I traveled with family. I had a good experience with this hotel. First, the staffs are very friendly and helpful. Second, the hotel is quiet. It is a good place for relaxing and enjoying with my family. Also, the location is very convenient. It is 30 mins away from Perdernales State Park, 48 mins from Fredericksburg, 1 hr from Enchanted Rock (15 mins from Frederickburg). Next, the breakfast is tasty and quality. The pool is very nice. The whole Hotel is very clean (bedroom, bathroom, lobby, hallway, elevator…). I would come back in the summer. Overall, it is exceeded my expectation. It worths the money

Took a trip to a State Park nearby and needed a place to crash for the night. Hotel was clean and nice and in a really good area if you like nature. 10/10 would stay again.

Quick trip

Really impressed by this little hideaway hotel! The premium double queen room was very spacious and I love the furniture. We did not eat breakfast but the coffee was good and everything smelled good. Will definitely keep this on our list of places to stay.
