Everywhere I looked I saw a previously unseen detail that was hand crafted and worthy of further investigation. *The outside deck: spanned the whole length of the home which overlooks the Colorado River basin & wide open skies. There are 4 separate seating areas which allowed us to spread out in a number of small conversation groups - one space has a lovely gas fire table! Or more of us could gather together in the larger spaces. *Wildlife! - butterflies, birds, humming birds and more - a flurry of activity to watch and enjoy... *There was also a hammock under the beautiful canopy of a tree strung with fairly lights... it called to me and I answered it's call! *Sleeping accommodations : All were unique and well appointed. Each bedroom has it's own cozy covered porch and full bathroom. There are futons in the loft which we also made use of. The loft area also has a space that is set up for working - if you have to log in to work while you are there. *For this particular weekend, the WWR owners had made us a deal for three meals a day at a fair price. It was a wonderful perk to not have to cook, nor leave the property! All the way around, the hosts were amazing! *It was rainy the weekend we were there, so we didn't spend time at the pool / outdoor tiki bar area.... but we will next time! Looking forward to it !

We only stayed one night as we were on our way to see our daughter in Austin. We would have stayed longer if not for that. Andy, one of the proprietors, was extremely helpful.

There was no wifi while we were there, but this is not the kind of place you should be on wifi. The backyard with the chairs and swings beckons you to sit back, enjoy the view, and decompress.

Wedding venue of my dreams. If you are looking for a venue where you have to do minimal touches…read morebecause the venue itself in its natural state is already so beautiful, then you've found it. Every detail of this place is absolutely gorgeous. My husband and I were married here in April 2024 and we seriously talk about this venue and all of its magic at least once a week since then. We wanted to have a small intimate gathering that had a very organic look. In the spring, this place really comes to life, the birds, the butterflies, the way the light shines through the windows in La Casa De Joy, everything felt like a fairytale. The venue is tucked away in a sweet lakeside neighborhood as well so the drive there in the spring is country roads lined with wildflowers and bluebonnets which was an added plus. We rented the entire venue and had some guests stay in the other houses on the property while we stayed in La Casa De Joy and everyone absolutely loved it. We heard nothing but positive things from every guest. Such a unique venue. Not to mention, Travis, the property manager was an absolute delight to work with. Really so so kind and understanding of our wants and needs and was truly there to answer any questions we had. We will definitely be coming back to relive our wedding day each year with a stay at La Casa De Joy. Truly such a gem of an experience. My highest recommendations to anyone looking to relax, reconnect, breathe and just be present. Go to this place!!

My cousin and I needed a quick getaway to reset and relax and this was just the vibe we needed. We drove in from Austin which took about an hour but we stopped at the HEB 20 minutes out to stock up. Be sure to follow the directions given to locate your glamping dome. We actually only spent one night but it was so comfortable and clean and very welcoming. They provide the basic necessities for showering and even big spray. The hot tube was a perfect way to melt away the stress of the week. Highly recommend the experience. I'd love to go back again.

Bad business. Made romantic reservation with wife for anniversary. Heavily researched place and…read moreviewed dozens of business photos. All were peaceful, happy, nice relaxing happy nature getaway photos. The selling point!. Upon arrival was a nice long country trail and then we were greeted by a big disturbing demon gargoyle statue. Creeped us out. Set the tone for whole stay. There is no office or reception. Self check in. Felt so out of place, left within 30 minutes. Felt creeped out. Just us and demon statue. Contacted business to let them know we were disturbed and did not stay due to way place made us feel. Deep in woods with a demons statue. Ew. They were inconsiderate about our stay, charged us full price (over $500) and refused refund or partial refund. I don't care what kind of business you have. Different strokes for different folks. If you are into that cool. But when a place advertises peace and relaxation, but the environment makes you feel completely opposite, and you DONT stay, you leave right away, it would have been fair for partial refund at least. It shows they don't stand behind their business and don't believe in what they sell. Just profit. Disappointed

My wife expects 5 star resorts and she said this place exceeded the typical 5 star experience. The bedding, linens, amenities were awesome. They had live music and great food and drink options at the head cabin. Every cabin felt private and unique and the babbling creek and ponds along the Creekside were so relaxing to sit by with lots of Adirondack chairs overlooking the creek and rocking chairs on the cabin porches. We also chose this place because they allowed my Australian Shepard to come (only some cabins). The whole experience was amazing and only a 5 minute drive to the main strip. Don't miss a tour of Signor Vineyards, a 10 minute drive West. The most beautiful vineyard and cool experience!

The excellent service did did not stop there. We were treated like family, and we really enjoyed walking the beautiful, scenic grounds and hanging out at "The Club" on property! Next time we go to Fredericksburg, we know where we will stay - at Barons Creekside!

To whom it may concern,…read more Was here for a weekend for a wedding and had a great time. Beautiful place to host a wedding and it created a ton of great memories. The area it is in is gorgeous and was not expecting to feel like I was in a different world. Appetizers that were supplied for the wedding were great, but I thought the main meal was kind of lacking and kind of inconsistent. I understand it's hard to cater for that many guests though. Most staff were pleasant and welcoming but had a couple of experiences where we felt very rushed and herded around the property. Despite my concerns this is definitely a special place to get married and a gem on this side of Austin! Lalala, Bob B.

I made a reservation over a week ahead of time to celebrate the birthday of one of my friends and…read morepaid the $25 deposit to hold the reservation. Our reservation was on June 11th at 7:30. We arrived at 7:32. When our party of four arrived, we were told there was no table for us. Even though there were two tables available in the dining room. We were told that those tables were reserved for someone else and we could not sit at that table. We were told that it was another reservation for 730. We were not offered any accommodation, even though there were four barstools at the bar open, except to sit outside on the patio in the 90° heat. We refused and decided to find a different place to eat. It was very shocking that they treated us in this manner as I have been a guest at the Wayback multiple times and never had this experience. It was almost like it was a prank. We went back to the car to find another restaurant to celebrate my friend's birthday. While we are making arrangements for that, I realized that I had paid $25 for this reservation that they were not honoring and I wanted to make sure I requested that be returned. I went back into the dining room at 7:50 and the table for four that they refused to sit us at was still available. Amy, the young lady who said she was "like a manager", treated us as though we had done something wrong. When I went back in and requested my $25 back from her she made some comment regarding my refund tied to whether we gave them a bad review for the incident (one of my friends as we walked out of the dining room, said she would be leaving a review). I called the main number the following day and spoke with Vicky. Vicky told me she wanted to look into the situation and figure out what had happened. I told her the intention of my call was to get my the deposit refunded. She called me back a few hours later explaining it was their fault. She said that there was another person in the restaurant that had my same name and they wanted to move from the patio to the dining room and the staff gave away our reservation to that party. Understandable. She was apologetic and told me she would take care of the refund and also offered to send me $50 gift card through Toast. I'm not even really sure how that works or what that is, but I really just wanted to close out the whole deal. No refund or Gift Card ever showed up. I know sometimes that can take a little bit of time so I waited until the 25th and called back. No one answered. I left a message and did not get a returned call. I called again at about 11 AM on the 26th again no answer. I did not leave another message. I called again around 4pm. Amy, the young lady we dealt with on the evening of the event, answered the phone. She said the people in the office had already left for the day and she would take my phone number and name and somebody would call me on Monday. She called me back about 30 minutes later telling me she needed the card number that the reservation was made under. I didn't really feel comfortable giving that to her so I just said I would wait to hear from the office staff on Monday. Well no one called on Monday. No one called on Tuesday either. I called in on Wednesday and spoke with Vicky again. She said she had gone out of town and doesn't know why the refund was not taken care of. She said she was needed some time to look into it. I asked her to call me back when she had some resolution. I did not hear back from Vicky but today I got an email from toast that a $25 refund to my credit card had been run.... and I never provided my card number to have that refund issued. I do not take any pleasure in writing a bad review for a business. I waited to write this review until there had been full resolution so I gave them plenty of opportunities to communicate clearly and make this situation right. It kept getting fumbled which leaves me with the impression that they don't care about customer service.

I was lucky enough to stay at Wrenwood Ranch for the first time last weekend with my husband and…read moretwo kids for a birthday getaway. It was a lovely stay from start to finish! Our cottage, the Tritch, had two separate bedrooms, and I appreciated the privacy and spaciousness it offered. The cottage came fully stocked with everything to cook on site, but the location is close enough to both Johnson City downtown and Hye, if you prefer to dine out, shop, or hit the wineries. The owners went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. They really thought of all of the little details, including providing fresh chicken eggs(!!), popcorn, ice cream, oatmeal, granola bars, and coffee and tea. There was a communal fire pit, which we enjoyed using at night, and an enclosed puppy park area for pet owners. They also have a beautiful event venue near the front of the property, if you are looking to celebrate something with our without on site lodging. There was an outdoor sitting area just outside of our cottage, where I was able to enjoy my morning beverage in nature. Last but not least, they included free wine tasting certificates in the cottage as an added bonus, score! The feel at Wrenwood Ranch is warm and welcoming, but the separate cottages give you as much privacy as you want. We went into Johnson City and Hye a few times over the course of the weekend, and we were never bored. Wrenwood Ranch is a hidden gem and a great value when you consider all of the extras they provide. We hope to come back and to send our friends your way!

We stayed in the Sunrise and Sunset rooms. We had the full upper balcony to ourselves. If you get the chance, book it. Also book for a cheese and fruit tray. Just WOW. It was lunch one day. We could not finish it. I cannot fully express how great the setting is and how wonderful the view is from our rooms.

Very comfortable and enjoyed sitting on the porch with a great view. The included breakfast was good. We got to experience the full breakfast on Sunday morning and the continental breakfast on Monday morning. Both were good at a level you would expect from a place like this. All staff were accommodating. It's a very peaceful setting...nice and quiet. It's a few miles into Fredericksburg, but that's OK to get the rural effect of Rose Hill. We will definitely return, in fact, my wife is planning a stay there with the "girl friends from the Dallas area. It seems a bit pricey, but when you consider any accommodations, you get what you pay for. I recommend Rose Hill Retreat.

I reallllllllly wanted to give this a better rating, because I had heard and read great things. Let…read moreme preface by saying, the facility is very cute. We booked the King Alexander room, but were changed last minute to the Queen Elizabeth. We are on the tail end of a getaway weekend, so we wanted to rest and relax on our last night, before we go home. Pros - We were the only ones there, so it was nice and quiet. The beds were very comfortable. Cons - We were the only ones there, and had no one to help answer questions about the town, or help us when we couldn't get our TV to work (football games). We brought a sound machine, but had we not... you would be able to hear EVERYTHING in that house. Also, there was quite a bit of lights from the front of the house (outside) that flood the room at night. It was very bright. My biggest frustration came with the service. Usually they serve breakfast, but because the owner (I think?) was injured we got vouchers to the Bluebonnet cafe... sounds great ... except it's closed until January 2nd. We rely on yelp for quite a bit, but it would have been nice to have a human around to give recommendations of another local place to eat. It just wasn't a very traditional B&B experience. Everyone who left reviews said how awesome the food was ... and we left with empty stomachs. What a bummer! We ended up just packing up and heading back home. I certainly feel like I overpaid for what I got out of this experience. All in all... we were able to relax on our last night, and the B&B was very clean and cute. But I think next time we will just stay in Fredericksburg another evening.
