The cottage was lovely-a tidy, secluded, quiet & well-equipped place to rest comfortably after active days in town spent hiking & swimming. Would return. I liked the rustic decor of the cottage. I also felt safe with the gated entry and other cottages on the expansive property. They were not too close to ruin the feeling of privacy, but not so far away as to feel completely isolated.

We both enjoyed the bungalow, it was peaceful, and enjoyable. Nice location and we would stay again. Maybe next time there won’t be a burn ban and we can light a fire!! The A/C filter needs attention as well as the standup heater.

Amazing Hill Country Experience!

This was such a beautiful little spot with easy access to Wimberly, Austin, Canyon Lake, and surrounding locations.. Hidden in the back of the property, it was very private and just the perfect atmosphere inside and out to experience the Texas Hill Country in full. Easy to use fire pit where you can enjoy and sit under the stars for hours! Host was very responsive and everything was clean.

We loved were we stayed. And loved every thing about the property. The only complaint was how close the toilet was to the wall. We had to sit on it sideways anytime we needed to use the restroom.

Spouse Marriage Retreat

It was so clean and quiet. There is one home on the property that you can see when you leave but when you sit on the porch it is so quiet and serene. The main gate stopped working for a quick moment but they were there very quick, let us out, and had it fixed when we got back. I would stay here over and over.

Relaxing stay

Overall is a great place! Far enough away but still close to anything we wanted. Place and property was cute. Only exception was not having hot water for half the time we were there. That kinda put a kink in our plans. Definitely would stay again though.
