The kids loved the place, they didn’t want to leave, huge space with swings, hammock, treehouse, and best of all peace and the hot tub pool. The outside patio areas were so nice. We will definitely be back. The staff was super timely. We have been staying in different homes around the area of Wimberely since 2020 and this is at the top for our family of 5.

Five of us gathered for our annual reading retreat, and this property was the perfect backdrop for relaxation and girl time. The host was incredibly responsive to all of my planning questions, and the house was warm and accommodating. We cooked, read, napped, laughed, and explored. We thoroughly enjoyed the wraparound porch, the hot tub, the cozy sitting area downstairs, and the close access to Wimberley's cutest restaurants and shops. Would absolutely stay here again!

Wonderful stay

We stayed at Shepards Lodge for a family wedding at Montesino Ranch. It was the perfect location and close enough to go back and forth over the weekend. The house was clean, spacious and well equipped. We enjoyed the pool, hut tub and spacious decks over the course of our stay. We had plenty of room for our family. Highly recommend this house and was taken care of by the Vacay staff.

In December, so it takes a while for the hot tub to heat up, but it works, and was enjoyed. The pool pump ran 24 hours which as a annoying in such a quiet setting. The fireplace worked, it was fun. The rooms are not as big as they seem on line, but the house was very nice. We ate outside once, very nice under the lights, especially if you BBQ. We saw deer, fox, cats, goats, turkeys, chickens, and more. Ice maker and fridge water were not working, ice trays were provided! Would stay again!

We came in for a wedding with two families. Great outdoor space for groups to hang out. The pool was perfect for a hot day in Whimberly. Close drive or walk into the Whimberly square. A few items that were addressed were fixed right away from the management company.

Great Place!

We rented this home for the weekend to celebrate my son’s college graduation, and it was the perfect choice. The house was clean, comfortable, and peaceful — exactly what we were hoping for.The pool was a great bonus, especially for cooling off in the warm weather. The surrounding area is beautiful and relaxing, with the river nearby adding to the charm. One of the highlights was waking up each morning to see deer running across the property on their way to the river — such a peaceful and unique touch.Overall, this was a great place to stay for a special family weekend. We truly enjoyed our time here and would gladly come back in the future.
