Lovely Bait House

The Bait House was a great place to spend a few days while exploring the hill country. I had everything I needed, and it was very clean. Nancy and Kent were great hosts. I would definitely book again if ever in the area again.

Lovely Tiny Home

My partner, our two pups, and I had a lovely stay at this tiny little home. It had everything we needed including gorgeous sunrises and all the kitty cuddles we could ask for! We were a bit surprised that the other homes and RVs were so close together, as we were hoping for privacy and little more freedom for our dogs, but we got over it pretty quickly as we enjoyed the quiet mornings with butterflies feeding from the sunflowers all around the home and a gorgeous park and lake just around the bend. The park was absolutely breathtaking and allowed for infinite grasses and waters for the pups to enjoy full force without a crowd.

Cute Cabin, Great Hosts

Very cute, comfortable, well maintained cabin with all the basics. The space is part of a larger RV/Cabin resort called the Orrasis. Interior photos on vrbo are accurate. Shaffer Bend Recreation area is just down the road and a nice place to hike. Easy drive into town of Marble Falls. Hosts are lovely and it's evident they take pride and joy in their land. They went out of their way to accommodate my electric vehicle charging needs. The property isn't as remote as I would have liked and presumed from the online description. It is next to a heavily trafficked farm to market road. Saturday was especially noisy even with a fan. Sunday noises were much more mellow and quiet. Aside from the vehicle/motorcycle sounds being a bummer, the property is a nice place to rest and rejuvenate.

Spring Break get away!

We had a wonderful time at the Bait House! It was me, my husband and our 2 older dogs. The area had things to do from hiking, biking, and the adventure park. I highly recommend taking a relaxing trip into Marble Falls and walking around the square. There is wine tasting, places to shop and eat. Hopefully we can go back soon!

Quaint, unique, and charming spot in the rolling Texas Hill Country!

My husband and I absolutely loved the Bait House! We visited at the end of February, and the day right before our trip temperatures dropped into the low 30's. I was nervous about the outside shower and the heating with these unforeseen freezing temps, but it was zero issue at all. In fact, I'm confident the outside shower was an even better experience because of the cold temperature! And, with the extra space heater provided, we were more than comfortable. The property was incredibly unique, obviously well cared for and maintained, and it was a lot of fun to explore. The Bait House itself was sturdy, clean, well-built, and also very well maintained. We slept comfortably and had everything we needed! We spent two nights and three days at the Bait House. While visiting, we spent a lot of our time in Marble Falls, and the 10-minute drive there was no big deal at all. It's beautiful country out there, so I found it very enjoyable driving anywhere. I'd highly recommend Flat Creek Estates if you're into wine, and there are SO many outdoor places to explore -- Balcones Canyon Lands (Doeskin Ranch, specifically) is beautiful and very nearby, then you've got Turkey Bend, Cow Creek, Shaffer Bend, and the list goes on. Even in Marble Falls the park system they have is quite large and enjoyable to walk around. So if you're looking for somewhere in the Texas Hill Country with lots of charm and plenty to do nearby, definitely check this place out!

Cute place to stay

If you are there to visit Hidden Falls Adventure Park, this place is located about 10 minutes from the park, and 10 minutes to town. The space was very clean and has an outdoor shower, which my husband loves. We will definitely return.

Peaceful & Clean

The Baithouse was everything we needed and more. The property owners live on site but keep to themselves. Privacy was never an issue. They have a great green space! We especially enjoyed the fire pit on the patio. The property is close to town and convenient.
