Guadalupe Retreat| 3BR Riverfront Stay Near Boerne
🌊 Riverfront | 🐾 Pet Friendly | 🛁 Hot Tub | 👥 Sleeps 7 | ⏰ Free Early Check-In (when available) | 📱 Free Hill Country Travel App
** Access to the river requires walking down a paved asphalt road from the home. The road is steep, and some guests may find the walk challenging. Please review the property photos for additional information, or contact us with any questions prior to booking.
Fishing, swimming, and canoeing are all instantly available to you, thanks to a private Guadalupe River frontage, and you're set for tubing, too (contact Bergheim Campground and River Outfitters in Boerne for more info on floats. Activities are seasonal, and water levels are based on rain). The property is at the end of the road, with no neighbors near this private Hill Country getaway, just wide-open countryside! If the shopping or night life bugs should bite, Bandera and Boerne are just a short drive away.
A shaded porch offers great views of the river and the terrain beyond, and the property is populated with both deer and birds; the latter love to visit the numerous feeders here. Along with patio furniture and a fire pit, there are two porch swings-one on the deck, the other on the river's bank. Ample parking is available for your vehicles.
The "wow factor" inside starts with over 50 linear feet of windows encircling the living area, inviting the beauty of the outdoors, indoors. There's ample seating in the living, seating and dining areas. The huge kitchen features modern appliances, cookware and serving ware, and there's also a washer/dryer combo. Three comfy bedrooms sleep up to seven: a king and a single day bed in the master; a queen in the second bedroom; and two singles in the third. All bed and bath linens are provided, with two full baths: the master features a jacuzzi and shower, the second has a shower/tub combo. There is also an additional half-bath. Central A/C and heat keep the house comfortable, and there's a smart satellite TV and DVD player for you to enjoy.
The views, the perks, the awesome waterfront location alongside a popular river—these factors, and so many more, make the Guadalupe River Retreat an incredible private Hill Country hideaway! Touch base with us at Backroads Hill Country, and we'll happily help you book this Lone Star gem.
Note: the paved drive and area leading to the river can be steep for some guests. Good footwear is required. Please contact us for details.

The house was fantastic! Everything was immaculately clean and well maintained. The views of the river and surrounding area are spectacular with easy access to the river itself. We had a wonderful trip and look forward to returning.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Guadalupe River Retreat house. It was roomy, clean and the view was excellent. Everything we needed was there and the host checked on us after we arrived to see if there was anything we needed.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re glad you enjoyed the cleanliness, comfort, and quiet of the house, as well as the amazing location. We’ll pass along your kind words to our property manager. We would love to host you again!
The best hill country property at which I've stayed. Conveniently close to Boerne, yet also providing peaceful solitude. The property has a river-facing brace of windows that allows contemplation of a pristine stretch of the Guadalupe River. An outstanding place to stay.

Thank you for your glowing review! We're thrilled you enjoyed your stay and the serene surroundings.
We have stayed here before and it’s a perfect place to relax, read a book, and wet a line. Enjoyed the fall colors and the wildlife too.

Thank you for the wonderful review! We're so glad you enjoyed your stay once again and had the chance to relax, enjoy the fall colors, and see the wildlife. We look forward to hosting you again!
We had a great time during our stay. It was remarkably quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed watching the birds and the Axis herd that came through almost every morning.
We had a great time. The only problem was that we had hoped that we would have been able to go down to the river at our rental property; however the trail down was much too steep and access to the river was not possible.

Thank you for your feedback! We're glad you had a great time overall. We’re sorry the river access wasn’t what you expected and will look into how we can better communicate that for future guests.
The house is spectacular and the views are amazing. The privacy offered a wonderful, secluded setting. The house was exceptionally clean and stocked with all the needed items such as pots, pans, toiletries, and the like. It was beautifully furnished and decorated. The hosts were quick to respond and very accommodating. The ad stated a 3-pet limit, but when we asked to bring our 4th fur baby, the hosts quickly obliged. We also asked if a later check out was possible. Since no one was immediately checking in, they gave us until 1:00 p.m. to check out! Couldn't ask for more!The only real downside was access to the river. "Please be sure to watch your footing on the approach to the Guadalupe, for it can be steep" was listed under one photo. This was the only place it was mentioned and greatly understates the access. It was extremely steep and difficult to navigate. Even our children in their mid 40's who are both slim and in shape had a difficult time. As we're both 70, we didn't even attempt it. Due to the recent heavy rains, the river was flowing nicely, so that wasn't a factor. It was just steep and quite a distance away. While full disclosure might not have dissuaded our booking, a clearer understanding might have avoided the disappointment.

Thank you for sharing your experience! We're thrilled you enjoyed the views and had a wonderful time.
Loved the property. The walk down to the river was too steep for us but the sounds of te water running was a nice soundtrack to relaxing on the deck and watching the birds and the deer. The house was spotless and well appointed. Great kitchen and living area. Will definitely be back!

Thank you for the great review! We're so glad you loved the property and enjoyed the peaceful sounds of the river, birds, and deer. It's great to hear that the house was well-suited for your stay. We look forward to welcoming you back soon!
We absolutely loved this home and the proximity to the river! It was so peaceful to make a fire in the fire pit at night, and listen to the birds in the morning. We had a minor issue in the home when we arrived, and we received prompt and helpful attention. Everything was just beautiful and well cared for. We would definitely stay here again.
Fantastic! Beautiful home. We loved listening to the river from the porch and watching wildlife, including White-tailed and axis deer, wild turkeys, and a bobcat. We heard birds not common where we live: canyon wren, screech owl, etc. We hope to visit again with family.
Great property, everything we needed in this wonderful home!
Thank You so Much for sharing it! Right on the river, open living, the two decks were wonderful!
We watched the most beautiful rain storm over the ridge of the river!
Don't hesitate rent now!
This house was more than I thought it was going to be. It was just perfect for the weekend getaway myself, husband, kids and dogs needed. The view is so serene and the house was beautiful. At night we enjoyed sitting by the fire pit and listening to the sounds of nature. Spencer was always so responsive with any questions we had. We cannot wait to rent this house again this summer. Thank you for everything!!!
