Come experience Johnson City at Lone Star Lokal! Small town Texas living at its finest!

Perfect for the eclipse
We stayed for 5 nights for the eclipse in April and the house was perfect for us. Easy check-in, close to downtown (walking distance) and plenty of parking. The whole house was so clean and the furnishings were lovely, plenty of room for all of us. The kitchen had great china and all the equipment we needed to cook meals, which were wonderful outdoor in the courtyard. We loved our stay -- thank you!

Great location, nice outdoor area
We loved our stay in Johnson City. Great location, close to many wineries, breweries, and restaurants. We split time between Fredericksburg and Dripping Springs areas, and Johnson City was a great home base. The owners are very responsive to any needs that may arise and provide lots of good info about the area. The backyard area is a great place to unwind for the night.

Great Home!
This is a really cute and comfortable home. The Biergarten is wonderful and the interiors really well furnished. it has comfy beds and well stocked kitchen. We cooked Thanksgiving dinner here and had everything we needed. The host is highly responsive and we liked the digital guide provided. A great stay was had by all. Highly recommend!! Only regret is we aren’t staying in Johnson City this weekend for the market. The home is just a couple of blocks from the courtyard. Perfect location!!

We loved how each room has a king sized bed, sound machine, and we’re spacious. Everything was so comfortable - the beds, bedding, towels, seating. It was perfect for a quick getaway.

Could not have asked for more!
What a great spot! Everything was comfortable and clean, and you could tell that the host put a lot of thought and intentionality into the furnishings and amenities. The house had everything we needed. The outdoor space was dreamy with the TV, lights, fire pit and seating. We’d come again just for that. Location was perfect for us — really close to the square and downtown area with shops, restaurants, and tasting rooms. Johnson City is such a cute, little town! Elizabeth was communicative and her recommendations helped us find some great local spots to eat. Would definitely stay here again next time we’re looking to get away.

We loved our stay in Johnson City. It was convenient and relaxing. Everything was wonderful (beds, parking, bathrooms, outdoor patio, everything) and the glass rinser by the kitchen sink was a special touch. :-)
