About this property

El Castell + El Castellito - on the Llano River (Sleeps 26+)

Enjoy the scenic beauty of the Hill Country at "El Castell" + "El Castellito"!

Nestled along the banks of the spring-fed Llano River we provide 4 cabins plus one 4-bedroom house sleeping 26+ (10 Bedrooms)

We are located next door to the charming Castell General Store where you can enjoy great beers and one of the best burgers in Texas!

River swims, hikes, fly fishing, hunting for topaz, llanite, quartz, exploring hill country towns await!

If you are looking for a quiet remote place to get away, this is the place! Bring your bikes, kayaks (or you can rent ours!), fly rods/fishing poles and relax + enjoy.

Next door and across the street from the Castell General Store -- make sure you drop in and get yourself a cold beer and 3/4 lb burger (Best Burger in Texas, promise!). They jokingly call it "Luckenbach by the Llano River" according to an article written by Texas Monthly...so come for a few days or longer and really decompress, relax and breathe in the beautiful Texas Hill Country air or watch shooting stars streak across the sky.

With this booking, you will have access to both properties on 4-acres including our beautiful spring-fed Llano River waterfront and the privacy therein.

We provide 4 cabins and a 4-bedroom house: The main cabins, which we call "Main House", are less than 75 feet from the riverfront and are connected by a large breezeway deck with each cabin a total of 952 sq. ft. each. These are Cabins C & D.

We also have 2 individual cabins offset out front (closer to the road) that are also completely self-sufficient at 427 sq. ft. each. These are Cabins A & B.

Our newest addition is a house across the road from the cabins of El Castell where we provide a 4-bedroom abode with a very large backyard and everything you might need for lawn games or just a large family gathering.

Don't forget to rent Kayaks or Bikes for the entirety of your stay!

Why they chose this property

If you get one chance to show someone what Texas is all about, you go to the Texas Hill Country. But the Hill Country is a 25-county region, far too large to see in one day. So you’ve got to focus on the best part of the Hill Country, Castell Texas. It’s isolated. There’s a river for fishing or kayaking, and the landscape is in pristine condition. It’s the water, the wildlife, the wide-open spaces, the hills, and the granite. And it’s all in Castell, on the Llano River.

The Llano River is a spring-fed stream of the Edwards Plateau and is widely known for its scenic beauty and home to the Guadalupe Bass, the Texas state fish. Sometimes referred to as the "Texas Trout" because of its fondness for faster flowing water and its fighting ability when hooked. (TPWD also stock 2500+ Rainbow trout in the winter months).

The stone here is scientifically proven to be older than the dinosaurs and you can’t help but feel a recharge from what is referred to as the Llano Uplift. An ancient geological phenomenon where many Native Americans chose to settle and later a group of Germans called the society of freethinkers. To this day, some of the descendants reside in the area.

At night, you’ll get distracted by shooting stars as you stare into the middle of the Milky Way. And although maybe seven people live there, you’ll feel right at home at the Castell General Store. And, when you have to show someone your ideal version of Texas, tell them you’re going to Castell. And when they ask, “What’s Castell?”, you don’t have to tell them anything. Show them your pictures of the river in a canoe or kayak and then end the day in rocking chairs under the sky.

That will be your answer.

P.S. Castell now has the distinction of being the oldest surviving settlement in Llano County.
