About this property

Quiet Hill-Country Get-A-Away For Families/Small Groups. Winter Texans Welcome!

Beautiful, well-furnished 2-bedroom, 2-bath cabin (actually a house with a cozy cabin feel) in the Texas Hill Country just outside of New Braunfels, Texas and minutes away from the historic town of Gruene, the quaint town of Wimberley and the famous outlet shops in San Marcos. Also only an hour away from the larger cities of Austin and San Antonio.

Our property offers a quiet, serene get-a-way with over 400 feet of frontage along the cold and refreshing Guadalupe River. Included with your stay are complimentary sit-on-top kayaks, paddle boats, tubes and SUP's (Stand Up Paddleboards). All the popular lake activities (sailing, jet skiing, etc) available just down the road on Canyon Lake. All modern conveniences including central ac/heat, cable TV and wireless internet. Indoor fireplace and covered outdoor seating area with fireplace and gas grill. Great place for fun in the sun during the summer months and an exceptionally serene retreat during our moderate-weathered winter months. Winter Texans are always welcome and be sure to contact us for special discounted rates for stays of 30 days or more.

FYI, our cabin is very nicely furnished, but is not huge. Although we can actually sleep 10 people in the 5 available queen-size beds (2 in each bedroom and a sofa sleeper in the living room), it can get a bit cramped at times with larger groups, depending on how "cozy" you want to be. Although we have had several groups of 8-10 people who have enjoyed their stay, it is our opinion that six is the most that can fit "comfortably" in our cabin. Of course, we have plenty of room outside for entertaining.

Great spot on the Guadalupe River!

Had a great weekend away with the family, including 2 teenagers. Great place for paddling around on kayaks and SUPs, and for fishing. Water is cold on this stretch of the river! The beds were comfortable, and we enjoyed grilling out, dining, playing games, and watching the basketball game on the covered porch. And the hosts are super nice and welcoming!

Beautiful and well-appointed cabin!

My husband and I stayed for our anniversary weekend. The cabin was absolutely beautiful, perfectly decorated and very well appointed inside. The property was immaculate and the access to the river was fantastic. The owners offered to have water equipment available for us and my husband used the kayak launch which was really neat. This is by far the very best property I’ve ever rented through VRBO!

Peaceful and cozy

Loved this place. Cabin is very clean, well equipped, full size appliances, comfortable and tastefully decorated. It is surrounded by cedars and oaks, very private. The owners live just down the road but respected our privacy. They are very gracious hostess’s. They provided a bag of ice in freezer, firewood for the fireplace, and as many k cups for the Kuerug we wanted.

A great Hill Country weekend!

A wonderful and cozy cabin with the perfect Hill Country feel! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay on the river, with the kids delighted to wake up each morning to the site of deer outside the cabin windows. The hosts are very kind and went out of their way accommodating our family. A great place to stay!

About the host

Hosted by Ralph Voss

Host profile image
I'm an ex-civil engineer who was lucky enough to have this beautiful property passed down to me by prior generations of my family. I have spent most of my life trying to find a way to make this property my full-time home. Finally, after marrying my beautiful Argentine wife, Analia, we decided to build the rental cabin in 2007 so we could enjoy and share this one-of-a-kind property with others. Ana and I both are very active recreational athletes who love to bike, swim, hike and run. Ana is currently a nine-time Ironman finisher with plans for more in the future.

Why they chose this property

This property has been in my family since the late 1950's. With our personal home on site, we decided to build the rental cabin in 2007 so we could share this beautiful, unique slice of heaven with others.

What makes this property unique

The combination of the beautiful outdoor setting with the modern, fully-equipped amenities of our luxurious cabin offers both the opportunity for quiet rest and relaxation as well as fun activities and sports on the river. The fall and winter months are particularly peaceful and a great time to enjoy both our indoor and outdoor fireplaces. And with ample shopping, dining and entertainment choices just minutes away you can rest assured you will never be bored during your stay!
