Property was not like the pictures. Pictures are AI enhanced. Property interior is very dingy. Dead bugs throughout property. Smells of Mold. Confirmed by the mold spray in the laundry area. Lots and lots of cobwebs. The land and lake access were nice but the house itself was not as expected. Dusty. Outdoor furniture and fire pit need deep cleaning. Spiders found in bed sheets. Left early because we were uncomfortable with the accommodations.

Relaxing birthday trip

My husband brought me here with our 5 year old and 3month old. It was very relaxing and enjoyable. There is a neighbor that seems to live on site, or at least is accessible from the property which I was not aware of.. the river was nice and myself, husband and 5 year old enjoyed playing in it and exploring up and down the river bank. We were a close drive to cypress creek swimming hole so we went there for one of the days which was great! Our puppies really enjoyed themselves also!

Quiet Get Away

My wife and I needed some time away from the stress of work and living in the DFW area. We needed a break from the city. We found this property, and the outdoor space and quiet location were just what we were looking for. With short drives to Wimberley, Gruene, and New Braunfels, we were able to enjoy some small hill country towns and experience Wurst Fest in New Braunfels. We had a great long weekend.

Dome River House

We had a great time, but wish the river had been much closer. It's way too far and steep of a walk for people with children or with disabilities. I wouldn't consider this property to be "riverfront" by any means.

Quiet getaway

This property was unique and secluded, which is what we were looking for. Was very relaxing, spacious and peaceful. Furnishings were clean and comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed. The views and outdoor spaces were very nice. The river was low when we visited, but that is a risk you take; at least the fish were biting!

Great Quiet Experience

The Dome was a nice quiet getaway. Loved reading on the porch. Home was clean and had everything we needed to cook. We did bring wood for firepit. It was a bit of a walk to the river but the field was beautiful and nice to walk through. We didnt go down much due to the climb back up. Easy but uphill with bad knees.

Amazing place!!!!

Our stay was so wonderful. My son moved to San Marcos to go to college and we stayed here when we moved him in to make a fun family vacation out of it. This is where I want to stay every time we visit him! First of all, it’s a dome house, which everyone thought was super cool. And super roomy with plenty of room for my family of 5. There was a beautiful outdoor area and you can walk down to the river. And the stars - oh my goodness!!! I still think about it. We brought our dog and could just walk outside with him and let him run. It was on several acres with lots of trees and was so secluded, quiet and peaceful . And the beds were so comfortable. I highly recommend the Dome Home as we called it, and can’t wait to stay there again!!!

Dirty, Dingy, Roaches - Would NOT recommend

I would like to start by saying I have stayed at this exact property before, about six years ago. Not sure if management changed or got lazy, but our second experience was a nightmare. There is an active infestation of German Cockroaches in the home. We found roaches all over the kitchen, AND in the bedrooms. One had even crawled into a pack and play where an infant was sleeping!! If that wasn't disgusting enough, there was what looked like a blood stain in the laundry room. A simple wipe with a wet paper towel started to lift the stain so it was obvious that the space had simply not been cleaned. We peeked under the couch and it was again obvious that no one had professionally cleaned in months. There was also one garbage bag and one paper towel roll provided. A small complaint I would have looked over, if there weren't so many other things completely wrong, including the fact that the outdoor garbage cans were already overflowing with trash. I would have loved to contact management and complain about these issues; however, there is NO cell service AND NO WIFI on the property. Thankfully, I took many photos to document every issue. Overall, I regret coming back to this place and will not be staying at any other properties managed by Hill Country Premiere Lodging.

German cockroaches

The countertops and table were sticky and covered in food. We had to wipe everything down as soon as we got there as well as sweep. The listing stated there were double beds, there were none. Only 2 kings beds and a bunch of single beds. Not ok for 3 couples. The house was infested with german cockroaches. All of our belongings are now tied up in black trash bags outside as to not infest our house as well. We were only given one and a half extra rolls of toilet paper for 7 people as well as only 1 extra trash bag. Due to the intense amount of cockroach activity, the lack of toilet paper, and the level of the river, which we were told before booking was full (it was not), we all decided to leave a day early. A refund for a night and the cleaning fee would be much appreciated since we couldn’t stay and had to clean upon arrival.

Patios everywhere

Spacious house and nice outside areas for entertaining. The fire pit is great for making smores and the lower patio has amazing views. River access is a little walk but once you're at the water there is another patio area perfect for getting ready to float or just relax and fish. With 4 kids and 4 adults the house had plenty of room without feeling cramped. We will definitely be back!

Scorpion Surprise

The dome is more like a cabin from the sixties, and it feels like it's stuck in the nineties. Overall, things were clean, but it was stale inside. The place is worn down. It has a peat problem with German roaches everywhere. The river has a long walk down. Driving to the river is hard because of the tight turns. The biggest problem was the scorpions... 4 in one day is excessive, especially with an infant. This house wasn’t very child friendly. Overall, the threat of scorpions in the house cause me to flee the house after one night. There was no credit or refund. Do not book if you have small children.
