As you step inside, you are immediately drawn to the remarkable spiral staircase that gracefully connects each floor. It's a sight to behold, setting the tone for the unique charm found throughout the home. And just outside the lower level, you'll find the delightful addition of a cowboy pool, perfect for a refreshing dip or soaking up the Texas sun.

The main floor also hosts the primary bedroom, which features a King-size bed and abundant natural light. Its attached full bath and convenient washer and dryer make it a tranquil sanctuary for relaxation.

Venture downstairs, and you'll discover an efficiency apartment with its own entrance. It boasts a bedroom adorned with rustic decor and a stone fireplace. Here, guests can enjoy privacy and comfort, with the added convenience of a full bath and direct access to the cowboy pool just steps away from the lower-level queen bedroom.

Ascending to the third floor, you'll find additional bedrooms offering cozy accommodations for guests. In bedroom three, you'll find a twin over full bunk bed and a twin daybed, and bedroom four hosts a comfortable king bed; each room exudes charm and warmth. Plus, the loft area boasts a kitchenette, providing a secluded retreat for unwinding after a day of adventure.

Outside, Rock's River Retreat continues to impress, with direct access to the tranquil waters of the Guadalupe River. Relax on the deck, gather around the fire pit, or soak in the peaceful ambiance of this idyllic setting.

Wonderful house, Great location!
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed the house! We enjoyed the peaceful views of the river, the quiet at night, and the location in the middle of Hill Country! Will gladly rebook the next time we are heading down that way.

3.5 Stars. Get what you pay for. Nice for a River house.
Overall the house is nice. There is a lot that needs to be done to the property in my opinion to be 4 stars or more. But for a River house where most people just need a place to sleep, in checks the boxes.

Great house plan
This house is set up with bed/bath/partial kitchen on each floor. Also if it rains, it has a large outdoor covered area under the house with games, TV, plenty to keep everyone busy! The house management company could not have been nicer. We will definitely rent again.

Perfect Hill Country Weekend
The house location is fantastic given we were going to see a concert at Whitewater Amphitheater and to hang out on the river. The kitchen was well stocked and we bought steaks form a local farm to grill. Would 10/10 stay here again for a lake/river fun weekend.

We loved the location without a lot of traffic floating past. The house fit our family needs perfectly. The outside had everything we could have asked for…seating, games, fire pit, and good access to the river.

An amazing getaway!
We loved spending a long weekend in this beautiful river home. It was very relaxing and the house is very clean and comfortable and the owners have a lot of attention to their guests. We loved sitting outdoors and enjoying the birds and the water. We would definitely recommend this home and hope to return again.
