    The restaurant near pool closed all day on Sunday. Not much to do in the evenings.

    Many options for kiddos to be entertained. Fun pool!

    Stayed on a Monday night. Price was the same as if we had booked any other night but there was no facilities to get a drink or snack. We were then told we couldn’t leave our room with our own alcohol!! Even though we couldn’t purchase any from you that night. Would have liked to have a walk round with a drink in hand in the sunshine.

    Absolutely loved our stay!! It was so relaxing

    We upgraded from a cabin which we found too small and dark inside. The historic villa we upgraded to was very nice.

    The rural location was lovely. The staff were very friendly and there was plenty of entertainment on site. We particularly enjoyed the wagon ride and the evenings round the camp fire with Buck.

    Everything was good.

    Everyone was friendly and attentive. The amenities were definitely the best part of the stay. Seeing and feeding the deers was fun. The carriage horse drawn ride was fun. My kids enjoyed the smores and getting to meet Buck. The live music was nice in the evenings. The food at the restaurant was great. Best 4th of July weekend.

    We had a problem with the sofa bed. It was broken and that made it almost impossible to sleep on. More detailed instructions needed for AC in both areas. The bathroom needs a heater in there. We had to request a portable.

    The bathroom was awesome! Loved the deep tub! The queen beds were okay but felt springs through the mattress.

    Great place to stay and explore the area. Everyone was really helpful and friendly. They gave us lots of recommendations for places to eat including the best hamburgers in Bandera at a gas station and the OST for breakfast. We also tried the Bandera Brewery on their suggestion which had great live music too. We played putt putt, table tennis and had a really comfortable 2 bed villa. Would definitely recommend.

    The iron fence railing around the pool posts were all rusted through at the ground contact making it an easy thing to lean against and the entire fence railing would fall over. Could be a liability issue Flying L might want to repair. Also the pool rafters demonstrate that the roofers used nails causing water leakage and severe decay damage. Very nice pool though. Kid swam for about two hours during the eclipse start.

    Breakfast was good. The room atmosphere was very country and enjoyable. Staff super courteous and kind.

    We have stayed in Villa #41 3 times and each time the bed has been horrible, the mattress was probably the most uncomfortable that I have ever layed on in all my years of travel . Did not sleep hardly any in the nights there and the 2 times before .

    Liked the location, the peacefulness, wildlife !!

    The beds were just very uncomfortable. Felt like the frame was going to break in half when you sat on the middle. The pillows were old. The one I used felt like it has been washed and was clumpy, and ended up with a crick in my neck. The floors need a serious cleaning and the grout resealed. Grout is not supposed to be black especially when you can look at the exterior grout in the room and it is way lighter. The bathroom floor was disgusting and had a thick sticky film on top. Wear shoes at all times. The pull out couch bed was very, very thin and the plastic mattress cover was filthy and there was a silver fish insect running around on it. We had to use several cleaning wipes to get all the dirt off and even then it was unusable. They should really consider better training for the cleaning crew. Additionally, the inside of the Branding Iron Grill was just small and not very inviting.

    The saltwater pool was a nice size and the water clean despite the concrete looking like it needed some serious maintenance. The receptionists were great and very nice. The playgrounds and putt putt were awesome! Overall a cool concept for a resort but it needs a serious facelift. We had dinner there at the Branding Iron Grill and the food was great. Our waitress was nice but not very attentive. The sweet little guy bringing out the food was working much harder than our waitress was.

    The cabin is very small, I felt that the price was high for what was offered. It was dark in the cabin, the only way to get light in was to open the front door but it was cold when we were there, also wouldn't want anything crawling in. Also the view from or cabin was more than disappointing, we looked straight out to the water system or septic tanks... Don't know what the were. A toaster in the room should have made a difference for breakfast.

    The area is beautiful. The entertainment in the evening is wonderful. The food in the restaurant is delicious. Everyone is very friendly and helpful. The cabin was clean. My kids enjoyed the stay, played pickle ball, basketball etc.
