Misled by 800

The property was nice. The cabin was the perfect size for 2.Upon arrival, we did not get the wine and snack basket like the picture. The kitchen was not well stocked with cookware; what was there was old and worn. Bathroom towel were dingy and the toilet seat was very loose. The bed was extremely lumpy, pillows were flat and were stained with who knows what… No blanket, only a sheet and a top spread that was unwashed and had food stains. Bed creaked and was noisy. Lastly, we had noisy roommates in the walls (we think birds) that chirped all night. Not the 800 weekend getaway we expected. Horrible to think I paid for hotel quality, but got deluded. Never again!!!

Staying close to Pedernales Falls

Rustic cute place for 1-2 people in the Hill Country; close to PF state park; Trees!; Quiet.It was too hot to tent-camp, so this was a great place right in between Dripping Springs and the PF State Park. The balcony was lovely to sit in the mornings and evenings.

Nice little spot

The house was small, cozy and worked exactly as intended as a home base to sleep and get ready for the day. Only issue was water pressure in shower, otherwise it was great.

Peaceful location

We enjoyed our stay. So very quiet which is what we were looking for. Gun shots, but it is texas and im sure a hunting season. Didnt bother much, but a surprise. Not handicap accessible. Loved the shared areas. Since its winter, I guess why there wasnt any bags for cornhole and only one horseshoe. I think it will be BEAUTIFUL in the spring and summer. Would like to have known there was an outside grill. And also a microwave. Would love to see that updated. Only a mini fridge but worked out fine. Please check the water in the bathroom . Couldnt get the temp right in the shower. Also the mattress, cute uncomfortable. Dishcloths would be helpful. I would bring my own towels next time. Also more blankets and better pillows.The cleanilness was good. Overall id rate it a 4 out of 5.

Perfect retreat

Very well kept up and clean. Each morning there was deer just hanging out and we could see from our porch. Another great thing was the way each of the tree houses are positioned. They’re angled out so if you look out the window you’re not looking at the other tree houses window. The treehouse is about an hour away from circuit of the Americas, so it was a great place to come back too, and well worth the drive after a day, being surrounded by large crowds. Only thing I would suggest is for each treehouse to have its own unique door code to unlock. We arrived really late the first night and wasn’t sure which one was ours since it was so dark. Then we opened the door to what we thought was our treehouse using the door code in our email. But immediately realized it wasn’t ours that we had booked. Thankfully we got it right on the 2nd time.

Couples Getaway

This cabin was perfect for a long relaxing weekend for my husband's birthday. The location was close to Pedernales state park. The cabin had everything we needed and was just the right size for a couple. We enjoyed sitting on the porch and swinging in the swinging, under the house, after a day of hiking. Beautiful property!

Great potential

Overall, our stay was good however the property did have some things that were in disrepair such as the patio chairs and bed’s firmness as disgusted in other reviews. The property was very clean. It’s charming little area! I would also suggest a loveseat instead of a single chair for two people seating.

Great Stay in Dripping Springs!!

We stayed for Labor Day weekend, 2024, at the Nautical House (part of the Arbor House group of houses) north of Dripping Springs. The location was great to visit Pedernales Falls State Park, Sundance Hill Farm, Texas Hill Country Olive Company, as well as breweries, wineries and distilleries. The best part of the house was its location. The back deck looks into the woods and with many trees hanging overhead, making for wonderfully peaceful mornings for coffee and equally peaceful evenings looking at the stars through the tree branches. And the number of stars you can see in the country is amazing compared to city life. The house was very clean and had everything we needed for the weekend. Hill Country Premier Lodging was easy to work with, communicated clearly and responded quickly with any questions. We would not hesitate to stay there again if our travels take us to Dripping Springs. We highly recommend it!!

Sweet Romantic Getaway

We were looking for an intimate space to spend our anniversary and we found it. Far enough away for a quiet weekend yet close enough to enjoy farmer's markets and wineries.

Last Minute Get Away

Very quiet and peaceful surroundings. We spend hours on the treetop balcony watching the birds, squirrels and deer. Just minutes away from Pedernales Falls State Park and enjoyed a day of hiking and swimming there. Definitely want to come back with more friends and take advantage of the whole group of treetop cabins.

Relax

It was private and you could touch the trees from the deck. Enjoyed our stay very much. It was quaint, clean and private. Any suggestion I would give would be a new bedspread/comforter. Seemed and looked very old, and better lighting on the stairs. I'm a gardener and walked around the peoperty and made a nice pile of fallen branches. Don't want to sound at all like a complaint because it was very enjoyable. I would like to come back and rent out all of the cabins for a little family reunion

Great location near Pedernales State Park

It was nice. I like to visit Pederneles State Park, but it is very hard to get a camp site there. This cabin is only a 5-10 minute drive away. It’s nice and quiet with a nice deck for relaxing at night and in the mornings. I also found a brewery only 5 minutes away too. Quite handy.
