Stunning Ranch Villa: Private Pool & Hot Tub!

majw10

One of my favorite stays...this property has so many amenities. We enjoyed the views, pool/ hot tub, patio and interiors. Our family had an amazing & memoriable weekend. I highly recommend this property. The beds were comfy, the furniture inside & out was perfect, and Ruben was a wonderful host!!!

Perfect for a weekend family getaway!

Our family of 4 (+ our dog) booked this villa just a few weeks before our stay. We live just 90 minutes away in New Braunfels and made a last-minute decision to get away the last weekend of summer vacation. This home had everything we needed to just relax and lay low for a few days, without the hassle and expense of boarding our goldendoodle while we were gone. We spent countless hours (day and night) in the pool and playing board games, and we built a fire in the fire pit where we roasted marshmallows for s'mores. The propane BBQ pit was appreciated - we grilled steaks and steamed crab legs one night. The kitchen had pretty much everything we could need for all of that, including a solid spice offering and Keurig coffee pods. There were a few floats available on the back porch for use in the pool, and they have lots of pool towels in the utility room, so no need to bring those! The pool was WARM. No hold-your-breath-and-jump-in-quick needed! The house felt cozy and secluded. The pictures don't do the interior justice! Even with homes nearby, the trees shielded us from view and we hardly heard a peep. Ruben was very responsive and helpful when I asked him several questions after booking and also as I was packing. He reached out to check in while we were there and he offered to turn on the hot tub for us...it was way too hot for that! A few "heads up" items - There are lots of sprinklers needed to keep the grass all lush and green around the house and pool. If you leave items on the back porch overnight, they will likely get wet. We parked in the driveway out front and never moved it during our stay, so the sprinklers gave our car some stingy water spots...you can park in the official "parking" spots to avoid that. There were several large (nonvenomous) spiders hanging out in their webs on the back porch, so if you're not used to country living, they might surprise you. We didn't bother them and they didn't bother us. We called the one with her web built between the centermost columns "Charlotte." There was a pretty big one on the stack of yard games, but it was too hot to get out of the pool during the day to play cornhole anyway, so we didn't have a reason to fight him off. The welcome book warned about the water having a sulfur smell when it's really hot outside, and there was a faint smell when we were there (specifically when using the hot water). You may want to bring bottled water for drinking, which we had already planned for anyway.

Wonderful Getaway

We brought our kids and dogs with us and everyone had a blast. The house is well decorated and clean. The pool was pristine and the land was wonderful. We saw deer, an armadillo, and cows. The hiking trails were fun too. All in all, we had a great time.

Top of the line - ALL THE WAY!

This was the most custom and beautiful rental we have ever stayed in. The details are impeccable. From the wood work to the rain showers, nothing has been left out. The back deck, pool, hot tub and fire pit were central to our stay and just perfection. Adding a sun sail might be in order as there is zero cover during most of the day and that Texas Summer sun is unforgiving. We brought our own pop up tent that provided some shade. Would stay here and/or recommend this property again without hesitation.
