This stay was to celebrate my sister's 70th birthday. I chose this location because 2 of her high school friends made arrangements for lunch at The Laurel Tree and we wanted some quality time together. This was the perfect spot! The house was the perfect size and we both really enjoyed the country air. The house was clean and the beds were quite comfortable.
Amy
The perfect getaway - the cabin is nestled in some of the most beautiful hills of Texas Hill Country. The views cannot be matched, it was a serene escape. The cabin itself was just darling, had everything you need for a quick getaway to decompress or a longer stay. It is situated close to several state parks that should not be missed! Definitely recommend this great little place for the peace and quiet, and the amazing views you get while sitting in the front porch.
Alanna
Hidden Maples is quaint, cozy, and peaceful. And exactly what we were hoping for! The scenic drive out to the property was just the beginning of a perfect weekend getaway. We brought our two pups along for the stay. We enjoyed watching them romp around the property without a care in the world. The house is exactly as advertised - it is simple but has everything you need. We cooked breakfast tacos, brewed coffee, baked cinnamon rolls, and made pizza in the full kitchen. The master bed was super comfortable and huge! The front porch was the perfect spot to sit and have a drink to watch the sun set. We played games in the gazeebo and made a fire in the pit one night too. Hiking at Lost Maples was awesome, as it was only a 15 minute drive from the house. Finally, the communication from Spencer and Jess was top notch for sure! They made sure we had everything we needed and provided clear instructions. Thank you again for an amazing stay. We would definitely return!
Gary
The property was as advertised. It was in a good location for peace and quiet, but close enough to places in the Hill Country that we wanted to visit. The property was clean and plenty spacious for the 3 of us. I had to work some and there was absolutely no problem with connectivity. Spencer answered all of our questions very quickly prior to the trip and check in was about as easy as you can imagine. I would definitely recommend this property.
Heather
Best place we have ever stayed!
Heather
Great little place, super perfect for my 1.5 yr old because there isn't a ton of busy decorations like some places have. Only had to do minimal baby proofing. I was suuuper skeptical about the AC units, but they kept up well and I was actually cold at night. Definitely go see Lost Maples State Park and Utopia Park. It's in the perfect spot to drive but to see some really cool areas. We tried Garner State park, but it was too busy. Try to get groceries on the way in before you get to Medina because there's only a family dollar really. SO MANY DEER. We must've seen a thousand deer in four days. Nice little vacation due to hurricane Laura's mandatory evacuation. They got back to me quickly after we requested the stay. Thank you!!
