Only down-side was lrg. frig had an issue with door seal, which affected proper temperature inside frig. Also had issue with multi-cup coffee maker, but property mgr. was very responsive and replaced the unit.

Home on the range
We enjoyed our stay. We fished in the river that runs behind the home. Made s’mores in the outdoor fire pit. We were delighted when we saw the longhorn on the property. Bedrooms are small but clean and comfortable. Kitchen is fully Stocked but we did have to buy sponges and kitchen towels. It was nice to unplug and enjoy family time cooking, watching movies, dancing and playing games. The location is great for visiting New Braunfels, Luckenbach and Fredericksburg. We did have a minor ant invasion in one of the Kids suitcases but hey, she learned how to use the washer! If you love the outdoors, you will love this beautifully decorated home.
