Patrick has a great little cabin. The river was beautiful and we especially enjoyed the abundance of birds - Patrick even provided a jar of bird seed! Thanks for a great stay!
A slice of heaven on earth! Out of all the VRBOs that we book, Patrick’s place is the one we repeatedly come back to. His pride of ownership is evident with the beautifully maintained cabin & grounds, and the Llano river is sooo relaxing. We had a wonderful time as always and we can’t wait to be back again to this home away from home.
We loved the location and how close we were to the river. The area is secluded and it was the perfect getaway for a few days. We would stay here again.
The place was exactly as described and pictured. We had a wonderful stay and enjoyed the river and the fire pit very much. We will definitely look up this cabin when we are back in the area!
Perfect weekend getaway and very, very quiet! Cabin is clean and well stocked. The river is a good spot for fishing or swimming. I highly recommend this cabin, owner is really friendly and attentive!
What a wonderful place to go to and just relax and unwind. The place is located on a beautiful spot on the llano river and you can fish or just sit on the bank and enjoy your surroundings. Nicely located between Mason and Fredericksburg. Will be staying there again very soon!
The property is absolutely perfect! So much history is just right there at your feet. My husband and I will definitely be booking this stay in the future.
Beautifully redone old cabin! We have been to multiple spots on the llano in this area and this was one of the best! Plenty of spots that are deep enough to swim and shallower places to hang out. This is a well kept property that was great for myself, husband and two young kids.
We had a perfect anniversary getaway. We kayaked on the river and had so much fun. Patrick was a perfect host and shared the history of the area. We enjoyed learning! The cabin is perfect for a couple, very comfortable & charming.
What a great way to truly disconnect and be isolated!! The surrounding area was beautiful with fields of wildflowers. The sounds of nature are so soothing as well.
Perfect spot to enjoy some peace and quiet, sit in the river to beat the heat, and chill. On top of that, Patrick is an awesome host. Will definitely be back.
A perfect location to relax, rewind, refresh.
Beautiful location, dark starry nights, and the sound of the Llano river flowing several yards below the cabin. Easy access to several towns, such as Fredricksburg. Our host, Patrick, was wonderful and informative. This was our first time there, and look forward to another in the fall!
Beautiful property, clean cabin, everything necessary for a peaceful, relaxing time away.
A wonderful place for hearing nothing but the peaceful flow of the river and the chirping of birds. At night the multitude of stars that can be seen are amazing and awe inspiring.
Thank you
The cabin was a well designed and comfortable for two. The large porch was were we spent our time when we weren't relaxing or fishing in the river. You have private river access with a great entry point.
We stayed for two nights and it was perfect. We were hoping for a quiet weekend on the river to celebrate our anniversary. And it was all we had hoped for and more. The cabin setting is great with easy access to the river. We took our kayaks, and paddled and fished all we wanted and also enjoyed splashing in the water, resting on the rocks along the rapids, watching the wildlife and just enjoying the peace and quiet. At night the stars are spectacular! I will take some water noodles or a pool float to enjoy the water even more when we return and camp chairs as sitting on the bank in the shade is also nice, but with ants sitting in the grass is risky.Patrick the owner/host is great!

Gorgeous Cabin and River
This place is heavenly! We spent the weekend here with our 15yr and 7yr boys and we had a blast! The cabin is so CLEAN, comfy beds, everything is truly perfect! We spent most of our time in the beautiful Llano River which is so easy to walk down to from the cabin. We floated on rafts and had a great time swimming and exploring the dam area. Patrick is the nicest most helpful person and made our stay so comfortable and relaxing! My husband and I can’t wait to come back!

This is hands down one of the best places to stay! My husband and I had our kids with us this time and both are ready to go back (ages 10 and 12) We fished they swam and just had a great time! Weather was dreary but it DID NOT slow us down! It is so peaceful and Patrick is a phenomenal host! We WILL be back to his place! Thank you so much again!
