Whispering Ridge Ranch I Swimming Pool, Hot Tub, Dogs, Hill Country Views

This was a nice, clean home in a great location — only about 8 minutes from downtown. The view from the back patio was a real highlight and made for a lovely setting.A heads up on the location: the Vrbo map makes it look like the house sits right off the main road, but it’s actually a little ways in. Still very convenient, just not quite as described.We didn’t end up using the pool, which was disappointing. It’s not directly adjacent to the house, so walking out to it at night wasn’t practical with the pool light not working. Hopefully that’s an easy fix for future guests.The one significant issue was the upstairs bedroom — it got hot, and the broken blinds meant there was no way to block the sun and cool it down. We ended up not being able to use that room at all and shifted to the bunk room and the main floor bedroom instead. Worth noting if you’re traveling with a larger group that needs all the sleeping spaces.Overall a solid stay thanks to the cleanliness, location, and the patio view, but a few maintenance items (pool light, broken blinds) kept it from being a 5-star experience.

Beautiful place! But, it is not walking distance from the square (4 miles away). We enjoyed the pool, hot tub and views. We had a wonderful time! (The dryer did not work! We were disappointed because it stated there was a washer and dryer and we like to have the clothes washed during our stay. The walkway to pool was grown up and needed mowed, the pool area has no lights, the upstairs bedroom was hot and needs a window unit, the stairway was very narrow and hard to get luggage up) other than that, we loved the place!!! It was beautiful!!

Nice property. Owners need to do some landscaping work around the pool and behind the house. The pool area is a haven for mosquitos and snakes with it being overgrown. For an area where kids play this should be cleaned up. Great location and managing company was easy to deal with.

The best part was the view.

We had such a wonderful stay! The house was spacious, giving us plenty of room to relax. The scenery was absolutely beautiful—peaceful, secluded, and incredibly relaxing with almost no neighbors in sight. While we didn’t get to use the pool due to the cold weather, the hot tub more than made up for it! Overall, it had everything we needed, and the location was just perfect. We will definitely be coming back!

Dinner plate was put away in cabinet was dirty. Dish washer is not anchored in kitchen (comes toward you when you try to open the door). Dish washer doesn’t properly drain (see previous comment). All of our party were over 60 yrs old (2 over 70) and there is no mention in the description about needing to climb a tight spiral staircase (with luggage) to reach the 2nd king bed bedroom. Anybody with mobility issues might want to take that into account. No Wi-Fi password in the info packet…had to call a call center in Asia to get the password!

Beautiful view

The view was beautiful. We loved that the house had so many things to accommodate our stay from kitchen utensils to toys and games for the kids. It was the perfect house for my husband and his parents and our children.

Checkin was super easy. The Kitchen was great for all our cooking needs. Wi-fi was great!

Great house and view. Had to trim some veg on the way to pool. Great pool and waterfall! Good grill. Overall, great place.

Great house for family gatherings.

The house was marginally clean and the water pressure was poor. The house also needs repairing- rotten wood etc.The location was good.

Very quiet and nice view. A little hard to find and should note steep gravel road before driveway. Needs a deep clean/touch up painting. Dishwasher not anchored in and main kitchen faucet needs replaced. Specify that second king bed is upstairs. Lots of kitchen supplies and coffee options.

Very peaceful place to relax.

Overall good stay. House did need minor fixes.

We always have a good time getting together but this property was in terrible condition. Following are what we found and some things are dangerous: Spiral staircase is only way to access extra beds Empty soap in shower Dangerous (dark) outside stairway to house from driveway No keys in doors to exit in case of emergencies (except for front door) No lamps in living area Need lighting on steps Lights in bathroom upstairs broken Towel rack in upstairs bath broken hanging off wall Overhead light fixtures upstairs broken Comforter in upstairs bedroom was dirty/had stains Dishwasher not secured to floor Extended room upstairs twin bed has broken wheel Need instruction book to operate Jacuzzi Stairs loose including railing on front of house Wall plug in dining room has short in it. Loose and coming out of wall

The property views from the house, backyard, and pool were beautiful. The kitchen was well stock with everything for cooking and entertaining. The living room, game room (first floor), master bedroom and dining areas we wonderful. On the negative side, the upstairs bedroom was very hot. The game/bunk room had a window air conditioner and kept the room ok. It needs some repairs both outside and inside (some wood rot, towel hangers pulled out of the wall, water feature into pool inoperative, deck lights wiring cut, etc.)

The house was perfect and the views were breathtaking!!! There were a few minor things that need a little TLC...like the kitchen faucet, coffee makers, the half bath, and the water filter in the refrigerator. Other than that everything else was great!!!

Great house high on a hill with views all around. The house has a split bedroom plan with a large entertainment/eating area in the middle. There were lots of games for all ages and the pool with a large covered seating area was perfect. The management company was one of the best we’ve ever dealt with and we would definitely rent this house again. If you want views and privacy, this is the house for you.

We had a difficult time choose a house for our short trip, but finally ended up choosing this one because if the view we saw on the pictures. Well the view was even better in person! The house was child friendly which we absolutely loved because we have two little ones. We loved that host had so many things available for us to use in case we forgot anything from home. The pool and outside areas were amazing especially drinking coffee in the morning on the balcony! We had a little issue with the ACE but as soon as I contacted the manager they were able to fix on the spot! They answered any questions I had very fast. We had an amazing time all around the house. From being outside in the pool and jacuzzi to playing in the pool table on the game room and even baking in the kitchen. This house really had it all. I would definitely recommend this place to more people and come back again!
