~ Other things to note ~

Please remember that you're staying in a house, not a hotel. Please treat the space with respect. If any problems arise, we will do our best to take action ASAP, but there is no one living on site 24/7.

Be advised we are actively working on improving the farm. The latest project is a 300-yard swimming and fishing pond.

If you wish to use the fire pit please bring your own firewood. We do however provide charcoal for the grill.

Nice stay

I think the only thing I would have changed was turning the AC on a few hours before the guest gets there. Every thing else was fun and nice.

Great family getaway

The house was perfect for entertaining the whole family. There are lots of living areas so everyone had plenty of room. The location provides easy I-35 access to San Marcos or New Braunfels. It was nice to relax and see some animals we don’t normally get to see.
