Secluded Getaway

We absolutely loved our stay at the cabin! My little family needed a getaway and change of pace from Covid-life, and the cabin in Medina was just perfect. The enjoyed siting on the porch to watch the wildlife in the mornings and our toddler loved exploring by the river and throwing rocks in the water. The firepit was nice for evening fun too. We took a daytrip over to Lost Maples for the beautiful fall colors. The cabin was very clean and comfortable with plenty of space. Think we'll be planning another trip in the spring/summer!

Owner is a scammer

Property had worn bedding and blamed me for previous damage and kept my deposit. Many better places in the Hill Country
Stayed 5 nights in May 2025
Response from VrboOwner on 9 June 2025
The guest arrived nearly three hours early without prior notice, while the property was still being cleaned. Additionally, they brought seven people, despite the reservation being for only five—a clear violation of our house rules. According to our cleaning team, the home was left in poor condition. We also discovered damage to the stovetop and a broken table leg. As a result, we retained the security deposit and are pursuing additional compensation to cover the other damages.

Great Place to Stay

Nice house, everything you need! Short walk to river but was very low, hoping for rain! Best part was the wildlife around the house. Couple of river spots with a little water, but no need for floats and tubes. Just playing and sitting in the water was the options close by. Apple Store in the town of Medina had great food! Would like to stay again once the Medina River is flowing better.

Quiet Getaway

The property was exactly as advertised. The cabin was very clean and spacious. Lots of wildlife to watch. Our children really enjoyed exploring during the short hikes down to the lazy river, and they loved roasting hot dogs over the fire pit at night. We would definitely come back again.

Perfect getaway

We were needing to get away for some quiet and relaxing time and this place had it. The house was great and had everything we needed but the location was the best. We walked down to the river and sat on the back porch watching the variety of wildlife that came out to eat the corn that we threw out. Besides the whitetail, we had black buck, axis, wild pigs, and mouflon sheep. We did go for a drive through the hill country and then stopped in town at the apple store and had lunch and brought some delicious apple pie back with us. We will definitely be back when we can stay a little longer.

Great stay

We had a wonderful stay, property and cabin were absolutely as advertised and pictured. Cabin was clean and updated. The River was a short walk on a well maintained path. River access is fantastic, shallow enough for small kids and deeper in parts for bigger kids to swim. Crystal clear water in a private and secluded location. We saw deer at all times of day and at night saw more stars than we’ve ever seen before. Cabin was well stocked with necessities like trash bags, toilet paper etc. Only small criticism would be that the tap water wasn’t great for drinking so would recommend brining bottled water.

Peace & quiet in the Hill Country

Really enjoyed our stay at the Medina cabin. It was just two of us, so we only used the master suite and the one additional bathroom. There are two other bedrooms, with multiple beds/bunks, that could sleep bunches of kids, who would be very happy there. The place seems very new, and regardless, very clean. Kitchen is simple and functional (didn’t use it much). Good layout and space. From San Antonio airport, just over an hour drive (through Boerne and Bandera). Places to eat in Bandera and also Kerrville (north about 30 minutes). Lots of recreational options, including just a 5 minute stroll to the Medina River from the back deck. Improvement opportunities: clear check-out instructions, and better stocked things like dishwasher pods. According to my ladyfriend, the female-friendly amenities (lotions, conditioners, etc) could be upgraded. But these are nitpicks. We really enjoyed the stay and definitely would return. Thanks to the Forrests for hosting us. DAC

Beautiful Medina River!

The river was at the back end of the property, which was great. The water was very low when we went which was great for the small children, not so good for the bigger ones! It was very close to town to pick up forgotten necessities. Very clear river and nice accommodations.
