Highland Drive camp cabin

The cabin was very nice and clean. The bedroom outside was very cold the first night. We turned on the heaters provided and it was very comfortable. It was very peaceful. We came for spring break with our son. We all enjoyed our stay there. Highly recommend it.

Quiet and Cozy Cabin

If you want a relaxing and peaceful getaway around nature, this is the place for you. The cabin was just what I needed to unwind from the business of life. Waking up and sitting on the veranda listening to the birds and feeling the breeze was calming. I enjoyed a quiet walk by the river during the afternoon and got to see some deer walking by. There isn't a television there but the record player (with Bluetooth) and the assortment of records was all I needed while inside the cabin.It is not too far away from downtown Bandera and there were quite a few things to do in town. I very much enjoyed my stay and will recommend this place to anyone looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Worst possible host/owner with poor communication and has a propensity to falsely accuse people of things with no proof.

Great little getaway!

Lovely property- we took our two labs and they had a blast running round the yard. The only advice I would give to anyone traveling here is to bring slippers! The floors are quite rustic so splinters on sensitive feet did happen. Of course it was our kiddo who wouldn’t stop dragging his feet but still a good idea! Besides that great place, good location.

Beautiful Getaway

We had a blast staying at this secluded cabin on the river! The food in town (O.S.T & TJs) was so good. I can’t recommend this cabin as an staycation enough!

Perfect Cabin, Great Location

My family stayed here for a car event in the hill country and it was perfect! The clean and cozy cabin provided plenty of room, had comfortable beds with a nice selection of lines, and the couch was a great place to relax after long days of driving. Even though the kitchen was small, it was laid out very well and easy to work in. The stairs down to the river was an added treat! Great place to stay!

Nostalgic River Cabin

If you are looking to get away, unplug, and truly relax, this is the perfect cabin! It is located on a perfect spot on the Medina and despite the river levels being really low, we found a beautiful spot on the trail. My son and I loved playing scrabble on the screened-in porch and listening to records on the record player. If I could run away, I would run here!

Fantastic Riverfront Property

This place was perfect for me—the photos on the listing don’t quite do it justice. The river, which is just a quick set of stairs away, was clear and beautiful, and the green belt running along the river is also a gem. Tons of a wildlife—axis deer, gar in the river, a lazy porcupine, an armadillo, a few (nonvenomous) snakes, birds… I couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay.

Great getaway on the Medina River

Very cute and well appointed cabin; really won't need anything but food, charcoal for the Weber grill. Just a few steps to a large staircase down to the water. The river access area was spectacular (water levels were perfect during my stay). You have 2 miles to explore along the water's edge, which was perfect for me and my dogs. Highly recommend!

Great place to stay

Cabin was clean and the area was quiet. Everything you need for a relaxing get away. We enjoyed sitting out watching the river and the hummingbirds the frequented the feeder out back. Great communication by the owner. Would recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet place just out of Bandera. 5 Stars
