The Perfect Getaway!

This was hands down the best place we have ever rented! The owners went above and beyond, thinking of every detail to make our stay comfortable and special—including beautifully decorating the house for the holidays. The mattresses were incredibly comfortable, the house was spotless, and the location couldn’t have been more perfect. We truly felt at home here and can’t wait to return. Highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a flawless rental experience!

Everything was perfect!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Duck Inn. Everything we needed was provided. We relaxed each morning and evening on the back porch, watching the many birds and squirrels at the feeders. We looked forward to staying here again when we visit our grandchildren. Thank you!

Texas hill country in spring

My two friends and I had a great experience at the Duck Inn from start to finish. It's a sweet property just a few blocks from the center of the small charming Texas town of Boerne. The Duck Inn was warm, welcoming, and beautiful as we walked in and we immediately felt at home. With two bedrooms, a comfortable living room, a well-appointed kitchen area, and a sweet private back yard area, it was perfect for us. Our hosts, Karen and John, knew we were coming to see the eclipse and communicated with us frequently before the trip to let us know what to expect due to the likely higher-than-normal number of visitors in town. They provided very useful advice so we would be well prepared and could make the most of our trip. The location is great! We very much enjoyed exploring Boerne, which has a lot of character and many interesting shops and places to eat. We also enjoyed driving around the spectacular Texas hill country. Throughout our stay, Karen and John could not have been more gracious. They checked in to see how we were doing and even invited us to their ranch to see the eclipse, which made the eclipse a memorable experience even though the clouds obscured it. Thanks to the quality and location of the property and the thoughtfulness of our hosts, we could not have had a more perfect time during our stay at the Duck Inn!

Great weekend get awat

The property was immaculate. The kitchen and Bath were well stocked. It is just a half block to river walk and a half mile walk into town. Restaurants and shopping all walking distance. PERFECT Location. There were bird feeders in back yard - lots of birds to watch. A smal fox climbed over the fence and laid down in the corner of the yard! My husband was thrilled to see that. We loved using the fire pit every night and sitting out under the stars. Great place for 2 couples to get away!!!!!!

Another nice visit to the Duck Inn

We enjoyed our repeat visit. Every amenity is well considered. Bedrooms are comfortable and the bathroom is a nice space. The kitchen is very well equipped. If you’re eating indoors the kitchen table is perfect for two adults and two children. There is lovely outdoor seating. Lighting in the bedroom is great; it’s a little dark in the living room. The location is great for walking.

Absolutely perfect

This home was so inviting and accommodating. Fully stocked kitchen and such thoughtful amenities such as wall plugs that included usb for phones and sound machines in each bedroom. The backyard was so pleasant to sit for our morning coffee. The birds and squirrels kept us entertained. The hosts were so accommodating and very communitive. They even checked in to make sure we had everything. We have 4 stars for location only due to the evening noise from local establishments. But to be expected when they are close by. Perfect location for walk on the river or a stroll down main street. We will definitely be back.

Amazing stay from beginning to end!

This place is a wonderful gem in Boerne. The description and pictures of the property really don't do it justice. The place was beautifully decorated and updated. The backyard is quiet and we felt like we were secluded from everyone. Enjoyed an evening by the fire pit which was an added bonus. Little extras like snacks and a bottle of champagne for my wife's birthday were such a great personal touch to add to an amazing stay. Can't rave enough about the open communication with Karen and John. Always available to answer questions about the area and give recommendations for anything from a bite to eat to a cool bar to hang out at. This was such a great time, we will definitely be back.

Wonderful property for a stay in Boerne, which is a very charming town we return to every year. The downtown shopping, restaurant and brewery scene is all within walking distance and the No. 9 multi-use (hike and bike) trail is also nearby. Well-kept property with everything a visitor needs and an emphasis on natural products such as laundry detergent and bath products.

About the host

Hosted by Karen and John Wolters

John and Karen settled in Boerne 17 years ago to raise their children, who are seventh generation Texans. They live and work in Boerne, and take heartfelt pride in the heritage and traditions of the Texas Hill Country. John and Karen have German and Czech ancestry and can’t wait to welcome you to Boerne.

Why they chose this property

After living in Houston, Austin, and Colorado Springs, John and Karen wanted to settle in the Hill Country to make friends and raise a family. They love the Texas-sized hospitality that Boerne has to offer. Their favorite part of living in the Hill Country is the wide selection of unique dining, shopping, music venues, scenic drives, and winery, distillery, and brewery tours.

What makes this property unique

Duck Inn is location, location, location- and is newly renovated with updated furniture and fixtures. The Duck Inn is located within walking distance to downtown Boerne’s shops and restaurants, and is also just a quick drive away from Fredericksburg, San Antonio, and many other fun Hill Country destinations. You can enjoy a view of the Cibolo Creek from the front yard of the Duck Inn, or stroll along the Heart of Boerne walking trail, stopping to feed the ducks, pier fish, drop a kayak in the creek, or just have a seat and enjoy the views. Don’t forget to stop for a meal or a brew at one of our favorite restaurants, both just a half-block walk away from the Duck Inn. The Dodging Duck Brewhaus offers lunch, dinner, and a brew and wine selection, with indoor and outdoor seating overlooking the Cibolo Creek. The Little Gretel Restaurant offers an award-winning authentic Czech and traditional German menu for breakfast, lunch and dinner, with a lovely Biergarten overlooking the Cibolo Creek.
