Even though the location was easy for us to access we were left feeling as though we were far away from our day to day, in a secret place nestled in the natural beauty of Texas. The tiny, very tiny, house was cute, clean, and comfortable, perfect for our one night stay. Sleeping in the loft made us feel like kids again. From the comfortable bed we were able to watch the sunset and the sunrise. The AC kept the downstairs cool but we did wish for the loft to be cooler than it was. Once the sun went down, the temperature of the loft was fine.

Perfect getaway from the city!!

Absolutely LOVED our stay. Great private location, amazing amenities. Had many useful items from pots and pans to first aid kit and bug repellent. Very detailed directions to how to get to the location and was very quick to respond to any concerns or questions. The only one thing I would like to recommend is curtains or blinds for the side windows as well but it's remote enough to not actually matter. I wanted a quiet retreat with nothing but nature around and that's exactly what I got. AC was great as well and we were there for a triple digit stay.

Great location isolated area be prepared

Loved it, Property Manager was great quick response. Area was very isolated and we were informed. Really pretty. Not a lot of activities but that was good. Would probably do it again to disconnect. Quiet and remote, definitely take some food and download the location on map in case you don't have coverage.

Overall it was a nice stay. I wouldn’t mind seeing some Blackout curtains in the loft to help with the afternoon sun/heat. I would also trim the tress a little on Western Skys Dr. I would definitely book again.

Amazing tiny home! It has a beautiful view and all the amenities you would need to be comfortable in a wonderful little house. The directions were a little daunting (because of the location, not because they weren’t clear), but putting the address into Google maps took us here with no issue. Hopefully Apple Maps will get the clue and update. Being able to unplug was so welcome for me as well. I had to actually *gasp* interact with my beautiful wife. Just a win win win. To paraphrase Randy from the first generation of American Idol: “That’s a yes from me, dog.”

Very Secluded Peaceful Stay

Or 3 day stay was perfect. We lucked out and had the entire place with no neighbors except later on our last night. We grilled steaks on the grill, played dominoes, and relaxed. We brought a laptop to watch movies at night and used our hotspot that had a great cell signal. Amazing views! Will stay again!

Great Communication

Because of an extreme winter storm and at no fault of the owner, we were unable to stay. They worked with us step by step to make everything right for everyone and to book another stay in the future. Very honest, trustworthy people.
