra trash-bags. No instructions on how to put the blinds up or down. Consider having a book with all the information for your guests.
