I spent a couple of nights at the Walden Plantation and...let me just say I was sadly disappointed in the appearance property. Although the actual room was in great condition...the grounds left much to be desired. Definitely misleading on their website. Many dead plants, including two towering dead palm trees greet you. Then nearly all flower pots were empty, contained... More

We were pleased when we arrived at night. The ambiance around the patio was good. Our room was nice, temp was good and bed was comfy. The sheets smelled clean. Breakfast was good. The downside of the stay was that the location is out in the middle of no where, the landscape is not maintained, dead plants in pots throughout,... More

I chanced to see the Walden Plantation on Expedia when I was booking a business trip and needed a place to stay for two nights. I opted to stay here and see the countryside, rather than pay the same price and stay at yet another chain hotel where I knew exactly what to expect. Never having stayed in a B&B,... More

My husband and I spent a night here in November for our anniversary. This was our first time staying at a B&B, so we really didn't know what to expect. It is in the middle of nowhere & it was very quiet and peaceful. The room was a good size and very clean. There are no elevators, only metal stairs.... More

My husband and I found this hidden gem and went for a night. Where to begin... First of all, we had wanted to arrive early even though check in is at 3pm and Minerva made it a point to have the room ready beforehand. When we arrived we were sent to our very clean room. Apparently the Plantation was booked... More

Finding Walden Plantation is a challenge worth accepting. It is hidden in the Hill Country brush well off the beaten path. Like most who live "out there," Walden tends to be self-sufficient: translation, sometimes things break down, but that's part of the charm. We were out of water for a short time while the pump was repaired, but it wasn't... More

This "retreat" is 11 miles west of Llano. It was a destination 3 day mini vacation for us. The owner's were very pleasant and helpful. The room was extremely nice, with newer furnishings, quiet, clean and very comfortable. We stayed on the 2nd floor and in order to get to your room you had to climb metal stairs. No elevator....

This is just a unique place and Minerva made this stay even more special. Her very outgoing and friendly way made us "feel at home" right away. We loved our room, it was very clean and comfortable. The pool was so nice and if we ever come back, we will definitely stay longer. It is the perfect place to relax... More

The web site made this place sound wonderful and we were really looking forward to a romantic week-end away. We managed to have a good time in spite of the Walden Plantation but if we could have gotten our money back after that first night and gone somewhere else we would have! Where to start? I have stayed at numerous... More
