    Wish there had been a table in the room. It was uncomfortable playing cards on the bed.

    Good location. Plenty of room.

    Found it a bit pricey for a motel, but given that it was Memorial Day weekend and we booked for one night only, it was okay.

    The location 1 block from Main Street and within walking distance from 11th St Cowboy Bar, Silver Dollar and OST Restaurant was excellent. If there is music at the nearby open-air Cowboy Bar it might be a bother if you go to sleep early, but we came home after midnight and did not hear anything.

    the bed was really high, at 5'6" it was a bit of an effort to get in and out of the bed. Also, definitely a "dip" in the middle, in our room and our friends as well.

    The cabins are great! charming inside and out. There is a courtyard with group firepits, cornhole, horseshoes, roping "steer" and BBQ. We enjoyed the corn they gave us to feed the geese, ducks and deer... They wandered in and through the courtyard on several occasions during the day. great for sitting outside on your porch, with your individual fire pit and chairs. Close to downtown and bars, easy to walk to all.

    We truly enjoyed our stay at the Vaquero. We had visits from ducks, birds and deer. Very nice!

    We have a motorcycle and the loose gravel is a little treacherous for these vehicles. The bed was a little too soft and quite high above the floor. Maybe a new firm mattress with bunkie boards instead of the box spring would be more accessible and comfortable.

    We loved the cabin and the location to downtown Bandera. The staff was friendly.

    The only complaint we have and that’s. our personal preference, we found the mattress too soft but other than that all facilities was great.

    After traveling around Texas this was our last stop before going to Houston to fly home and we loved how chilled out the place is to relax and unwind and then it’s close to the town aswell. Great shower and a spacious room size.

    The mattress on the full bed was very soft, but was also thin. A thicker mattress would have been nice.

    The cabin was just what we expected and need! I loved the shampoo and hand soap provided. It was all very neat and clean. And even though we didn't use it, the fire pit and chairs outside were a nice touch!

    2 separate bedrooms!

    The stay was great! A little misleading when stated “a Suite” I think of a suite as 2 separate bedrooms and a common area! The queen bed was in the common area there was one separate bedroom! Nice touch with the fire pit! Staff super friendly! Will return someday!

    If you visit Bandera, this is the place to stay. Super clean, beds are nice, when we arrived we got a fire starter, corn for the animals (to feed the ducks) & a s'mores package. Loved it! Tracy is the nicest person and will give you the best tips.
