Wonderful Home
We had an obligation in Bandera, and stayed at this lovely property. We enjoyed our coffee in the garden each AM. The home is updated, but still a throw-back in time, with the lovely decor and antiques in the home--brought back fond memories. We will be staying again for OTX camp drop-off/pick-up.

Incredible little getaway
The Zapata’s property was incredibly clean and welcoming. The house had the cutest decor inside and outside. There is also a cardinal that does wake-up calls if you sleep in the master bedroom. He is the cutest! Highly recommend. We enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful Garden and cute house
We had the extended family stay here in order to go to the rodeo in Bandera and to the Rancho Cortez Dude Ranch over Memorial Day weekend. The house is really well decorated. Feels like a country cottage. The gardens are amazing and a great place to relax. Unfortunately, the water levels in the creek out back are still pretty low, but the teens enjoyed hunting for tadpoles and watching the deer come into the field at night. My only two caveats would be to note that the "big" beds are still only queen sized (a king would have been nice in the master) and the owner lives right next door and likes to keep a close eye on things. Additionally, there is someone living over the detached garage next to the house. All very nice people, but if you prefer your privacy on vacation, like we do, then it's a bit too close for comfort. Otherwise, the house was comfortable, and the owners include many different amenities (e.g., snacks and coffee on arrival, access to laundry facilities, fresh towels in the closet) which make this a nicer place to stay than most rentals. I would recommend it for a small family or group of friends.

The property was great. We are outdoors people and the property, especially the "back yard", were outstanding. We loved riding the hills on Harleys, and then coming to relax while cooking outside. Great stay.

Excellent property for a family
This property had it all! Fully furnished kitchen that was even stocked with beverages and candy dishes and some cooking staples. We loved the creek, the swing, chairs everywhere to sit and relax. The open yard for throwing a ball around or running was great too. Little one loved the stash of dress up clothes. Beds were very comfortable and the decor was charming. We loved being in our own little world and the owners were so kind and helpful without being overly pushy. Highly recommend! If you are on the fence at all...... trust me..... does not disappoint! If I had 1 bad thing to say..... it is the cardinal that pecked at our window every morning. Husband was not impressed by him lol

Cute creek side house
Great creek side property for a small group. The pictures of the house do not show how beautiful the gardens and grounds are - so that was an added benefit of our trip! It was like a butterfly garden! The creek is wonderful for my three year old to play in and my dog had the most fun too. Kitchen is well stocked which made cooking meals so nice. Owners are on site I. The main house and so welcoming and accommodating. Thank you and we can’t wait to stay again!

Awesome place
We stayed here through New Years and we were very pleased from the moment we pulled up in the driveway. House is in a nice quiet area minutes away from Bandera. The house is super clean and meticulously maintained. The property owners live right next door and are super nice. Stacy made us a pot of Chili for our first night. The creek behind the house just adds to the relaxing nature of being there. We are coming back for sure. I almost did not even want to write this review so we could try to keep this place a secret.

Amazing Property
Property was a perfect get away. The house and owners are both great. The home is beautifully decorated and the grounds are gorgeous. We saw so many butterflies and hummingbirds in the gardens. Roasting marshmallows in the fire pit, playing games as a family, and watching the frogs and fish in the stream were some of the highlights. The town of Bandera is nice, and we enjoyed visiting City Park (with a number of swimming holes) and the Natural History museum (home to Trixie the dinosaur of Night at the Museum fame). We really enjoyed our time here and plan on coming back again.
