If you're needing some quiet time and enjoy the terrain and vibe of the hill country in Texas, this is a well thought out business. The cabins sit on a great lookout ridge, and has trails and private little lounging areas all over the property. The Yoku Cabin is simple in a good way, elegant and modern with a tinge of rustic charm. The bed faces 2 doors that are MASSIVE. About 12 feet tall and 10 feet wide, and they open completely up. So you're essentially enjoying the comfort of a nice hotel cabin, while you look directly outside a sprawling hilltop view of all the big valleys and hills. Directly above you is a solid glass ceiling, I wouldn't even call it a skylight because it's 1/3 of the entire ceiling. The patio and deck is big enough ought to accommodate 20 people , though it is just 2 of us. They have a built in electric Blackstone grille with the iron works that wrap around the big deck. In center of the deck there's a perfect sized dipping pool. It's a bit nippy now but I'll be using it in the morning as a wake up. Walk in shower is a very generous size, and the kitchenette is just what we needed to grill our steaks and prep our sides. Counter tops made of concrete and a big mantle. The whole cabin has under lights in smart spots , including the shower which is a very clever touch for that kind of ambience that makes me feel that A.S.M.R. buzz. One of the trails leads down to two highland cows that are adorable and eagerly waiting for their treats. There's a container of sweet feed pellets to hand them and that was an adorable experience. The male is a tank but he's sweet, just don't put your hands anywhere that he can smush them with his huge head. He likes to kinda head-bang gently when you touch him but he is massive, handler beware. We got to pet the little resident farm cat too, a tuxie girl with a gorgeous coat and fluffy feet's. She purrs loud and let us pet her a while. Careful! She's wandering around the compound This is a well thought out little getaway, far enough to feel that you're in the sticks it close enough to go get supplies from HEB and so on. Highly recommend giving this a shot if you're used to the hum drum bed and breakfast type experience. This seems meant more for a city detox and back to nature experience and we love it. We've only been here a half day and already love it. Tomorrow we will go check out the look-out trail that has a pinnacle spot for a vista that's as far as the eye can see. We will look forward to a return again and highly recommend. read more
