Perfect home for large families!

This home is fabulous! In lieu of gifts for Christmas’24, we decided to do a family trip, and this property suited the needs of our 17 member family quite nicely. It was clean, but a really deep clean is due soon. (Light fixtures, blinds, under furniture, etc…) Also, the sectional in the living room needs replaced. It has been very “well loved” and isn’t worthy of this magnificent home. We loved the layout of the house, the extra space in the game room, and of course, the view that all the reviews raved about! It was a little too chilly to swim, but that didn’t stop several family members from doing a “polar plunge” and then a nice soak in the large hot tub. The kitchen was VERY well stocked as far as small appliances, cookware, and utensils. We had everything we needed. A couple of things that you need to bring because they aren’t provided are kleenex and dryer sheets or fabric softener, The only other negative we would have is that the bathroom attached to the room next to the Master had a problem with the toilet. The first night, we heard the toilet “run” every 4 1/2 minutes. We solved it the next night by just turning the valve off at bedtime and back on in the morning. All in all, this beautiful home is highly recommended by our family, & while it’s beginning to show its age just a bit, we would absolutely stay here again! One other plus- Shiloh did a wonderful job with communication! We appreciated it so much!

Amazing Property with Tons of Room and Amenities

We had an incredible stay at this spacious property in Wimberley! The house has plenty of rooms, beds, and bathrooms, making it perfect for large groups or families. The fully stocked kitchen made it easy for us to cook meals, and the outdoor area was a true highlight with a pool, grill, and stunning views of the surrounding landscape. The gameroom was a big hit with everyone—tons of games to choose from, a shuffleboard table, poker table, and even a gym and theater setup! We also loved the built-in speakers throughout the house, allowing us to play music wherever we were. On top of all that, the location was fantastic—just a short drive from amazing restaurants and shopping. This place truly has it all for a perfect getaway. Highly recommend!

Peaceful and Relaxing

This is a beautiful place great for large groups. The deer came out each morning and evening. We enjoyed lots of porch time and the outdoor kitchen was great for grilling. It is very secluded and a little hard to find especially at night. Overall we had an amazing time and made lots of memories.

Great Place for our Annual Family Weekend

This property was an awesome choice for our yearly multi generation family getaway. We had 6 adults and 5 active boys ages 5-13 for a 3 night stay. The swimming pool, game room, media room, workout room, disc golf and pool table were enjoyed by all. The one story home layout with numerous bedrooms and bathrooms was great. We also loved the large dining table for family meals and card games. The well appointed large kitchen made for easy meal preparation. When needed, communicating with the property manager was prompt and helpful. Great family memories were made at Rim Rock Ranch and we hope to stay again sometime.

Gorgeous House

Rim Rock is a gorgeous house that is well built for a group holiday like ours. We were able to celebrate my mom's 70th birthday in this gorgeous property and space. We enjoyed the beautiful pool, hot tub, sauna, and game room particularly. The view is unforgettable. One of the bushes in the front yard had hummingbirds each morning. It is also convenient to Wimberley and San Marcos. Only items that were not five stars were the cleanliness of the pool and hot tub, both had some debris at the bottom (there were a lot of storms/rain). We also had some navigation issues (not hosts fault but something to think about) with both Google Maps and Waze unnecessarily directing us through an unwelcoming neighborhood nearby. Overall would happily visit again!

Our favorite house yet!

Every year we go on a family vacation which includes 18 people total. It can be challenging to find lodging to accommodate everyone in one house but this place was perfect! The house is huge and all of the bedrooms and bathrooms were great. Everyone spent most of the time in the wonderful pool to cool down from the crazy Texas heat. We loved the open kitchen so everyone could hang out around it while cooking. The game room was a huge hit with the kiddos. Communication on the check-in process was super simple. We would definitely book this property again.

Amazing!

This was the perfect home and setup for our party of 16 to celebrate my husband’s 50th. When first walking up to the front doors, the view through the back doors was breathtaking - I had no idea based on the pictures just how amazing the view would be. The home is spacious, the bedrooms and bathrooms have a great layout (amazing showers with multiple shower heads), and lots of space outdoors. We enjoyed coffee on the outdoor patio each morning, followed by some ping pong competitions, sports watching in the theater room, and card games at the large picnic table. We utilized the indoor and outdoor kitchen, which is well equipped with everything you would need. Our adult children enjoyed the hot tub and sauna, while a few of us dipped our feet in the pool - only one was brave enough to get in (just a bit chilly this time of year which was expected). The only downside was having to leave!

About the host

Hosted by Shiloh Collins

Host profile image
Peggy and Phil Collins bought this land in 2008 and starting building in about September of that year. We finished the house in March of 2009 and then spent about 6 months completing all of the outdoor living projects. The house was Built by Bill Dunn Construction and the house was built to the highest quality standards that you can imagine. We feel that we have really created something special and are sure that you will feel the same way that we do. This is our third vacation property in the Wimberley/San Marcos area and we are really excited about what we have accomplished. The photo is of Peggy and I in Shanghai in May of 2009.

Why they chose this property

Once you see the view from the back porch, or from the covered pavilion, or from the hot tub, or the sauna, or anywhere in the back yard, there will be no question as to why we decided on this location. The two comments that we hear from everyone are, 'That is a MILLION DOLLAR VIEW' or 'THAT is THE BEST view in Wimberley and/or Hays County'. Come see for yourself.

What makes this property unique

Why is this property so successful?
* The Number One Reason for Success at all of our properties is that we have very large homes that allow large groups or families to all be together, but everything is SPREAD OUT so that you are not underfoot all the time, and can still have privacy in your large group.
* Million dollar view.
* Private estate allows peace and quiet.
* High end luxury in the construction and furnishings.
* 3 fireplaces, hot tub, sauna, firepit.
* Full outdoor kitchen and covered pavilion.
* 11 TVs with cable and premium channels.
* 6 basket disc golf course
* A pool area nicer than most resorts.
* Fully furnished with everything you need.
* Incredible Game Room and 3 tiered Theater Room with 9 leather lay out seats.

The Main Reason for our Success - is that Peggy and I built this for our families use. We made it nice for us, and now everyone can share in this. This property is big enough to accommodate a large group, but allows so many places for people to be, that you are not crowded or bumping into each other. The new game room is a great addition to this property, and we are very excited about it. Thank you for considering Rim Rock Lodge, and we are confident that it will be a great decision for you.
