    We had a great time here. The cabins were very spacious, full size fridge, comfy beds, Wi-Fi, air conditioning and private bathrooms. This is Glamping !!! We stayed 2 nights and sat by our own fire pit visiting each night. It's a family environment, in the "country". Great location too! We spent one day in Gruene, and shopped at the San Marcos at the outlets.

    I spent a day and night at Son's Geronimo. My friends and I had a nice time. We stayed in two different cabins. The cabins have two queens and two twin size beds. A kitchen with a center counter/table for preparing and eating meals. Cups and mugs are provided, and washing soap and sponge to wash the dishes in the sink. Next to the sink is a large standard refrigerator with a freezer. There are plenty of cupboards to store dry food. A microwave in the cabin as well. AC and heaters are in the cabins, with remote control so the guests can make adjustments. A 55" TV is mounted on the wall. Front doors have a keypad to gain entrance. There's a restroom with a shower. Towels are provided. On the back porch, there is a covered patio with a picnic bench and wicker chairs. In the front of the cabin, there is a large metal fire pit with several wicker chairs surrounding. On the side of each cabin, there is a BBQ. In the middle of the cabin grounds, there are game rooms. Pool table, shuffle board, ping pong, and others. Outside, there's a basketball court, horseshoe pits, volleyball court and an area with a swimming pool, wading pool, and a tiny pool. A short walk to the river where there are kayaks and other entertainments. Each cabin has parking for one vehicle. There's parking in other areas. I rate Son's Geronimo 5-stars because there's a lot to be offered to their guests, and because we had a good time.

    Making the fire!

    Nice quick adventure... lots of things to do if it was warmer weather.. the fire pit was nice.. they have a onsite person that chops fire wood for perches.. This is glamping it is not solid structure, it was loud and stormy all night BUT that is apart of the adventure! October 29/30th 2023

    I am writing this review based on an incident with bed bugs and the truly bad customer service or lack thereof that followed. I stayed in Cabin# 2 on Apr 4-6th with my mother and we both thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cabin was nice and we had a great time relaxing. During the stay my mother and I both received a few bites but did not think anything of it as we have no experience with bed bugs. After returning from the trip I broke out all over my body with bites. On April 11th it was so bad that I went to the doctors and they told me it was bed bugs. Apparently bed bug bites can keep appearing up to 14 days later. That same day I called Son's Geronimo and informed them of the bed bug situation. I had asked to speak to a manager because I just wanted to confirm it would be taken care of so this didn't happen to anyone else. I wasn't upset, I understood bed bugs can happen. The woman I spoke to asked me to send photos and information to the site email so her manager can take a look and call me back. Later that same day I sent all documentation to the provided email. I received no msg or call back. On May 10th I emailed again requesting a follow up and still heard nothing at all. In the middle of May despite having cleaned and taken preventative measures for the possibility I brought bed bugs home I began receiving bites at home. My luggage had been right by the infested bed and I ended up bringing bed bugs home. Upon looking back at the situation we realized that the bed my mother was sleeping on had a plastic mattress cover and mine did not. Which leads me to believe that they were aware of the bugs in the cabin at some point and that they spread. She was bitten only a few times where I had over 20 bites. After not receiving any contact back I was concerned that Son's wasn't addressing this and handling the infestation so I contacted the department of state health and reported the situation (following their website guidelines) on May 28th. I also emailed Son's one last time notifying them I had sent in a report. I again did not receive any email or call back. On June 20th I called Son's again and asked to speak to a manager. I was transferred to Kiara and despite the fact that I started the conversation off nicely she was immediately hostile and rude to me. She immediately referenced that I had reported them to the state health dept and when I said I did because I hadn't received any contact from them she said an email had been sent on May 30th saying that they inspected the unit and there were no bed bugs. I had never received the email so I asked her to resend it to me and she said she cannot because it was already deleted from their account. During this whole time she just kept asking "what did I want out of this conversation" and was very rude. I asked her for a copy of the inspection report from the pest company and she said she does not have to legally give me that. I then asked again for her to at least send me what was said in the original email and she said she would if it would make me stop, however I still have not received anything. She again kept saying what did I want out of this so I told her I would like a refund for my stay since I have spent hundreds of dollars and tons of time dealing with this. She said they couldn't give a refund since I stayed both nights and didn't report it then. I explained I didn't know the bites were from bed bugs yet but I had received them while there. Her exact response was "so you got a couple of bites while CAMPING". She ended the conversation by asking me if this was over and if the calls and emails would stop. I have never had such a horrible experience with anyone in customer service, and will never stay at another son's location again due to this experience.

    DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! The so called birdhouse cabins and property amenities at Sons Geronimo are not as advertised on the website or facebook page. There is no kayaking and paddle boards onsite, these cabins are not on the water and not like the pictures, the pool area and cabanas are a joke! We arrived and checked in on Sunday 6/29. We immediately regretted booking a stay here. Our cabin (#5) looked as though it was previously broken into. The doors did not fully close or stay closed unless the lock was latched. A big cockroach greeted us. The bath towels were brown and seemed dirty. There was mold on the back wall cover. Just disgusting!! We brought our concerns to the office about not feeling safe and asked if they would work with us on a refund. The workers stated that they have a strict no refund policy and that the manager was not available. How convenient for them. No one ever reached out to me to follow up. We gathered our things and choked up the losses and found a better, more safe location to stay. I do not recommend this place! I'd rather stay in my car.

    Cabin was clean and nicely air conditioned. Pool was great and being able to take out kayaks and paddle boards made it even more fun!

    Ask the Community - Son's Geronimo

    Can you tell me if there is any water in the river right now or is it dry? This won't change our reservation but would love to tell our family to book.

    Geronimo Creek has never been known to have gone dry. There’s plenty of water, just like normal.

    We spent our evenings in the grilling, sitting around a fire pit, roasting marshmallows, and enjoying our family time.

    We came during December, so it's hard to really take it vantage of everything this place has to…read moreoffer, but it was an amazing stay nonetheless. It's a lot cheaper during the winter, and during the week. But my kids still loved all did this place had to offer. The scenery, the location, the activities are so worth it. Cons There was no shampoo or conditioner, you have to clean up for yourself even though there is a $75 cleaning fee, there are way too many cats and it's gross when they come in your door if you leave it slightly open for more than a second, they are frightening at night, there is no clean water to drink, they advertise cabins that accommodate eight but it's truly only six with you bringing your own bed for the remaining two, wi-Fi is poor, no towels on loan from the inn. Pros Low price in the winter, beautiful scenery, gorgeous cabins, lots of outdoor activities even in the winter like basketball, volleyball bonfires, bowling, connect four, fishing, lots of great indoor activities for kids like pool, ping-pong, Jenga, places to cook out, lots of hammocks and outdoor seating, great outdoor deck overlooking the river, accommodations for various parties sizes like teepees. If you go in the summer they have free canoes to use, paddleboard's to try, river swings to jump from, and tubes. It was easy to access, you can go straight to your room with a code, and it's has great outdoor hiking areas. They even have a hot tub. Honestly it's the views that make this place worthwhile. I had a difficult time choosing between this location, the River Road location, and The Guadalupe River location, they all seem pretty similar. But for the price and amenities, the Geronimo really is the place to go. In the winter when it's slow season it's even more amazing because we truly had the entire place to ourselves. There were no other people here that's pretty cool! There is a grocery store about eight minutes from the cabins to grab firewood or coal, meat to grill and marshmallows to roast. This is a great stay for any family friends or couples. Pro tip stay in the sweet medicine cabinet, it's furthest from the road, closest to the river, has a true stairwell to the loft, and close to the extra bathrooms.

    This was, without question, the worst customer service I have ever experienced…read more The property did not match what was advertised, and when we reached out for assistance, we were met with a dismissive attitude and no willingness to offer any reasonable accommodation or solution. The pull-out sofa was broken, and there were no sheets or bedding provided for it, leaving part of our group without a proper place to sleep. These are basic accommodations that should have been available. To make matters worse, the first thing you see upon entering the property is a notice stating that they will dispute all charge disputes. Instead of making guests feel welcomed, it immediately creates the impression that they expect problems and are prepared to fight their customers rather than resolve legitimate concerns. I would strongly recommend staying elsewhere. There are plenty of properties that value their guests and stand behind what they advertise. Unfortunately, this was not one of them.

    DIRTY- house has not been cleaned in YEARS. Your experience:…read moreI booked this venue for my family reunion, and was very excited about the house having enough room for all of us and the large outdoor space. It was a bonus that we did not have to bring towels, and sheets, or lawn chairs, however those items seemed to be the only clean items in the house. All bathrooms were disgusting, and had mildew in them. I brought Clorox wipes and actually washed out the largest sink in the house, in order to give my infant daughter a bath. The kitchen was disgusting, and I went through an entire bottle of Clorox wipes remove, grime, grease, and dirt just on counter top. We had to wash everything we took from drawers or cabinets prior to using it b/c the storage space for the kitchen and inside of drawers is filthy. There were roaches in our bedroom. All of the doors and walls had some sort of stain or just uncleaned splatter on them. My sister, uncles and I spent the first hour of our trip just trying to make the kitchen clean enough to set things down. If the owner hires a maid service, they should be replaced immediately, as it is in desperate need of a deep and thorough cleaning. This home has the potential to be a stellar gathering place for large groups, and despite the nastiness of it, we managed to have a good time with one another, but I am overall very disappointed with the condition of the home for the price that was paid. Kristina

    Hands down the worst renting experience I've ever had. We stayed at this location for a joint…read morebachelor/bachelorette party. Before booking we asked if it would be okay to use the property for this purpose. The landlord agreed. We were called at 8 am and told we were too loud the night before, we had the neighbors sitting on their back porch staring at us and loudly talking about us on the phone(presumably to the landlord), the landlord showed up at our house without our knowledge and proceeded to go through our things and attempted to lock us out and is now charging us for nights in the bungalow that we didn't stay. The landlord called me a total of 7 times that weekend. After the first night we stayed only inside and she still complained. The air conditioner upstairs didn't work and it was very dirty. We found a fake nail on the bedside table and dried blood on the living room ceiling. If you want to stay somewhere that is filthy and have someone constantly calling to complain, I'd stay here but if you want to have fun I'd look elsewhere.
