Great outdoor soace

The property was super easy to find. The host communicated quickly when we had questions. The outdoor space was well groomed and had comfortable adirondack chairs around a gas fire pit. It was a perfect space for hanging out after a day of wine and shopping.

PERFECT LOCATION!

My best friend and I stayed here for our annual get-together and were able to walk to wherever we wanted to go in town. The place was lovely and the fact that we each had our own room and bathroom was the cherry on top. There is both a front yard and back yard outdoor space for just relaxing, which we took advantage of in the morning for breakfast and the evening with a glass of wine. Highly recommend!

Comfortable

Great place for my wife and 2 teenagers to spend a couple of days. We had everything we needed and host was great and nearby if needed. Beds were comfortable and kitchen well supplied. Rained too much for Cornhole, but I loved seeing the boards and bags there. Covered parking was a big plus. Thank you!

Wonderful home!

My husband and I were delighted with this charming and well equipped home. We stayed in Johnson City for a family wedding. Glad the house had a hairdryer, iron, microwave etc. Easy walk to a great coffee shop next door. We visited several local wineries which was fun. The host was a great communicator. Highly recommend this very clean and adorable home.

Just the perfect little nugget for our group!

My husband, adult daughter, grandson and myself visiting from Austin to celebrate daughter’s birthday. Wonderfully clean, nice sheets and towels, comfortable beds, and bedrooms nicely appointed. Really nice showers! Weather so nice we spent time in backyard and also sitting in front porch. So close to coffee shop and town for restaurants. Very cute town with interesting shops and a brewery. Would go back again!!!

Relaxing Oasis

My friend and I stayed at Little Dipper for 2 nights as a side trip from Austin while visiting my son and his family. We spent the first day checking out some places in Driftwood and the second day in Fredericksburg, Luckenbach, and a winery on the way back to Johnson City. A great base for a hill country getaway. Very private rooms. Each of us had our own “wing” with separate bathrooms. We enjoyed sitting in the backyard on the patio in the evenings. I plan to stay here again when my husband comes with me next time.

Little Dipper delight

We stayed here with another couple for a getaway weekend trip to the hill country. The location was right inn Johnson City, very close to restaurants and walkable to a cute little coffee. The house was clean, well stocked and very cute. Both bedrooms were comfortable and the 2 bathrooms were perfect so we did not have to share. It was raining much of out trip so we did not get to enjoy the front porch chairs or firepit in backyard but they were a nice touch to the property. Highly recommend!

Clean, Attractive, Comfortable Bed, Great Location, Loved It!

Great little house in a fantastic location. Clean, well appointed, and located conveniently. We were pleasantly surprised by the reverse osmosis system in the kitchen. This was a huge bonus for us, as we usually purchase bottled water when we travel, but there was no need this time because the RO water is purer than the bottled water we buy. Also, the bed was very comfortable. So many rentals have cheap mattresses that are not comfortable to sleep on, but Little Dipper has a great one in the master (we did not use the other bedroom). We were able to walk across the street to the coffee shop and food trucks where we had great food for breakfast in the mornings. Our host was proactive and accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely return and stay here again. Can’t say enough good things about Little Dipper!
