Oct 13, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### BEYOND EXPECTATIONS! Not enough adjectives actually. Breathtaking view, impeccably clean, open spaces inside masterfully decorated in hip current contemporary decor, every possible amenity imaginable plus more to assure our total comfort, from assorted snacks, drinks, electric fireplace, heated toilet seat-bidet, ..just totally incredible. All glass front facing Pedernales and miles of acres welcomed the dawn and 'brought the outside in' as far as views of the vistas. Hosts were always responsive and addressed any questions. This place is so unique, it's hard to describe. It offers a true respite from 'city busy crazy life' : silence and tranquil peace amid the grandeur of the many acres in view except at night when the crickets' hum and bullfrogs' songs are hypnotizing. We appreciate the reasonable fee and totally hope to return. ##### jane h. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Scott H.

Hosts were awesome; very responsive and accommodating. The house is fantastic, very modern and clean, remote but not far from town and attractions. Very peaceful and inviting. Every detail is well thought out. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here, and would love to return soon! ##### Scott H.
