About this property

Cottage on the Frio River

Drive in or fly in to relax in a cozy 3 bedroom cottage on the Frio River. Yes, we have an air strip for those of you who have the capability of flying in. The views will bring tranquility and you will not want to leave. Enjoy the fire pit on the rock patio that over sees the views of mountains and trees. The river is approximately 200 yards away where you can enjoy swimming or fishing. When not at the river, challenge your friends/family to a game of corn hole or horse shoes. The cottage on the river is a great place to get away from the business of life and to slow down and enjoy the ones that mean the most to you.

***please be aware that during a drought, we have no control over the flow of the river. Our refund policy is posted and it will be followed. **

This property just north of Leakey was charming and peaceful. It was roomy and comfortable for our family of four. It was easy for us to cook dishes for our family reunion we were attending. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals. The back porch was a wonderful place to enjoy morning coffee and a country view. Hosts were responsive and helpful, and concerned about my car when a storm was on its way, possibly with hail. They had me pull it into the nearby barn for safety. That was really appreciated. You will love the tranquility of this property, yet the ease to get into Leakey quickly to enjoy the fun in town and the Frio River!

Cozy and Clean!

Loved the charm of the house but the best part is the view! Plenty of room for a family of 6, and it was nice that each room has access to a sink/toilet. Highly recommend!

Perfect Getaway!

This was exactly what we were needing! The cottage is adorable and private, which we loved. The sunrises and sunsets were breathtaking! We spent hours in the afternoons enjoying the river and I think our dogs enjoyed it more than we did! It was flowing nicely, clear and cold. We love the Frio, it’s always been our happy place! We will be back!

Total paradise!

Quiet, private,peaceful and relaxing- we could not have asked for a nicer setup...everything in the house was comfortable and clean, and lots of nice accommodations plus a well-stocked kitchen and amazing hill country views all around. We truly loved every minute there.

Excellent fly in cabin

Beautiful property, great views, very nice and comfortable cabin. Very convenient right on the airport. The airport is great, good asphalt and good tie down cables. Short walk into town. There was some road noise and shooting going on but it wasn’t bad, still a very peaceful setting .

It was a peaceful place to relax and get away from the city. Beautiful land. Too bad the river in the back was dry but we still enjoyed a day at Garner State Park.

A Great Frio Home Away from Home

This farm house was one of our favorite places we have ever stayed at the Frio. Quiet and relaxing yet close to the float. The screen doors and beautiful views with a great layout and very comfortable. We all fell in love with the character and views of this house. Loved the land to wander on.

Great Family River Trip!

We enjoyed our stay with 6 adults, 2 babies, and 2 dogs. The private river access was great. We enjoyed the firepit and hot tub also. Having a fenced yard was great for the dogs. Being right by the airport was neat. We saw a few planes and a gyrocopter! The owners were very friendly and communicative.

Our favorite little getaway spot

We absolutely love this cottage! We have rented it 3 times now and it is perfect. I really wish it had a washer and dryer that is really the only thing that it needs. The property is great! We love coming each summer.

Quiet, peaceful getaway!

We loved our stay! The view from the back porch was phenomenal and we ended up spending most of our time there relaxing. The house was very clean, our dogs enjoyed the fenced yard, beds were comfortable. The property is just on the outskirts of town, so you feel like you’re away from it all but close enough to town to get your necessities. You’re minutes away from Garner State Park and some gorgeous drives. Definitely would stay again!

Cute little cabin, great getaway

This property was perfect for our family (dad, mom, and 4 kids ages 15 through 4, and goldendoodle). Great location, close proximity to Garner where we went two nights for the dance. We also spent a couple afternoons there since the river was low on the property but nothing anyone can do about that. Great getaway to unplug and reconnect!

Nice stay

We enjoyed our stay in this historic cottage. It was comfortable for 3 adults and two elementary age children. The view is great- sitting on the porch in the swing is perfect for morning coffee. Plenty of seating on porch and patio/fireplace area. Kitchen is adequate and charcoal grill makes meals easy.. Stargazing is spectacular!

My family and I spent a few nights for New Year's. This is a beautiful place, the entire area is amazing, the view is awesome, couldn't have asked for more! My family and I loved the cottage, all clean, comfortable, safe, the response to our needs was immediate and friendly. We have stayed at other cabins in the area in the past, but this one will now be our favorite place to stay; we are already planning our next vacation time there again.

Great vacation cabin!

The cabin was just as described. We had 7 in our group and everyone had enough room, the beds were comfortable and the back porch had fantastic views. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our food. The dishwasher need to be screwed in tight, and there were a few boards on the porch that need replacing , but other than that
