About this property

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.

Lovely and relaxing stay

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.

Family Vacation

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.

8/10 Good

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
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.

Peaceful Weekend Getaway

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!!!
