Great property for our annual girls trip. It’s our second stay and we loved it just as much as the first time. The living area is so comfortable and the kitchen had what we needed. All the beds are very comfortable and the bathrooms have been updated wonderfully. The neighborhood was quiet and convenient to shopping and dining.

Clean, Spacious and Beautiful

We booked this place during my daughter's wedding in Boerne. The place was well organized, the kitchen had everything we needed and the rooms were spacious and clean. There was more than enough space for our family of 6. Every room was well decorated and the there is plenty of lighting in all the rooms. I would highly recommend this place for anyone looking to spend time with their family while visiting the area.

So nice!

The house was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for a great stay. It’s beautifully furnished and we enjoyed playing ping pong and crochet in the huge backyard. We were able to walk to Main Street from the house.

Wonderful property - checks all the boxes!

5 comfortable beds. 3 great bathrooms. Close enough we walked to the downtown shops. A wonderful walking path nearby. And the layout was perfect splitting 2 bedrooms on one side of the house and 3 on the other. Only items of concern: living room chair is missing some screws and one leg is unstable (easy fix), and the dining chairs seem a little rickety but not bad.. Thanks for the perfect girl weekend.

Great Place to Stay

Myself, my husband, and my children came into town to celebrate my mom's 90th birthday. This place was within walking distance of downtown Boerne. It was clean and had all the amenities that we needed... including three full bathrooms and a fully stocked kitchen for cooking. We were comfortable and will definitely rebook if we are coming again for another event in Boerne.

Perfect home for a getaway

We loved staying at this property. The house was perfectly appointed with everything we needed. The bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious and comfortable. We enjoyed hanging out in the comfy living area with plenty of room to lounge around. The backyard was spacious and would have been great to hang out in if we hadn’t been so busy shopping Boerne. 😊 Will definitely book this house again!

Girls trip

The property was very clean and ready for our group of 7 women. With an open floor plan, 5 bedrooms, and 3 bathrooms, it suited our needs beautifully. The property appears to have been remodeled and updated recently and we all agreed that it was very tastefully done. We used it as a home base for our Boerne excursions and were happy to return each day to relax, play games, and catch up with one another. Responses from the property manager were immediate and check in was very easy. We had a most enjoyable time.

Thanksgiving in Boerne

This property is exactly as advertised and very clean! (No bugs as indicated in an earlier review!). We enjoyed 3 nights by the fire pit. And there was plenty of space for our family of 7. One thing I appreciated was a well stocked kitchen, including a some basics like salt, pepper and olive oil. The beds were comfortable and we had plenty of hot water when 7 people were getting ready at the same times Loved being able to walk into town to get breakfast tacos and coffee. Would definitely stay here again.

Home away from home

We LOVED staying at this place. We came for our wedding, and it truly felt like our home. There was plenty of space to spread out and everything was decorated so nicely. It was cosy and the backyard was so enjoyable to relax in. The one thing we wished we had was a scraper for the grill. It was pretty charred over. Overall would highly recommend! We will definitely be coming back.

Fantastic Updated Home within Walking Distance of Downtown Boerne

Wow! Everyone in our group was amazed at the house. It has it all - completely updated! We had six adults with us (2 were couples) so everyone had their own bedroom and bathroom. The beds were incredibly comfortable - I actually meant to check what the brand was before we checked out. Kitchen is fully stocked and had plenty of paper goods. Backyard was a perfect place to spend the evening after a long day. We had a bonfire every night and if we had had the energy, we would have played ping pong. It is walking distance to Downtown Boerne Main Street. Traffic on the weekend can be crazy so to be able to walk to Main Street was a blessing. Highly recommend this house! We will be back!
