About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Secluded Backyard, Near Lake, River, & Whitewater Amp

This property features 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms with an open concept living room, great for visiting. This is the perfect stay for a couple, a small family, or a group of friends.

Enjoy the beautiful scenery from our massive dec, cozy up by a fire under the stars with our outdoor fireplace, or relax in our newly added hot tub. The backyard will capture your heart, as it has ours, because of the peace you feel being surrounded by the countryside.

The hill country views are amazing, and we are located close to whatever it is you're looking to do! The home is 5 minutes from the lake, 10 minutes from the Guadalupe River/Whitewater Amphitheater, 15 minutes from Wimberley and local breweries/wineries, 20 minutes from San Marcos and the Tanger Outlets, 20-30 minutes from Gruene, New Braunfels, and Schlitterbahn, and 30 minutes from Dripping Springs. It truly is the perfect spot for a vacation because there is so much to do close by.

If you're looking to just have a peaceful retreat and stay close to home, you'll love the massive outdoor deck, as it is surrounded by hill country, and the trees help you feel secluded from neighbors. This house offers a great space to relax and unwind from the grind of normal life.

On your drive to the house, you will be immersed in the beautiful rolling hills of Texas Hill Country and if you look closely, you'll even be able to see the lake at the peak of the hills from the neighborhood!

For those of you looking to do some work during your stay, we offer high speed internet, and our dining table has a great view for you to enjoy during the workday.

The home is furnished with a king-sized bed in the master bedroom and a queen-sized bed in the second bedroom. The optimal amount of guests is 4 people, but if you're willing to squeeze, it could fit 5-6 people - Although, someone might have to sleep on our comfy sectional to make it work for parties larger than 4!

In the kitchen, you will find that it is stocked with all the silverware, cutlery, dishes, pots, pans, spices, and cooking oil you'll need to make meals at home.

We also provide a coffee bar stocked with a Keurig, coffee pods (including decaf), a selection of teas, sugar, and creamer.

The living room is furnished with a nice flat-screen Roku TV so you can login to any streaming app during your stay.

Additional amenities you will find include: a washer and dryer, iron, blow dryer, towels, shampoo/conditioner, and more.

You'll have access to the entire home, other than the garage, as that stays locked for our cleaners.

We are happy to host furry friends, but we do want to make note that the backyard is not fenced in. For those requesting to bring along a pet, we ask that you approve that with the host first.

Please note, in an effort to maintain a secure premises, the home is equipped with a ring doorbell and three exterior cameras. One exterior camera looks out into the front entrance/driveway and the other two are located on the backside of the house. The cameras are ONLY on the exterior, and there are no cameras on the inside.

Our home is thoroughly cleaned between each stay.

Any items left behind by a guest will be either thrown out, or shipped to the guest at their expense.

Canyon Lake is the perfect Texas Hill Country getaway with things to enjoy for any type of guest. The home is 2.5 miles from the Canyon Lake Marina and a great beach spot for the family. For those of you looking for a float trip on the Guadalupe River, the house is only 6 miles from the Horseshoe Loop (a 2hr float depending on water levels) with several tubing outfitters. If you're lucky, you can even catch a concert at the White Water Amphitheater on the Horseshoe. For day trips, Wimberley is 8 miles away, Gruene is 15 miles away, New Braunfels is 17 miles away, and Dripping Springs is 19 miles away. If you want to venture even further to explore the city, Austin is only 36 miles away. Please reach out to us if you have any questions, we would love to help make your stay as special as we can!

Wonderful
We loved this house. Drinking coffee in the morning on the deck, soaking in the hot tub after a long hike, and happy hour by the outdoor fireplace. The place was spotless and very comfortable. Texas Hill country is beautiful in the spring

This was the perfect place for a getaway, sitting by the fire, and relaxing in hot tub was very peaceful. We stayed in December, and we are certainly planning another stay here during the summer!

Fall Getaway
This property made for a great getaway with the family. Close enough to roam around San Antonio while still remote enough to relax and slow down. The hot tub was great for winding down in the evenings and the kids enjoyed watching deer from the kitchen window then going out to look for their tracks later. Host was very accommodating and accessible. Great property if looking to explore the area but do not want to be in town.

Quiet and Relaxing
The house was super cute, very clean and so incredibly well decorated. The beds were all very comfortable with nice linens. I loved the back porch swing and fireplace. We only stayed for one night but would absolutely stay here again. It's a beautiful property in a quiet neighborhood.
