NomadSTR in Spicewood, Texas

“Booked for my husband's 40th birthday with 17 guests, expecting a memorable celebration. It was stressful throughout, despite the host's efforts to patch things up. We arrived early to setup and found the detached bunkbed suite hadn't been cleaned at all — we waited hours for the cleaner before we could unpack. Leftover 4th of July decor suggested the home hadn't been cleaned in a month. Bugs were everywhere, balconies and patio furniture covered in spider webs and bird droppings, and the pool needed skimming ourselves, no hair dryers and 7 pool towels for 17 guests over 3 days. Staff eventually gave us the supply closet passcode so we could restock the basics. Both coffee makers were dirty and broken; had to asked a friend to bring a coffee pot, and the host eventually shipped one via Amazon. The lake dock was unreachable. Our late checkout request was denied. The AC switched to heat hourly overnight...in Texas. We'd expected the basics in place for this price. Wouldn't recommend.”

“This place was beautiful! The private dock to the river was where we spent most of our time, but the living rooms were also spacious, giving us plenty of space to play card games when the evening came!”

“My group and I enjoyed our stay overall — it’s a great Airbnb right on the water with a lot of potential. The main downside was that the hot tub wasn’t functioning properly during our stay, and we also couldn’t adjust the temperature in the home because it was controlled remotely. We brought both issues to the host’s attention, but unfortunately they were never resolved and communication became unresponsive. Additionally, parts of the exterior of the home, especially the balcony area and lounge chairs, were noticeably worn down or broken. Despite those issues, we still had a good time overall.”

“Very nice and spacious and plenty of room to sleep and game room has a lot to do.”

“This place was perfect for our family gathering! We had plenty of room and highly entertained with the game room and pool. We truly enjoyed our stay!!”
