Ottine Vacations from $317

Great place - with the sweetest little guest houses - perfect base with the perfect vibe to explore Boerne and the Texas Hill Country

Be aware of the following: The bathrooms need MAJOR updating. I’m talking the cracked/loose tile, missing grout, and yellowing wallpaper are like something out of a 1981 horror movie. Drain cover missing. Mold growing under the caulk in the shower. The tile is deadly slippery when wet! Yikes! It’s like they got halfway thru the remodel and gave up (or ran out of money). The exterior of our building (#3) was scary with the yellow light bulbs and the crumbling second story walkway. Buyer beware: there is no elevator to the second floor rooms. You can opt-in to a first floor room if possible. Imagine dragging your full suitcase up the stairs…it’s comical. The food at the on-campus restaurant was “ok” but I would recommend going in to town and eating somewhere else. You will need to drive between your building and the clubhouse/front desk, so bring your own vehicle. I can’t even imagine if it was raining. Honestly I would consider the accommodations more of “Motel”-like with exterior doors, dark, dimly lifted stairwells and walkways. Not sure why they are not updating this place fully after almost 45 years. Oh also the “king” beds are NOT standard size. Anyway, all that to say i would come back if I could confirm they have any rooms with recently updated bathrooms. The location and the pool atmosphere was great. The clubhouse is beautiful and the live music was fun. So I’m torn on if I’d stay here again but not sure there is anything better in town.. Maybe a VRBO?

Booked this property for a week for my son’s graduation. This place was very overrun with kids, which is great if that’s what you are aiming for. However, it was quite challenging for us. The staff did not do a good job reining in the kids- e.g. there were 6 kids in the gym that was supposed to be 16 and up, but no one around to tell them to get out. There were kids in the hot tubs, even close to when they closed. Ordered drinks at the pool, and they were okay. Loved the lazy river, but would have also liked there to be a little more attention to kids there as well. If you have kids and want them to run wild- this is definitely the place! Grounds were beautiful, which made me wonder how they managed to keep them that way- best part of the place.
