I love the hotel and the grounds. I wish I had known of the trails onsite so I could’ve brought proper hiking shoes. I enjoyed the whimsical property and I would 100% return in the future. We enjoyed the pool and the reading room. The staff were friendly and accommodating.

This is a cute location with a good concept but they had projects going on and stuff everywhere. There was a sewer odor in our room, the view was of trash, junk and misc project items. The dinner and mixology class was cancel at the last minute, breakfast was canceled at 7am, and the room was tiny with no where to put anything. The property is located right off the road and there was road noise all night and you can hear the other guests. It wasn’t what we had hoped and decided to move locations. Staff were nice, good with communication and helpful but some things are out of their control. I’m hope they get their projects done, things cleaned up and issues resolved. It could be a fun place. Ask questions before you book! *photos of our scenic view

Great stay! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Hubby and I had a very quick stay; just one night. Our room was clean and perfect for the two of us. It was super easy to check in and out. The only complaint I have is that when we went to get our coffee and breakfast in the morning, the electricity was off and we couldn’t toast our bagel. The view from our room was incredible; serene and tranquil.

Quiet property just outside town of Wimberley. We had a quaint, clean room overlooking the pool. Beautiful view. Excellent air-conditioning and no complaints other than they could use a keurig coffee maker in room. It's a short walk to lobby for free coffee so not a big deal. Lovely, friendly staff and would definitely come back!

Excellent Small Hotel With Killer Views

Excellent choice for a stay in the Wimberley area, including San Marcos, only 15 minutes away! We loved the hotel! It was clean, modern, spacious, and the views from the rooms were AMAZING! Check-in was easy and breakfast bites were included. We were offered free yoga classes and mixology classes, but we were there for a Texas State University graduation and therefore didn’t have time to enjoy them. The pool was lovely although we didn’t have time to swim either! We will definitely be back, and will recommend this place to everyone we know. Oh! Also, the beds and pillows were extremely comfortable! Loved it!

A relaxing stay!

We had an amazing time! Everything was so clean and easily accessible. Information was clear and we had no troubles with check in. Our only complaint was with the AC. We came in and the unit was set to 80 so we could not sleep our first night because the air conditioning was not cooling the room efficiently. Once we were able to turn the temperature way down, it became comfortable. But this was not an ideal first night being in my third trimester of pregnancy. But other than that, everything was great and a wonderful time.

Hidden gem! Will definitely be back!

Cozy, clean, modern, personal. This place feels unpretentious and thoughtful. Lots of considerate details to make the stay enjoyable. Both log fire pit and gas, yeti cooler to use by the pool, great hiking trail and lawn area. Loved the reading room upstairs as well! We absolutely loved it and will be back!

It was mostly enjoyable…

The Wi-Fi did not work during our stay, causing the TV to be unusable. Also, we ran out of hot water after 1 shower. The beds were amazingly comfortable and the view was fantastic. We enjoyed the bar and reading room.
