We love the outdoors. Beautiful pond for a little fishing.
I was disappointed with how hot the bedrooms were and the living room was so cold. The sleeping conditions were terrible for air flow.
This was exactly what we needed, only not near long enough. We enjoyed the peace and quite of the country. We were in for Round Top and could not have asked for a better place to stay. The y were attentive and responsive, we look forward to returning
Nice cabin in a quiet area. Pretty setting.
The location was very nice and secluded, you had plenty of privacy. The cabin was rustic and felt very cozy. At night it was quiet and you could see the stars.
Great location, clean, very comfortable cabin, big fish in the pond and an awesome guard goose (very friendly). We will be back!!
Nice quiet cabin in the country. Loved the wraparound porch, view of wildflowers and Henry the goose. The cabin has comfortable furniture and is nicely decorated. Linda was great, we had her over for coffee and a visit. The porch swing after a day of touring was wonderful. We’ll be back for sure!
We have such a relaxing weekend. We enjoyed the cabin, fishing and sitting on the porch watching the sunsets. Definitely in the country just the way we like it!! But antique shopping is nearby in Carmine, Round Top and Brenham has some wonderful shops and things to see. Good barbecue at Truths BBQ near Brenham. We would definitely stay here again!
Very secluded and quiet. Large LR and gbe bedrooms are spacious as well .
Great out of the way property. We were able to escape the hustle and bustle and relax with absolute peace and quiet. We had everything we needed for a wonderful weekend.
Very nice cabin. Nice quiet get away.
This was the perfect place for a weekend getaway. Cabin was perfect size for our family of four. We enjoyed every moment from sunrises to sunsets. Our kids each caught their first in the pond! Short drive to both Brenham and Round Top. Many memories made! We plan to stay here again!
