A beautiful retreat
The house was a hidden treasure. Nestled among the hills giving us great privacy yet so close to Garner State Park, Utopia, and Leaky. We stayed mostly on the property since there was so much to do. Really enjoyed looking at the family collections, artwork, and photos throughout the house. Our grandkids spent a lot of time in the pool or at the ping pong table. Mornings on the deck watching the sunrise and recording bird songs was so inspiring. The kids are already looking forward to returning next summer.

Family time in the Hill Country
We had a great time at Bluebird Hill. Leann was pleasant to work with and was responsive to our inquiries. The house was comfy and the a/c worked great. The pool was great and we enjoyed hikes in the country on the 200+ acre ranch. There were 15 of us and we had a blast. The deck and bbq grill are in very good shape. The trees on the property are gorgeous. Lots of wildlife to see. Located just a few miles from the entrance to Garner State Park. This is a beautiful part of Texas and we will be back.

Comfortable spacious
We stayed in house and studio apartment above. Lots of room and lots of outdoor spaces to spread out. House is comfortable and laid back. Lots of birds, and best of all dark sky’s. Make sure you read what to bring carefully. It’s reasonable though and stores nearby .

Great Thanksgiving getaway
We, our kids and grandkids had the best time ever hiking through the trails, enjoying the colorful foliage and nature, spotting tracks and being startled by a buck while taking some sunset pictures. The home was great for our huge family and very interesting collections of all sort. We didn’t use the pool, but a few weathered it and enjoyed the hot tub one evening. We are definitely looking forward to coming back soon!

Here for the twisted sisters?
I’ll start off first by praising the property owners on setting up a well established property. Every step of renting here was served on a silver platter. I organize a car club and regularly come out to drive the hill country roads and this place checks every box! Lots of space, covered parking, simple instructions, short distance to our favorite roads, and a property with everything you could want. I loved my stay here and look forward to many more years of partnering up for my events. You won’t regret staying here I promise!

Family vacation
There were 20 of us, ages 13 months to 72 years. More than enough places to sleep. All of the kitchen appliances & utensils you could want. Everyone loved the pool. Even the children enjoyed being outside watching the hummingbirds at the fountain and in the flowers. Everyone had a great time.

Our favorite place so far!
We’ve been vacationing at the Frio for years now, and this was our favorite place to stay by far! We love that it’s off the beaten path, and honestly, we only left to go to the river once the entire stay. The hiking trail was fun and perfect for taking the kids on. The entire place was just so beautiful and relaxing! We’ll definitely be back!

Birthday weekend
I wanted a quiet and relaxing weekend with some family for my husbands bday. We got that and much more. Not only was it beautiful and quiet, it was full If history. There were old news paper clippings, sign in books, cook books, and so much more. We are planning on going again. The pool and hot tub were fantastic as well.

Peaceful Getaway
The house was awesome, plenty of room for 12 adults. Would be a nice getaway for a family gathering. Nice yard. I seen quite a few hummingbirds (my favorite). The house was easy to find, paved roads and not too far from town. I would definitely stay there again.
