A few reviews.....

"Our reunion was a great success!  All agreed.  All agreeing is a miracle!  You did 'exceed our expectations.'  That is something we find increasingly hard to find in the world today!  

We travel an average of 110 days a year.  We know great service when we find it.  We found it with you.  Hillside Acres is in the middle of nowhere, BUT, is definitely in the middle of all of the Hill Country attractions."
Jack and Mary

"We had a wonderful stay at Hillside Acres Retreat!  The property is gorgeous and it was very quiet and peaceful here during our visit.  Thank you so much!  We will definitely recommend this place to friends and family and will most likely be back.  Never mind, we will definitely be back!  Cheers!  Thank you so much!"

"We have been thrilled by the beautiful cabins and lovely scenery surrounding the area.  Every bed was comfortable, the kitchen was stocked, decor of home was clean and uniquely creative, plus we got to enjoy the chickens and walking around the property.  My son and his cousin loved- LOVED- the wagons and took many rides in them around the property and to explore the stream near the farm animals.  The drive in is a feeling like you are going to a ranch and the cabins are rustic but with the beauty and convenience of a hotel. This is where to stay in Texas hill country"

Just 30 minutes from the Austin airport, this haven is close to wineries including those located in the Texas Hill Country and Bell Springs. On site it allows guest to fish in its private ponds, go swimming and hiking and even cozy up by the fire pit for some marshmallows and hot dogs- to make the holiday as traditional or out of the box as you and yours desire this year."
