Cozy and adorable acreage retreat

We absolutely loved our stay and the hosts were so kind. The house was so cute, clean and setup with everything we needed. We enjoyed spending time on the deck and hanging out on the dock. Our labs and us absolutely loved all the space to roam and walk.

Family Weekend

Our family who lives in Houston, Austin, and San Antonio all met here to spend Easter weekend together. The hosts, house, and property vastly exceeded our expectations. From the first gracious welcoming text to through a goodbyes, we couldn't have asked for more.

Peaceful Retreat

This property was exactly what we needed for this trip! We will definitely be returning. It was minutes away from the Sherwood Forest Faire and a great place to relax in between attending the festival. Everything from the dog welcoming committee, the human host, and the gorgeous property were just splendid. By far the best host I've ever had.

We had a great and relaxing trip at the cabin. Cabin is stocked with everything you would need to be comfortable and is close to Giddings and Bastrop if you want to get something to eat or do a little shopping. To be able to bring our dogs to enjoy the property and jump in the pond was a real treat. The pond was also a real treat for my daughter and her friend and ourselves to cool off in and catch a couple of fish. Host was quick to communicate and answer any questions while still giving us our privacy. Would've liked to have met the host maybe next time as I plan on going back as soon as I can.

Mini Vacation

Our stay was incredible! We were so happy to have found this amazing home and land. It was so peaceful and so much fun, the pond was a great way to cool off, the fire pit with the stars above was relaxing and the dogs brought smiles to our faces. We can’t wait to return.

Awesome weekend getaway

Fabulous property, caught some fish in the pond (including one on the first cast!), kids loved swimming in the pond. The Host was awesome and we will recommend this spot to our friends for the future. Outstanding stay and wonderful host! We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Lee County Texas.

Secluded Stay with 5 Star Hospitality

We really enjoyed staying here while shopping during the Round Top Fall Antique Week. The place is not far from all the activity and is a nice retreat from all the people. The owners are very attentive and make sure you have everything you need. There is plenty of space and we loved waking up to a beautiful view and some friendly pups coming by to say good morning. We recommend staying here!
