We had a blast staying at this secluded cabin on the river! The food in town (O.S.T & TJs) was so good. I can’t recommend this cabin as an staycation enough!

Perfect Cabin, Great Location

My family stayed here for a car event in the hill country and it was perfect! The clean and cozy cabin provided plenty of room, had comfortable beds with a nice selection of lines, and the couch was a great place to relax after long days of driving. Even though the kitchen was small, it was laid out very well and easy to work in. The stairs down to the river was an added treat! Great place to stay!

Great place to stay

Cabin was clean and the area was quiet. Everything you need for a relaxing get away. We enjoyed sitting out watching the river and the hummingbirds the frequented the feeder out back. Great communication by the owner. Would recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet place just out of Bandera. 5 Stars

Highland Drive camp cabin

The cabin was very nice and clean. The bedroom outside was very cold the first night. We turned on the heaters provided and it was very comfortable. It was very peaceful. We came for spring break with our son. We all enjoyed our stay there. Highly recommend it.

We loved this house! The owner was very attentive and easy to communicate with, which made our stay smooth and enjoyable. We didn’t spend a lot of time at the house since we were in town for a conference, but every time we returned, we felt safe and comfortable even when coming in late at night. One of our favorite parts was sleeping on the porch and waking up to the cool, peaceful mornings. Such a refreshing and relaxing experience! Oh, and the record player! That was a fun treat too!

Great getaway on the Medina River

Very cute and well appointed cabin; really won't need anything but food, charcoal for the Weber grill. Just a few steps to a large staircase down to the water. The river access area was spectacular (water levels were perfect during my stay). You have 2 miles to explore along the water's edge, which was perfect for me and my dogs. Highly recommend!

Outstanding

We luv the hill country. Actually came out to look at some retirement properties. Found a couple of potential spots but no rush. House actually reminded us a lot of my in-laws place from the 80’s. Very relaxing and the views & weather both were outstanding! Our host, Alan, was very friendly and on top of any needs we might have had. Very good trip!

Nostalgic River Cabin

If you are looking to get away, unplug, and truly relax, this is the perfect cabin! It is located on a perfect spot on the Medina and despite the river levels being really low, we found a beautiful spot on the trail. My son and I loved playing scrabble on the screened-in porch and listening to records on the record player. If I could run away, I would run here!

Fantastic Riverfront Property

This place was perfect for me—the photos on the listing don’t quite do it justice. The river, which is just a quick set of stairs away, was clear and beautiful, and the green belt running along the river is also a gem. Tons of a wildlife—axis deer, gar in the river, a lazy porcupine, an armadillo, a few (nonvenomous) snakes, birds… I couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay.
