Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    beautiful house from Alsace , France rebuilt in Castroville. Nice museum inside & the lady working there told us how the house was rebuilt & also the history of the old grandfather clock.

    A friendly and polite young lady in the office opened up the pool area so we could use the restroom. We took a short walk and saw lots of deer. We'd love to come back in warmer weather.

    Amazing experience! Learning about the history of settlers leaving behind their life and moving west and coming through this area gave me a new perspective on life. I can’t to come back and learn even more about this area and the site itself.

    This historic church is beautiful from the outside but you must go inside to appreciate how truly beautiful it is.

    We were intrigued by the promotional materials touting Castroville as being a city reflective of Alsatian culture, as well as its proximity to the Hill Country and San Antonio. We were not disappointed. While we learned of certain walking tours of the historic homes, the extremely hot weather prevented our participation.
    We stayed at the Hillside Hotel, which overlooks the city and features large rooms appointed with period-style furniture. We were unable to sample the food at the restaurant, but the menu seemed very interesting. On the way out of town, we stopped at Haby’s Alsatian Bakery. Even though it was mid- morning, the place was very busy. The display counter was easily 30’ long and packed with pastries. Our selections were all very good - our only regret was having to choose only a very small sample size.

    What a great selection! The fresh meats looked wonderful, and the jerky, sausages, jellies, candies and more made perfect take home gifts. Next time I'll bring a cooler. And the staff was friendly and helpful, so we will definitely stop again.

    We throughly enjoyed our time at Medina River Winery. Matt and Ken were both friendly and very knowledgeable about their wines, which is exactly what you want at a winery. The wine was delicious. And Matt went above and beyond to make us comfortable. We hope to return some day.

    Looking for a one of a kind items this is the place to shop. truly hand made items priced to sell. Home grown can goods dill pickles, pickled okra, and sauerkraut and hot sauces. Items made from feed bags turn into messenger bags, beach bag, garment bag and totes. Wreath for all seasons and American doll cloths for any event. its a must shop store.
