Improvement from prior stays. There are only two hotels in Bandera, so choice is limited. There are several cabins in the area.

Don't stay here!!! Worst accommodation we've had! Broken toilet, dirty floor, grubby shower, patched up door, noisy. Thread bare towels... The advertised 'complimentary drink' was water and we didn't even get that. Terrible staff, no friendly welcome. Not local Texans and it showed! Too expensive by far for this low standard!

Great for Motorcycles!

Perfect place for a motorcycle trip. Fair price, good location. Exceptional owners! The place has had a nice facelift, but could still use some more, Bathrooms are in need of remodel.

Pretty good for a weekend motorcycle trip

It was okay. Main complaint is that the Wi-Fi kept kicking me off so I had to go thru the login process many times. Bed and pillows were nice and comfortable. Clean and plenty of hot water.
