Good to know
Two homes are included in this listing. Great set-up for family reunions, small retreats, multi-family vacation, and more. If you'd prefer to rent one home or the other, go into my profile and check out my other listings... VISTA HOUSE (the main house) -- Some amenities: *Heated saltwater pool & hot tub (w/ pool floats/toys) *Fire pit on a view-filled observation platform *Screened patio w/ fans/heaters and comfy seating *Grill w/ outdoor dining *TVs in every room *Fully equipped kitchen for all types of cooking *Dedicated workspace *Room-darkening curtains in bedrooms *Indoor & outdoor games *And more! We have board games and outdoor games (badminton, volleyball, horseshoes, life-size checkers, corn-hole, ladder balls, basketball hoop, golf ball hitting on the observatory platform, etc.). There is a Bluetooth speaker in the main living room as well as Bluetooth speakers for the screened back patio. Every room has TVs that are equipped with a plethora of streaming apps. All (except front living room) are set-up to automatically sign you out of your streaming accounts after check-out. There is a front living room and a main living room. This makes it great for those who want to watch different TV programs or separate space to do different things. There is a laundry room with washer and dryer for your use (with 'sensitive' type laundry detergent and dryer sheets for those with sensitivities) Master Bedroom: *King bed *Steam Iron *Room-darkening curtains *Roku TV *Full-length mirror *Direct access to the screened patio Back and Front Bedrooms: *Queen bed *Room-darkening curtains *Roku TV Bathrooms: *Master bath has soaking tub, tiled shower, private toilet closet, lighted vanity mirror (with bluetooth), full-size hair dryer, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash *Shared bathroom has walk-in shower, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash *Half bathroom has entry from inside and outside (for easy access) Kitchen: The kitchen is fully stocked, including basic condiments. Coffee station includes things like ground coffee, k-cups (decaf, flavored coffees, hot chocolate, teas, etc.), various types of sweetener, creamer cups, honey, etc. Main Living Room: *Roku TV *Fireplace *Bluetooth speaker Front Living Room: *TV with sound bar *Filtered water dispenser *Queen sofa bed (Koala brand...I bought because it got great ratings...it is foam and NOT the traditional kind that has the bar down the middle that hits your back, ugh!) *Dedicated workspace -- includes a monitor with USB-C and HDMI cables. There's also a desk lamp and surge protector strip plugs. In addition, there is a sliding area of the desk so you can bring your own keyboard. Backyard: *Heated saltwater pool and hot tub (NOTE: Hot tub heating is free, but pool heating is $150 a day...this cost is because it can take up to 48 hours to pre-heat the pool) *Pool inflatables and accessories (ex: balls, snorkel, goggles, etc.) *Observatory platform to enjoy even more views of the valley, fire-pit (chiminea style), and/or star-gazing. There are folding chairs if you need extras. *The back screened porch has ceiling fans, a gas grill, dining area, papasan chair to sink into, two futons to relax on, and a basket of helpful sprays (sunscreen, bug spray, insect repellent, etc.). The back screened porch also comes with a wildlife scope, for those that enjoy getting a closer look at the wildlife. In one of the photos, you'll see our 6-foot chicken named Cluck Norris -- take a selfie with him! HAVEN CABIN -- Some amenities: *Hot tub *Fire table *Back covered deck with a fan and seating *Grill w/ outdoor dining *TVs in main bedroom and living room *Fully equipped kitchen for all types of cooking *Dedicated workspace *Room-darkening curtains in bedrooms *Indoor & outdoor games *And more! We have board games (many of them are vintage games) and horse shoes in the backyard. There is a speaker in the main living room and we are working on getting a speaker for the back patio as well. The TVs are equipped with a plethora of streaming apps. They are set-up to automatically sign you out of your streaming accounts after check-out. There is a washer and dryer for your use in the front bathroom (with 'sensitive' type laundry detergent and dryer sheets for those with sensitivities). The cabin is heated/cooled via a mini-split system (ductless AC/Heater system). The units are located in the kitchen and main bedroom, and both come with remotes. Directions on how to use the units are posted on the wall next to the remotes. Although this system heats/cools the entire cabin, there are also space heaters and fans in the other rooms for those who prefer a boost. ;-) Master Bedroom: *King bed *Steam Iron (located in the game cabinet) *Room-darkening curtains *Roku TV *Full-length mirror (located next to the staircase) Sleeping Loft: *Queen bed *Floor fan and heater *Room-darkening curtains *Awesome view NOTE: I advise against having anyone up in the loft that is below the age of 13. The only people allowed up in the loft are people who can and will safely navigate up/down the small stairs (the steps are small and curved, as you can see in the photos). We do have string lights that go down the stairs and are supposed to turn on at night when someone approaches the stairs. Side note: The loft has a tendency to get warmer in the summer and cooler in the winter than the rest of the cabin. There is a full-size floor fan/heater up there for added comfort. Bathrooms: *Master bath has a large tiled shower, lighted vanity, hair dryer, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. *Front bathroom has tiled stall shower, lighted vanity, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. *Both bathrooms are full-size and have a floor fan/heater for added comfort. The washer/dryer for clothes is also in the front bathroom. Kitchen: The kitchen is fully stocked, including basic condiments. NOTE: There is not a dishwashing machine. There is a dish rack and a deep farmhouse sink for dish washing. I also stock paper plates, paper bowls, disposable cups, and disposable spoons/forks/knives for those who don't like doing dishes. ;-) Also, I supply 2-gallons of water. You're welcome to bring bottled water if you'd like. Coffee station includes things like ground coffee, k-cups, teas, various types of sweetener, creamer cups, honey, etc. Living Room: *Roku TV *Fireplace (it's electric...you can run the 'flame' on its own and/or turn on the heat function too) *Bluetooth sound bar *Acoustic guitar (bring your tuner, LOL) *Wildlife scope (it's not an astronomy telescope) *Dedicated workspace -- includes a desk lamp and surge protector strip plug. You can also work at the dining tables if you prefer. Backyard: *Hot tub (with oxidizer and minerals, which is better for your skin) *Sitting chairs *Dining table *Fire table (which is more for ambiance than heating since it would be a fire hazard to have a large fire on the deck) *Outdoor fan and bug zapper We also have certain optional concierge offerings -- You can order extra home-delivered amenities, such as flowers, wine, food trays, or a local service like an in-home massage, private chef, or wine tour...and more! Side Note: HEB grocery store does deliver. If you'd like to have groceries delivered before you arrive, just let the host know you ordered groceries along with the delivery time. The host will set the groceries in the fridge prior to your arrival. NOTE: Haven Cabin has an 8-foot privacy fence near it (which aren't in the aerial photos), for added guest privacy, and there is a path the leads to the back of Vista House. So there's a benefit of privacy/space between houses and yet also connectedness when needed as well. The property is 15 acres total. Look at the photo to see the proximity between homes.
Other Details to Note
NOTE: I (the host) live on the other side of the property (property is 15 acres total). Rest assured though that we value your privacy. Bees and wasps are attracted to water, so you may see these types of insects at the pool area. I do my best to repel them, but I can't guarantee there won't be some who visit for a drink. ;-) We also do monthly indoor/outdoor pest control, but since we're out in the country, there may be a bug who finds its way in once in a while.
