Quick trip

Some of the pros of staying are:Kids had a great time. Loved staying near the river where the kids had easy access to kayaking and paddle boards. They also loved having the ability to fish whenever they wanted. The cons were: The inability to have a fire at night in a fire pit, it was chilly at night. We also felt like we were being watched. There is a house that sits right next door and it would be impossible to have any privacy if they had been home or would come outside. We appreciate the fact that they rent it out so we can enjoy it. Not sure if we would ever right there again just because of location to our needs.

With temps over 100+ at home, this quiet and cool retreat was a well needed break and the family want to make it a yearly trip.

Lovely home, lovely hospitality

The thoughtful details by Lori made what was already a perfect stay even better! River access and outdoor seating is second to none. Our weather was cloudy and cold(ish) but it didn't stop us from fishing and kayacking. We'll be back in the summer time. Thank you to The Browns. It was awesome.

Perfect trip!

We loved this house! The location is perfect and the house was very welcoming and comfortable. The river access is perfect!! We fished non stop, used the paddle boards, and inner tubes! We have rented in Kerrvjlle before, but this place can not be beat! Our family loved our time! The stars at night were incredible and we loved all the wildlife too — hummingbirds, deer and tons of fish! We definitely want to return! Lori is super helpful and responsive as well!

A most relaxing vacation

We spent three nights at Cypress Flats the first week in June and everyone agreed it was the most relaxing and enjoyable trip we have taken in a long time. The kids swam and fished all day long while my husband and I read, napped, sunbathed and took it easy. The property and the surrounding area is some of the prettiest country we have ever seen and we enjoyed long walks and drives (exploring). Looking forward to a return trip soon!

This place was so awesomely I'm so happy that we came here! The house is big and is equipped with everything you'll need! The master bedroom is huge and I love all the sitting areas! My four boys had a blast in water kayaking and tubing! The owners are so thoughtful and helpful! Thank you for the basket and wine bottle! We plan to come back!

Great family weekend

The house was well-stocked and comfortable for our group of 8. We appreciated the comfortable dining areas inside and outside, the charcoal grill, and the firepit area. Our kids, aged 9 to 14, really liked having their own area in the "sleeping porch." The creek was warm and clear, so we spent lots of time kayaking and snorkeling from the dock. The house was clean and comfortable. Lots of water toys and the washer/dryer were a bonus.

Amazing waterfront house!

The views were amazing from this house! Tall bluffs face clear, calm waters. The wall of windows make you feel outdoors even when you're inside and include an up close view of the bird feeders that bring in hummingbirds, cardinals and woodpeckers. The house had everything we needed to have a really fun time: kayaks, float tubes, grill, etc. The location wasn't far from the wineries, Kerrville Folk Festival and other attractions. Would definitely recommend this rental!

Riverfront perfection

This sweet home was perfect for our family's spring break. It's quiet location (zero road traffic but not too far from town), backing right up to clear water on the Upper Turtle Creek, made for the best relaxation. Despite the cold weather this weekend, we enjoyed some fishing, kayak/paddle boarding (boards at the house), and bird watching. Our favorite parts about the property was the sleeping porch with 5 twins bed (so each of our children could have their own) and the big cozy chair situated in the corner along the back wall of windows. We will definitely plan to visit this property in the summer.

Great Family Vacation Spot

Beautiful water behind the house, my almost 5 year old caught (and released) about 100 perch in one weekend and was absolutely thrilled. My husband caught a couple of bass and was also thrilled. Grandma & Grandpa loved the memories of fishing, relaxing, BBQ & game playing. The house is comfortable and convenient. Always felt like the hosts were just a phone call away. This is our second time here & we will likely be back!

Beautiful Property and So Fun!

House was so clean and very well-stocked. We spent most of our time outside - just sitting and enjoying the beautiful scenery, the hummingbirds, the fireflies at night, on the water (in kayaks, SUPs, floats, snorkeling.) Our party had 2 older adults and 6 young adults. There was always something for everyone. Lori was very helpful in answering every question we had. We would definitely come back!

Can't wait to come back !

My family and I really enjoyed our stay. Everything was perfect ! There were 2 kayaks, 2 Stand Up paddleboards, and a huge variety of inflatable floats and tubes that provided us all with hours of fun on the creek. We all took advantage of the fishing poles provided and enjoyed some catch and relase fishing. The water access was super close to the house and easy to get in and out of the water. It was the perfect spot for our kids who range in age from 4 to 16. The water is clear and refreshing, and perfect for swimming. The host left us a nice welcome bag, and a well stocked house. We can't wait to come back !

Loved our stay..

I cannot express how happy we were to found a place like this!! We were on the road for hours, with innumerable pitstops and you know how things are with little children. But when we checked in all that exertion from the day just went away...it was a little piece of heaven we found! The owner has really put in a lot of effort to keep this place so clean and tidy. I even found a baby stairs gate and it was like totally sold. They have been so thoughtful about everything in the house and even the littlest detail made sure our stay was extremely comfortable. The house is built next to a creek and we did a lot of kayaking and the kids had such a good time. We would absolutely stay here again.

Clean and well-maintained

We had a great stay at Cypress Flats! The pictures don’t do it justice! It was so calm and peaceful out there with plenty to do. We swam, canoed, kayaked, floated, bbq’d, and just enjoyed each others company in such a serene place. It was also amazing watching the night sky and listening to all the wildlife both at night and in the morning. Our guys caught plenty of big and small fish and enjoyed themselves thoroughly. The water was so clear you could see the fish from just about anywhere. We really enjoyed our time out there and look forward to another stay in the future! The Browns really love their home and what they do and it shows!! Thank you!!
