Grape Creek Ranch Bed & Breakfast

I wish I had read these reviews before we stayed here for Valentine’s weekend. We stayed in the Fig Cabin. It was totally unacceptable for the money that my sweetheart paid. There were no pictures on the walls, there were holes in the walls and the dishes were put in the cabinet dirty. The cabin door was unlocked, the wifi wasn’t working and neither was the TV. There was no clock, no radio nothing. We did enjoy the hot tub on the last night we were there. It took that long (2 days) for the thing to heat up enough to be able to get in it. The carpet in the «loft» was dirty with animal urine and feces stains and it had not been vacuumed or cleaned and there was a pile of ‘saw dust’ from where carpenter ants had burrowed their way in to the ceiling and left their mound on the floor. It made my skin crawl. When i reported this to the facility they did offer us a 10% discount and said if we had called about the TV they would have come and fixed it and apologized for the condition of the cabin they were ‘upgrading’ it and didn’t think that having no pictures on the walls was a big deal. Their excuse for the dirty dishes in the cabinet was that the housekeeper simply made a mistake during the renovation and overlooked them… HA! Needless to say, we will not stay here again and we will NOT recommend this place to anyone that we know. It’s a shame that they share a similar name with the beautiful winery next door. Because even though it is mentioned on their website that they are no way associated with the winery, it sure gives them a bad association until you go back and read it again. I missed it when we first made the reservations. I won’t make this mistake again.

Upon check in at Grape Creek Ranch we found mice feces on the window sill behind sink, on the kitchen sponge and in the dish rack. The manager, Lindsey, said it’s hard for them to «keep the mice out» and we asked her if she had mice traps. She did not offer to clean it up but brought us a new dish rack from a different cabin.
We were waiting for these activities listed on their website but they were not available. Someone had just come to light a bonfire and then left. Nothing else below was available.
* Kids Nature Activities: Once a day, there will be nature activities for the kids, such as; collecting creek pebbles and painting them, making collages from fallen leaves, and learning to spot deer tracks by making hoof print plasters.
* Bonfire with S’mores — On weekends and Holidays, Grape Creek Ranch guests can enjoy a bonfire and delicious s’mores under the grand Texas Hill Country stars.
* Petting Zoo: Kids and adults alike can enjoy a small animal petting zoo.
* Guests are welcome every morning to help us feed the Horses, the Lamas, the bunnies and chickens and collect eggs.
Upon leaving in the morning, we found mouse feces all over the kitchen utensil drawer (and we had used those utensils), next to the downstairs bed on the window sill, and in all the bottom cabinets of kitchen. We pulled the mini fridge outside to defrost the freezer for the future guests (it was so filled with ice you couldn’t put anything in it) and there was feces behind there too.
There were dead bugs on all the windowsills and the wifi was not working. The manager had told me there was supposed to be a note in the house about the wifi not working but we didn’t see anything.
We asked Linsey for a refund but she said they could not give a refund. She said they could give us a free night or 50% off at a B&B that she personally owned. Overall, we would never recommend this place to anyone!
