Our home is a 2.5 story house that is right off River Road in Wimberley! Guests will have private access to the second and third floor. Our private residence is below the main floors.. We have 3 bedrooms that will sleep 6 in queen size beds and 2 bathrooms. Full access to kitchen, large deck on 2nd floor and small balcony on half story above. We do have a Pak n Play available for our guests who need one.
We do not provide the linens and pillows for any additional sleeping arrangements. So if there is a 7th or 8th person, bring sleeping bag or air mattress. The price is based on 4 people and there is a $20 for every additional person. We try to keep the price low so smaller groups can come and enjoy the peaceful setting.
Beautiful sunsets, lots of wildlife (deer, turkeys, foxes, raccoons and birds) very relaxing. 3 miles to town square, close to wineries, outlet mall, Gruene, San Antonio, and Austin! Walking distance to river and 2 large, private park areas along river belonging to subdivision. Gas grill for cooking on the deck and a fire pit in the back yard. We also have a barbecue pit that uses wood or charcoal that is available for use.
Nestled in the Wimberley hills, you will experience a peaceful setting at our house with a full-size kitchen, fire pit, propane grill and also a charcoal/wood grill for outdoor cooking, easy access to the river, relax on the new deck watching the sunset & wildlife or visit local wineries, The Square, lavender gardens, etc. We provide our guests all of s'more fixings for making in the evening at the campfire!
We have just redone the large deck, third floor bathroom and third floor balcony. What a view from that balcony!! You will see deer, birds, squirrels, maybe a little fox!! Very peaceful and relaxing. Enjoy a book or a glass of wine or a nap! We will interact with the guests if they like, but if it is solitude they want, they can have that too. We do live downstairs on the first floor, but our guests have their own private entrance to the second and third floor. There is a locked door to our residence downstairs (door is in the kitchen).
We do allow for up to TWO small-medium sized dogs (less than 40 lbs) for and additional $50 pet fee per dog. All dogs must be kept on a leash once outside the house and are NOT allowed on the furniture. If excessive hair causes our housekeeping more work, the cost will be passed on to the guest....so please sweep/clean up the dog hair. We require the dog(s) to be kept in a kennel when guests are not in the house with them. We love dogs and welcome them, but we want them to have a safe, fun visit as well!! Cedar Oak Mesa is a deer friendly neighorhood. Dogs should be quiet, calm and under control at all times. Our deer in our yard are very special to us and excessive barking scares them. We do not want the deer to run into the street and get hurt or killed.
The towels provided are for our guests bath/shower only and not for the river or pets. Please bring your own towels for that! There will be an additional fee if towels are used and dirtied at the river or for dogs.
We do have high-speed, reliable internet for your use!
If getting out of the hustle and bustle sounds good...Wimberley is just the place to relax. We are close enough to Austin, San Antonio, New Braunfels and many wineries. Please feel free to inquire with any questions you may have regarding our property.

This home has it all. We feed deer, watched hummingbirds, walked, and went to the river. I would recommend this home to anyone that wants to get away and enjoy all Wimberly has to offer.

My family and I stayed in Wimberly, Texas to attend a niece's wedding. We were busy with lots of wedding festivities but enjoyed coming home each night to our VRBO and loved waking each morning to cups of morning coffee on the porch with wildlife and songbirds. What a nice get away. The owners were friendly, helpful, and welcoming.

Our stay was awesome!
The only thing wrong with our trip was that it too short! The house was very nice with anything you might need. The Blanco River was within walking distance and the hosts provided tubes! A tasty breakfast was provided each morning. It was a great stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our girls weekend in Wimnerly. The house was surrounded by nature, and was a unique experience feeding the deer. Richard and Donna were super friendly and helpful, and went out of their way to mail some items left behind.
Needed a place in Wimberley for 4 people attending a family wedding right after Thanksgiving. It was only 2 nights but we had a great time. The wildlife was amazing, the accommodations incredible, the s'mores supplies for the firepit perfect!! Super clean and comfortable. Owners thought of everything and are the best hosts! Family wants to come back for a real vacation there and already planning little daytrips and things to do. Can't wait to try this in the spring or summer. Thanks for a memorable weekend.

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and would absolutely love for you to come back to see us! Spring and summer is a great time but I love the Fall the best with the cool nights by the campfire!! Whenever you are able to come, we would love it!! Hope you have a very Merry Christmas and Happy 2025!
Thank you so much for allowing us into your beautiful home...we had a relaxing time away, really enjoyed sitting out at the firepit, making smores, and feeding the abundant deer...especially Charlene! The balcony/deck was a great space to unwind as well and watch the birds, so many hummingbirds...one day we'll need to come back and explore Wimberly a bit more. It was lovely meeting and talking with you, Richard and Donna, hopefully we can do it again!

There is a lot to see around here and is worth a return trip to Wimberley!
Thanks for staying with us! We enjoyed meeting you and hosting you!

This house was perfect for our needs, very clean and had everything we needed. The owners were so helpful and a joy to meet, the house & decor has great character and feels like a Wimberley TX house should. The grounds are beautiful with so many birds and the hummingbirds were visiting too! The bed was comfortable and the coffee setup was awesome in the AM, just what we needed after the birthday festivities we attended. The location off River Road was convenient and beautiful. We would definitely stay here again - thank you Donna & Richard for sharing your place!!

Wonderful. Everything we needed and more. Beds were great, beautiful patio and how can you not love the deer!! Great to have a covered carport. We are already planning another trip!! The hosts live below on the first level and brought up breakfast every morning. Private river access and tubes provided. Loved the place.

Richard and Donna are the best hosts! They have EVERYTHING you need ... all you need is your suitcase! We sat with them almost every night around the campfire talking! They even gave us S’mores to make! They anticipated our needs before we even figured it out for ourselves! We can’t wait to go back and are already trying to synchronize 4 schedules!

This house has it all. Everything was clean and tidy. There were plenty of housewares including nice dishese and towels. Outside the hummingbirds, texas birds and deer abound. My daughter practically has deer eating out of her hand. The back deck is great for watching nature and drinking a glass of wine. It is a short walk to the swimming hole where the water is clean and cold. I would love to go back again.
The location of the house was perfect. The subdivision has two private parks on the Blanco....one with shallows and a small tube chute, the other with a deeper area for swimming. The house is a corner lot set up to feed the wildlife. Deer came throughout the day and we got to hand feed them Cardinals, finches and hummingbirds were all over. The view from the second floor deck is amazing. Our hosts, Richard and Donna, were very helpful and knowledgeable. We had a great time.

Richard and I thoroughly enjoyed visiting with y'all!! We hope you will come back to see us again soon. Y'all were wonderful guests! Thanks for choosing Campfire Dreams.
We went here with our family and my parents. This area is above the owners residence and we had the second and third floor. The home is in acute neighborhood not far from the Blanco River. They have access to a private HOA access to the river: one in a shallow area and one in a deep area. It was not a far walk down the road to access the deep area. You can drive or walk to the more shallow area. The house provided his air compressor to pump up many tubes that they provided for us. Nice treat!!
The best thing about the house was their deck. Nested in the trees on the second level you can watch birds and the deer below. They have deer feeders because the family likes to befriend the deer. They even teach you how to feed them out of the bucket with your hands.
The house had everything we needed. The kitchen was fully stocked. It does not have a dishwasher so we had to hand wash everything. Not a big deal to us. I enjoyed having the candles around the house to light.
Richard and Donna were the best hosts. They even mailed our sandals back when we left them behind

This is our second time booking this house for our get away before the kids go back to school. We love the close access to the river and the drive to Wimberley Square is short. The house is stocked with almost anything you need. Richard and Donna are great hosts. We will definitely be back again!
Although it went by fast and seemed a little to short of a stay, we enjoyed ourselves very much. Got a little sunburn from being at the river for less than 2 hours but, it was so relaxing, fun and peaceful. Watching the deer was nice. A little drive from the square for us, but again the river made it worth it. Donna is awesome and we love her!

We are so happy that you and your family enjoyed yourselves! It is wonderful guests like all of you that we really enjoy! We do hope you will come back to see us! The Fall is also a wonderful time to visit because the nights are great for the campfires and believe it or not, people still get in the river (not me!!) to float. I'm sure your son in San Marcos would love for y'all to come back to visit with him too....so that is another reason to return!! Thanks for choosing Campfire Dreams!!
Just book it! This place is everything! The river is beautiful and the hosts are wonderful! We will be back!

My wife and I invited another couple to getaway for the weekend and visit Wimberley for the first time. Aside from the drizzling rain off and on, we had a wonderful time. The property owners were very friendly and were great to visit with. They built a camp fire in the evening and let us feed the deer. The property is close to town and all the shops and restaurants. You won’t be disappointed in your stay. We can’t wait to go back.
Thank you Richard and Donna
The property was clean and well kept! We really enjoyed our extended weekend on the property. The hosts were very accommodating and made the check in process seemless. They also provided us everything needed plus s’mores supplies!! My husband, myself, our 9 year old, and 10 month old stayed on the property. There’s plenty of room and the location was perfect. Highly recommended.

About the host
Hosted by Richard and Donna Hatch
Richard and I have been sharing our home since Dec. 2015 and have met many wonderful people from all over. We enjoy meeting them and then we give our guests their space! We live on the first floor and the guests have separate and private space on 2nd and 3rd floors.
Richard is retired Lt. Col. in the Air Force and I am a retired private investigator. We have two dogs and one cat that live on the property with us and are very, very friendly. We both enjoy meeting and greeting our guests, but if you want solitude - we will provide that too!
We are available for information, starting campfires, visiting, directions, etc.! We live downstairs on the first floor. We want our guests to have a wonderful experience in Wimberley.
My parents built the house in 1984 and Richard and I inherited it. Our daughter mentioned that it would be fun to share this house with others and so we decided to start this new venture in December 2015. We love meeting our guests and then giving them their space to enjoy everything Wimberley has to offer and to relax on the deck. If you have any questions about our property, all you have to do is ask. We hope to see you at Campfire Dreams.
Why they chose this property
This property has had a lot of guests that enjoy just relaxing on the deck....a place to just sit and enjoy the wildlife! Our home is comfortable and a great place to make memories. We have some deer that will eat out of your hand, a great deck, campfire in the evening and lots of local sites to see.
