I really enjoyed the stay for my sister’s birthday! We were able to float the river that was right down the road about 5-10 minutes away! The kitchen was beautiful and very nice to cook in! We really loved the backyard, as we utilized the hot tub and projector! Everything was really clean too! Definitely recommend!

Beautiful Retreat Near Lake Travis

Sweetest women I have ever met. I was trying to find a place in a hurry on a budget and she was very flexible and helped me with everything while traveling back from vacation at the same time! She called me as soon as possible and apologized for a semi late response. Overall great host and will definitely stay here again! BEAUTIFUL HOME!

Mini Lake View | King Bed | The Overlook Cottage

BillyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
As I sit here and write this review I'm comparing my pictures that I took to the pictures of the rental and the more disappointed I'm getting. The pictures are nothing like what is shown for outside. The inside of the house was awesome. As for outside the grass was overgrown. The number of chairs that are shown was way less. Not to mention of the two chairs one was broke. Luckily we brought our own chairs. No corn was provided for the deer. I did reach out about the corn and was told it was in the pantry, but there wasn't any there. If you are not going to enjoy the outdoors and plan on staying inside this house is perfect. I wish there was a way to provide my pictures for reference.

Cozy 1800’s Hill Country Casita

DaveRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Honestly I think it may be too soon for me to write a review… it’s only been a few hours since I left the place and I may be going through withdrawal. I absolutely LOVE the vibe of this place. So quiet… yet so close to some amazing hill country adventures. Really can’t think of a more perfect place to base camp or perhaps just to get some peace and quiet for a few days and get your creative juices flowing… write, compose, paint… whatever it is you do I am sure that you’d love doing it here. Thank you Kristin for curating such an amazing spot and making it available to us…

McKamy cottage: King Bed/Kitchenette/Full Bath

GlynRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We loved our extended weekend stay at Wrenwood Ranch and we will undoubtedly be back again. Chad and his hosts were very polite and accommodating about everything, they even offered parking cover for my motorcycle as a severe storm moved in with possible hail, that was above and beyond. Overall vibe at Wrenwood Ranch is peaceful with good hardworking folks, making their dreams happen, and sharing it with others along the way.

My mother and I stayed overnight to attend a nearby concert. The place is gorgeous, you really CAN see for miles and miles! The bed was very comfortable. The house was well appointed.

Charming Hill Country Cottage on 5 acres, near ATX

ShawnRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We stayed here while in transition from selling a home out of state and buying one. We needed calm and peaceful surroundings, and Shelly's place did not disappoint! It was so restful and quiet, and the property was beautiful. We saw deer on several mornings, and Shelly's garden was magical at dusk. If you need a break from a fast paced life, this is your place!

The Deer Haven Ranch Cottage 4 Beds

BrendaRating, 5 stars3 days ago
The cottage is so quiet and peaceful! The location was a great place for day trips to Fredericksburg, Wimberly, and Blanco of course. Melinda was very responsive when the internet went down (due to a provider not within her control) and let us use her hot spot on her ipad to watch movies! We did not have a pet, but the yard is nicely fenced for a pet which is a great benefit. You MUST read the cottage information book that provides the very interesting history of the cottage and renovation. Great Place!

HillCountry Cottage-13 mi to downtown Austin

KassieRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We had the absolute BEST experience staying at this perfect little cottage near Dripping Springs! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away. The home is small, but every inch of it is so thoughtfully designed and impeccably decorated — cozy, charming, and truly picture-perfect. It felt like stepping into a dream. The outdoor space was just as incredible — inviting, peaceful, and so comfortable that we honestly didn’t want to leave. We were supposed to be attending a retreat nearby, but we found ourselves wishing we could just stay at the cottage instead! The home was spotless, stocked with everything we needed, and the owner communicated flawlessly, making the whole process easy and welcoming. We can’t recommend this place enough and are already dreaming about coming back. It’s truly a hidden gem!

NEW: The Faust Cottage at Camp Milagro

TroyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Had the best time celebrating my birthday at the Faust cabin with family. Talk about accommodations, this property is amazing! I didn’t think private and tubing experience belonged in the same sentence but that’s basically what you get staying at Camp Milagro! Sophia and her team have gone over and above to make sure her guests are coveredThe cabin has everything we needed from tubes, a grill on site, phone chargers, extra portable speakers, even a wagon to help carry river toys. Look no further, I know I won’t😁

Such an amazing little gem tucked in the woods! My favorite part was that there were so many deer hanging around the area and it was so peaceful and serene. The lights that turn on at night outside make it seem like a place out of a movie scene. Very responsive and thoughtful hosts!
