The perfect weekend stay for our family! We had plans to go into San Antonio one day and into New Braunfels the next, and Susie’s farm was a great, neutral location with the calm and peacefulness of the hill country we needed. Susie was an amazing host and our boys loved every minute of the farm tour, and wanted to stay longer than the weekend. The container home had everything we needed for the four of us, and the view of the farm was so relaxing. We even made a fresh egg breakfast thanks to Susie and her chickens! This was the best VRBO experience and memories were made that we’ll cherish for a lifetime.

Great quiet place
Nice quiet adventure in a shipping container ..which sounds like it's cramped but it was really roomy. Nice little alpaca tour where we learned about the alpacas. The host provided some really nice extra such as coffee creamer, pancake mix eggs how nice it was to have farm fresh eggs. Also some really nice alpaca made products. You can purchase there as well for a very nice price. Very reasonable in my opinion. You are also very close to other attractions such as going into San Antonio. Going to New Braunfels going to Schlitterbahn. It's a great location but you're in the country

Beautiful location with adorable alpacas
Our stay at this unique place was relaxing. The personal tour to meet the cute alpacas up close was amazing. The host was very welcoming and easy to communicate with. We will definitely stay again.
