Aside from the guest house being the best hidden treasure in San Marcos, the Sheffield's (owners) are the kindest and most hospitable people I know. My family and I have stayed in the guest house 3 times and each time has been perfect, especially the most recent stay in December. Our son got married in December in Wimberley and we hosted his rehearsal dinner at Palmers and what an awesome experience that was for all. We are still getting compliments about how delicious the food was, how superior the service was, and how lovely a restaurant it was. The owner of Palmers made the experience exceptional beginning with the accommodations in the guest house and ending with a lovely rehearsal dinner evening. We can't thank Monte & Kristin enough for helping us create a magical weekend for all involved. Needless to say, when in/near San Marcos, we know where to go dine and/or stay over for a night or two; and the added bonus is being excited to see and visit Monte again to eat our favorite foods and taste his newest creation. See ya soon. ;-) read more
