General overview
Wimberley has been written up hundreds of time over the years as the best small town to move to, best small town to visit, cleanest water etc. Wimberley is located in Hays county, which for years, was the fastest growing county in America. There's a reason that THE Paul Simon lives here - sometimes he graces the local radio station and he has been known to show up to a local open mic night

Our home is perfect for families! There’s a bunk bed in the kid’s bedrooms, so everyone has their own cozy spot. Kids will love the toys, both indoors & outdoors. Stay fit in our home gym with weights & cardio. Need to get work done? Our dedicated home office is all set up for you. And when it's time to relax, enjoy a soak in the tub. Whether you're here to relax or seek adventure, our place has everything to make your stay unforgettable!
We have a pack 'n' play and a high chair that you can use and the house is toddler proof with cabinet locks, toilet locks installed and baby gates and door knob covers provided
We have cat that I'd prefer to stay here, she is sweet indoor/outdoor with a cat flap and her own area in the office (she may want to sit in your lap while you work or just lie on the desk and look out the window). We also have 2 dogs that we can leave with a pet sitter
The space
Our home was built in 2021 and is bright open and airy with white walls, 10’ ceilings throughout, an open floor plan, original artwork, and an eclectic MCM vibe.
Our home is fully family friendly because we have a 2 & 3 year old. We have: blackout curtains and white noise machines in all of the bedrooms, a pack 'n' play, high chair, baby gates, door knob covers available and cabinet latches and toilet locks already installed for complete peace of mind. For your young child’s entertainment we have a pottery barn play kitchen, toy shelf with Montessori inspired toys, activity cube, cars, stuffed animals, doll house, books for 5 and under. Outside we have a 14’ trampoline, a jungle gym for kids 5+, 2 toddler slides, a water table, and a large collapsible pool
The children’s rooms are decorated with colorful art, have blackout curtains, a nightlight, a rug, bookshelf and a floor bunk bed with detachable ladders so even your youngest child can’t roll out of the bottom bunk while sleeping or climb to the top and hurt themselves. In one room we also have a changing table and a rocking chair.
If you are into fitness our garage has been turned into a home gym with a lot of natural light and a window unit for AC and a space heater. It has gym quality dumbbells 5 - 100 lbs that we bought from Anytime Fitness, we also have an Oly bar, plates and collars, a gym floor, pylo boxes and medicine balls that we bought from a CrossFit gym, an elliptical, a peloton, a stand up Everlast punching bag, yoga mats and foam rollers and a smart TV for music, fitness classes or to watch while you do your cardio.
