About the host
Hosted by Charlene Myers
My husband and I have been in Wimberley for 40+ years. We have managed our rental properties all of these years. We have enjoyed time on the Blanco River with our family and friends all of these years. We moved to this fabulous property after the 2015 flood and have worked to restore the riparian of the Blanco River. We are proud of our efforts and results and hope to leave the river in much better health than we we arrived in 2016.
