Come experience Texas!!! Located in the middle of the Texas Hill Country, the Wimberley retreat will not disappoint! Wineries, Breweries & Distilleries, oh my!! Some of the oldest Texas Dancehalls are less than an hour away. The famous Gruene Hall is 35 min away. Fredericksburg, Austin and San Antonio less than an hour away. Jacobs Well swimming hole, the blue hole and the Blanco River all less than 5 miles. Float the Guadalupe or the Comal River...about 30 min away. Have a mexitini at Inoz while listening to a live band, head down the road to Mercer Street Dancehall and dance the night away or down the Devils Backbone to the Devils Tavern. Get some great Texas Barbque at The Saltlick. The possibilities are endless.
The space
The home is a 3 bedroom 2 bath home. I listed it as 5 beds because there are 2 sleeper sofas and it wouldnt let me type that. King in the master, queen in a 2nd bedroom, queen in the 3rd bedroom. 2 queen sofas in the living room. There is a spacious deck with a hot tub. It is in a patio home community, but is on 3 lots, so it is pretty secluded. The deck overlooks a dry creek, it is a rocky 40 foot drop, so if you have kiddos, keep an eye out. Resident deer come up to feed daily, and if you pop some microwave pop corn, it tends to bring a fox or two out. 3 miles to the square!! Do some deck sitting or head out on an adventure! The primary bedroom has a king bed and a private bath. The 2nd bedroom has a queen bed. The third bedroom has a queen bed and was used as a study so it is attached to the laundry room and living room. The hall bath is shared with 2nd and 3rd bedroom. There are also two queen sleeper sofas in the living area.
Yes, it is older and has its blemishes, but it has a fantastic deck with a great hot tub and deer eating corn, right next to it while you sit there and drink your coffee every morning. It has foxes that love microwave popcorn and any leftovers you bring home after a night of fantastic dining in the town square which is only 3 miles away! The water is very hard with a lot of sediment. Due to this, we have had to shut off the icemaker in the fridge. We do have a countertop icemaker and now have a water softener. I supply limited amount of pods for the Keurig so make sure to bring your favorite Keurig flavors, and creamers. There is also a "regular" coffee pot as well, no supplies are provided for it. The hard water has taken a toll on the finishes in the tub and shower. They are bleached in between guests. There are also cleaners under the sink if you feel the need to spray them again. The hottub is also a victim of hard water. It is cleaned and sanitized between each stay, but the grit will inevitably show up the next day. There is a grit stick in the corner of the deck that does a great job. There is a small Weber charcoal grill off the deck.
Guest access
There is no TV, but there is wifi. I will tell you that is one thing that people tend to love about it. It makes for more deck and hottub time for your group after a day of exploring! Check in info will be given after confirmation. No stairs, one level.
