Jan 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great getaway A bliss hideaway among the Mountain View and perfect for a short getaway. The home was cozy and had all amenities needed. With all its charm I would say pack light. Taking large luggage up the spiral staircase is a battle but possible. There is a hot plate convenient to warm water but meal wise I would prep. Or enjoy a local spot. All in all we full enjoyed the stay and look forward to coming back again ##### Jennifer I G. Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brittany L. Nov 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful place! We stayed here one night on our way to Big Bend and we were so blown away by the cuteness of the place! The kids loved having their own room upstairs. All the beds were so comfy. My only qualm was that I wish there were a physical sign upon entry indicating that all 3 heating/AC units needed to be on the same mode or they don't work. We figured that out from the VRBO message from the host but my dad did not and stayed at the other unit and never got the heater to work and was freezing all night. Need a physical sign upon entry. Otherwise, fantastic stay!! ##### Brittany L. Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jennifer D. Dec 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cute place that is not meant for cold weather This container tiny house was lovely and the bathrooms were amazing!! When we arrived, the front door was not locked. This made us a little nervous, but we could tell it was empty. The unit has a tankless water heater, which was brilliant for 5 people. I would only advise a max of 4 people stay there as the couch bed was very uncomfortable. The worst part of our stay was that the heaters did not work. There were 3 units and they were all blowing cold air the entire night. There were no instructions left on how to use the units so the next morning when we reported this to the management, we were told “you should have tried….” An instruction manual would have helped to eliminate that problem. ##### Jennifer D.

Jul 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Excellent space, there were some dead bugs around, but we were happy they were dead! :) Only complaint is there was only 1 plate, everything else was there that we needed. ##### Marsci O.
