Summary of reviews
Stunning views, awesome pool, and well-equipped kitchen. Clean, spacious, and comfortable. Perfect for a relaxing family getaway.
8.0 / 10.0
Located in a great area with a fantastic view. Smelled very clean when we walked in. House is very spacious with large bedrooms and bathrooms and an open area living space. Had a great time playing pool downstairs. The swimming pool was nice and relaxing. Loved the decking; cool breeze most of the time. Kitchen and bathrooms are well stocked. You really only need to take food if you want. Only a mile from downtown dining and shopping. Great food of all types to choose from. Not much of anything to do for kids in town.
Temperature of AC was ideal on middle level but none blowing where pool table is located downstairs; kept stair door open to keep cooler. Upstairs was also on the warmer side.
TV channels in the living area were awesome; great selection. All movie channels in master bedroom were in Spanish (did not favor this).
The entire yard was overgrown with grass and shrubbery/vines. Stairs up to front door were blocked with a tree/bush as were the stairs to the pool. I tripped and fell on pool stairs. Red wasps were an issue during our stay, perhaps due to the overgrown lawn/landscaping issues.
AC filters were extremely dirty (said they were due to be changed on 8/1), when we left; there was spider webs and dust on lamps in downstairs bedroom. The inside of the cabinets need a good cleaning.The carpets in the bedrooms could definitely use a deep cleaning as well.
Would consider coming back again.

Overall we had a good time. A lot of the other reviews were accurate. Such as the lawn. It needed mowed and the lawncare team did show up during our stay. But I think the flowers/ shrubs/ trees need trimmed, especially the ones that lead to the pool and to the front door entrance. The spiral stairs is narrow but we didn't have an issue. The house is large and can accommodate a lot of ppl. I would stay again!

The house was lovely. We did not have a big group but if you did this would make a great place for a couple of families to make memories. We really enjoyed sitting on the back porch, chatting, and taking in the beautiful view.
6.0 / 10.0
Pictures are a lot nicer than reality. Landscaping was terrible. Grass needed to be cut and a lot of weeds needed to be contained. The water feature from yard to pool doesn't work and they said it hasn't in a long time. A worker showed up and was checking water levels etc unannounced and i had 2 dobermans outside at the time. Luckily i was there to prevent that from going bad. Gas bbq pit was not working. Just a heads up for ppl with pets, property is not fully fenced except for the pool area. Mosquitoes were pretty bad and backyard had a sewage smell. Lastly, the top floor did not have good air conditioning at all. Stayed hot.

A wonderful place to stay! Great views ! Well equipped!
Even beach towels were provided. Many porches and outdoor spaces to enjoy! Nice pool!
Very close to restaurants & shops of center of Wimberley. Very quiet, peaceful, relaxing place to stay - but yet very close to everything, including grocery stores. I will definitely be returning there !

We were happy with the location (right outside of town). The pool is GREAT! There is LOTS of outdoor seating. The kitchen is SUPER well stocked. The house was clean. The downside...the spiral staircase to the 2nd bedroom and the "game room" area with the twin beds. It made getting luggage upsairs difficult. We definitely enjoyed our stay though

Overall the property was great amazing view house was nice. The only negative items the stairs going into the house. Was very difficult getting items into the house. The second and third bedrooms upstairs with a spiral staircase very difficult getting luggage up to room. Outside pool area needs to landscaping and up keep performed. Trees, bushes and weeds nees to be trimmed bad. Other then that overall good Property...

We enjoyed the gorgeous views and the cool pool. We came in the heat of July 4th holiday and we’re never uncomfortable here! The beds were out of this world comfortable (I love firm beds!), and the kitchen was fully stocked. I saw birds I’d never seen in Austin and the moonrise was amazing! We really really loved our stay, definitely will be back!

Wow🤗 this house was amazing 😍. The view from every window was breath taking. We loved the pool and hot tub at night and those beautiful stars. We enjoyed playing pool downstairs and addition kitchen was a plus. Kitchen on many floor was very beautiful and equipped with whst we needed. Deck all around and hill top views were gorgeous, fresh breezey air. Definitely recommend going there to family and friends and will be booking again very soon.

The views were beautiful and the pool temperature was perfect. The house offered plenty of room for our family of 5 to spread out. Our kids enjoyed the pool table every night. Our only real complaint other than the upstairs being hot and the cold water in the master tub not working was the grounds were not kept up. The lawn was extremely high and hard to walk through. The landscaping around the pool was way overgrown and weedy, and there were tons of mosquitoes around dusk because of it. We weren’t able to really enjoy the pool area anymore once it hit dusk, which is why we rented this house. But, overall it offered us an opportunity to stay in a home with gorgeous views for a few days.

This place has everything, the kitchen was well stocked. The deck and pool was great! The only 2 remarks i can say is the beds are on the firmer side and lots of stair but totally worth for the view.

6 of us stayed the weekend for some much needed girl time. The property was quite and secluded, yet close enough to town for comfort and day outings. The pool, hot tub, and pool table offered all the entertainment we needed. The kitchen was stocked with all the cookware you could need. The home was clean and had lots of room for everyone.
I liked the 4 twin bed option upstairs so that people didn’t have to double up if they were not comfortable with that. Anyone staying in the room with the 4 twins did need to walk through the upstairs bedroom or walk downstairs for a bathroom, but that was a minimal inconvenience. There were 3 full and 1 half bath, so there were plenty of options for everyone to get ready in the morning.
Everyone left feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. I would book again.

This place was beautiful, the kids swam and played in the hot tub the entire stay. The views from the porch were phenomenal. We ate our meals outside and enjoyed the views. Saw a few deer also! The only hard part was the stair case inside, it was narrow and very twisty. Would def be hard for anyone other than kids, and 2 of the three bedrooms were upstairs. But the downstairs master was amazing. Tons of room. The hot tub was very slow to heat, but it did eventually heat up. Overall a great experience! Didn’t need to leave the house other than to get groceries!

Awesome house! Just a few things wrong.
This is the second time I’ve stayed at this house. Both times have been great. The one thing wrong with the 2nd stay was that there was some trash left over from the renters before us. It was hidden off to the side of the grill off the patio in some bushes. It could have easily been over looked. The

Amazing!!!
This place is so beautiful it's hard to give it anything less than a stellar review. It wasn't without hiccups, but management and the owner were immediately responsive.
The inside of the house was clean and the decor was appealing. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything, EVERYTHING! Now on to the pool...the grounds could use just a little extra attention, but y'all that pool is breathtaking! We were only inside for eating and sleeping. If you're undecided about this property, book now; you won't regret it!

Overall Decent Experience
The house was clean and the views were awesome, pool was great as well. Many of the amenities in the house were either broken or in very poor condition (coffee pot, dishwasher, etc). Upstairs of the house was very hot, thermostat for the upstairs was in the master, only way to make the upstairs tolerable was to freeze out the master. The location was a little remote for our preference, very steep entrance/exit and we really didn't like how half of the house and the detached guest house were inaccessible. For what we paid you'd expect to have access to a washer/dryer as well. Overall was ok, would likely stay elsewhere next time.

Other reviews were accurate
First the good; the hills were great, and the home is equipped with almost anything you would need. We all felt that the home was not as private as advertised, and there was no way to secure access into the home. Needless to say we did not feel secluded. The pool had green mold in the pool, and the hot tub was not very appealing, it was an older aged unit that really never got hot to the temperature setting. My husband and I along with our my daughter braved it but none of the other family members want to get into it because the water was merky and edge of the hot tub looked rusted. The dishwasher takes a very long time to wash dishes, and door slams down to the floor. We overall made the best of it and made some great memories.

Hill Country Paradise
We're coming back ASAP. The house was beautiful and super clean. It sits atop a hill, so the views are outstanding. The pool and hot tub were the real heroes. The kids didn't want to leave. We were lucky enough to meet the owners asnd they were amazing Highly recommended!.

Great stay!
My family and I really enjoyed this property. It was very clean and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay and making meals. Close to Wimberly Square and property is very secluded. Property could use some improvements, but everything worked and overall no complaints.
8.0 / 10.0
Nice View
First the bad:
Hot water tank not large enough to fill the tub in the master bathroom.
Outdoor grill barely works, suggest you plan on other cooking options.
Dishwasher is terrible, when my wife opened the door it crashed down on her foot and left her with a sore foot for the whole week.
Now the Good:
Pool / hot tub were good
Great porch with a nice view
Located in a nice area
Plenty of room.
Overall i would not be afraid to rent it again but i would ask that a few more things be addressed before i did.

Floating the San Marcos River Weekend
Synopsis:
-Secluded
-Awesome view
-Clean
-Well stocked
-About 30 minute travel to nearby stores
-If you don’t like stairs, this might not be for you
-The driveway/parking area was the worst part of the property
Overall the property was awesome! It was secluded up in the Hill Country hills. Six of us stayed that weekend, and there was plenty of room for all of us. The property was clean. They have everything that you need for your stay including all cookware, dish cleaning supplies, towels, toilet paper, etc. My favorite part of the property has to be the back porch overlooking the hills. It’s a pretty secluded area so all stores and restaurants were about 30 minutes away (including the San Marcos River, which we floated.) The downsides of this property are that I wouldn’t say that it isn’t physical disability-friendly. It had lots of stairs from the front door, to the inside of the house, to the backyard. This didn’t bother me but I could see how it may bother others. The other downside is since it’s up on a hill the driveway leading up to the property was rocky, not smooth, and really steep at the end. I imagine it would be difficult going up the driveway after heavy rainfall. I wouldn’t advise coming in a really low car. I also wouldn’t advise coming in more than 2 cars. Navigating the parkway/driveway can be tricky with 3 cars. I’d say that the parking area could hold 4 cars (I forgot if the property listing said if it has a maximum amount of cars you can bring.) I would definitely stay again!
