Anybody have experience with them? We're doing a bar at the pond house and are thinking the fake stacked rock would look good on the front and sides. Any tips or warnings?
 
All rock and brick skins on houses hide termites. They also are not treated properly 9 times out of 10. To treat these types of homes you have to drill holes in it below grade and inject it in. Hence why you see so much damage with these types of skins. The termites also go unnoticed for a long time giving them lots of time to do their magic.

OP. That stone works good and installs like tile. If you have ever done tile you can do it and it will look good. The irregular surface helps hide imperfections. You have a little more waste due to the size and shape than most types of tile. And you can't really use the drops. I think they make outside corner pieces if I'm not mistaken.
