Just Right for a Group of 6

We came to Georgetown for Two Step Inn & had a great stay at the River Retreat! The weather was too cold for the pool, but it looks gorgeous & would be wonderful for warmer days. We loved the big couch in the living room for evening conversation.

Loved the view, the patio furniture, and the pool. Great plants and landscaping. Gorgeous kitchen but please note that the fridge doesn't have drinking water feature. Wouldn't have minded an upgraded toilet paper as it was very thin. We were missing a hot tub. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and we will definitely be back. PS Do be mindful of scorpions as it is Texas.

The backyard and pool overlooking the river are spectacular! So comfortable! Loved watching the sun come up over the trees across the river every morning at about 7:30am.

Best VRBO we have stayed in!

This was by far the best experience we have had with a property on VRBO. The communication with the host was prompt and very accommodating, the house itself is beautiful and the neighborhood is picturesque. We loved the backyard with the pool and how peaceful it was no matter what time of day or night. We are already planning our next trip back!

Great Hill Country Getaway

The property was perfect for our group of six. It seemed like it had been completely remodeled with great attention to detail. The layout was great to hang out together and get a little privacy when needed. The yard was nicely done, pool was much nicer than I would have expected in September, and I look forward to staying there when we go back again.

Perfect Escape for our long weekend

This place has it all! Upon arrival, the house was clean, cool and inviting. We like to cook our meals and everything we needed to cook and serve was available. And then some! The pool and deck view is relaxing and we enjoyed being outside with our doggies. In the evening, there was plenty of room to kick back and enjoy a movie. Beds were amazing and we slept so comfortably! The host was friendly and amazing to work with the whole time. We loved this property. We hope to be back in the future.

Relaxing on the River

We were in town for a family Thanksgiving at our son and his wife’s home. The house in a great location along the river and close proximity to all the amenities of Georgetown. The house is super comfortable and clean and it felt like home away from home. We were even able to cook items for the thanksgiving dinner. We would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Amy C.

Host profile image
This special home feels like you are in the Texas Hill Country, viewing the San Gabriel River, that is always full of water. Yet, it is just a short drive to downtown Georgetown, TX where there is so much to do! Restaurants, shopping, trails, entertainment and more to name a few. We hope to share our home, with other people who want to enjoy the beautiful outdoors with year round waterfront and active wildlife that Georgetown has to offer. What we love about this property the most is it's uniqueness! You will see deer, rock squirrels, turtles and so much more sitting on the back porch. The views are phenomenal! There is not another home like this that we have found in Georgetown. Truly a one of a kind gem. If you are outdoor people who love nature, but also love being close to everything the Georgetown Square has to offer, this home is for you! We are native Texans and hope to share our Texas home with you.

Why they chose this property

This property is one of a kind. There are miles and miles of nearby hiking and bike trails. Shopping, wineries and the Georgetown Square are less than a 10 minute drive. There is a private pool (unheated) and perfect for the warm summer days in Texas.

What makes this property unique

Please note, minimum age of person booking this property is 25 years old and no guests under 15 are allowed, due to the swimming pool not having a lifeguard. Swim at your own risk.

We have a Ring security camera located at the exterior front entrance overlooking the driveway.
