Lonesome Dove - Spacious Log Cabin on 8 Acres, Ample Outdoor Amenities

Lonesome Dove Lodge is a truly unique custom built cabin with 7-inch log exterior walls, nestled in the hill country on nearly 8 private acres. This property is perfect for couples looking for a fun bonding weekend or memorable family getaways. The first thing you'll notice is the tranquil Koi-filled pond with two waterfall features just off front porch. There is a walkway that leads you over the pond to a large deck under a canopy of shade trees, perfect for lounging in the afternoons.

Inside the cabin is an open kitchen and living room that features custom built birch cabinets and three hand made Tiffany-style chandeliers. The master bedroom has a king size bed and an en-suite bathroom. There are three more bedrooms each offering a king size bed and one bedroom with a queen size bed. Every bedroom is equipped with a flat screen TV.

Off the back of the house is a screened-in porch that makes a great place to sip your morning coffee bug-free. There is also a large patio with lounge furniture, a brand new hot tub, and a propane grill. The pool area is completely fenced and also has a nice pavilion offering shade while you watch others splash around in the pool.

This was a great property for our family of 6 adults and 4 kids - ages 7 months to 6 years. The layout of the home was great for sleeping babies and the outdoor areas were well designed to keep kids contained. We spent a lot of time in the pool which was great for children. The fish pond was also a hit. We saw deer and hummingbirds. We would definitely return.

Great family getaway

Beautiful property, well furnished and equipped. Has several large gathering spaces.This was a mature siblings and spouses getaway. The height of the beds did present a problem for a few of us. There were several step stools but were a bit precarious for our mobility impaired. A little disappointing, especially since Lonesome Dove is one of the few, maybe only, properties in the area with 5 bedrooms on ground level.

Great girls weekend at Lonesome Dove

Our group of six college friends had the pleasure of staying at Lonesome Dove. The house was more than adequate for our needs, and we certainly enjoyed the pool each day. We also enjoyed the lovely deck in the front of the house with the waterfall and pond. The house was very clean, which can be difficult to achieve in the country. Please note that some of the beds are quite tall, and we were grateful that some rooms came with stools to help us get into bed. The kitchen was well-equipped, and having two refrigerators and freezers was a nice touch. We are absolutely hoping to stay there again.

Laid Back & Secluded

Loved that this place has 5 bedrooms and 3 of them have bathrooms. A 4th bathroom is located close to the other 2 bedrooms. Location is down a long, narrow, winding road. Once at the house, you do not see anything except the beautiful hill country. No road noise, but you will hear plenty of FROGS! There is a nice little pond in the front yard with a fountain and lots of frogs. They stay around the pond, so you aren't seeing them, just hearing them. The pool is amazing! Would be nice if there was lighting around the pool and along the path to the pool. There were several solar lights along the pathway and around the deck but very few of them worked. We would definitely love to stay here again in the future.

Beautiful area, not 100% clean...

Overall the property was beautiful and pretty much what was expected. I am a little concerned that the enclosed patio was so dirty - there were literal cobwebs under all the furniture. And when I cleaned up water off the floor inside, the towel came up with a dirt mark, which tells me the floor was not cleaned well beyond maybe a sweeping. Lastly, there was a singular false eyelash sitting by the pool. I was the only one able to use the pool during the trip and I most definitely do not wear false lashes.There was also a dead scorpion in the pool, so I'm not sure the pool was cleaned out in between visits. Or that the pool area was cleaned period. The property is great, but for the price, I expected pristine cleanliness.

Great spot! The spacious layout easily accommodated our sizable group, providing ample room (and bathrooms!) for everyone. One of the standout features was the outdoor area, complete with a screened in porch, a pool and a relaxing hot tub. I was impressed with the cleanliness and would highly recommend this place.

Nice family retreat

We very much enjoyed this scenic property for our family Thanksgiving retreat. We had a couple of glitches (hot water heater, hot tub) which the owner addressed. We really liked the property, property management, and property owner, and are planning a summer retreat there (to enjoy the beautiful pool the property has).

We (7 people) had a great time! The large house is in a very serene setting, beautiful pond with lovely landscaping. Having access to the private pool and hot tub was great at the end of each day. Just a few minutes to get into into town, this was the perfect place for our family/friends get-away.

Wimberly Ladies Trip

Lonesome Dove was wonderful on all levels! It is incredibly clean throughout the house. It is well stocked with dishes, pots/pans/silverware/spices for cooking. All the bathrooms have shampoo/conditioners/body wash with very nice towels and plenty of hot water for six women. We gave an A to every bed/and the pillows. So many places to enjoy &relax. A TV in every bedroom and the living area! Our interaction with the staff/owner was extremely positive. This is a perfect place for a ladies retreat or several families. It is definitely an A++ home rental. And it’s not easy to impress six grown mature women, but we were definitely impressed.

Time with Friends

Loved Lonesome Dove. It’s quiet and out in the country but close enough to Wimberly for shopping and restaurants. The pool was well used as it was in the 90s during our stay. It was very clean but didn’t rate 5 stars due to dusty air vents and screened porch not having been cleaned under the furniture with cobwebs under chairs. Minor but should be addressed. Outdoor spaces were great and we used all of them. Kitchen a bit small for more than one person but laundry room had added storage and second refrigerator. Would definitely recommend.
