This is our second stay here. The hosts are the friendliest people you could ever meet. We had a few hiccups but they were there to help. The house was very clean from top to bottom and very comfortable. Kitchen area has just what you need while staying there and the bed was super comfy. We will be coming back next year!!!

This little cabin was perfect for our couples getaway! It’s off the beaten path yet close to everything we wanted to do! The cabin was clean and cozy. Has everything you need if you want/need to cook. Bed was comfortable. Nice quiet relaxing spot! Will definitely be staying again on our next visit to NBTX.

Amazing spot to stay! The house was so cute, the perfect size. Love that they’re pet friendly! The owner was super helpful, fixed an alarm we heard outside within 20 minutes. They even had all the instructions for the house, access, and amenities readily accessible. It was a peaceful, fun stay. Would love to come again!

Property is great and guadalupe close! Door was locked and no phone number. had to hunt vrbo message and internet is sketchy untilyou enter and get wifi- good after that. so after 3.5 hr drive had trouble getting in and they seemed inpatient helping - like it was out fault door was not opening. turns out you haved to push door really hard to make electronic lock work right. not a buggy but should fix. checkin instructions said sore would be open but wasn’t. after we made it in and got wi fi all was ok. cabin is good and as pictured. small thing but 3 keurig pods for 2 people for 2 days is not cool. we had to find keurig pods . I would stay again but couple of little things would have made this a Great stay. Nancy

Quiet and clean stay. The tiny home had all we needed. We loved that it was quiet and enjoyed the nature (deer, fox, horses, birds) around us. Great stay for my daughter and me. Owners are personable and relaxed.

So friendly

Above and beyond happy with our stay. Everyone is so kind, and friendly. The accommodations are perfect for your home away from home. I simply can’t say enough good things about our stay & their level of care. Peaceful, quiet, location that is still close to everything you need. Plenty of great walking areas for our dogs.

Wonderful tiny house!

I stayed for a week with my 2 boys. So much packed into a tiny place! We loved it. It’s in a pretty rural location away from everything which I loved. The house was clean. The beds were so comfortable. My boys slept better than they do at home. My 10 year old said it was his favorite place we’ve ever stayed. Both boys said they wanted to stay all summer, ha! There is no washer/dryer on the premises, which is clearly stated in the description. That’s the only thing that would make it better. I packed accordingly and it was not a problem! Candy is a very responsive host!! Really great experience. Loved it. Hope to be back again!
