We loved the location. It was a little smaller than we expected but worked for our family of 6. We served Thanksgiving dinner outside on the deck and it was beautiful. The deer met us every morning and each evening. You felt like you were out in the middle of nowhere when only a few miles outside of Austin.

The house has a lovely deck, though the stairs to get to the lower level are pretty scary, with nothing to indicate that they don't run the full length of the deck. The house was attractive and comfortable, but it lacked many of the usual amenities, such as salt and pepper or laundry detergent.

This trip was very unfavorable. We stayed in this property in Oct on last year and it was great. The management company was terrible, the grass was high, the house was really not cleaned, dried dog poop on the sun deck, both lights out in the bathroom and remained that way until we left, the floater vail was broken so water was dripping every time we went to the restroom and you couldn’t flush it, you had to wait for about 30 mins after you flushed it before flushing, they did get that fixed but the rest I made calls to the management co I was told every time we apologize for your inconvenience someone will contact you by 6:00pm and that still has yet to happen. I have pics to validate all of my charges When I made the reservations they never hesitated to collect my money. I will never rent that property again. Something should’ve been done to compensate me. This was our 47th Anniversary and I’m so done with the way things were handled. Very unhappy and displeased guest

Had a very nice trip, the place is cozy, my 5 year old nephew enjoyed sitting on the back porch in the morning to watch the deer, and trying to play Tennis at the courts right next to it
Overall very nice place, comfortable, outdoor seating and a small grill is nice, location is near a small airport, but activity was around 2 planes a day while we were there
Make sure you get enough groceries, its about 20-30 minutes to the store.

The property was great with lots of trees, deer, a gray fox, chalet type construction and very well stocked with necessary items. The neighborhood is old but has a lot of new construction. The house we stayed in has been updated with really great appliances and lots of neat outdoor seating. We loved sitting out under the trees and on the front porch.
We never spoke with the property manager at all. I don't think I even had a number to reach the owners or manager. Maybe VRBO takes care of everything. This is my first experience to lease a home through them. The instructions for entering and exiting the gated community and the house were clear though.
The only complaint that I have is that the bathtub had not been cleaned. It had a ring around it and soap scum and hair around the drain.
I would recommend this place to anyone wanting to just get-away and relax. The deck had a very nice table and chairs and a buffet table so you could entertain if you chose to. We really enjoyed sitting out under the trees and watching the wildlife.

We went for a low key girls’ weekend. Lovely property with plenty of space. Back deck is perfect to relax unwind and admire the deer. Property is a little far from restaurants and grocery, so plan accordingly. Wonderful property!

This was one of the best trips we’ve had in a long time. It was delightful to drink coffee on the deck while watching the deers. The house was wonderful and the pillows was the best. My husband and I will be back very soon. My problems were attended to by the turnkey staff in a timely manner. We will rent It again

Summer Family Hill Country Vacation
We decided to plan a vacation that was convenient for all members of our family. Spicewood in the Texas Hill Country was the perfect choice!! We enjoyed the privacy of a darling cottage home that was within driving distance to Lake Travis. The pool and tennis courts were right across the street, and several beaches and water activities were within 10-25 minutes. Meals were spent outside on the large deck enjoying the local wild life that frequently stopped by to say hello. We enjoyed a week of relaxation, water sports, and quality family time. Thank you Turnkey!!!

Reviewer Comments:
This little cottage was lovely. We thought because it was 3 bedroom and 2 bath, it was larger (we didn't look at the sq feet which is clearly on listing) but for two families it worked well. The back porch and yard area is nice as well. It is right across the street from the community pool which was pretty much unattended our entire stay. It felt like a personal pool! The house was very clean (we did kill a decently sized scorpion inside, but welcome to the country in Texas!). The kitchen was pretty well stocked, however it was missing a few standard items like some kind of baking dish or sheet, measuring cups, and oil. We also walked around the lovely neighborhood to the lake and took a trip to Krause Springs, which is less than 10 mins. We would recommend it!

Spicewood
Overall property was clean and in order. Couple of items when we checked in, back screen door is stuck in open position, cobwebs in downstairs shower, toilet seat loose in downstairs bathroom, some windows need a good cleaning on outside. Other than that the house was clean and comfortable and we enjoyed our stay.

Just perfect
The cottage was great... quiet, private and sitting out on the deck or porch at night was our favorite! We had the pool to ourselves too! And the deer- they practically came up to the deck! We loved every minute of our stay.

We had the best time ever! We spent most of our time outdoors on the huge patio and porch. If you love outdoor cookouts, deer and just nature, this is a great place to experience it all at one house.
