Great vacation home! A few improvements needed.

The pool area is amazing! We loved the cool screened in porch and back patio. The kitchen and dining area was large and comfortable. Living room was nice. King size bedroom was great. Cowboy bedroom was small but very comfortable. Twin size bedroom is way smaller than it looks in the photos. I would recommend replacing the twin bed in this room with a large futon so the room accommodates two people. The upstairs loft is great for kids/teens. Needs improvement: We were not able to check in until almost 5:00 because housekeeping was not finished with cleaning. Trash bags need to be provided. The pool light needs to be fixed. We were unable to swim after 9:00 because it was dark.

Great Getaway Spot

The Bumblebee Lodge was one of the best places we’ve stayed. The property is well-maintained and the lodge has every amenity you need. I loved that the furnishings accommodated both the very young and handicapped. My kids loved watching some of the very many VHS movies available. We loved all the cute and antique decor. Everyday there was something new to look at and admire. My son and I enjoyed playing the piano. It was lovely walking right out to the pool, swinging on the hammock, enjoying a cup of coffee in the enclosed porch, and cooking on the gas grill. Even though the house is old, not once did we feel the sweltering Texas summer heat while indoors. The lodge is in a great location and a short drive to Kerrville. It is located off a very busy main road, so expect to hear lots of traffic during the day. Still, the shrubs and tree line at the edge of the property afford a good amount of privacy. There is also a small cottage near the lodge that is also rented out and has access to the shared pool. We did have some very friendly guests at the cottage while we were staying at the lodge. Overall, this is the perfect spot with plenty of accommodations for a large group. We would love to stay here again.

Great place for family reunion

The pool was the focal point! We loved gathering around the huge kitchen table for meals. Star gazing on the upper deck was an unexpected treat. The facilities were wonderful and we loved the porches everywhere! Highly recommend 👍🏻👍🏻💖😄

Fun for all ages

This rustic rental is awesome. It is perfect for babies (baby bed, twin with guards). It accommodates older folks with ramps and hand rails. The two best features are the pool and the screened in porch. Close proximity to lots of things to see and do. We will definitely be back to the Bumblebee Lodge Unit A.

Best place for family vacation!

Bumble Bee lodge is wonderful! The pool is huge and so much fun. It has lots of lounge chairs for sunning also umbrellas for shade. The slide was a blast for the kids! . There is a grill for cooking. And a shady table for outside eating. The loft bedroom sleeps 3 and has a bathroom, there’s a king size bed in the mbr and a small nearby bedroom for grandma ( or child) all share a bath. The cowboy bedroom and bath are adorable,. The fully equipped kitchen/ dining area is huge and can accommodate quite a crowd! We had 14 for lunch.! The living room is also large with a piano, tv, and 2 game tables . There is also a comfortable screen porch. The star gazing deck is almost finished.. ( we cant wait to use it on our next trip! We went to the family friendly Criders rodeo and dance on Sat night. ( 10 min) past Hunt . If you want to swim in the river there is access at Hunt and at lake Ingram and dam sliding! We spent a day in Fredericksburg. And San Antonio. If you also rent the cottage like we did it makes a great family reunion! Have fun !
