Our group of high school friends (from the '70's) voted the Messy Mule retreat as the best we have stayed at for our annual get together! The beds were very comfortable, linens and towels so soft! Well stocked kitchen with nice dishes and every amenity available. Wish we could have stayed longer and enjoyed the firepit, but time was limited. Very convenient to so many activities in the area. We would definitely book again for our girls weekend. Thank you for sharing your home!
Wonderful stay! The host was very helpful and quick to respond to any questions. The property was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. Everything about our stay was smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommend!
Love, love, love this property. So peaceful and beautiful.

Pleasantly Peaceful Place
This place was above expectations! The pictures dont do it justice just because of the peace you feel when you are there. Highly recommended! Was able to relax even while I was there for my daughter’s wedding ! Slept amazing !!
Beautiful home place in a beautiful setting. Tons of charm & updates to the home were perfect. We would definitely stay here again. Very close to town & not too far from La Grange & Round Top. The host was personable and very helpful. (I already miss my heifer friends.)
Simply the best VBRO experience I have had. The house was a beautiful home and the host couldn’t have been more welcoming. It was such a great place for our girls trip. Anyone who wants to get away from city life and still experience the comforts of home should consider staying here.
We had a wonderful time at the Messy Mule. It was even better than the photos. It was beautifully decorated and pristine. The kitchen was well equipped and the beds were comfortable. Best of all was the peaceful setting. We relaxed in the rockers out front and on the deck. 5 stars for sure.
Stayed for two nights with family of four. The house is very clean and well stocked. Great location in Schulenburg to be within short driving distance from the Painted Churches Splashway waterpark, Shiner Brewery.
Absolutely perfect home in a beautiful, country setting. I will return.

Wedding Weekend
We had a terrific weekend. The house is brand new & sparkling clean with the fresh fragrance of aeromantic soaps & candles. Our local hostess laid out a nice welcome tray of cheese, sausage & crackers, along with a bottle of wine to greet us ! Comfy beds & soft towels. Would definitely stay there again !

Beautiful home
Loved our stay! Home was very comfy and was fully stocked! The home was decorated for Christmas with a Christmas tree and hints of the holiday season throughout. The lighting was amazing in every room. HVAC unit was quiet and very efficient. The outdoor spaces are great to hang out with family and fiends of all ages. The property manager was very responsive and worked to help us check in early so we could get ready for a rehearsal dinner. We plan to visit this property again in the future.
