Summary: I wanted to leave an honest review. Older beautiful house and open backyard. Very secluded, quiet house. Beautiful deck and big bedrooms. Lots of nice windows throughout the house. Lots of steps inside and outside house. Would not recommend for toddlers or senior citizens. Small showers, small kitchen, light water pressure. River does not flow, very muddy, not swimmable, which was disappointing. More for paddle boarding and kayaking which they provide.

Summary: Family of 11 enjoyed this secluded home by the Dry Little Frio Creek especially after dealing with Hurricane Beryl and power outages. The water was lower than pictured but still approx 3 ft deep in places. Fishing was surprisingly good considering the water level. We enjoyed fishing, kayaking, cornhole, ping pong, hummingbirds and wildlife. The large decking and patio area offered ample room for the adults and teenagers to have their own space. The king size beds were comfy and appreciated by the adults. Cell service was limited (texting worked best) but the WiFi worked so well my son-in-law was able to work from there. A few negatives were the lack of rails to the many steps down to the creek and between the rock patio and new decking. Windows are great for lighting and a view but the bamboo shades give no privacy especially at night (even in the bathrooms) or block out the bright sun in the upstairs bedrooms. With the array of coffee flavors today we were disappointed there was not a Keurig to accommodate the variety of Kcup coffee eight of us had brought. We even saw kcup coffee sold at the local grocery store. So be prepared cause Folgers is the only bulk coffee sold. A great place for a large family gathering but could use a few improvements to meet that “truly” 5 star rating. The manager and maintenance are very accommodating and will address any issues to the best of their abilities. We will return when the water level is up again.

Summary: This property was amazing! The location was very private and the home was beautiful. We had our own private spot on the Dry Frio where we could kayak, fish, or swim. The view from the back porch was incredible. There was plenty of space for the six of us to spread out. The beds were very comfortable and the house was tastefully decorated. There was plenty to do right there at the location without having to venture very far. Between the water activities and the outdoor game room, we kept very busy. We cooked out on the grill and spent time on the back porch watching the birds and deer. What a gem!

Summary: It was my wife and I and our two dogs. One of our dogs is a lab mix and she took every opportunity to get in the water. She quickly learned the location of steps for easy access. We did experience one hiccup and that was the sporadic hot water. I called Veronica and the next thing I know, the maintenance guy shows up and troubleshoots the tankless water heater. Come to find out, it was spider webs preventing a full heating. All in all, this place is absolutely gorgeous and is very secluded.

Summary: A beautiful location on the creek with large shady trees. We watched deer, squirrels, and birds while we sat around the wonderful fire pit on the stone patio. The beds were comfy, bathrooms and kitchen are small but clean…the master bath does have a tub and more room. Perfect for parents, and grown children to stay. We will be back!
