Our family enjoyed our relaxed weekend in Wimberly, we swam and sat outside and enjoyed the quiet. We had everything we needed, and our boys loved all the toys and sports to keep them busy! Wendy was a great host and was available for any questions we had. My boys asked when we could come back!

Perfect spot for a glamping experience. So much for entire family to do. Host was very kind and accommodating. Reading reviews was helpful for expectations. Would definitely go back.

I would not recommend this for a family, Maybe this cabin can be a good use for 2 people. In the review of the cabin it clearly stated that the cabin had 2 bedrooms wich was false. In my opinion there is no privacy to do anything with the owner being present at the property staying less then 100 feet away. We decided to not stay at the property and we had to spend more money to rent a hotel for the night, and the next day we had to spend 1,500$ to rent another cabin for the next 2 days. By the way I have been going and renting cabins ever since 2015 about 2 or 3 times each year and I never had to write a bad review for any so it really upsets me that I have to write this bad review wich I hate writing.

Paul’s barn has a lot of character. Very quaint and unique. We enjoyed floating, kayaking and rope jumping in the river. Smokey our dog will not go out of the water. Wendy is very attentive even tho she’s not around but she made sure that our stay is comfortable and enjoyable. We have a little glitch on the AC system but she immediately addressed it. definitely will recommend!

We did not have a good luck with weather, but the place is wonderful and has a lot to offer. It’s cute, with access to Cypress Creek to kayaking. The town is just a couple minutes away where you can visit the Blue Hole, shop around and dine at several great places. We loved it, and plan to visit soon again.

TX Hill Country Getaway
We really enjoyed the property as a family of 4. The simple kitchen gave us a great excuse to skip the complex grocery trip and check out the restaurants on the creek right down the road which were great. Also gave us more time to play board games, hike the blue hole trails, sit by the fire and enjoy the river. My 14 yr old and 18 yr old must’ve played on the zip line 100 times and almost taught our lab to fetch it and bring it up hill. If you visit don’t expect a 5 star full service cabin. This is a secondary barn/studio to the main house so it’s all about it’s unique rustic character and all about the creek front location. As described it’s more like glamping so tap into your adventurous side and go enjoy it. Highly recommend. Thanks for sharing your place with us. We’ll be back.

A Great Girls/Birthday Weekend
It was everything we hoped for - fun, cute, perfectly situated for the wineries and Wimberly. Wendy and her family were excellent hosts. We're definitely coming back again!
5.0
We absolutely loved staying in Paul's barn. We were looking for a comfortable experience that would connect us with the outdoors. We wanted to escape air conditioning and automobiles, and we wanted to be able to swim to our heart's content--but we didn't want to rough it. Wendy's property hit all the marks--it is like glamping--you're open to the elements--but with the tree canopy completely covering the barn and the swimming hole, the heat isn't too bad (and we were there on days when the high was near 100). At night, you can close the doors and leave the screened-in windows open for a nice breeze & protection from mosquitos. The beds are super comfortable, and Wendy has really thought of every amenity--fire pit, bbq, efficiency kitchen, beautiful outdoor shower, a dozen fans, every game you can think of (even a zip line). We spent hours swimming in the creek, and dashed up to Wimberley for drinks in the evening. The town is 3 minutes up the road, there's a giant supermarket open till 11. Wendy was wonderful to deal with, very welcoming, as were her husband and son. We can't wait to go back!

Fun Girls Getaway
We were looking for a little escape and this property fit our needs perfectly! Wendy was a great host and very helpful with restaurant suggestions. We lucked out with perfect weather and enjoyed sitting on the patio and by the fire pit at night. Next time we'll bring the kids!

Fun on the creek
We had a wonderful stay in this rustic barn/ house. The owner was welcoming, the accommodations were unique and fun. It's perfect if you enjoy the outdoors and games. If you are looking for posh this is not right for you. We were attending a wedding so getting ready was a challenge with the small bathroom but the location, amenities, whimsy of the barn and the welcoming attitude of the owners made it a wonderful and memorable weekend. We would happily stay again.

Amazing
Such a cool property. Wimberley is a special place but this barn on the Cypress Creek is awesome. Couldn't keep my son off the rope swing. And the open doors and patio lights create a gorgeous setting. Owner was fantastic with communication. Will go again for sure!

What a beautiful spot with plenty to offer for all. The kids loved the many outdoor activities available while the adults loved being so close to Wimberley’s shops & restaurants. Not to mention, Wendy was super responsive when needed

A perfect combo of indoor and outdoor living
I ❤️ the Texas Hill Country, and This rental is nestled right in the middle of it!
It's a perfect spot for folks looking to enjoy the best example of natural beauty Texas has to offer, but prefer plumbing 🚽 and proper mattresses!
Wendy is super nice; you couldn't ask for a better host. 😍
We spent our time relaxing by the lovely creek that's right in the back yard and getting competitive over foosball and pop-a-shot 🏀.
After dinner at the Leaning Pear 🍐 (highly recommend!), we relaxed on the sofa with all the doors and windows open while sipping Texas beers and binging YouTube shows.
Anyone looking for a quintessential Texas experience (and you can trust me -- I'm from Texas), should book this property!

They were home and invited guests over while we’re trying to use the amenities: my young daughter felt uncomfortable in her bathing suit being around strangers and the shower is outside, weird they would not understand my concern: electric went out and they went to bed: she told me she doesn’t have to have an electrician on call and she can invite whomever she wants over whenever she wants: if you are triggered by no locks on doors, showering in front of people and strangers right next door, then a great place to stay

Fun at the creek
We had a great time at this property. Pictures do not do it justice. Kids loved the creek and all the amenities. Zip line was a favorite as well as the rope swing. I would caution anyone listening to music. The sound does carry and appears louder to neighbors than it seems. Overall the kids made great memories.

We had an awesome time! There was plenty to do for everyone in the family right there at the barn, but was also very close to restaurants, shopping, and the Blue Hole Park. Great for all ages! The water was the perfect depth and the waterfall at the dam was an exciting element.
We were a little surprised how close it was to a house- we thought it would be a little more secluded but we didn’t seem to be in anyone’s way. It just made taking turns to change in the bathroom a little longer when we were ready to swim or hit the sack.
We would definitely be interested in staying here again!

Lovely place to stay on cypress creek
We loved our stay in Paul’s Barn. Highly recommend for a short stay with kids or a peaceful stay for a single or a couple (probably kids 6+ as there is a very steep spiral staircase). Note (as described in the listing) this is a converted barn that is not air conditioned or closed to the outside, we had great weather and were not hot or cold at all. Also, cooking facilities are a grill, a microwave, and coffee maker so plan accordingly (again, as listed in the description). Tons of games and activities around the property including direct access to a really great swimming hole with shallow parts for non swimmers, rope swings, and beautiful trees.
