We spent a night in the Sunshine Cabin and absolutely loved it! The property is in a beautiful,…read moreremote spot about 20 minutes from Fredericksburg, right in the heart of the Texas Hill Country.
Check-in was a breeze--we received a text with the door code and clear instructions. The cabin itself was spotless, beautifully decorated, and the perfect size for two.
What really stood out were all the thoughtful extras. The fridge and freezer were stocked with eggs, milk, juice, frittatas, egg sandwiches, cinnamon buns, and even frozen waffles. There were cereals, snacks, a variety of coffees for the Keurig, a complimentary bottle of wine, and even a bag of treats for the animals on the property. The bathroom was just as well prepared, with essentials like toothpaste, Advil, band-aids, and bubble bath items. We've stayed in many places, but never one with so many considerate touches.
Driving back late after dinner in Fredericksburg was a little adventure of its own. With the rain and light fog, we spotted plenty of wildlife--deer, raccoons, armadillos, possums, even a cat. Just outside the property, the resident llama decided to block the road until a gentle tap of the horn convinced him to move, while the mini-donkeys looked on. As if that wasn't magical enough, our headlights lit up a beautiful owl taking flight.
After a wonderfully quiet night's sleep (a big plus for us!), we enjoyed coffee and fresh cinnamon buns, followed by egg sandwiches. Later, we took the bag of animal treats to meet the llama and donkeys. The llama happily munched away until he didn't want anymore, while the donkeys were a little more polite--though one would give a gentle nudge if we weren't handing out snacks quickly enough. They were absolutely delightful and made our stay even more memorable.
This was such a relaxing, unique getaway. The cabin has internet, TV, and Roku for Netflix, though we never even turned it on--this place was simply too peaceful to want any distractions. We'll definitely be back to enjoy this little slice of Hill Country paradise again.
