This fee helps us run our platform and 24/7 support.

Check in is 4pm or later. Please do not show up early (unless authorized by Vacay Hill Country) to avoid added fees. An early 2pm check-in may be available for an additional $25. If interested please text or email us 2 days prior to your arrival so we can check our housekeeping schedule. Please understand that there is no guarantee that our schedule will accommodate your early check in request.

Guests much check out on their final day by 10am or earlier. Unapproved late check outs can result in extra charges to the guest.

You can head directly to your property to self-check in. For most properties, Vacay Hill Country utilizes a convenient keypad lock system that allows you to enter your rental using a personalized access code, as opposed to having to pick up a key and worrying about keeping track of it during your stay and returning it afterward. This also saves you the trouble of going to a check-in center beforehand. Our staff is always only a phone call/text/email away if questions arise. Call or text 830.730.5921
