beautiful site and decoration

We had a wonderful time and would love to have stayed longer. The view from the site is spectacular, and Zena (the owner) is an amazing artist who's decorated the place so everywhere you look, there's a unique piece of art. She's also well supplied the refrigerator - even two beers. Loved it here!

Scenic and Peaceful Spot for Hill Country Getaway!

What an amazing property! You'll enjoy scenic views from the relaxing porch, whether you're star gazing or having your morning coffee. Zena is the most accommodating host - she really has thought of everything her guests might need and the property, which shares space with her art gallery and workshop, is situated in a great spot for exploring Hill Country. Highly recommend! We'll be back soon!

Absolute Paradise

What a wonderful experience. The sunrise each morning is spectacular. Very private and you can hear the breeze blowing thru the trees on the patio. The wineries are just a short drive away. Lots of wildlife on the land to view. We will definitely be back. Zena is a wonderful host and very inspiring. Thank you for everything. Lee and Terri

Total Relaxation and Beauty

We were coming in right before it got dark out and Zena was there to greet us and give us a full tour and information about the property. Walking through her beautiful art gallery was always a treat. We had plans during our short stay but as soon as we got there, we realized we HAD to come back to stay with NO plans. The porch on the hill was such a beautiful and relaxing spot that we could have enjoyed all day. The whole property was perfect. The rental was very well appointed with ANYTHING you could need. The bed was comfortable and her extra touches made our stay very special. I would highly recommend this home. Zena was a delight and I could have sat and talked with her all day. A unique place with an equally unique and wonderful host!

Love, Peace and Tranquility

My husband and I spent the weekend at Zena's in Mid-August. First of all, to have Zena waving at us from on top of the hill let us know she was going to be a fantastic, generous hostess. She was warm, friendly, but also mindful of our privacy. Her home is set far enough away from the apartment that we felt absolutely alone in the hills. The apartment has everything, and I mean everything you could need, from coffee, eggs and bacon in the kitchen, to hairspray, shampoo and a first aid kit in the bath. The sunrise off the deck was magical. We are so sorry we never got to meet EJ. Zena, his spirit lives on in every spot of the property. We could tell the two of you lovingly built this place as a way to celebrate love, peace and tranquility. We enjoyed all 3 at your place. Thank you. All our best to you in this difficult time.

Art and nature melded beautifully

My husband and I chose Zena's unique place based on previous reviews and perfect location for our needs - we came down from Dallas to meet with friends who were staying at Miller's RV park nearby. Zena was easy to communicate with prior to our stay and a joy to meet in person while we were there for 3 full days. She went the extra mile to assist us unsolicited when a rain shower wet our rented SlingShot by covering with a tarp and offering towels to dry it off - also keeping umbrellas near our door to use if needed. She's a jewel and her gallery and apt. are so intriguing and comfortable and offer insights into the interesting perspectives from her life. She welcomed our friends one evening and joined us for lively conversation which we all enjoyed so much. Loved the well equipped kitchen (and treats of eggs/bacon/juices/beers for the taking) and views from her deck which made the experience a true get away from city life! Will return and suggest to our friends and family looking for a quality stay in the hill country.

My husband and I had a great time in Johnson City and our accommodations were great. Zina was very helpful with giving us wineries and nice places to go for dinner etc. The view from our guest house was beautiful. The full kitchen was a plus and she even had snacks and drinks in the refrigerator. We definitely would recommend this guest house and will stay there again.

Oasis in the Hill Country

We had a wonderful visit to Johnson City and Fredericksburg this weekend and it was highlighted by our amazing accommodations at Copper Roof Ranch. Zena is such a gracious hostess and she has thought of everything anyone could need while staying in her apartment, from a fully stocked kitchen to toiletries in the bathroom to a frozen pizza, eggs and bacon in the fridge in case we needed a meal. Her personal, artistic touch is seen throughout the inside and outside of the apartment, and especially in the private gallery adjoining the living space. The apartment is warm and inviting. The view from the back deck is truly something to savor and can be enjoyed even from inside. We will definitely be back! (Additionally, Christmas time is a magical time to spend an evening in Johnson City itself for the festivities and the Lights Spectacular. Just be prepared to wait a while if you decided to eat at one of the restaurants.)

Great little hidden gem

My husband and I stayed at the Copper Roof Ranch during our visit to the Fredericksburg area. The property was beautiful, quiet and wonderfully appointed including a refrigerator stocked with the basics and all the tools needed to cook breakfast. Due to the weather we were not able to fully enjoy the outdoor space, but did to enjoy a little time outside while drinking our morning coffee. The property is a bit off the beaten path but well worth the drive. We will definitely keep it in our rotation when visiting the area.

Great getaway!

The ambiance of the property is relaxed, creative, and welcoming. It's very evident that Zena, the owner, was very intentional in every detail of the property, from the interior decor to the perfect alignment of the bedroom window and outside patio to the eastern sunrise (if for no other reason, visit this property for the gorgeous sunrise!). Zena herself was extremely accommodating and made us feel right at home. The mattress is super soft, which was an adjustment for my wife and I who are used to a firm mattress, but overall was a wonderful experience and easily 5 stars!
