The cabin was the perfect size for myself and my dog (they are pet friendly!) but would comfortably house 2 adults. There is a nice kitchenette and bathroom with all the amenities you would need and then some! Stacey was awesome and suggested some of the local restaurants down the road and she was not wrong about how great the pizza at Dough Joe's is! She is a new owner of the property so she is working to make the cabin's her own--which happens to be super cute and country-chic! Bandera is a cute small town with lots of downtown activity, especially on Saturday. There is a nice park along the Medina river that has some great scenery, wildlife, and picnic tables, however the park closes a little early so check times before you go! There are some great places to hike nearby, as well. I took my dog to the Hill Country State Natural Area and they had plenty of easy-difficult hikes depending on what you're looking for. Definitely will be staying here again if I need a getaway to the Hill Country!

We flew in and out of San Antonio, only 50 miles away. The owners are very knowledgeable about everything to see and do within a 100 mile radius and they are interested in making their guests as comfortable as possible. The resident dogs are friendly and unobtrusive, deer are plentiful and we even watched roadrunners and plenty of hummingbirds. These new themed cabins (Cowboy and Harley) are located on 5 private acres, with comfortable beds, a porch for bird and deer-watching, full bathrooms and a kitchenette with dining table and flat-screen TV. Another great comfort is the wall (not window) air conditioning and heating unit. It kept us very comfortable during changing weather. The owners have thought of everything - not only are the cabins well-appointed and comfortable, but there is a large platform porch "The Sundowner Lounge", gas barbecues, a fire pit, picnic area, hammock and horseshoe toss games for anyone to use. The small town atmosphere and great shopping and eating in Bandera cannot be beat! Fabulous antiques at good prices, ecclectic shops with second-hand to upscale clothing and jewelry, and even a great quilting store - "Gone Quiltin". Wednesday night at the 11th Street Cowboy Bar, where you cook your own steaks. No need to spend any time in the city! We stayed for a week and really relaxed. It's a perfect place to take the family, or as a quiet place for rest and relaxation. Dog friendly, Motorcycle friendly, just plain Texas friendly!

It's just a short walk to the river where you can enjoy swimming, tubing, kayaking or just lounging in the cool clear water of the Medina. The beauty of this place is that while it is located 30 minutes from San Antonio and Boerne, and 14 miles from Bandera, the Cowboy Capital of the World, it truly is a quiet country home. There's nothing like sitting on the porch, listening to the river run, or watching the fireflies light up like nature's twinkle lights when the sun goes down. It's a short drive to San Antonio and all the popular attractions and shopping there. The hill country wineries around Fredericksburg, Garner State Park near Leakey, or Lost Maples State Park are only an hour away.

The trailer canopy fell across exit door trapping me in. I was not checked on during the night, rather, rescued in the morning. So, I could not use the restroom the whole of that time.. No apologies/concern offered. With all the mud,, a shower was not an option as the drain was clogged with bugs. The patio was drenched due to canopy failure.

Don't we specifically pay premium price not to have to do this and all the other litany of clean up rules they have in place? Aren't we suppose to be on vacation??? I'm an easy-to-please, understated, happy-go-lucky, hardy country gal, and an author for a travel magazine (the reason for my stay) complaints kept coming in of people deserving refunds but not getting them. I, a senior staff, was sent to verify. This is, "A Place to Stay", as the name of the company implies, just NOT a good one.

My husband and I stayed at the Flying L cabin for a couple nights while we attended a very dear…read morefriend's wedding. Unfortunately, we didn't have the best experience staying there. 1. We are out-of-towners and this is our first time visiting Bandera. We always heard about the welcoming, friendliness and hospitality of the small town Texans. What we experienced at the front desk when we checked in wasn't any of those. The young lady who helped with our check-in wasn't friendly nor welcoming. I wanted to check out the place so I asked her if its ok for me to look around. I got a short answer from her after I repeated the question twice. No eye contact, no smile... 2. When we opened our cabin door, a very strong chemical smell of the most recent wood stains was overwhelming. We left the door open for a while to see if the smell got better, it wasn't, and we started feeling a light headache and nausea . So I called the front desk asking for another room. I was put on hold for a long time. I had hang up and then, got a call back. Since another cabin won't be ready until much later, we brought all of our luggages back in the car and drove to the check in area to drop off the keys. The young lady was busy with another customer so we talked to another lady. Again, no smile.. Its noone fault about the smell of the cabin. However, the way the situation was handled, it made us feel like we were bothering them. If I could "suck it in" and stayed in that room, I would. But my sensitive nose couldn't handle it... 3. The cabin itself has very nice wood walls and cute and simple decors. But it's a tiny space with the bunk bed taking a big chunk of the room. No closet or hangers, the tiny shower, and the beddings and towels, being dark brown, didn't help to show the cleanliness. The pillows were so hard, my husband couldn't sleep the 1st night. Luckily, he asked the front desk for a more "fluffier" pillows and got a better night of sleep the next night. Worse is,, there was only one tiny mirror in the bathroom. I am not sure why another mirror wasn't available in the room so 2 people can get ready at the same time... Customer services at these hotels are very important. They play a big part on how people, out-of-towners like us, view about the town and people who live here. Sadly, based on our experience from our stay here, Bandera wan't what we expected and maybe, will be our one time visting... *This resort/these cabins are surrounding by a nice golf course, homes and so many beautiful and peaceful deers. It has so much potential to be a very special place....

My daughter and I stayed here for an event we were attending in town. We stayed only one night,…read morearrived to check in at 7:30 pm on a Friday and we were checking out the next morning before 8:00 am. When we checked in, the woman working at the desk was very friendly. However, she had about a five minute presentation on every detail about the resort. She even talked about things that were not happening while we were there. This would have been nice if we were staying a while but we were obviously there only about 12 hours. The other downside to this is that we were third in line to check in, so we had to stand there and listen to her say it three times. Side note, part of the check in process is to sign a liability waiver which I find odd. After we set off to find our cabin, I was shocked to find the grounds dark, completely dark. The only designation on the cabins is a number on the cabin itself and some of them do not face the street. The porch lights are dim so it was very difficult to find our place in the dark. The room was fine, dimly lit but fine. It was roomy, the beds were comfortable and the bathroom was nice. After we got settled, I went to the restaurant by the main office. They had live music and were taking orders outside. I was told by the woman taking orders that the kitchen was too backed up and they could not take any food orders at the time, "we are a three man operation and are too behind so come back in 30 minutes". Then, when I came back at 9:01 pm I was told they stop serving food at 9:00 and I could only get pizza. Not impressed with the restaurant. The next morning, I got up at 6:00 am to go for a walk. Again, everything is pitch black, no street lights anywhere. I walked through the little cabin street that winds around and followed a sidewalk that apparently turns into the golf course sidewalk. No designation, no lights, I had no idea. A staff member in a golf cart yelled at me that I was not allowed to walk on the golf course sidewalk. This also seemed strange to me as I wasn't running around on the course. I was on a sidewalk. This place was fine if you need to be close for an event, like we were, but I would not choose to stay here for any length of time for recreation.

Kitchen is marvelous, as are the two bathrooms. Owners Debbie and Don Davis have spared no expense in up-dating this former hunter's cabin to accommodate the most discerning travelers and their cohort of adult family and friends. So many adventures to pursue around this 1800 acre property, but the cabin itself if hard to leave once you settle in to its intoxicating ambiance of age-old tradition and modern convenience. Did I mention the lovely pollinator garden or the spacious front porch from which you can watch the winged world of birds and insects float around just waiting to star in your telephoto lens masterpiece? There's no hunting on the property, so it's safe to hike or mountain bike the miles of trails crisscrossing land where the cattle (not buffalo) quietly roam. Quiet, by the way is the prevailing mood as the Cabin is some miles from any main road and even further from the nearest town, Tarpley, which is nonetheless charming and accessible. And don't get me started about the chance for those physically fit and intrepid individuals to explore one of the amazing underground caves recently discovered on the ranch. https://devinenews.com/exploring-a-treasure-beneath.../...
