'We thoroughly enjoyed this Airbnb. There were so many options for our group including kayaking, ping pong, disc golf, a playhouse for the kids, swim spa, and more. The house was spacious for our group and enough room on the property for our large group to enjoy. We had a lot of kids in our group, so I loved all the little things the owners put in the Airbnb including movies, bicycles, tree house toys, life jackets, and books. Lisa was also amazing and flexible with our last minute booking. She checked in on us frequently during the first 24 hours to make sure all of our needs were met. The house was perfect and we will definitely be considering staying here again when we travel back down to this area!'

'Lisa was very accommodating to our every need and concern going into the stay, and went over and beyond her hosting duties by meeting our unique requests for the dogs, kids, and even a golf cart. The home was well kept, in a great location in relation to city runs while still far enough out in the country to see the deer and stars and hear the coyotes at night. The countryside was perfect with a crystal clear creek running though it, and if that wasnt enough, there were an assortment of activities provided to keep the kids entertained and the adults relaxed.'

'Our stay was just fantastic from start to finish. After a group of us had been furloughed for quite some time, we needed a nice weekend on the water and this was more than we expected! We spent 95% of our time outside playing cornhole (which they have!), wiffle ball, by the fire, but mostly all day out on the little beach and river kayaking, floating, and just enjoying the day. If you run out of supplies the store is just a couple minute drive and there is plenty of space for friends and family to sleep - we will be booking again!'

'This place is AMAZING. We rented it out for our wedding and had our wedding on the property. Lisa and her husband are great people. She has great communication when staying and was there to answer any of our last minute questions. The hot tub was a huge bonus and great to soak in after a long wedding day. There was plenty of space for our family and friends to sleep in.'

We're a small team based in Texas. We handle every booking ourselves — cleaning, guest care, the welcome note, the directions to the best Hill Country coffee. A portion of every night you stay supports a church-planting family abroad.
