This beautiful property couldn't be named more appropriately, The Retreat. Our large family gathers every summer for a week-long family reunion. We use an open-door policy to accommodate everyone's work schedules, so we had between 10 and 23 people on different days (4 generations from ages 3 to 83). Each couple loved having their own bedroom and bathroom. We used the bunkroom for a cousin's sleepover.
We loved the proximity to all of the food and entertainment nearby, but also the option to just hang out at the house, swimming, playing pool & games, visiting and watching movies. The swimming pool and hot-tub were a hit, with plenty of space for everyone; we especially loved being able to swim in the evenings. Those that didn't swim loved being able to sit in the shade on the porch and still be able to visit with everyone. We loved the open concept which made the stay very inclusive, making it easy to visit while preparing food. For shopping, HEB and Wal-mart are less than 10 minutes away. We had two members that used the office to be able to work virtually online, but also still be able to make the reunion. Our hostess, Vanessa, was very helpful and responsive when we had questions.
We loved the isolation of being out in the Texas Hill Country, we had it all to ourselves without any disturbances from noisy neighbors. We were treated to watching deer while out at the pool with amazing sunsets, followed by unbelievable views of the night sky without city light
