This property is exactly as it is described. It’s beautiful. It’s very unique and very spacious. The wildlife on the property is absolutely wonderful. You can sit out and have your coffee while you are watching deer just casually walk around the backyard. The owner Terry was so wonderful and helpful at all times. Highly recommend this property for a family get together!

We had the best time at this house. Comfortable beds. Great views. Fantastic backyard. Terry, the host, so friendly and lovely! Made me miss my grandpa talking to him when he called. Definitely recommend this house! We rented a van and traveled as a group to Gruene and New Braunfels one night and it was only about a 25 min ride. This house is perfect for a small group of friends or family wanting a relaxing vacation!

My family really enjoyed their weekend stay. We loved the upstairs deck for sunsets and had fun playing lawn games and hanging outside. The living room is so cozy and has tons of seating.
