About this property

The Lodge at Lightning Bug Springs

If you're looking to escape the hustle and bustle of big city The Lodge at Lightning Bug Springs is the perfect destination; 15 acres of beautiful property nestled along the banks of the Dry Frio. Don't let the name "Dry" fool you, though. There is a swimming hole just steps away. The property offers a swimming pool, hiking, a large fire pit, a volleyball net, outdoor pavilion, tire swings, horse shoes, soccer goals and large shade trees for enjoying nature. In the evening watch the sun set while the deer graze in the field.
The Lodge offers 3 bedrooms; 1 king, and 2 Queens with 2 full bathrooms. It has a fully equipped kitchen with a full size refrigerator, range top oven, microwave, dishwasher, and coffee pot. It has a living room with two couches and two chairs. The dining area has a large dining table for 6.
The home has central air & heat, washer & dryer and satellite TV.
We want our guest to enjoy their stay worry-free so we provide bed linens and towels which is a rarity in Concan.

The Lodge is far enough from the noise of the main river to experience a peaceful retreat, but just minutes from Concan and its quaint restaurants, quirky shops or to float the Frio.

Spring break getaway
Had a great mini-spring break getaway with the family. Lovely property-lots of space to hike and enjoy, ending the day on the wrap around cabin porch watching a hill country sunset with a great glass of wine.. Great location with quick drives to Garner, Leakey and Uvalde.

About the host

Hi, we are Mike & Dena Krailo

Lightning Bug Springs holds a very special place in our hearts as we watched our children grow up here, splashing in the river, dancing the night away under the pavilion or playing games with all of their friends in the bunkhouse. Our children are grown but the memories last forever.

When we were given the opportunity to manage Lightning Bug we were beyond excited. We want to watch other families make memories here too.

We hope you love Lightning Bug Springs as much as we do and will continue to come back year after year.
