Kerrville is known for fine wineries, shopping and cuisine, and the Guadalupe River, and all are close to the Blue Retreat! The scenic Guadalupe River Trail runs alongside the river, threading its way through green parks. All of Kerrville is yours to discover and enjoy!

Outside the Retreat, an umbrella-shaded deck with plenty of furniture is next to a covered pergola section adorned with outdoor lights and a waterfall. There's also a cozy second-story deck off the master bedroom. Pretty Hill Country views are all around; relax and enjoy them in the hot tub! Gather around the fire pit, and treat yourself to a BBQ on the gas grill. There's also plenty of parking!

Equipment is set up for foosball, air hockey, corn hole, tetherball, basketball, and ping pong. Most gaming areas are shaded, and there are tables for relaxing. Keep in mind a small fee may be required for some games, and this area is shared with others.

The guest home features central air for comfort. All is brand new, from the furniture and electric fireplace to the Roku-equipped TV (accessible with Wifi provided). Tables inside and out mean you'll feast in style, and the full kitchen has new appliances, a combo regular and K-Cup coffee maker, and lots of food prep space. If your stay is three days or longer, laundry facilities are also available. Access the second floor with the spiral staircase inside, or by the easier-to-use outdoor stairs.

Exciting vacations require some rest, and you'll sleep in style here!

#B-Blue Retreat in the Hill Country
The place was great, but a little bit noisy from traffic on the highway nearby. The host was responsive to our requests. The only big issue was the very skinny spiral stairs leading to the bedrooms. Fine for those under age 30, but maybe not so easy for us. We're all old and over 65. We're all in very good shape, so it didn't make much difference, but it might for some.
