Comfortable seating on the shaded patio gives you incredible Hill Country views from your mountain perch!
Lone Star touches and stone work throughout the retreat give it a robust and welcoming ranch feel.

About this property

Boerne Mountain Retreat

This rural nature lover's paradise is just five miles from the splendor of the Kreutzberg Canyon Natural Area, the mysterious Cave Without a Name and Guadalupe River floating.

10 minutes northeast of Boerne, nestled on a high-elevation perch in the heart of the Hill Country, lies the Boerne Mountain Retreat, a roomy vacation rental with the most stunning views you'll see anywhere. The best of town and country are here, too! Boerne's nearby for shopping, nightlife, and fine foods, and the Kreutzberg Canyon Natural Area, the Cave Without a Name, and Guadalupe river tubing are all short drives away. This luxurious guest home is kid-friendly, pet-friendly, and has all the hi-tech amenities, too.

This rural nature lover's paradise is just five miles from the splendor of the Kreutzberg Canyon Natural Area and the mysterious Cave Without a Name. For an adventurous float down the Guadalupe River, there's an outfitter just a half hour away who rents tubes, kayaks, and canoes, and will drop you off and pick you up for a tubing trip.

The shaded patio here is decked out with stylish outdoor furniture, and it offers breathtaking elevated views of the forested Hill Country below. The mist in the trees in the mornings is something you'll never forget! The patio's perfect for socializing, and it also has a safety-screened fire pit. Help yourself to the charcoal grill for a hearty meal in the fresh Texas air. For the safety of your pets and little ones, the property is securely fenced.

Inside, you'll find genuine Texas decor, with hundreds of stars representing the Lone Star State. The whole space is accented throughout with gorgeous handcrafted cedar woodwork and beamed ceilings. Two huge living spaces feature plush furniture-one with a fireplace! Four bedrooms sleep up to eight on feather-soft king and queen sized beds, and the three full bathrooms include either a tub or shower; one has both. Fluffy bed and bath linens are also provided. The full kitchen features modern appliances and cooking and serving ware, including a wine cooler and beer fridge! Central air, heat, and ceiling fans will guarantee your comfort. The TVs here feature DVD players, Roku, and cable, and Wifi Internet service is also available. Finally, there's a convenient laundry room.

Be prepared to be AMAZED

The description of this property is spot on except it exceeded our expectations. Large room sizes, furnished as one would want for hill country and incredible views. Very private. So glad we chose this house in Boerne.

Absolutely gorgeous

I must say this has been one of the most exceptional places I have stayed in quite some time . The house was beautiful and offered ample space for our family who accompanied us . On one of the days, it happened to rain, and enjoying coffee on the back porch was truly delightful . We had an event to attend , so this location was extremely convenient . The only concern I encountered during our stay was the presence of cobwebs, and while sweeping a couple times, I noticed a significant amount of dog hair. I would definitely consider staying here again for a getaway or when visiting family again .

Had a great stay. Saw a few deer in the backyard which was really cool

House was pretty clean. Sectional in large living area needs to be cleaned because it smells like animals. I was a little concerned when I got to the property because the key was left in the front door instead of in the locked pad and the door was unlocked. Everything else was great.

Great House

Perfect for hanging out with friends and enjoying the peace and tranquility. Everything we needed was available. With the exception of the air conditioner not being able to keep up with the heat. Got to 78 to 80° every day in the house. But it usually was back to sleep temperature by midnight. Sitting out on the back porch just looking out over the scenery was very very peaceful and tranquil. You will enjoy this house.

Wedding weekend

Rented the house for the weekend to attend a wedding in Boerne. The house was amazing. The views are beautiful. If you like sitting on the porch and drinking coffee, this is the house for you. Boerne is about a 20 minute drive from the house. Visit “Cave Without A Name” while you are there. It’s a 1.5 miles from the house and it’s only a 1 hour cave tour but definitely worth it.
