    9 point buck eating from my hand!
    Holly R.

    When the SO and I decided to go on vacation this year we opted to stay in state. The hill country was an area I have not had much of a chance to explore so I started looking for a place to stay. Came across this place and decided to take a chance. So glad that we did! We stayed for a week using the lodge as a central hub to the different towns we explored. The bed was comfortable and the room was cozy. Had everything needed for a weeks stay. The owners were very nice and Jennifer had many ideas of things to do during our stay. On the day the cold front came through Mark came to the room and explained how to work the heater. If/when we stay in that part of the state again we would likely stay there. The view of the lake was great. Best thing ever was when the deer were eating out of our hands.

    Good luck grillin'!!!

    Perfect! Reasonably priced, convienently located, comfortable accommodations, friendly staff, and beautifully renovated rooms (with free wi-fi). Deer are domesticated here so bring a loaf of bread and prepare to feed them! Located 1 block from a boat loading dock with a path for swimmers to do some late night backstroke. Will stay here again and again! 100+ positive ratings on tripadvisor.com

    Very very nice. Well appointed room with a very helpful owner present. Jennifer hand drew a super helpful map of all the recommended sights and restaurants. The cute and friendly deer did not hurt, either!

    Great place for a 2-3 day retreat. Dog-friendly (on leash required). The customer service responds…read morequickly, and check-in/check-out are smooth and easy. This year's water level is historically low (since the 1960s), so direct swimming access to the water is nearly impossible. Boat ramp closed. However, the view is still spectacular. We also appreciate the grill spots -- we saw previous complaints about the grills -- honestly, we don't quite understand why they are being so picky with the public grill spots lol... I can tell they have tried their best to manage/clean. A/C works well, especially at night! Not much noise created. All the fire pits were upgraded and well-maintained. Some things to be careful with: 1/ Some weeds in the grass can be sticky and painful to pick off. Be careful walking in grass near the cabins (wear water shoes). 2/ Some dogs may be reactive to people/other dogs (barking). But everyone was very respectful. 3/ Didn't try the swimming pool; it looks a little muddy. 4/ Coffee station not working well. We noticed from others' reviews and brought our own coffee boiling pot with pour makers. They also didn't provide milk/coffee mate. 5/ Pillows are not quite comfortable.

    Can't believe it's been 10 years since my first stay at Canyon Lakeview Resort. Instead of a group…read moreof 40, we were about 24 adults, a few kiddos, and a handful of furbabies. And just like last time, it was a great stay. I'm not sure if I noticed their amenities last time or if they added on facilities in the last decade, but a few things to know: o There is a giant, we're talking massive swimming pool that's 3"5 deep all the way around. As a shawty, I appreciate that. There's plenty of seating, pergolas for much-needed shade. No restrooms at the pool. o Volleyball court o A main lodge area/event space, perfect for family reunions and such. o There's a "motel" also onsite. o It's dog-friendly, with a max of two dogs per cabin and a $25 deposit per pet per night. o Amazing sunsets, direct lake access for swimming or boating, grilling areas, and "The Point" which is a great spot for a nightcap and handing with friends/family. As for the cabins, once again our group reserved five of their six cabins that each come equipped with two decks overlooking Canyon Lake, a hot tub, multiple bedrooms, living spaces, fireplaces, full kitchens.... Note that some cabins may have a studio-style room with no wall. Our AC was kickin' and there was plenty of hot and cold water. Only gripe is the living room seating in our cabin, Cabin F. The chairs stunk like BO. My guess is that guest sit on them with wet river clothes... hope they steam them.

    My husband and I were looking for something low key to do for our 29th anniversary. We chose the…read moreMansion because it seemed local and we didn't want to drive a lot. We hit the jackpot! There were a few different types of rooms to choose from and we chose the Penthaus 15 because it was on the River. This room is not for tall people (we are not). Choose another room if you're tall! We loved that it's all original buildings from 1800s in the area. Had good plumbing and amazing AC (thank God!) and quite a bit of charm. Please note this is not a bed n breakfast anymore. But The Pantry is a part of the main office and they serve breakfast for reasonable prices. My lox and bagel was amazing and my husband's taco was delicious. Breakfast was a local affair. So many people and everyone was small town friendly. We sat on the porch but there were tables inside and on the back patio. The Texas Pecan Coffee was so good I bought some to bring home. Location of the mansion was perfect! We never even got in our car all weekend!! Shops, live music, bars, parks, river tubing was all within a few blocks. So close that if we needed to cool down (June in TX with no ac in some shops and restaurants) we would just swing back to the room for about 15 mins, cool down, and then keep going. So much live music to enjoy. I see some reviews that complain about music at night but we were not bothered by any of it. We had to strain to hear anything outside our room. The Inn provides earplugs but we didn't use them. We've already promised each other to come back again in the fall when it's a little cooler. And of course we will stay at the Gruene Mansion Inn.

    We love visiting Gruene and love to stay at Gruene Mansion Inn when we are able to make it. I was…read moresad to find out that it is a bed and breakfast anymore. With how high the rates are it should definitely be a B&B still, but i guess high prices are just something that people get away with now! Regardless the room we stayed in was beautiful and clean and had updated renovations. The outside looks rustic but the inside is very comfortable and relaxing. Besides the music that is playing next door, sleep was great. The beds are comfy. We enjoyed rocking in the chairs on the patio watching the people. Plenty of parking during the week for guests. Staff was great and helpful.

    My wife and I live in Grapevine, Texas, and wanted a long weekend getaway. We rented the cedar…read morecabin and absolutely loved it. There are very few things as peaceful as sitting in a jacuzzi and watching the wildlife walk and fly by. No sounds of cars. No airplanes overhead. No "hustle and bustle." Just peace. The cabin itself was pretty cool. There's a binder with photos documenting its construction sitting on the kitchen table. The layout made sense. It's nice to be able to cook your own meals if you want. There are some restaurants just a few miles from the cabin if you'd rather do that. If you want a nice hearty breakfast, you have to check out Granny D's. The shower and fireplace were both a lot of fun. The rain on our first day there made it a bit difficult to get a fire going, but we finally managed to start it. The replica Franklin stove in the bedroom was useful. The way that the windows are fitted to the house lets a bit of a draft in, and they rattle a bit when the wind is blowing hard, but that's part of the charm of the place. Another cool place to check out while you're there is the Natural Bridge Caverns. Lots of fun, as we both like long walks and hiking-type activities. There is one recommendation that I would make to the owners of the cabin. Re-grade the driveway/ramp down to the cedar cabin. The sharp drop at the bottom all but guarantees that you're going to scrape your vehicle's undercarriage unless you're driving a pickup or SUV. If you are driving a sedan, you'll want to park at the top of the driveway and walk down the hill to the front door. We were crawling down the driveway at less than 1 mph and still managed to scrape the under-body paneling of the car on our first day there. That sucked. We parked up top (see photos) for the rest of our stay. All of that said, the cabin was exactly what we were looking for in a relaxing hill country getaway. I've recommended it to many of my friends and colleagues in the past few weeks since we got back to Grapevine. You should absolutely check it out and at least give it some consideration if you're looking for a getaway that's a bit different than the typical downtown hotel or beach resort scene. 8/10 Would survive the zombie apocalypse there.

    You would think staying in a tiny house wouldn't be that great. I'm sorry, but this may be one…read moreinstance where bigger isn't necessarily better (that's what she said?) Nestled in the hill country just a stones throw away from Canyon Lake and all the awesomeness that the Hill Country has to offer are the Homestead Cottages. There are three cottages: A cedar cabin, a regular cottage, and a Tiny Texas House. We stayed at the Tiny Texas House and loved it. The location itself is great. It's close to New Braunfels but even closer to Canyon Lake. It is perfect for day trips into the surrounding hill country, which is exactly what we used it for. We tripped to Boerne and Bandera from the location and the drive was beautiful. Tough to beat. The amenities at the Tiny Texas House were nice as well. There is a Tiny Texas Kitchen with a Tiny Texas Induction Oven (you know, the magnet thingie to heat stuff up with). There was also a flat-screen TV with sattelite TV, bath robes, and a coffee maker. Most of the comforts of home. I had only a couple of negatives about the TTT: (a) the size of the sink made it difficult to wash dishes and there was no dish soap; (b) the air conditioner wasn't quite strong enough to cool down the lofted bed; (c) there were some unknown hairs on the bed sheet so we were uncertain whether the sheets had been washed before we arrived; and (d) the fridge smelled a little musty. These were small issues, though, and didn't diminish our enjoyment that much. Aside from the location, a few things stand out for me. First, I loved that the TTT had a little enclosed garden surrounding an above-ground jacuzzi. If we were so inclined, there was plenty of mint to make enough mojitos for a party of 20. The jacuzzi was secluded, too, both by the trees lining the street and a wall filling in the space where the trees were. I also really liked the idea of a lofted bed. It was like getting up into my lofted bed I had in college, except fancier. All in all, if you're wanting a hill country escape with your significant other, you can do much worse than staying in one of the Homestead Cottages in Canyon Lake: unique, charming, and cozy.
