One night in Bandera

Everything! Tracy who checked us in was amazing. She told us all about the area, gave us all the info on the local bars and shops and what was happening.
The place is absolutely amazing.
The bed was the best I have ever slept in

Cons:

The only downside is we didnt book more time there.
Will definitely be back

Tracy is the perfect host letting us know what’s on and with great eating recommendations. She made the stay a 5 star ex
Pros:

The cabin was set in a lovely area and was nothing like a motel. You were detached from everyone else and able to park right outside the front door

Cons:

Nothing, better than expected

Perfect, value for money stop over and Tracey was an amazing welcoming host who gave us all the top tips of where to eat
Pros:

Great location for our one night stop over.
An easy drive for our trail ride with Historic Bandera, & a short stroll to town afterwards for the “Cowboy” bars.

Cons:

Only downside for us was the road noise which started up around 04:30, but with the air conditioning on it wasn’t too bad.
Bring ear plugs.

Pros:

Posizione ottima per poter visitare Bandera a piedi, con i principali locali tutti vicino. Le stanze sono molto caratteristiche e pulite. Tracy è molto simpatica e ci ha consigliato locali dove poter mangiare e trascorrere la serata, oltre che a fornirci un sacchettino di mais da poter dare alle anatre che ogni tanto girottolavano intorno alle stanze o lungo il fiume.
