Beautiful, Serene
This spot is both beautiful and serene. I loved the individual cabins. The outdoor space was gorgeous. The pool was a great size for a bunch of teenagers. The only negative (if you even want to consider it a negative) is there isn't a large living/family room for everyone to gather out in one spot of the heat. Overall, I would definitely recommend this home and I would definitely rent again.

Perfect for large groups.
Great place to stay! Recently stayed with a large group and loved that we all got our own little cottage and bathroom for each family. Pros: lots of amenities on the property, you wouldn’t ever have to leave as it has everything right there! The pool was amazing. Café lights throughout the whole property that made a stunning during the night time. Cons: -overall, the property was not very clean. I talked to the property manager at the end of our stay and she said they had somebody different clean it prior to our party staying. Things like hair in the shower from previous guests, nose marks on the windows from a dog, dust on the blinds, dried food in the kitchen. - we ordered the $250 linen package. Was disappointed when the linens were not put on all the beds they were just laid out. Also only came with a flat sheet. Would expect all beds to be ready when you pay that price. Overall would def stay again! Had a great stay!

Fantastic Experience! Highly Recommend!
Our stay at Agave Point was wonderful. Hosts were readily available and very responsive. Property was everything we expected -- clean, well-kept, comfortable. Plenty of space for our extended family to spread out, have their own spaces, and come together for meals and swimming at the pool. Overall, just a fantastic experience and highly recommend.

Wonderful Vacation
We had a great time staying at Agave Point. It worked perfectly for our large family. Everyone had their own space but we could come together for meals, s’mores around the campfire, etc. The pool was beautiful, the kitchen was well stocked with cookware and tableware, and the location was conveniently close to the Frio River. Would stay here again. Thanks for the hospitality!

Multi family river trip
This property was really amazing. Since we were multiple families gathering, we all had a house to give distance, yet be together too. I would have prefered the communication leading up to check-in sooner than it was and to have been sent in an email. I couldn't drive and write down everything being said over the phone. It made me feel unprepared. It was also unfortunate to learn about the linen fee that I overlooked. The thought of no linens made me absolutely panic, but Nanette truly jumped in and helped me. Just prepay for the linens and all should be fine. It really is a wonderful location and the reviews of the pool are no lie. We spent all of our time there and it was a blast! Once we were there, this property was beyond my expectations. It gives you a sense of history, luxury, and charm. Such a great opportunity to stay there.

The location is great and the family did not have to leave we had plenty of activities available. The only thing is the tub in the main house is slippery and needs a mat or remind the guest to bring one. My father slipped and fell getting into the tub.

Comfortable house with great history ....a few note worthy issues.
This was our first trip to the Frio, and we had a great time. The location is terrific! Our teens loved the pool, the horseshoes and especially the cornhole game. It offered hours of fun and competition between the teens and Dads. The layout of having separate quarters for our teen boys and teen girls was perfect for our group. A few maintenance issues of note: The main historic river house had a definite smell. It was either mold, mildew, a dead animal under the porch or just history. We called and spoke with the property manager, and they said they would send someone out to investigate. To our knowledge, no one ever came out. It is an historic property, but the smell was very unpleasant. An additional issue to note was that the air conditioning units at all houses had to be kept at 74 degrees or they would ‘freeze up’. For the insulation of these houses, that is very warm. The teens didn't mind as much as the middle-aged moms cooking in the kitchens :) As we have never been to the Frio before, the condition of this house may be the norm. The lay out and amenities were wonderful, I would say that there were a lot of minor repairs that needed to be done. Drains stuck in the down position, shower curtains that fell and had to be rehung, etc. None of these were big issues, more just inconveniences causing a little extra work by the Daddys on the trip. The kitchens were both stocked with ample plates, cups and silverware. (We used paper products most of our trip.) The pots and pans for cooking were very eclectic and looked to be what were items left behind by previous renters. I brought my own muffin pan, cookie sheets, skillets, etc. and was very glad I did. We enjoyed our stay very much, but I have had a hard time getting our deposit returned or any communication as to why there has been a delay. I was assured it would be returned within 7 days of vacating the property, we left 13 days ago :/ Couple that with the fact that before we even checked in, I received a call that we were not getting our whole deposit back due to some damages. Once I explained we hadn't even checked in yet, they quickly apologized for the mistake. This and the fact that I still haven't received my deposit has made me a bit nervous. I'm sure this will get sorted out, but it does explain my lower rating for the property manager. I honestly hated leaving this review, as it is my first negative review ever on VRBO in at least 10 years of VRBO rentals. I am easy to ple

Agave Point provided the perfect location for our family get together. From the short walk to the river to hanging out at the property and enjoying the pool, we couldn't have asked for a better stay. The management company seemed to really care about their guests and was easy to communicate with. In short, we made some great memories! Thank you Nanette for your assistance through out out stay.

Had a problem with air in cabin & shower but called management & both were fixed immediately. We had a person in wheel chair but he could be wheeled to the back & enjoy activities Tried tubing but too low.

Location, Cleanly, Roomy
We planned a 3 night stay with a family group of 13. I’ll just put our one complaint out there first and then move on. There were plenty of bunks but only 2 big beds. 4 of the bunks were located in a small building that just would not get cool, so the kids slept in our room. No big deal but 1 extra Queen would have been very useful. Now on to the good stuff. The location can’t be beat. It’s a moderate walk down to get in the river. It’s a very short drive to get to the main tubing spot. Another short drive to the store. Everything is right there for you. We absolutely loved the pool area and spent the vast majority of our time right there. The pool was clean with some pool toys and floats provided. The cabana was the gathering spot for everything we did. This was the grandest feature of the place. There is a large bar area which holds a lot of food trays and will seat 5-6. On one side of the bar under the cabana is a circle dining table that we easily sat 6 more at for every meal. On the other side is a sectional couch with a large coffee table which several opted to eat at. There was no problem finding a place to sit down and eat. I cooked every meal while there and we used the cabana for every one. It was amazing. The cabins are each VERY well outfitted. Comfortable beds, nice tables, high quality counters and appliances. The centralized cabin was our staging ground for all meals. A VERY large island with stainless countertops and 3 ovens made food prep and cooking a breeze. They have a plethora of knives, kitchen gadgets, bowls, plates, pans, silverware and anything else you might need to prepare and cook meals with. There is a large fire pit that can seat an entire group around. There was a burn ban while we were there so we didn’t get to use it, but it would be a great spot any other time. As mentioned earlier, we spent most of our time at the pool. This is not a small pool that can only fit 4-5 people at a time. We had 10 people in at one time playing around without feeling the least bit crowded. There is a nice sized TV in the cabana which we watched the Rangers game on each night and enjoyed a movie on the last night, all while laying around in the pool. We would definitely recommend this place for anyone wanting a getaway and not worry about having to go to the river to get wet.
