Everything was just great from the time we arrived and got out of the car and were greated by a couple deer, to the last moments where we sipped on a couple cocktails on the rustic porch. It was fabulous.

This was exactly the quiet getaway we were hoping for over the busy Thanksgiving holiday. Excellent location, very comfortable and well-appointed accommodation and no issues communicating with property manager.Love that this is a pet-friendly property. Would certainly recommend.Honestly didn't know about or visit the winery so can't give an accurate rating but if we are ever back in the area, it's the first thing we will do.

WOW! This was just right. Love the whole area. Very clean and as advertised. Love the rustic look and the modern amenities combine. Private little area for us and our dogs. Had a great time. We definitely recommend and come again.

We appreciate your feedback about the A/C—our team is always here to help with any questions to make your stay as comfortable as possible. We hope to host you again soon for an even cozier experience!
We really enjoyed our stay. The room was super cute, loved the rustic-ness about it. It was small, but fine for the two of us. The ceiling in the bathroom angles down towards the mirror, so if you’re tall that might be an issue. But no big deal for us. The tv had a Roku, but WiFi was not great. One night the internet was too slow to bring anything up. But we got it to work the second night. Not that big of a deal. We walked to Gruene, about a 15 minute walk. Saved us from having to find parking there.
We immediately fell in love with this little hide away in Gruene. Even though there are many cabins here, each one is situated for privacy so you feel like you’re in your own private backyard. The cabin was very clean and had all the necessities. Perfect for a weekend stay! We really enjoyed it.

Rustic Cabin
We stayed in the cabin on the property. It was comfortable and clean. Located in the back corner so it was very quiet and private. The cabin is very rustic so don't expect the Four Seasons. The property was a collection of houses and buildings that are Victorian or rustic Texas farm house. Spacious and quiet. It is within walking distance of downtown Green. If the weather is hot and humid like when we were there, you will want to take the short drive. It is also close to restaurants, shops, and New Brunfels. Overall, it was comfortable and clean and we enjoyed our time there.

Cute -but small- cabin
Cute little cabin. We were there for a wedding and the cabin was literally on the other side of the fence from the venue so very convenient. I would probably not rent this one again since for not too much more money I could have rented a more spacious place on the same site. The bathroom had a sloped roof so not much head space for someone tall. We did have an issue with the bathroom electrical socket not working and they came out immediately and fixed it.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, Michelle! We're so glad to hear that the location was convenient for your event and that we were able to resolve the issue with the bathroom socket quickly. We understand that the cabin's layout may not have been ideal for your needs, and we truly appreciate your feedback about the space. It helps us improve, and we hope to welcome you back to one of our larger properties in the future!
We really liked this property to get out in nature and plenty of room around us. The property was clean, well kept, and the yurt was comfortable and roomy. It is within a short drive to many wineries and activities. Having said that, if you are not comfortable in the outdoors, this is probably not the place for you. We had a dog with us and it was great for tor him. We had "interesting" weather during our stay. Several thunderstorms which were loud in the yurt but we always felt safe. The weather was cooler than normal so we stayed comfortable. During hot weather, the yurts will be a little warm in the day time. The last half mile to the property is gravel road and you will have to park a ways from your yurt. I highly recommend renting the golf cart to get around. The staff were friendly and helpful.
