Great place for family get away
Nice home that is different to the normal track home on a quiet street, on some land, with quirky yard art & a nice pool. The deck view is really pretty and has a nice breeze. Had everything we needed to cook and tons of board games for family entertainment. The new HEB near by was super helpful. It was comfortable and we felt at home immediately.

Great Location & Clean House
Great spacious house. Was very clean inside. Pool had clear water but a little green growing on the sides. Not a big deal but it was noticeable. Everything worked but the wooden deck outside needs a little maintenance as it is rotten in a few spots. Floor inside the house is a little wonky in places, likely resulting from the house settling over years and years. But that's just nitpicking because the price wasn't super cheap. All in all, I would stay here again. Right down the road from Deep Eddy's which I recommend visiting.

House is okay, pool is great
Private pool was very clean and well-maintained. House was spacious but quite old and had some cleanliness issues when we checked in, which Vacasa (property manager) did not resolve. I would not pay the premium rate for this property unless you plan on getting a lot of use out of the pool. I will avoid Vacasa-managed properties in the future.

Family Gathering
Overall, the space worked for us. Plenty of comfortable beds, large family gathering area and seating for meals. Pool was very enjoyable. Why the low ratings? Many dishes in cupboards were dirty. We found the dishwasher to be the problem; it doesn’t work very well. We resorted to mainly handwashing - not what we want to do on vacation. Inside of kitchen cabinets not well cleaned. Not all kitchen cabinet doors close properly and some have large cracks. Opened oven door and immediately closed it - not clean. Master sink faucet not working properly. Laundry room has a very foul smell. Child’s underwear and large hairball found in the middle bedroom on closet floor. Towels provided were well used and dingy (except pool towels). Hallway floor creaks very loud right in front of one of the bedrooms. Worst - across the road lives two dogs off leash. They chased me and my granddaughters while we were out for a morning walk. I had to protect them and scream at the dogs. They finally went home but it was a scary situation and the kids were crying. We could never let them go out front, even to take the trash out. My son was able to talk to the owners the next day and they agreed to tie them up. We shouldn’t have had to deal with this! I really thought going the VRBO route would provide us a top notch home. Boy were we wrong. The photos online do not match the reality of the property. This place is not worth any where near what we were charged. Extremely disappointed.

Cozy Place to Stay
The house was roomy and cozy. It had plenty of beds. Unfortunately, we did not have an opportunity to enjoy staying there because of the pickleball tournament. We were out most of the time. The only concern I had was the location which was a little far from the Dreamland, pickleball facility.

Lovely home! We were 10 adults in town for a wedding. The home was clean and neat and the deck was a perfect place for morning coffee overlooking the pool and wooded property. The deer weren't too bothered by having us there :)

Wonderful home and atmosphere
We had a great weekend! The home is just as advertised and in the perfect location. Close to lots of great distilleries and restaurants yet you still feel secluded and like you’re in the country with plenty of space to yourself. The pool area is beautiful and we had everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to others!

Dripping Springs Vacation Spot
What a surprise on how nice the local Dripping Springs area is to visit…. Many amenities close by considering we felt we would be out in the country. Our house was on 15 acres and looked secluded - but were 5-10 minutes away from grocery stores, restaurants, movie theater, distilleries , etc. Our property had plenty of room, great yard for games, nightly ping pong tournaments and swimming pool that was enjoyed by all.

Lovely vacation house
We had a lovely stay at the house. Couldn’t figure out where the 4th bedroom was but we spotted that there was a second story you had to access from outside for the additional room and bathroom. The house was clean, had a well stocked kitchen and vacasa was very responsive with anything we needed. The pool was amazing and where we spent most of our time.
