Apartment in Kerrville
4.96 out of 5 average rating, 119 reviewsPerfect Getaway Also; Private River Access
Was great nights sleep. All the needs for a stay over. Views were beautiful. Is the sort of place you really need curl up by river and read. Unfortunately, we were booked solid and did not have time to sit out near water and enjoy.

4.82 out of 5 average rating, 101 reviewsRomantic RiverWallk Retreat: River/City View/King
This place was just as listed, and in a great location. The videos I received upon booking from the host providing check-in instructions made everything crystal clear and i found it very helpful. The host was very responsive as well. My only issue was the TV. It would not let me use it if i did not have an amazon account, sadly rendering it useless throughout my stay.

4.98 out of 5 average rating, 295 reviewsLake Travis Water Front Apartment with Boat Launch
Well equipped, comfortable, and spotless place… location is very peaceful and serene… Overall we had a great stay! Few nitpicks to note: 1. Hard to comprehend from pictures alone how low the lake is. There really is no lake access at this time. 2. Not sure I would call “private”. Hosts live upstairs and have a full view of the patio area. Not an issue for us (and hosts are unobtrusive and very friendly) but could be for some 3. I’m very picky about light bulbs so this is a personal preference, but the light bulbs are very bright white LEDs which, in my view, takes away from an otherwise warm space.

Andy was an excellent host, he was very kind and very polite. the place is absolutely beautiful considering the time of year but I can only imagine how beautiful it looks during the springtime. sitting by the river listening to the owls and watching the deer was very peaceful. great place to watch the sunrise or sunset with a cup of coffee and the one you love.

Beautiful houses to past by everyday. Although we bought all the necessities with us, Gina provided snacks, coffee, shampoo, makeup removers and wine was wonderful. Beautiful house all the way. We should have taken advantage of drinking at her porch. The place is overly gorgeous and the experience was more than wonderful. Thank you for the first memorable AirBNB stay Gina.

Home in Streetman
4.9 out of 5 average rating, 10 reviewsLakefront 2-story home
We planned our family vacation to Streetman and had another air bnb booked. We arrived to plumbing issues and had to quickly divert and find a new place to stay. We found this beautiful home of Kendall’s and were so appreciative of the quick response time and flexibility the host provided with us. Kendall’s home is BEAUTIFUL, peaceful, and full of every single thing you would need when vacationing. We were extremely impressed and so grateful for an accommodating host. Our two pups were in love with this spot as well. We would love to make this air bnb our annual vacation spot. Highly recommend!!

Our stay was absolutely incredible. We booked this trip for a Christmas getaway and to make vision boards for the new year. We felt refreshed and comfortable staying in this beautiful home. It was a bit confusing at first to understand how to pull in for parking but it was very simple once we figured it out! The lake was absolutely stunning and peaceful. There's also nearby restaurants and a place to play pickleball. The location feels like you're in your own little town. We ran into two maintenance issues (one completely out of anyone's control) but Jen was so responsive and everything was resolved quickly! We loved our stay and hope to stay again in the future.

so thankful to Carrie and Erik! after mishaps with a different booking, they were kind enough to accept a last minute booking the day before Thanksgiving. they genuinely saved our family trip and allowed for us to have a wonderful time together with our family over the holiday. the space was wonderful, comfortable, had everything we needed to cook and enjoy our Thanksgiving meal. as a wonderful bonus, we had many deer sighting. and had the weather been warmer, we could have happily enjoy the river that was right at the edge of the property. overall a great place to stay
