About this property
Guadalupe River Road Retreat Honeymoon Cabin
Welcome to the Honeymoon Cabin at the The Guadalupe River Road Retreat! We have three additional cabins (VRBO codes 7914761, 9451823, and 2016286) sharing six beautiful acres of Guadalupe river frontage, where guests are free to wander the park like setting under the shade of majestic oaks, pecans, and cypress trees. Enjoy fantastic views of the Guadalupe river from cabin decks and bench swings, take a nap in a hammock, relax and cook smores at our firepits, or play tennis day or night on our newly resurfaced tennis court, and of course spend time in and on the river!
Our retreat differs from many of the rental options on the river. We cater to families, couples, reunions and small groups who want a tranquil environment and wish to avoid the rowdy crowds and party cabins. We limit group sizes to what the cabins can comfortably accommodate, and we enforce our property rules regarding day guests, loud music, and disorderly conduct. If you are looking for an oasis on the river, a place where you can have fun but also relax in comfort, peace, and privacy, Guadalupe River Road Retreat is the place for you!
General info.
The Guadalupe River Road Retreat is located at 8910 River Road between the second and third crossing, halfway between Gruene and Canyon Lake, and is accessible via an electric gate (code provided upon booking).
We have two river access points, a concrete dock with steps down, or via a natural path down to a sitting area under the canopy of two massive cypress trees. Across the river from the property is a unique limestone expanse carved by the river where guests frequently enjoy hanging out, playing in the water, and watching the toobers float by.
There are multiple river outfitters within a short distance of the property, with the closest being Mountain Breeze which is less than a quarter mile from our access gate.
Gruene Texas, famous for its shops, restaurants, and the historic Gruene Dance Hall, is only nine miles (15 to 20 minutes south of our location). Sattler, where guests can find a small grocery store, gas, and other necessities, is only five miles (approximately 13 minutes) to the north.

Check-in was easy. The owners were very welcoming and accommodating. We celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary. They had a beautiful rose flower arrangement inside for us. The house was like an animal sanctuary. There were deer, birds galore and exotic geese. It was just a few steps away from the river. You could see the river and tubers from the patio. It was a fun place. I enjoyed the calm and quietness of nature. You could really relax.
My husband and I stayed at this property and felt it was the perfect find. The hosts were welcoming and so nice. We walked down to the water, set up our chairs and enjoyed the floaters passing. I highly recommend any of their rentals on this property.
Owners met us at the gate and everything was awesome from there! Weather actually stayed away so we could enjoy the river. House was perfect for our needs and we will definitely be back! Thank You!

We had an incredible experience, even before our arrival. The hosts were exceptional, with communication, tips, instructions and super attentive in all ways possible and the cabin was just perfect for a weekend away. It was a surprise for my husband and he was certainly fascinated, with the peace, river access, and great location - Highly recommended.
We rented this cabin for our anniversary. The cabin was cozy and had everything we needed. Location was famous just a few feet from the water. Very private and lovely to be among the trees and to hear the flowing of the river. Strongly recommended! Will definitely be renting again.
