"Absolutely beautiful! Ed is an amazing host and a wonderful conversationalist; we enjoyed the dinner very much. All the food was exquisitely prepared and the Rubicon representative entertainingly informative. Elise looks great and she is full of smiles for her guests. The best part is their location, being in Boerne was the perfect getaway for us at this time of year. It is decorated up and down Main Street and just oozing with small town charm. We went for a run the next morning around the river and through the shops, peering through windows so I knew which ones to return to. Grabbed a coffee and strolled back to the Inn. Loved our room upstairs, it had a relaxing view above the bed into the trees and rolling hills. We checked out happily carrying our boxes of wines and visited some local stores before we hit the road back to Corpus."
~ Danielle McCracken

"Staff - very accommodating and friendly", "GREAT staff, great food and atmosphere", "Hotel service was great", "Great hospitality - Thank you" "Excellent service", "Will bring my family back" (and all the participants were from out-of-state) As for the food - well, our scores range from 1 - 10 (this is the best) Food got 120 - and with 12 guests that means everyone of them gave the chef and staff a whooping 10 -TEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   And Lawson, Byrd, Frank and I echo that. On my part thanks to Tammy in the beginning for connecting us and setting us up with Ye Kendall Inn.  And I hope I don't forget anyone, but so many of you were so wonderful - Juan, Ruby, Liz, Hank, Mia, Matt, our sweet breakfast server whose name escapes me, Wilson, housekeeping and last but certainly not least is you Taylor for all you did to make the week-our first week at YKI - run so incredibly smoothly.  Thank you to all concerned."

"May I take this opportunity to say how much we enjoyed our "experience" at Ye Kendall Inn.  The food was excellent and the staff took care of our every need.  It was a wonderful evening. I received lots of compliments, but I must say "You did it!". Thank you and we'll have to return sometime in the future. Warm Regards"
~ M. Wood JL Companies July 2009

"We couldn’t have been happier with Saturday evening.  The staff was great and the food excellent.  Thank you so much for all you did to make this one great reunion, but again, thanks for everything... everyone had a fabulous time and we’ve received nothing but compliments. Thanks"
~ Will Raybourn – BHS Class of ’89 Reunion July 2009

"We left in such a hurry after our meeting that I failed to thank Mia and the staff that helped us during the luncheon.  Everyone did a great job, and we appreciate the "upbeat" and courteous attitude they had towards everyone in our family." 
~ D.G. Family Meeting, July 2009

"Just wanted to touch base ... and tell you how pleased we were with everything.  You all are great there.  We had two great people that took care of us... Mia and I didn’t get the gentleman’s name, but they both were great.  Our lunches were great and the "make your own sundae" was fantastic.  We had the best day there yesterday.  I also heard glowing reports from Dr. Cavazos, who spent the evening there.  He was telling about the "band" that came and entertained in the evening, and all the grandparents w/their grandchildren.  He really enjoyed himself. Thanks again for making our retreat so special."
~ Rhonda Dietrich ~ UT Health Science Center, San Antonio. July 2009

"Thank you again for the outstanding work and service you and your staff provided for our World Missions luncheon on Friday.  Having planned and executed numerous such events through the years, I was tremendously impressed with the attention to detail that seems to be a characteristic of working with your group.  Nothing was overlooked from setups to furniture placement, even to A/V equipment (despite the poor performance of my computer).  I had numerous comments regarding the attention given by servers (such as "My tea glass was never empty," "Service was quick and quiet," "The people were so nice," etc.).  The food was delicious, and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. I hope you will commend your staff who were responsive to all our needs.  We were extremely pleased. Best regards with gratitude."
~ Marthe D. Curry, Ph.D. June 2009

"All, I spoke with Mr. & Mrs. Miller from the Miller/Parkey wedding on 5/2, and they were very thrilled with everything. They especially raved about the food and ambience, and said that all of our staff was fantastic. They said they had many guests from New York and Colorado, and they all loved the charm of the Inn, and thought that this place was fantastic, and they were very happy with everything." "Thank you so much for working with me so well and so kindly. The wedding was absolutely wonderful, it could not have worked out any better and Taylor, we have you to thank for such a fun reception. Sincerely,"
~ Stan ~ January 2009 Wedding

  "Thank you so much! The meeting was a HUGE success. I am so grateful for all your coordination."
~ American Cancer Society, January 2009

"Dear Taylor and Staff: Oh where do I begin? What an enchanting evening Saturday night was! My parent’s 50th wedding anniversary party was a huge success! That is largely in part to you Taylor, your chefs & your wonderful staff! The room worked out beautifully, the food was scrumptious and your staff was friendly, efficient and very attentive. They all deserve a big pat on the back! I heard lots of compliments on the food! Taylor I really appreciate your attention to detail on the menu, it was a great spread and made a beautiful plate! Everyone was comfortable and relaxed and really enjoyed themselves. I am STILL receiving emails on what a fantastic time they had and what a great party it was! So thank you, thank you, thank you!!"
~ Jimi Driskill ~ January 2009

"Taylor, Our family reunion weekend was so far above our expectations that we are all still flying. From the moment we arrived until the time we departed, (and NO ONE wanted to leave), we were treated like family by every staff member there. Your personal service to help coordinate, plan and execute the weekend never went unnoticed. I have planned many reunions and have yet to have one be so easy from my end, and that is strictly due to your hard work and dedication.
The courtyard was absolutely the perfect spot for our chili cookoff and there wasn't one family member who didn't comment on how perfect the setting was for our group. Mark and Ray were amazing! Mark helped me unload my car and refused to accept my husband's tip. He made sure everything we wanted or needed was there and even offered to take some of our dirty chili pots into the kitchen to be washed, which was such a thoughtful and kind offer. He is definitely one of your stars and obviously loves his job which shows in the way he treats your guests. Ray was always alert to our needs, always smiling, and made sure no one was in need of anything. He was super quick to pick up our plates when we were done and was an outstanding manager. You are very lucky to have such devoted employees!
The food...all I can say is WOW! It was superb! The chef came out to help with the chili judging so we were lucky enough to be able to talk to him for a while and he was wonderful. But the food was phenomenal!!!
The rooms were so above what we are used to having that we felt as though we were royalty. The details in the room were wonderful and the beds were comfortable. I have not one complaint regarding the appointment of the rooms.
The gathering room was absolutely perfect for our family! It was the place we went to cool off, the place the older group gathered to talk, the auction room, the dining room and a game room. It was the perfect size, the perfect room, the perfect place!
Taylor, I can not thank you enough for all you did to make this year's reunion a shining star. It made me look good and YOU did all the work! I am not in charge of the reunion for 2011, but it's my understanding that the two who volunteered will be contacting you to discuss setting up a weekend for next year's reunion. Yes! We loved it enough that many family members commented that we need to make Ye Kendall Inn our permanent family reunion spot.
I appreciate YOU and your staff more than you will ever know! And I anxiously await our return next year."
~ Susan, Kennedy Family Reunion
