Great family vacation

Excellent communication from the host. He made sure we had everything we needed, even went as far as having amazon deliver baking pans for us! Location was central to everything we wanted to visit and found great hiking as a bonus. Highly recommend!

Great location

The property was very well kept and clean. The location was ideal with a quick walk or short drive to all the places we wanted to go. The lights in town were amazing! We would definitely come again and recommend this place to all!

A real nice getaway

The Bluebird was very nice and clean. There were unexpected pet friendly amenities (dog dish & crates) for our Corgi that were unexpected and a pleasant surprise. The bed was very comfortable and the hot tub was very relaxing. Proximity to the places we wanted to visit was just right. Also, on the first night I spotted a HUGE mule deer buck across the street through the large kitchen window. Would recommend.

Pre-eclipse trip w friends

The house is beautifully appointed, nice backyard and hot tub. Two places to park cars!! That’s a bonus! within walking distance to restaurants, downtown and LBJ boyhood home and park. It was delightful place to stay. We did not bring our dogs but they had everything needed to accommodate them. Great place!!

Perfect Wine Weekend Getaway!

Where do I begin! This was the best VRBO experience I have ever had. Eric was great in communication and the small details were noticed! Including using my last 4 digits of my phone number for the door lock code, so smart. The house was beautiful, very clean, and smelled great! I am always a little leery about a hot tub but again it was perfectly clean and smelled like the correct amount of chemicals The beds are comfortable with an assortment of pillow softness for everyone. We did not bring kids with us this trip but they thought of the families too! Games, kids dish-ware, towels and blankets galore. We hope to come back to this area and will definitely be using them again!!

Adorable home with fantastic location

As my friend said upon arrival, “this place is adorable!” This was my second time staying at Bluebird. Lovely, clean and well-laid out floor plan. Great, secure yard for our dogs. I do wish there was more grass back there, but the drought this summer has been hard on everyone! Excellent location—we walked to wine tasting as well as dinner each night. Will definitely stay again.

Johnson City Stay

This was the absolute perfect location for our get-away to see the Christmas tree lighting count down. We would have been able to walk to the activities if it the weather hadn't been so bad. We will for sure stay again. Thank you!

Quaint little house

We absolutely loved our stay at the bluebird. It was a gery last minute trip to just get away and spend some much needed alone time with my husband. We had plenty of privacy and just enjoyed relaxing. There's enough to do in the area and it's not far from several larger towns, but has the quietness of a sweet small town. Truly enjoyed our weekend!
