We enjoyed our stay. Room was clean and comfortable but shower head was small and made rinsing hair more difficult. Tried to use coffee maker but it wouldn’t work.

Peace and quiet

The cabin was awesome. Went to get away for a few days. A minutes walk from the river. Nature at its best. Ducks, deer, birds. Very peaceful. Walk away to great restaurants, bars, dancehalls, boutiques and shopping. Cabin was clean and quiet. Absolutely enjoyed this 2 day get away.

It was very nice. Tracy was wonderful to deal with. The only thing was that the bathroom exhaust fan wasn't working and one lamp switch didn't work. But that's just what happens in life so we loved it and will definitely return when back in Bandera.
