Other info about property:
This home is on a well. There are 2 Reverse Osmosis (purified water) spigots. One in kitchen sink and one in the laundry sink. Please use those for drinking. The well water is safe, just doesn't taste as good.
This is a RANCH HOUSE, it sits on 20 acres of land in the Texas Hill Country. There is likely to be insects, small predators (rabbits, snakes, foxes...), as well as Longhorn cattle and deer on the land. The house, yard, and pool area are treated regularly for insects and pests but there may be an occasional insect that makes it into the house. If you bring pets, they must be on a leash outside of deck gates. There is a lot of wildlife and the donkey is very protective of the longhorns.
Absolutely no smoking in the home. There is an exterior cigarette container by covered parking- please keep smoking limited to that area.

Best weekend ever
Incredible location for family gatherings or wedding reception. We spent the weekend here and had an amazing time; the venue is beautiful and it was able to house our family for a truly special weekend. Also the entire process of booking it, communicating with Jana, viewing the venue prior to make sure everything would fit, all the logistical side of things were made easy for us. Jana was absolutely wonderful. Her and Tommy made the entire stay stress free, at one point we thought one of the door locks had run out of battery and Tommy was there within minutes to fix it. We feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to celebrate our marriage on this property with our loved ones! Cannot recommend this place enough!

Longhorn Getaway
Had a great time during my stay at Longhorn Getaway. It has everything you could ever need in a Vrbo. We really enjoyed the pickleball court and disc gold course. Was also even more beautiful in person. The pictures do not do it justice! Will certainly be coming back next time I visit Austin.

Perfect Home for a Family Reunion
The Longhorn Getaway was incredible for our annual family reunion! Safety for our littles was our number one concern, and this property couldn't be beat! The fence around the pool was a life-saver! Pool accidents are so common and no other VRBOs had any safety fences. The peace of mind that provided was paramount. The kiddos also loved the pickleball court and couldn't get enough of the longhorns & donkey. The bunk beds were definitely squeaky and the futons slept one adult instead of 2, but the amenities of this place couldn't be beat! Thanks again for such an incredible stay!

Perfect place for a wedding and family gathering
Jana is the absolute best hostess! She made securing this property so easy and was accommodating and welcoming. The location is absolutely perfect and even more perfect for our wedding. We stayed here for nearly a week with our family and had our wedding here with absolutely no complaints from anyone about anything. We were also able to see the fireworks from this location. The kids had a great time swimming and exploring the property and even got to pet the donkey. The home was so inviting and perfect for a large family. I could not have asked for anything more. Thank you so much for everything 💜

Phenomenal Experience
Booked this place for my groomsmen and I to stay before the wedding and it was the best time we could’ve asked for! They even allowed us to host a welcome party for our wedding guests the night before the wedding. Jana, the host, is super responsive if anything is needed. We noticed the AC had stopped working right before leaving for a few hours and it was fixed before we got back to the house. 5 stars all around!

Great house with a lot of activities
Everyone (adults as children) enjoyed our weekend in this house with pool (especially when it was 100°F outside), pickleball, games, etc… It was close to all the places we visited (Hamilton pool, Lake Travis, Pedernales Falls) and to the supermarket. The communication with Jana was very easy. We recommend the house at 100% !

More than the pictures!
everything was top notch at the house. there is more serving pieces than noted in the photos and two refrigerators along with a big walk in pantry, which helps with food storage. the views from the back of the house were awesome - complete with 2 longhorns and a donkey! plenty of activities - heated pool, pickleball, corn hole etc. we were in for a wedding and the venue was a mile up the road - which was so great. Beds were comfy and plenty of towels were provided - plus laundry machines were available as needed. the only thing i’d recommend is an ice machine or provide a couple bags of ice for beverages - we found ourselves running out for ice. i would HIGHLY recommend this beautiful home and great host/hostess. they were available and responsive for any questions and even provided a couple u tube videos which explained more about the house. we had a wonderful stay abs the property exceeded our e ie rations - better than the photos!!

Great stay for friends wedding weekend
We rented the Longhorn B&B with a group of several friends (with their kids) for a nearby wedding. The property exceeded our expectations and Jana was great to work with. The pool was great and we enjoyed the fire pit, too. A couple minor minor notes about the beds: the bunk beds in the bunk room are squeaky, and the people who stayed in that room were very self-conscious of moving at night so as not to bother others. Also: we had hoped that the futons might be able to accommodate two people but realized once we arrived that they fold out to somewhere between a twin and full, and therefore can only really fit one person. Overall we had a great stay and would go back!

If we are in Dripping Springs again, we will definitely be back! The common spaces were large enough for our group to cook, play cards, and spend time together. We could see the longhorns and the donkey from the large windows. There was plenty of parking for our 5 cars, the wifi worked great, and every detail was perfect.

We stayed here for one of my son’s wedding. The house was beautiful as were the furnishings. I was cooking for our family so it was great that the kitchen was well stocked! I think that this is by far the best VRBO rental we’ve seen.
