Country stay

Very nice, out in country away from all hustle. Nice place and I am already making plans for a return. Property is still close enough to town for restaurant access.

Bandera Stronghold Red Cloud is a beautiful, peaceful, romantic place. My husband and I fell in love with it, enjoyed the hot tub, the privacy, the creek, we got there Friday night and left Sunday morning. The Hot tub was a plus. Can't wait to go back

Great little cabin

While the the cabin may be small it was absolutely perfect for my wife and I. It was so quiet and peaceful with an abundance of wildlife to see right outside the door. The owners home was close but you would never know and don’t let that discourage you. I never met Tricia but communicated with her via text. She was incredibly pleasant and helpful. I did meet Jon outside and he was a great character and very welcoming. The town of Bandera was exactly what you would expect of an old western town and even had a reenactment shootout on Saturday. I will never need to visit anywhere else in Texas just straight to the stronghold for a quiet time with Tricia and Jon. Thank you both and we look forward to visiting again in the future.
