A budget-friendly vacation rental shouldn't mean compromising luxury and quality, and the Artesia Hilltop Cabin shows how it's done! This delightful cabin in the heart of the Hill Country is the perfect spot for a romantic weekend. It's remote and private, in a scenic natural setting, yet it's only ten miles from the night life and shopping of downtown Kerrville. It's loaded with comfortable amenities and down-home Texas charm, proving a fantastic vacation doesn't need to be a wallet-buster.

Very cozy cabin on hill. On the rustic side but great and everything needed
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Oct 2025
Very beautiful view with a Texas coziness. Tom and Kathy were very gracious. It got super dark, so I'm glad we brought flashlights. The incinerating toilet was a first, but only added to the adventure.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Jun 2025
I booked this cabin to stay in as I attended my nephew’s wedding. The inside of the cabin was very nice. A western motive fit well with a hillside cabin. Unfortunately,, that is the only thing that I can say that was positive about the experience. When asking about the cabin and access to it, I was told that I would be able to drive up right to the cabin. I believe that can be done IF you have a truck or a jeep! I was able to get it up once but it was very treacherous and scary since I was worried that I may be damaging my engine or my tires getting up there! I was told that I could park my car in the driveway since the other cabin wasn’t being used that weekend. Not being able to drive my car up to the cabin, was very inconvenient since I was going back-and-forth from the cabin doing things to help with my nephew‘s wedding! I ended up parking on the driveway and walking up to the cabin every time I left, I would’ve liked to have known ahead of time that it was going to not be accessible so I could have made other arrangements. The grass in the area was very overgrown and needed cutting. The description of the “kitchenette” was also a little misleading. The description said there was a toaster oven available, it was not which again was inconvenient as I brought food that we could cook in it. The toilet was very intimidating and took a bit of time to get used to!I wish the stay would have been more enjoyable! Maybe with a little work it can for the next person!
