Outstanding place for a leadership retreat

This place is just as good, if not better, than the pictures and the write-ups. So much to do on site with the pool and hot tub and all the games. We loved the shuffleboard and the ping pong table. Great view of the sunset and the outdoor tables were great for eating as a group.

Peaceful and Relaxing

This is a beautiful place great for large groups. The deer came out each morning and evening. We enjoyed lots of porch time and the outdoor kitchen was great for grilling. It is very secluded and a little hard to find especially at night. Overall we had an amazing time and made lots of memories.

Birthday Getaway

We had five families stay at this property and it comfortably accommodated everyone. The kids thoroughly enjoyed the game room and spent the majority of their time there. Our favorite part was sitting on the back porch late at night telling jokes or waking up in the morning to watch the sunrise. Can't wait to visit again!

Great Escape from the city

Property is very nice; loved that it was 1 story since we had older parents that have a hard time climbing stairs. Everyone had their own private suite with in suite bathroom. Plenty of room too spread out. Liked the location easy to get to near by attractions.

Relaxing, fun and peaceful retreat!

Rim Rock Lodge is absolutely amazing! We came here with our family of 13 for a summer vacation and enjoyed every minute. The main (single story) house is spacious and comfortable. Great accommodations! The pool was refreshing and stayed cool even in August. We all enjoyed the multiple outdoor patios and porches. Plenty of shade and breathtaking views! The kids and adults had fun in the game room/media room. Close proximity to all the shops and restaurants in Wimberley. It has been a fantastic stay - we hope to be back!

Absolutely Magnificent!

We had an amazing time at this property. It has everything you could want for a vacation! We were a small group for the size of this house, but I wanted somewhere where we could stay and have everything in one place, and this was perfect! We were lucky enough to get a two day stay but I would have stayed longer, if possible. It was hard to leave! This is a great house I would recommend it to anyone interested in hosting a get together, reunion, event, family vacation...etc. I will be checking the availability for a future stay here, in the future! Thanks!

Great Place for our Annual Family Weekend

This property was an awesome choice for our yearly multi generation family getaway. We had 6 adults and 5 active boys ages 5-13 for a 3 night stay. The swimming pool, game room, media room, workout room, disc golf and pool table were enjoyed by all. The one story home layout with numerous bedrooms and bathrooms was great. We also loved the large dining table for family meals and card games. The well appointed large kitchen made for easy meal preparation. When needed, communicating with the property manager was prompt and helpful. Great family memories were made at Rim Rock Ranch and we hope to stay again sometime.

SPECTACULAR HOME & VIEW

WOW!!!! RRL is an AMAZING home and property. We rent a lot of FABULOUS homes for our family vacations and this one did not disappoint!! It was perfect for our family of 15. 8 adults and 7 kids ages 16 months to 6 1/2. It was very spacious, beautifully decorated, & completely stocked with everything we needed. The pool was completely fenced in which gave us peace of mind with all of the littles running around. We really enjoyed the Game Room and Movie theatre too . We did not leave the property at all, everything we needed was right there. Can't wait to rent again.

We are a family with 6 adults and 4 children ages 8-15 and the RR Lodge had something for everyone....pool, spa, sauna, AWESOME game room, home theater, grilling area, fire pit, disc golf … We enjoyed it all! Loved all of the covered patio space and sitting in the rockers enjoying our morning coffee and drinking in the beautiful hill country views!! The kitchen is spacious and had everything we needed to prepare our meals....we never left the lodge! Finally, at the end of the day we were all able to have our own space with our own bathrooms and sleep in the incredibly comfortable beds!! We would love to plan a repeat trip in the future!!

We had a family reunion and it was loved by everyone. The house has everything you could ever need! The beds were all very comfortable...the showers were all multi headed (one had a steamer which was super neat!!) The kitchen is well stocked with large skillets, cookware, etc for a large group.

Gorgeous House

Rim Rock is a gorgeous house that is well built for a group holiday like ours. We were able to celebrate my mom's 70th birthday in this gorgeous property and space. We enjoyed the beautiful pool, hot tub, sauna, and game room particularly. The view is unforgettable. One of the bushes in the front yard had hummingbirds each morning. It is also convenient to Wimberley and San Marcos. Only items that were not five stars were the cleanliness of the pool and hot tub, both had some debris at the bottom (there were a lot of storms/rain). We also had some navigation issues (not hosts fault but something to think about) with both Google Maps and Waze unnecessarily directing us through an unwelcoming neighborhood nearby. Overall would happily visit again!

Perfect home for large families!

This home is fabulous! In lieu of gifts for Christmas’24, we decided to do a family trip, and this property suited the needs of our 17 member family quite nicely. It was clean, but a really deep clean is due soon. (Light fixtures, blinds, under furniture, etc…) Also, the sectional in the living room needs replaced. It has been very “well loved” and isn’t worthy of this magnificent home. We loved the layout of the house, the extra space in the game room, and of course, the view that all the reviews raved about! It was a little too chilly to swim, but that didn’t stop several family members from doing a “polar plunge” and then a nice soak in the large hot tub. The kitchen was VERY well stocked as far as small appliances, cookware, and utensils. We had everything we needed. A couple of things that you need to bring because they aren’t provided are kleenex and dryer sheets or fabric softener, The only other negative we would have is that the bathroom attached to the room next to the Master had a problem with the toilet. The first night, we heard the toilet “run” every 4 1/2 minutes. We solved it the next night by just turning the valve off at bedtime and back on in the morning. All in all, this beautiful home is highly recommended by our family, & while it’s beginning to show its age just a bit, we would absolutely stay here again! One other plus- Shiloh did a wonderful job with communication! We appreciated it so much!

Beautiful view

We had a wonderful time at this house. It looks newer on the website. You can tell it is rented quite a lot. A few repairs would enhance it greatly, such as, fixing the back door opening to the porch. The back door is difficult to keep closed. The door to the game room sticks and is hard to open. The ice machine in the pool room produces about 3 or 4 cubes at a time. The ice maker on the refrigerator did not work. Guests should be told to bring ice. Overall the property was wonderful. The pool was terrific and we loved the long porch and rocking chairs. The view is amazing! We would definitely return!

About the host

Hosted by Shiloh Collins

Host profile image
Peggy and Phil Collins bought this land in 2008 and starting building in about September of that year. We finished the house in March of 2009 and then spent about 6 months completing all of the outdoor living projects. The house was Built by Bill Dunn Construction and the house was built to the highest quality standards that you can imagine. We feel that we have really created something special and are sure that you will feel the same way that we do. This is our third vacation property in the Wimberley/San Marcos area and we are really excited about what we have accomplished. The photo is of Peggy and I in Shanghai in May of 2009.

Why they chose this property

Once you see the view from the back porch, or from the covered pavilion, or from the hot tub, or the sauna, or anywhere in the back yard, there will be no question as to why we decided on this location. The two comments that we hear from everyone are, 'That is a MILLION DOLLAR VIEW' or 'THAT is THE BEST view in Wimberley and/or Hays County'. Come see for yourself.

What makes this property unique

Why is this property so successful?
* The Number One Reason for Success at all of our properties is that we have very large homes that allow large groups or families to all be together, but everything is SPREAD OUT so that you are not underfoot all the time, and can still have privacy in your large group.
* Million dollar view.
* Private estate allows peace and quiet.
* High end luxury in the construction and furnishings.
* 3 fireplaces, hot tub, sauna, firepit.
* Full outdoor kitchen and covered pavilion.
* 11 TVs with cable and premium channels.
* 6 basket disc golf course
* A pool area nicer than most resorts.
* Fully furnished with everything you need.
* Incredible Game Room and 3 tiered Theater Room with 9 leather lay out seats.

The Main Reason for our Success - is that Peggy and I built this for our families use. We made it nice for us, and now everyone can share in this. This property is big enough to accommodate a large group, but allows so many places for people to be, that you are not crowded or bumping into each other. The new game room is a great addition to this property, and we are very excited about it. Thank you for considering Rim Rock Lodge, and we are confident that it will be a great decision for you.
