Perfect place to stay

My husband and I brought our 17 year old daughter and her best friend for a few days in the Hill Country. This cabin was the perfect place to return to after a day of exploring Hill Country swimming holes and Schlitterbahn. It was a short drive to all of our planned attractions but it’s a lovely country drive. I was able to cook multiple meals, having everything I needed in terms of cookware. We enjoyed our morning coffee on the patio each day. It’s quiet and peaceful and we really enjoyed our stay. I didn’t know that there was a problem with the upstairs air conditioning unit until we embarked on our trip but Michelle provided several fans and the teenagers were able to make it work. The downstairs bedroom slept like a dream. I would certainly recommend this little cabin.
