Starry Hilltop I Stargazer's paradise outside Wimberley!

Good location. Isolated. The yard was unkept. Weeds growing high which made it easy for the creepy crawlers. The inside of the house was great. Clean. Spacious. The kitchen is fully stocked. We did have two scorpions inside the house, a few spiders and a big tarantula in the deck area. Which shouldn’t be a surprise for the area.

Quiet place for our family! Will come again soon

Beautiful property. Very clean and comfy. Will book again for sure

We grabbed this spot last minute for the long weekend, and I am so glad we did! It is a quick drive in from San Antonio, but it feels world's away. Beautiful hill country sunsets, great stargazing, and plenty of land for our kids and dogs to explore. (We brought hiking boots for the terrain-they came in very handy) The area was rich with interesting rocks, minerals, and fossils. We brought a mini telescope & were able to get some great shots of the moon in the mornings! We loved that there was no wifi and we could focus on connecting as a family. The library was impressive and far more extensive than I could have hoped for---great book picks, right up our ally. There were plenty of great family games, and we played several throughout our stay. When we were sleepy or it was hot outside, we cozied around the DVD player & watched Little House on the Prairie.Big kitchen, fully stocked with utensils. Great long wooden table for meals, as well as plenty of outdoor seating as well. Beds were comfy, sound is well insulated room to room, and the entire house had a very cozy feel.

Scenic views and quiet location - made for a great getaway.

The grounds were beyond calming and serene. The state of the rental was the perfect compliment to the warm and tranquil outdoors landscape. Will definitely be coming back!

We really enjoyed the peaceful setting and the inside of the home — it was clean, comfortable, and well-stocked. The host was responsive and thoughtful, providing a great selection of books, games, and DVDs, which helped a lot during a week with flooding in the area.That said, the outdoor space didn’t match the listing photos. The yard was extremely overgrown, which made it unsafe for our kids to play — especially with snake concerns. The outdoor kitchen area also felt unkept, so we didn’t feel comfortable using it. Because the weather kept us at the house more than we expected, these outdoor limitations made a big impact.The house itself was very clean, but a few towels had visible stains, which was a small downside. Overall, it’s a quiet and scenic location, and we’d consider staying again.

Pros: very quiet and peaceful setting, kitchen is appointed nicely with all newer appliances, plenty of books for kids and adults alike, open spaces were nice. Cons: cleaning only appeared to have been done through the high-traffic areas of the home. Dead and live bugs and mounds of dust found underneath ottoman, benches, chairs, etc. overall upkeep of the grounds is very poor and does not look at all like the photos. The fenced in area is all overgrown and unkept, so if you have any ideas about letting your kids or pets run around in that area to play, you might want to curb your expectations of that. Previous guests pet hair was found on the master bedroom comforter, and a few of the couches. We decided to re-wash the bedsheets as finding black dog hair on the supposedly “clean” comforter was a bit unsettling. Coffee pot was not clean upon our arrival so we re-washed that. All in all we would give this rental a 5/10. The potential is definitely there for this to be a fantastic property, however it just falls short due to inadequate cleaning practices and lack of general upkeep of the yard. I even contacted the host prior to us booking to inquire about other guests experience with the un-cut grass that I had read about in some of the other reviews, but even having done so did not result in the grass being cut for our stay. I wish the property owner/manager cared a bit more about that issue, but it’s clear that they are set in their ways about how to manage the property.

This place was fantastic for my wife and I to get away for the weekend. We will definitely be back

Went very well

Great place to stay and get away from it all

This is such a nice place to stay. It's super peaceful with a great view off the back porch. The inside of the house is cute and cozy. We brought our kids aged 11, 7, and 5 who all had a great time. They have board games and some toys for kids. It was clean, the beds are comfy, and overall we had a great experience. The host accommodated us when we wanted a last minute extra night. The only thing that was a minor issue was the grass was growing really long over the walk way.

The house has a nice view and the home itself was clean. However the property has not been taken care of. The grass was so tall as it looked not to be maintained for months. You could barely walk to the door because of the over growth. Because of this the property is not useable or accessible as what you see on the listing. I’m glad I didn’t have kids with me because they would have not been outside at all. I choose the house because of what I see on line but it’s not what you get!

This house reminded us of a place we used to go to all the time with friends! We love this place and will be back!

Pros: seclusion with no Internet or cable. Well appointed kitchen. Games, books and videos. Beautiful view. Cooling system works well. Cons: unkept vegetation with many stickers and burrs. No grass. Gate is broken. Bugs, scorpions and spiders indoors. Didn't even stay the night due to the cons.
