Amazing little spot in a great western town

We loved the Lonesome Dove Hotel. My husband and I stayed for a weekend and we would have liked to have stayed longer. Its a small place, but has been designed to be very cozy and comfortable. The location is perfect and we walked to town, which is a really fun place to explore. This place has everything you need and has been decorated beautifully with a true western flair.

Great Cottage with reserved parking out front. We enjoyed being in the thick of things. I recommend a good set of noise canceling headphones if your going to bed before 1am :)

Camp pick-up in Bandera

This room with kitchenette and little living area was perfect. We were there for just 1 night picking our boys up from camp. It is perfectly located across from fun bars etc. and a short walk to many restaurants. Will definitely consider staying here again! Thank you.

Two steppers paradise

We rented this place for a weekend get away only an hour from our house and was well worth it. The town itself was awesome with the river and dance halls and bars as well as shopping unique stores. The little house is right in the middle of all of this within walking distance! During the day we cooled off in the river and in the evening closed down the cowboy bar with cold beer and two stepping to live music, which is right across the street! Decor was awesome, front porch was great too, lots of people watching. If you do rent this place be sure to put the cones out that are on the side of the building or your spot will get taken. Other than it was amazing and we will definitely be back!

PERFECT little getaway!!

Spencer and everyone else at Backwoods Reservations truly understand customer service! I had so many issues when it came to booking a place to stay through a separate booking site and Spencer spent so much time helping me out! Apart from that, the stay was perfect. We parked the truck when we got there and it didn’t move until we left...that’s how close you are to everything! The place is clean, has a home feel, and offers everything that you need for a laid back getaway. I hope you like live music, because 11st Street is open until 2am every night with love music!

Great couple get away!

Well described in the listing - accurate pictures. We loved the Lonesome Dove theme and was a perfect setting for a south Texas Western weekend. Very comfortable cabin - great “world famous western bar” directly across the street. Great country bands Friday & Saturday night . Fun shopping and food all in walking distance. We had a blast! Thank you for a great getaway!

Downtown, Dining, Dancing, Dang Cute!

The Lonesome Dove property is so cute! Location is KEY with this property, as it's just FEETaway from the 11th Street Cowboy Bar in Bandera! Lots of opportunities for people watching and no lack of LOUD music to serenade you every night! On busy nights, 11th Street is hoppin'!! My husband and I stayed here during the Experience Bandera/Labor Day weekend. We were able to walk to Main Street for the wonderful parade and all the fun shops and restaurants! The furnishings inside are very fun: Western décor, and little Texas touches everywhere! The bed and linens were very comfortable and we had plenty of room to spread out and relax. This property is a decorator's dream and can inspire all sorts of projects! However, we did find a few frustrations with the cooling system and ceiling fans inside the house. This property does NOT have central air, but rather a ductless air conditioning system...and we struggled to understand how to work it! During our two-night stay we were never able get the air at a comfortable temperature which caused some frustration. Same with the ceiling fans--very cute, and a decorator's dream....but not very efficient. Detailed instructions for the air conditioning and the ceiling fans would be helpful for other guests! Overall, the Lonesome Dove Guesthouse was a good choice. We liked being right in the middle of the action and enjoyed seeing the town of Bandera. Thank you!
