We have stayed at some great places near the Frio. This one fell a little flat. The house is beautiful and the beds are great. The problem is no basics are available so you need to bring them or buy them. There was no broom and dustpan. How can you clean up little things with no broom? The stove is old and doesn’t work great so if you are cooking for more than 4 you need to adjust. The pans are random and basic kitchen tools are few so you may want to bring your own. No sponge or scrubber for the dishes or even dish soap. NO TOWELS! No hand towels in the bathroom or kitchen so bring those too.

I’m thankful that any fridge that I put contents in is clean …. Yes it may not be at correct temp for a while, but use common sense. All beverages go on ice in coolers & cold food in the fridge …. This is basic!
I would DEFINITELY recommend this lodge to any group! Five stars …....

The kitchen was stocked with all the pots and pans you’d need to make a big breakfast to start your day, and all the beds were so comfy. Everything was clean and in great condition.We really enjoyed our stay and can’t...
