Awesome place! We really enjoyed it and definitely recommend it. We were even able to take a walk around the property and pet the miniature donkeys the owner raises. The owner was really nice and welcoming. Great experience overall.

Was a great little spot but unfortunately a couple of the amenities were not usable. Mainly the Hot tub and Fire pit
Beautiful, private location with every amenity we desired. It was the perfect retreat for us! Gorgeous views, excellent hot tub area, and purposeful cabin layout that invites relaxation. We’ll be back!

Thank you so much for your sweet review, wow - we are so glad you enjoyed. Thank you for booking with us and for your review Laurel. We hope you'll come again.
Host was very communicative and responsive. Property was very nice and quiet. Location was great too. 15 minutes to both Fredericksburg and many vineyards and Garrison Brothers.

Thank you so much for your review! We’re so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay
Perfect stay! This place has everything you need for a quiet, quaint getaway. We enjoyed it all, from the beautiful scenery to the relaxing hot tub. We wanted to stay in the beautiful hill country, and this was exactly what we were looking for. It was still close to so many attractions and just a short drive to Fredericksburg. Thanks to the hosts, for making it a great 25th anniversary stay for us. We can't wait to stay here again.

Thank you Christy for your sweet review! We were so happy to get to host you for your 25th anniversary and we’re so glad to hear it was a special trip and that you enjoyed your time with us. We love when our guests want to come back, please do!
Me and my husband loved staying at the treehouse! Loved the location, it was secluded and quiet but a quick and easy drive into town. Literally perfect for a weekend trip. Kitchen was stocked with just the right things you would daily need, very clean, lots of towels, great shower pressure, good WiFi and comfy bed but you still felt like you were “out”,very private! Good communication fromHost without ever seeing anyone or needing anything! Not to mention they didnt give us a list of chores to do at checkout and then charge me a crazy cleaning fee, rare these days! But a little thing that is noticed. Thanks for the great and cozy stay!

This was generally a big disappointment, but I need to explain. The owners are lovely. The property manager, Porch Light, did not handle the issue well. The hot tub was broken and Porch Light was responsible for telling us and didn't. When I contacted Porch Light immediately upon discovering the issue, they called and said they did know about the issue and didn't get to tell us, so they could give us a small refund later after checkout. That was unclear and concerning, and after asking a few questions and not receiving a response, we contacted VRBO directly and got a much better response. The owner came down to see us while this was going on and was truly sorry about the issue and thought Porch Light had told us.We left the property with a full refund through VRBO and found somewhere else to stay.Here is my advice-- this is a cute place, and, if the hot tub works, definitely stay here! But I discourage you from renting anything that Porch Light manages. Their communication was unclear and unpredictable, and when they found out that we want to VRBO for the refund, they were rude andcondescending on the phone.Again, the owner was great and the place is very cute. We just had a bad experience with the property manager.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re very sorry that your stay did not go as planned.
Shortly before your arrival there was a misunderstanding between our team and the property owner regarding the status of the hot tub. Our team member believed it was being worked on and was awaiting confirmation on whether it would be operational for your stay. Unfortunately that information was incorrect, and we should have reached out ahead of arrival to let you know the hot tub was not functional. We sincerely apologize for that miscommunication.
When an unexpected issue affects a major amenity like a hot tub, our standard approach is to offer guests two options: stay with a discount for the unavailable amenity, or cancel for a full refund. After speaking with you and learning you preferred to relocate, we issued a full refund so you could make other arrangements.
We appreciated how kind and understanding you were during our conversations and believed the situation had been resolved. If you had expressed dissatisfaction with how things were being handled, we would have done whatever it took to ensure you felt taken care of.
Our team hosts many guests each year, and the positive reviews we receive across all of our platforms reflect the level of communication and service we strive to provide. The replacement part for the hot tub has already been ordered and repair is scheduled for this week.
We wish you the very best in your future travels.
It’s hard to talk about the stay without gushing. Hands down the best rental experience we’ve had. The place was cute af for starters. Beautiful, private, clean and comfy. Every single detail was thought of. Every accoutrement was right there. It was kinda mind blowing. The bed was incredible. So was the hot tub and fire pit. I seriously can’t give enough praise and we are hoping this party has more properties to rent for our next trip. 19/10 obsessed!
