Great outdoor soace

The property was super easy to find. The host communicated quickly when we had questions. The outdoor space was well groomed and had comfortable adirondack chairs around a gas fire pit. It was a perfect space for hanging out after a day of wine and shopping.

Cozy Little House

The location was perfect for our son’s wedding in Hye. It was walking distance to “town”. It had everything we needed including a lovely backyard seating area. It was great to have a covered driveway considering we had a huge storm one night!

Comfortable

Great place for my wife and 2 teenagers to spend a couple of days. We had everything we needed and host was great and nearby if needed. Beds were comfortable and kitchen well supplied. Rained too much for Cornhole, but I loved seeing the boards and bags there. Covered parking was a big plus. Thank you!

Wonderful home!

My husband and I were delighted with this charming and well equipped home. We stayed in Johnson City for a family wedding. Glad the house had a hairdryer, iron, microwave etc. Easy walk to a great coffee shop next door. We visited several local wineries which was fun. The host was a great communicator. Highly recommend this very clean and adorable home.

Girls trip

The Little Dipper is very nice. I loved how it was decorated. It fit the house perfectly. It is very close to a lot of the wineries we visited. A hop, skip and jump to Fredericksburg which we went too during our adventure. We hope to do this again soon.

Quiet neighborhood, beautifully restored home.

Beautifully restored older home in a quiet neighborhood close to the downtown area. The house was very clean with newer appliances and furnishings. There were deer in the yard across the street from the house. We really liked the house and area and would definitely consider staying here again.
