No hot tub
Advertises a hot tub, however it was not available and should have been told at time of booking.

We're so sorry that you weren't able to use the hot tub. The hot tub is in working order, and it looks like we don't have any phone calls or emails from you during your stay. We would have loved to help you with this during your stay. We hope you made it home safely and that we have the opportunity to host you again.

Our first stay on a TX ranch was 5 Star
We like quiet, being in the country, birds, wildflowers, trees. Add to that a spacious, attractive, well-equipped cottage, even snacks and water to make us feel even more welcome. Sunflower Ridge was a delightful cottage for our last nights in the Texas Hill Country. We were close to Wimberley and San Marcos, not much farther to other towns and several State Parks. Wildflowers were spectacular on the ranch and on many, many roads we wandered. High recommendation for Pedernales Falls S.P. near Johnson City. Neither my daughter or I wanted to leave Sunflower Ridge or the TX Hill Country.

Quiet, peaceful, cozy cottage
The cottage was very nice, clean, and cozy too. Nestled in a comfortable quiet setting, the cottage had all the comforts of home and the surrounding property is peaceful and very beautiful. Great location for going shopping in Wimberly, playing around the Canyon Lake area, and just an hour jaunt down to San Antonio. We enjoyed our stay immensely, we only wished we could have stayed longer! Would definitely come back if ever staying in the area again.

Absolutely Adorable!
The cuteness of this cottage was beyond my expectations, even after seeing the photos online. It is absolutely adorable! My family and I truly enjoyed everything about it. Waking up to deer in the yard and the secluded, quiet atmosphere was just what we needed. We will definitely rent it again!

Girls weekend
The cottage was the perfect place for our weekend! Located about 4 miles outside of Wimberley, it was a great place to come back to (after a day of shopping) and unwind! The back porch was a perfect place for the evening sunset and listening to the sounds of nature! Would definitely stay here again!!

As advertised. Fantastic vacation rental!
We loved the house. They have considered any need you might have. Clear instructions. Beautiful, quite, convenient property. Light switches were labeled (that's a bonus that I always love.) Will definitely stay here again if I come to the Wimberley area.

Next time, I'll filter VBRO listings for longer cancellation policy.
We couldn't make our booking because my youngest daughter tested positive for COVID-19, the weekend before I get back CT scan results for my cancer treatment. We were well outside the cancellation window, so I understand the host's decision not to refund. No accommodation whatsoever was offered. Next time, I'll filter VBRO listings for shorter cancellation windows. I've decided it's a critical issue for us.

Hi Alan, we can certainly empathize with your situation and we apologize that we might have giving the impression that we did not care. Our cancellation policy inside of 30 days of arrival does not give leeway for a refund. The best we can do is open the dates to allow someone else to book the property, and refund for every night of their original dates that it rebooks. Unfortunately, that property did not rebook for your dates. No matter where you stay or who you book with, purchasing traveler's insurance is never a bad idea. VRBO's insurance is pretty great for this sort of protection. We are sorry we could not do more. We hope you and yours are doing well. Thank you, Hill Country Premier Lodging

Beautiful property
We enjoyed our stay and had a good time overall the location is good it's close to Wimberly market and conveniently located. The only complaint I have is that the hot tub wouldn't heat as much as we had hoped it was more of a chilled tub. Other than that we would definitely stay here again.

Sunflower Ridge
This listing is not nearly as appealing as it appeared. One would think it’s an isolated house on the property. Not so. No flexibility with a 4:00 check in and 11:00 checkout. Not impressed.

Hi Frances! Thank you for staying with us. We are sorry to hear that you felt misled by the listing- the photos include the evidence of other houses near by and it is also mentioned in the description. They are an easy walk but not intrusive. We would love to make early check ins a possibility! Occasionally, they do happen, but with tight turn arounds, our housekeeping and maintenance teams need that time between guests to prepare the property. Thank you for choosing us. We hope we have the privilege of hosting you again soon. Hill Country Premier Lodging

The property was very clean and very well kept. The location was great just outside of Wimberly. The hot tub was great for relaxing after a long day seeing the hill country.
