Miller's Dream on the Blanco

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Welcome to Miller's Dream on the Blanco!

This beautiful family home sits on a peaceful 1.3 acres with 100+ feet of private river frontage. Stone stairs make for easy entry into the clear, cool, spring-fed water that is deep year-round, even in the hot summer months when the Blanco can dry up elsewhere.

Start your morning with breakfast on the back patio, watching the deer and taking in the view of the meadow going down to the river. Or, have coffee in a rocking chair on the long front porch, listening to the birds in the oak trees. Enjoy the day relaxing or playing in the water, head to town to shop, or explore the nearby towns. Cook and have dinner on the patio, then end your nights around the firepit under the big Hill Country sky, full of stars.

Whether you’re coming for a quick weekend getaway or staying much longer, there’s nothing like a peaceful stay at Miller's Dream on the Blanco.

What’s nearby:
Miller's Dream on the Blanco, you’ll have access to one of the best swimming spots on the Blanco, but you’re also a quick drive to both Jacob’s Well and Blue Hole Regional Park. Be sure to hit up Market Days, the Texas Hill Country’s most popular antique show, the first Saturday of each month - just five minutes from the home. You're also 10 minutes from HEB (Texas’ most beloved grocery stores) and 12 minutes from Wimberley town square, which is full of great shops (antiques, boutiques, eclectic art galleries) and some excellent restaurants. If you're feeling adventurous, head to Wimberley Zipline Adventures. And of course, being in the Texas Hill Country, you're not far from numerous wineries, breweries, and distilleries.

Beautiful river

We loved our stay at Miller’s Dream. The house is well equipped. And the river is beautiful and fun to swim in. We enjoyed watching the fireflies from the back porch.

Graduation Trip

Stayed here for a couple of nights for our daughter’s graduation at Texas State. It was a peaceful property that is well kept. Enjoyed walking down to the river and even caught a bass! The deer came and visited in the morning an evening. All in all it was a great place to stay and would definitely go back.

Great house

Perfect house to stay with kids. Fished the river at the access point on the property, and cooked smores in the fire pit. House is 10 min from everywhere in Wimberley, perfect distance to be close but crowded in town.

Hill Country Vacay

Our family of 4, we have 2 teens, completely loved staying in this lovely home. It rained for most of our stay but we were able to sit on the patio or enjoy the hammock on the back porch while we listened to the rain. In our final day we were able to enjoy the beautiful Blanco. The property is so close to town but secluded enough that you feel like you have successfully disconnected for focused family time.

The pictures do not do the house justice! The water was great! We had teenagers with us and they just floated and played around. Next time, we will bring fishing poles!

Beautiful home and Amazing views

Miller’s Dream was indeed a DREAM… The home was amazing with breath taking views and the river was great especially for our 8yo. Very safe for that age since the water is deep enough for their ages! This home was also so close to the store and Wimberly Square. We would definitely book again. The only downside is the checkout time was really early at 10am which we hope that it was extended to 12pm at least, this would have been really amazing.

River Escape

We stayed here with our three young kids and enjoyed the quiet escape. The house is well stocked and appointed which allowed for comfort and ease as we cooked all meals in house. We swam in the river and ran around the yard and enjoyed stargazing at night around the fire pit. We would gladly book again and appreciate the hosts opening up their home. The beds are comfortable, house and porches are clean, good air flow, quiet surroundings and a perfect riverside retreat.

Very relaxing

Relaxing and comfortable. Enough space for everyone. Maybe have a note to refer to the property map before going outside. We inadvertently went in the neighbor's yard before we saw the map.

The perfect getaway!

My husband, son and I rented this home for our last vacation as a family of three before baby arrived and we were blown away! The home was clean and quaint and had everything we needed. From the kitchen being fully stocked for cooking needs down to travel sized toiletries should we need them. The beds were comfy and it felt just like home! The owners were also so incredibly helpful and sweet. The river was easily accessible and was so chilly and clean (perfect for these hot Texas days!) The house was also conveniently close to Wimberley Square and H‑E‑B. We will definitely be back in the future!

Great place to relax - would stay here again

The property is private and spacious with two porches that extend across the length of the house. The Blanco river is at a nice spot with lots of privacy. We went in drought conditions and still had cool water to swim and float in. The house was updated, spotless, with special touches. The beds were comfortable. We will definitely come back to this property.

Blanco River Trip

This is a beautiful home in such a relaxing and peaceful setting. Our teenage grandsons had the river to themselves and loved it. We loved sitting on the patio and enjoying the huge back yard that leads to the river. The deer just strolled through the yard as they stopped to look at us. It’s just outside of Wimberly so it’s close enough to restaurants and shopping etc.

Beautiful property!

This house is great- we had 3 couples, so everyone had a bedroom and plenty of space! (Only issues were a kinda broken shower faucet, & a faulty coffee pot) Loved the backyard view, & we had deer visitors every evening Would recommend, & would go again😊
