This is our second stay here. The hosts are the friendliest people you could ever meet. We had a few hiccups but they were there to help. The house was very clean from top to bottom and very comfortable. Kitchen area has just what you need while staying there and the bed was super comfy. We will be coming back next year!!!

This little cabin was perfect for our couples getaway! It’s off the beaten path yet close to everything we wanted to do! The cabin was clean and cozy. Has everything you need if you want/need to cook. Bed was comfortable. Nice quiet relaxing spot! Will definitely be staying again on our next visit to NBTX.

Amazing spot to stay! The house was so cute, the perfect size. Love that they’re pet friendly! The owner was super helpful, fixed an alarm we heard outside within 20 minutes. They even had all the instructions for the house, access, and amenities readily accessible. It was a peaceful, fun stay. Would love to come again!

Escape the City

We really enjoyed our stay. Far enough away from the tourists for a peaceful getaway, but close enough to drive to town when we wanted to. We never stayed in a tiny house but is was nice and cozy for my husband and I. We would definitely recommend it!
