Property was perfect, the creek was nice, the house has plenty of room for everyone. Close to Lost Maples Park. House was older but well kept and clean.
We are a family of 8 and this house fit us perfectly. We loved the large living space. There was plenty of comfy seating and space to spread out. We enjoyed the spacious back porch and backyard and spent every night by the fire pit. The kitchen was fully stocked with just about everything we needed to cook every meal here for 3 days. We also used the charcoal grill for burgers one night. The sound of the water from the spring was so peaceful and the view was lovely! The beds were comfy, the linens were nice, the showers were hot. We would have loved to give this place 5 stars, but had just a few hiccups. We were unable to get in contact with the host for over an hour during check in, since we never had any check in information sent to us prior to the stay. It took us calling VRBO to get in contact with them. If you have Verizon, you won't have any kind of service here, or anywhere even remotely near here. However, the wifi works great, but no texts or calls while here. Thank heavens one person had t mobile and was able to call the host when we needed help getting in to the home during check in. We were told that due to the drought we could only do one load of laundry... that was after we asked for the washer to be fixed because it was disconnected and said to be broken initially. One load of laundry for a family of 8 from out of town... not ideal. Lastly, the one TV in the house is older and blurry. They did have dish satellite but no other smart features. Overall though, we do feel like this was a 4 star stay.
If you are looking for anything remotely close to a Utopian experience, this is the place. The area and property are spectacularly beautiful! Walk out back and down the stairs to the Sabinal River directly behind the house and you will find slow moving water into gin clear pools with a natural spring flowing from the rocky shore. We had seven adults in our group and all enjoyed a private bedroom (3 couples & 1 single) with plenty of bathroom space to get ready each morning. The location was perfect for our visit to Lost Maples State Natural Area and short road trips around the area. Take hwy 337 over to Leakey and enjoy some of the best views in the hill country. While there, don't forget to stop by Gypsy Sally's for great burgers and margaritas. Overall, we loved this property and will return on our next visit to the area.
Loved how isolated the property was. The house was large enough for our group and accommodated us well. Great getaway. Jada was a spectacular host. Will definitely use her again.
The location was perfect for our group! There was still enough water to cool off in even though we’re in a drought. Would absolutely rent again if we come back this direction!
We all enjoyed our stay here, the outside area is great! Kids loved the river.Lost Maples Park is 10 minutes far from the house, can not be closer. We plan to return!
I can't believe I forgot to leave a review earlier. My friends and I stayed in late July for an annual getaway. The house was very comfy and spacious for the 4 of us. And the porches were so inviting. But the best part by far is down by the springs and near the river. We spent all day each day there and just took in the peacefulness of it. At night, we laid on the flat rock near the river to watch for shooting stars. A crazy storm came through the first night of our arrival and knocked the power out for a little bit. The host was already on top of it when I sent her a message and we had power restored shortly after. It added to the specialness of the weekend, as we enjoyed sitting out on the deck in the dark and quiet, catching up with each other with fewer distractions around. In general, Jada was super responsive and the instructions for check in and check out were clear and easy to follow. We have already recommended this place to others offline, and we definitely hope to be back.
Secluded and great location on water
This was a beautiful property! Perfect for our annual family of 8 vacation.
Stayed on the river all day. Kid safe area so very little supervision required. Beautiful, fun Sabinal ... just the family. Very relaxing.
