Peaceful, relaxing, and very elegant

We came right before Thanksgiving. It was my wife and I my mother-in-law and small puppy in this house was perfect. My mother-in-law and wife was very, very impressed. It probably takes 2 1/2 minutes to get to town very easy drive We will definitely come back to this Vrbo property. The communication via email was perfect again thank you and we highly recommend.

Wonderful Weekend in Wimberley

This beautiful house sits right on the Blanco River. It is clean and equipped with everything you need. The view from the porch overlooking the river is so peaceful and beautiful. The town is literally a quick car ride across the bridge. Wimberley is the cutest place ever! It was decorated for Fall and Halloween and looked so festive. There are lots of shops and restaurants in the town square. All walkable after parking your car. Thank you for a wonderful girls weekend! We will be back.

Great house & Great location

We had a wonderful stay. Experienced really bad storm and weather one of the nights. Great location close to town. The linens on the beds had me looking on the tags so I could buy them. Everything was wonderful. Great communication and responsive management. Would definitely love to stay her again. Thank you!!!

Beautiful property on the river

We booked this property for parents weekend at TXST because we wanted to take advantage of being so close to Wimberly and still have a short drive to San Marcos. Very convenient to everything. The home was beautiful and had everything we needed. Love the view from the porch and the swing downstairs. Communication with owner was great and we really appreciated the dinner recommendation as it was fabulous as well!

Great location

Perfect house for our girls weekend! Close to town and restaurants. We had a lovely time. Our only disappointment was that we were hoping for a few relaxing evenings in the hot tub. Listing mentioned it was a 4 seater and it was only a 2 seater. Other then that no complaints! Well decorated and clean!

❤️ Wimberley ❤️

This is a gorgeous house! So spacious and well-appointed. Everything is extra clean and luxurious. We were Wimberley first-timers and absolutely fell in love. Quick drive to tubing in San Marcos and close to Austin. Lots to do in Wimberley (Blue Hole, Pioneer Town) and the downtown shops are adorable. This house is minutes away and the River access is perfect!

Great location and nice house!

Riverfront location was perfect - both shallow and “deep” (4-5 feet) waters that our 7 year old son loved! Rock stairs allowed easy river access. The house is just far enough from downtown (very short drive) to feel secluded and relaxing. The furnishings in the home were super comfy - especially the beds and bedding!!! The kitchen had everything we needed and the bathrooms were very clean with recently renovated showers. We really enjoyed grilling and relaxing on the balcony overlooking the river! A very nice home with extremely helpful and friendly owner/manager. Highly recommend!
