Our stay was perfect! It was great waking up in the morning and having coffee on the porch. The air conditioning was great and the beds were comfortable.
Old Fellow's Farmhouse was just the place we needed to enjoy a Thanksgiving holiday in the Texas Hill Country! My husband, daughters, and I really enjoyed our stay! Thank you!
We were overwhelmed by the rental house! Everything was top quality, from the dishes to the appliances to the beds and bedding. We enjoyed our weeklong stay and hope to return often. Thank you for your hospitality!
We came to visit our oldest son and stayed at your lovely renovated farmhouse and had the best time. It was the perfect retreat to get away and relax. We loved playing games inside and then going outside at night to enjoy a fire in the fire pit and look at the stars!! We truly enjoyed everything about it!!!
Nice cabin, secluded enough but also close to Kerrville to get groceries. We had the deer greet us when we arrived and could see them morning and evening. BBQ grill was awesome. Property is walkable for a nice afternoon stroll.
Great place! It had everything you need, utensils, towels, pots pans, etc! It is quiet and beautiful outdoors! It isn’t too far from Kerrville and Fredericksberg! Got to wake up to deers in the front of the cabin. Would recommend!
In order to help make this a better rental would suggest 3 things. A shower head in the wall instead of the ceiling that does not get your head wet and gives you a more enjoyable shower. Screens on the doors and windows to allow a breeze without having to use the A/C and a curtain in the upstairs bathroom. Washcloths in the downstairs bathroom would be nice.
We enjoyed ourselves at this property. It was quiet and relaxing. The fire pit and gazebo were great for the colder nights outdoors. The cabin was very cozy, relaxing, and well equipped!
