My sister always wanted to stay in a tiny house, so her and I rented this for a weekend! Here are a few bullet points about our experience and expectations:
- we didn’t realize the small plot of land it actually was on, really only space for a parked car and the house and a little wilderness, but there were new houses being built across the street, and a house you can see from the kitchen window.
-the location is pretty close to things and makes going to dripping springs and leaving to and from pretty accessible. But not if you’re trying to immerse yourself in nature
-the shelves in the tiny house were kind or dirty when we got there with stuff on then like pepper. This wasn’t a big deal, just for the price, I was expecting it to be more immaculate. The soap dispensers in the bathrooms were also really messy.
-the couch in the living room is just one big cushion that we put in the floor and I slept on that while my sister slept in the loft.
-the couch really looked like it converted into a bed with the cushion on top of it, but we just couldn’t figure it out and didn’t want to break it, so that is why we moved it to the floor!
-we didn’t end up using the outdoor table because we only ate breakfast there, and it was cold in the morning. -We just sat on the ground in the living room and ate our pancakes, but something to note is there is not really an indoor dining spot( it is a tiny home! :))
- it looks just like photos and is beautifully made and the layout is really nice! All the details made this place so photogenic, they really did a great job!
-we loved the books and games that they had in there. So fun to look at and try some new games that we hadn’t played before and of course use the decks of cards!
-the air conditioning was nice and all of the windows!! So much natural light
-the shower worked well and have really hot water, it honestly was probably nicer than my shower at home except we both had trouble keeping it at a good temp that wasn’t scolding or freezing and keeping the pressure good.
-there were some fire ants inside, but not too many!
-we got to see the donkeys and bunnies!
- the wifi worked really well too!
-the check-in and check-our instructions were clear and we could find everything we needed on the page (except for the couch bed instructions!)
-we had to switch weekends from one weekend to the next, and it was available but said you needed to book 3 nights, instead of the original 2 that we had booked and the owners were flexible about letting us just do the two, but didn’t mention there was a higher cost for doing the weekend that we did over just the weekend prior. This was fine, but when the reschedule policy says it was free, but it wasn’t, that stunk!
-Overall, we really enjoyed our time there and it was a really nice place to stay!
