    Day spa! My friend and I got massages and enjoyed the amenities. We went for a hike, a swim, and had a light lunch. Very peaceful place with great service!

    Two years ago, we were guests and had an exceptional experience. Consequently, this year, for my birthday, I requested a night away with my husband at this establishment. Regrettably, our experience this time was subpar. We rented a casita specifically to utilize the hot tub and spa pool, which were intended to provide water therapy for both my husband and myself. As we had done previously, we arrived early. However, this time, our room was not prepared. Although we arrived early, the issue was not a concern. We visited the library to play dominoes and wait. The scheduled check-in time arrived, but our room remained unavailable. Approximately 20 minutes later, my husband checked in, and we were informed that they were experiencing delays. Upon finally reaching our casita, we discovered that it was excessively hot and emitted a strong odor of vinegar or a similar substance. The delayed cleaning was executed poorly. We informed them about the high temperature inside, and they provided us with a fan. One of the mini-splits above the bed was not functioning. As night fell, we ventured outside to enjoy the hot tub and spa pool, only to find that they were inoperative. It was after 8 pm, and we were unable to contact anyone. Consequently, we utilized the pool as a regular pool to at least cool off due to the high indoor temperature. The following morning, we informed them that the pools and hot tub were not functioning. Several individuals were dispatched to inspect the issue. They assured us that they had resolved the problem, but only three of the jets were operational, causing the entire pool to heat up. The primary jets, responsible for creating the spa-like ambiance of the pool, were completely inoperative. The food this time was also mediocre, unlike the exceptional quality we experienced the previous visit. The cost was nearly $400, and the overall experience was highly disappointing. Consequently, we will not be returning to this establishment.

    I went to Sage Hill Spa with my peers for a staff wide mental health day. I live in Austin, so it was about 20 minutes outside of town but since it was in the opposite direction of traffic I didn't mind the drive. Upon arrival, our supervisors provided us with a day pass to the spa which included, access to the grounds, trail access, pickleball access, library access, breakfast, coffee/tea, an hour long massage and a boxed lunch. We started at the pickleball courts and we were the only ones out there. The staff provided us with pickleball equipment so don't worry if you don't have any! After a few rounds, we then went to the spa to get our massage. In the massage building there were four separate rooms and a bathroom. Everything was clean and smelled amazing. A male masseuse then guided me to our room and ensured I was comfortable and asked if I had any areas I wanted to focus on. The massage was INCREDIBLE! My peers had nothing but great things to say about their experience as well. One masseuse was even experienced in pre-natal massages. The boxed lunch meal was such a delicious treat. It came with a sandwich, cookie, drink, chips and a salad. After lunch, a few of us walked some trails and sat around the fire pit. I would recommend sage hill a hundred times! If you're looking for a weekend getaway, a date night, team bonding, or some quick personal self care, Sage Hill is it!

    If Yelp allowed half stars this boutique inn would have absolutely garnered a 2.5 but alas, I'll be generous and say 3. My husband booked this "staycation" for us mainly because we love bubble baths and this inn advertised casitas (think tiny houses spread out over the property) with large bathtubs. Well, fast forward to night one of our two night stay and the bath we were looking forward to was an absolute fail. The water in the tub wasn't working (apparently a storm in the area compromised a "breaker"). So, a total bust for night one's bubble bath experience. Additionally, after putting in a complaint that first night about the water not working, the inn sent a service provider to our casita at 9am the following morning (loud knocks on our door let us know someone was trying to get in - obviously, we were thankful someone was sent to look at the issue but it would have been better had the inn attempted to coordinate with our schedule instead of sending someone out at a time I'd seem fairly early when you're trying to enjoy a nice lazy morning). More on the "casita" - the property has a large home and an adjacent building with rooms while other private casitas are dotted around the property. We stayed in the mountain laurel casita and upon first glance it was nicely appointed but the more closely you looked the more issues became apparent. The biggest issue of course was our non-functioning bathtub but the other major issues included a lot of uninvited additional guests - think a lot of creepy crawler bugs. Some dead, some alive in every area. This included large nests of daddy long leg spiders above the awning of the casita entrance which always brought about a lot of concern when entering and exiting the space. The room did have a double sided fireplace that was nice and allowed for a good ambiance. Lots of outdoor seating if you wanted to really get close to the land and its creepy crawly inhabitants. Another disappointment considering the per night price is that the casitas/rooms are not serviced daily (a note says they can be serviced upon request). Again, for the cost of spaces per night it seems that having the bed made/space tidied up should be a given. Our casita also had a mini fridge with complimentary beverages (non alcoholic - some water and cokes). A coffee maker was also equipped with coffee for a morning sip. Breakfast was included but it was lackluster. Guests were provided a carb/sugar loaded continental spread (fruit, breads, butter, jam, sugar bombs aka cinnamon buns, coffee) and could have an actual breakfast for a $15 flat fee per dish (not worth the money). The grounds included a library for guests, a pool/hot tub, a really nice pickleball court (apparently, a pickball professional is available for private and group lessons - guests can also borrow equipment to use if desired). The pool/hot tub was OK - they both needed a vacuum as a lot of debris was in both (the double edged sword of a large tree near both that provided shade but also contributed to the debris in the pool). Guests had complimentary water available to them at the pool along with chairs, loungers and towels. We opted into a massage onsite - the massage house was nicely appointed and very clean. This was definitely the highlight of the stay - the providers were very kind and both of us thoroughly enjoyed the massages we received. Hiking paths and walking sticks are also available on site. The grounds are lovely with lots of wildflowers around. Overall, this boutique inn could be a good option if you're looking for a hill country getaway but they have to go back to basics to offer a 5* experience for guests. Better breakfast items, clean, bug-free spaces, and functioning bathtubs are a must for the per night price they charge. (Of note - upon check out we were offered a $150 refund because of our bathtub issues - this was appreciated but also expected as guests should have fully-functional rooms when staying onsite).

    Peaceful and tranquil setting just above Onion Creek with trails, pickleball, restaurant, library, pool and wildlife. Deer, wild turkeys. Great service and food. The kitchen baked good we're sinful. Large property and great staff. Wine and food pairing. We had dinner brought to the cabin one night it was was so chill. If you're looking for a getaway nearby this place has it. Also small spa with various services.

    Dust/dirt bunny in bathroom

    My husband and I stayed here for a weekend to celebrate our anniversary. The staff here was very friendly and responsive. The massages at the spa were great. The restaurant was ok; we enjoyed the dinners but the breakfast wasn't that great. Aside from the carb heavy breakfast offered, my husband and I both ordered eggs which clearly came from a warming drawer and were not good. In terms of the accommodations, we stayed in a casita and were disappointed with the condition of the casita. We watched a movie in the living room the first evening we were there and as I looked towards the bedroom I could clearly see a line of thick dust right at the edges of the bed. I then looked back at the tv and saw a thick line of dust under the tv. I told the front desk about this and they quickly corrected it, but it showed complete laziness from a housecleaning perspective. As the weekend wore on, we found cleaning issues everywhere, including spiderwebs in the shower and above the door, dust on the blinds, a dead bug in the bathroom, and dust bunnies in various places. The baseboards were very dirty and the paint throughout the casita was patched in multiple places. If sage hill put a little money into the casita to repaint it, clean and/or repaint the baseboards and trim inside and get a cleaning crew that actually cleans, this would be a much better accommodation. As it stands, this place is not worth the money and we will not be back nor would we recommend this place to anyone else.

    Wallace bath

    I chose Sage Hill Inn and Spa as a weekend getaway in finding my mojo. Sadly, my stay at Sage Hill did not help in quest. Nina called 4hrs prior to my arrival stating the Wallace Room was ready for me and to ask about my dinner choice. I submitted my dinner request for each night Wednesday but it was not received (although Google Forms sent confirmation of what was sent). The Wallace Room is on the 2nd floor. Upon entering, there is a staircase to get to actual room (3 flights of stairs). The first thing I noticed in the Wallace Room was the dirty tub. I chose room partially because of the whirlpool tub. I also had issues with the "rustic" front door. The deadbolt would not turn leaving me uneasy the entire night. I'm sure the cracks in the front door helped mosquito visitor in with ease. Overnight I discovered issues with the heater (front desk closed) so I froze entire night. The temperature went from 65 to 62 the following morning. I spoke with Caroline just after 8AM advising of heat issues. After assuring Caroline I had turned on heat (sigh), we agreed maintenance would have a look during my 3.5hr spa services as well as housekeeping clean tub. When I returned to my unlocked front door, I saw the thermostat read 61. I then read text from Caroline stating maintenance confirmed heat blowing from vent but, because of high ceilings, not warming up room. Maintenance increased fan speed to help (something I did night before). Housekeeping also informed her tub was not dirty just stained so no cleaning completed. Caroline did offer two rooms which she checked were warm. I gladly accepted the Hays room. Upon picking up lunch provided with spa services, Eric apologized for mishap and told me to call when I'm ready to move to other room so he could help with luggage. My plan was to eat, gather things and move to other room afterwards. I returned to Wallace Room only for the water to be off. Front office alerted of water issues throughout property 20mins prior as they were working on it but failed to mention when we spoke just minutes before. Odd and frustrating. Caroline helped getting luggage over to Hays Room (another building on 2nd floor). We also stopped by the kitchen to get utensils for my lunch as eating sandwich with unwashed hands was a bit troubling. Caroline did offer hand sanitizer (declined as had my own and nothing like soap/water before eating). At 4:15PM, Eric stated plumber was leaving property and water should be back on in 5mins. 3hrs after my spa session, I immediately showered only to notice the abundance of dead ladybugs. It was at that moment that I decided this place was not for me (housekeeping obviously does not clean). After relaxing for a bit, I called the office to arrange dinner to be delivered. At 7pm, I began to worry so called office and followed up with a text. Eric delivered my food and apologized for the delay. I told Eric of my plans to checkout a day early which he stated would not be a problem and apologized for everything. He also mentioned my credit card on file has been credited and not to worry about "any of this". I wasn't sure what "credit" or "any of this" meant. I just wanted to go home. I also spoke with Caroline Saturday night to reiterate my plan to checkout Sunday morning and get a rundown on their checkout procedure which I was told to just leave key in room. Sunday evening I received a call from the office asking if I would be dining with them. Whoever called apologized, mentioned credit from Eric and stated everything would be reviewed Monday. That statement had me confused as nothing to review as maintenance noted heating issue and obvious water issues which caused me to cut trip short. The only good part of my stay was the spa services and food. Shawn did a fantastic job with my scrub, massage, facial and wrap. The Garden Spa has a few private rooms along with a bathroom and shower. After my scrub, I showered, grabbed robe and slippers provided to continue the remainder of services. The food at Sage Hill is also surprisingly good. I won't return or recommend Sage Hill.

    Library...you can get coffee, water, tea or popcorn.

    Wow wow wow....went for only one night with my husband and another couple. Stayed at the Live Oak cottage, and it was absolutely great. If you like seclusion, this is your place. We took a nice hike when we arrived, walked the grounds. We had a 3 course meal with our stay as well as a complimentary continental breakfast (you can also order off of their menu). They offered free water around the grounds...it was hot and humid outside. We played washers, swam (only one other couple their), sat on the porch, and watched the sun set and played pickle ball. Enjoyed our fantastic cottage. It was big enough for 2 couples with a small kitchen, fireplace, and plenty of outdoor sitting or relaxing. Staff is super friendly and accommodating. Before we left, we were thinking of when we can come back. If you want a romantic getaway or a place to really relax this is it. I almost didn't want to write a review so we could keep it to ourselves.

    Really nice remote inn on a large plot of land. We stayed in one of the larger rooms with a view. Room was comfortable and bathroom was fine. Included dinner was good enough, but don't expect gourmet dining. Continental breakfast is included but fuller meal is available for a reasonable cost. Huge pool and very friendly hosts.

I loved the colors and the style of the house. Entering, we were welcomed by Becky and Maxfield. The room was already ready for the massages so we entered a separate room, filled out some paper work, and put on our robes to get ready for the hour. The ambiance was very soothing and relaxing, with quiet music playing and water flowing in the background. We started to lay down on the beds in privacy so we could take our robes off. I called them to enter and while Becky started my boyfriend's massage, Maxfield began my massage on top of the thin blankets then started on my upper back, later my neck, shoulders, arms, lower back, butt, and legs. After about half an hour, both my boyfriend and I flipped over, and our feet, legs, arms, shoulders, and head were massaged. Overall, I loved the massage and my boyfriend did too! We both felt very relaxed after our masseuses finished and all the tension and knots we had were completely gone. I'd definitely recommend Becky and Maxfield if you wanted to get away with your significant other for a full body massage, either for an hour or an hour and a half!

We were told this was an "upgrade" but the math did not work out. The alternate service was $85 less in value. At check-out, we pointed this out. The woman at the desk called the manager, who was very apologetic and invited us back for another day at no cost. At our second appointment, we had a scrub and wrap along with wine and a fruit/cheese plate at no cost. The next day, the manager called to make sure that we were satisfied. Spa Botanica has some major organizational weaknesses. They need to tighten communication among staff and to up-date the descriptions of their treatments. Based on the descriptions, we STILL didn't get the original service that we bought. However, the spa is a lovely and relaxing environment, the staff is accommodating and gracious, and the managers efforts were much appreciated. If rating the staff that cared for us, I would give them a 5. I would not particularly recommend the scrub/wrap or the "swiss bliss" shower. I've had much better. However, the massage was top-notch. My manicure was relaxing and lasted a whole week...which is some kind of spa miracle. Overall, I give them a 3.

    When my husband and I first drove up to The Winfield Inn, we immediately fell in love with the…read morecharm and uniqueness that the property offers. After touring the property with the owner, we decided this was the special place we wanted to tie the knot, so we quickly signed the paperwork and sent our deposit to secure our Friday wedding date. Initially, I felt very confident in the owner, Leslie, and was extremely excited to be working with him. That all changed in the few months leading up to our wedding date. My husband and I discussed with Leslie in person, on two separate occasions and once via email, about us staying the Thursday night before our wedding and having our bridal party stay in the various beds/bedrooms on the property. When Leslie called us the week before our wedding to finalize everything, he claimed that he had no idea we were having other people come and stay and proceeded to tell me it was "a misunderstanding on your part" and that he would require not only an extra one thousand dollars, but that the cottage, that was set to house half of our party, did not have running hot water. We were left to scramble at the last minute to find a new place for our family. Fast forward to the Thursday before our wedding: we get there after the 3pm check in time to start setting up and decorating, and the pavilion is a wreck. The ceiling and walls were caked in dirt, there were leaves and dirt all over the floor and the tables were not set up, as per our contract. We did not complain, just grabbed the broom and swept and set the tables up ourselves. The next day, we were left scrambling for trash bags (per our contract, the venue supplied trash bags), there were strings of lights that were out, and there was a dead bird in the pavilion. As the evening went on, the owner Leslie, showed up towards the last few hours of our reception and proceeded to bombard our day of coordinator with questions about trash clean up and haul off, after we had already informed him that we hired people to take care of everything. We did not notice until a few days later, that Leslie had sent my husband an email on the night of our wedding stating that we should "go ahead and send him $250 for clean up." It did not end there. A week later, my husband reached out to Jack, the property manager, to ask about a few missing items we thought might have been left on the property. Jack then informed us that one of our guests had popped a balloon with confetti in it, in the grass, in which he stated we should "bring a vacuum" to clean it up. Once my husband confronted him with the various issues we had that previous week at our wedding, Jack quickly turned the blame to the owner saying that "Leslie is in over his head at times." The amount of unprofessionalism shown by these two men was, and still is, extremely disappointing. The owner was clearly unorganized and would frequently confuse me with the Saturday bride. My husband and I were questioned on whether we made our deposit and final payment the week before our wedding and requested receipts. I found out a few weeks after my wedding, that the owner was trying to blame me, as the bride, for the lack of basic housekeeping for his business (bedsheets changed, beds made, toilets scrubbed, floors swept and mopped). It has taken me a few months to write this review because every time I thought about my wedding, it would bring negative reminders of the unnecessary stress and issues that were added by the venue. I am now able to focus on the only positive, which is marrying my husband. The Winfield Inn is an extremely unique and gorgeous property, but the owner and property manager, in my opinion, are not worth the money, or stress. Until the owner hires someone to take over management, I will not be recommending this venue to anyone in the near future.
