About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

En-Deer-ing Pet Friendly Retreat 🐕

Comfortable stay for couples, close enough to downtown, even closer to the deer! Stroll to the creek or golf course. Or just have a glass of wine with those deer.
While you're here, try one of the 30+ taps at Chupacabra Craft Beer, or tour Salado Winery, or check out music at Axis winery. It's only a 5 Minute drive to dining, wineries, breweries, and happenings; or a 5 Minute walk to the scenic creek; or just a 5 Second stretch from watching deer on the back porch. After a day's outings in nearby lakes, events, shopping, golfing, antiquing, you'll love stretching out and preparing for another day's excitement!

Note: There are additional fees if you have more than one dog, or IF YOU DIDN'T INFORM VRBO you are traveling with a dog. Please see house rules for more information.

Peaceful in Salado!!!

Property is very quiet and "safe". I had my 2 pommeranians with me and they loved it. Staring into the backyard and watch the deer was fun. Living room, kitchen, bedroom and bath well appointed with everything you need, and clean!!!!... Location perfect for walking the dogs by the river. You can take the back stairs down to the river for strolls. GO ENJOY IT!!!

Business Golf Shopping Trip

Our stay was a combination business and pleasure trip during the week. This unit is a hidden gem! The minute you open the door you feel like you’re home. The indoor space has everything you need and is very clean and comfortable. The outdoor patio is perfect to enjoy your morning coffee or evening glass of wine while watching the deer & birds. Dependable internet service for remote work, and conveniently located to downtown Salado for shopping, dining, and events. Very close to the golf course. The Hosts…Cindy and Todd…were very responsive the night we checked in to ensure we had everything we needed. Great place to stay! Will definitely stay again!

Cute Condo in Salado

After a short snafu about entry, the rest of my stay was easy and just what I needed. The property was very clean and I'm a stickler for cleanliness. It was easy to access. You park right in front and walk right in---no steps. The furniture seems changed in the living area since the photos, but I think it's an improvement. It was very comfortable and had a great TV. Kitchen is tiny, but who really cooks on a short vacation? Bathroom and bedroom are nice. The only thing missing is a place to put your clothes. The hangars shown in the photos have "walked off" and there are no drawers or shelves for folding clothes. That said, I would recommend this place for its great location, cleanliness, decor, ease of access, safe surroundings and the fun of watching the deer each morning while having breakfast. Definitely top of the line

Time to relax

The property was perfect for us. We wanted a low-key time to relax. The condo had plenty of room, a great bed, and adequate kitchen supplies for the meals we chose to prepare during our stay. The location was great with access to the creek, restaurants, and shopping just a short drive away. It was a wonderful experience.

Great location, fun watching deer

The condo was clean and cozy for myself and 2 sisters. It was centrally located which prompted us to rent the condo. The rainshower showerhead was nice as were the soft towels and sheets. The check in and out process was simple. The condo was reasonably priced. On the VRBO website, the owners advertise “breakfast included”, a Murphy bed and bathrobes for guests. The breakfast consisted of a few packages of instant oatmeal and with that, the owner told us to enjoy our awesome breakfast. The Murphy bed was actually a fold out couch with springs one could feel through the thin mattress. There were no bathrobes. If one wanted to watch network television, this is not the place to stay. Normally we wouldn’t care, but since it was the World Series and a Texas team was in it, we were very disappointed to not be able to watch it. We attempted several times to communicate with the owners. They answered part of our questions but ignored the rest.
