NO GROUP PARTIES, NO EXCEPTIONS, this cabin is for a couple or a couple with kids. NO EXTRA GUESTS for the day to BBQ, it is just for the 2 people who rent it, plus their little kids. It is not for 4 adults.

Come sit on the 400 SF dock of our Sliver Of The River on Lake Placid in Mcqueeney Texas! Fish or Kayak (river is low (no jumping off of dock) for dam repairs but we have added a ladder for access to swim and cleared vegetation so there is kayak access under the dock) or just snooze in the hammock. Large park like yard for kids/dogs to run around. (No fence though.) Up to 2 dogs under 50 pounds are allowed, must be listed and deposit paid. We have the cabin deep cleaned after each pet stay. Have dinner with a beautiful view of the river from the picnic table after you cook on the charcoal BBQ pit.
We are located 35 miles from the River Walk in San Antonio and 62 miles from Austin.

( Slope down to the river is rather steep and may challenge some folks walking back up.)

Great time, great location

My fiancée and i had a great time. It felt very private, even with a wedding reception going on next door. The separation between properties allowed their fun didn't distract our night. Great scenery. We spent most of our time just relaxing in the back porch. We enjoyed it very much. We wanted to rebook another stay before we left. We loved it.

Beautiful Place

The property was very beautiful on the river with a nice sturdy dock. Cabin was exactly what we were looking for. Clean, modern appliances with a big porch and a covered barbecue area with hammocks. All and all one of the best rentals we have seen from Vrbo. Would definitely recommend it.

Anniversary weekend

Really loved this little cottage! Very private and Peaceful. It's perfect for a couples weekend with room for a couple of children. Close to alot of activities. Less than 30 minutes to Gruene/New Braunsfel. We went to the rodeo and steakhouse in Bulverde on Saturday night. It was a little less than an hour away. This would be a really good spot during the summer with the Guadalupe in the back yard. We will definitely stay again.

Second time as good as the first…

I stayed in April and could not wait to get back. This is truly an amazing property. It was perfect for relaxing, fishing, and just getting away. I would recommend for a romantic get away or a small family trip. The host was very accommodating.

Sliver on the River

I loved the early check and late check out. This place exceeded my expectations of a small cabin. It was cozy and perfectly laid out. The back porch to the fire pit to the dock by the water was so accessible and easy to get to. The home has great communication and so available if you need ANYTHING while staying at the cabin. I will mostly definitely returning to this cozy spot!

Fun for everyone with really thoughtful hosts!

There were so many little touches and small details at this property, that it really stood out because of how thoughtful the owners are. The place was so clean, cute, and comfy! It had everything we needed and was a lot of fun. I will say the photos make it look very secluded but that is not the case. There is only a fence on one side and the rest is wide open with several other properties and docs very close. We got lucky that no one else was really around this past weekend as we wouldn’t have been able to let our dogs roam free had other people been around. The porch and outside amenities are amazing, and Segin close by is super cute.

Awesome find on the river!

This was an awesome spot! The cabin was big enough to accommodate a family that spent 10 hours of our days outside. The yard and the trees were impressive to say the least! A couple 100+ year old Cypress right next the dock offered all day shade that was greatly appreciated during the summer days. The property and street were so quiet, it was amazing to come back from a long day at Schlitterbahn to a quiet property and enjoy the river night with the family. Great accommodations by the owners as well. I’ve saved this property and we plan on coming back.

Relaxing Weekend

Stayed the weekend here with my boyfriend who loves to fish. Chose this site because it was one of the only ones I could find with private dock access. The cabin itself is on the smaller side, but it is set up very well and had everything we need. The outdoor section covers two lots and felt so spacious. We spent a lot of time outside by the fire pit. We could tell the owners put a lot of thought and detail into making it a great experience. It was hard to leave, and we will definitely return to stay again in the future. Thanks for a perfect weekend!

Tranquil Getaway!

Just 5 mins off I-10 and yet very peacefully situated on the Guadalupe River! Yeah, the road going in passed some not-so-promising adventure (railroad facility)…but once you turn in to property it’s a whole new world! The cabin is well thought out, furnished explicitly and the little touches they made is what impressed me…like the All-Clad skillets, stainless steel mixing bowls, and even a digital thermometer for grilling! (But, I’m a kitchen guy and an 80 yr old Marine who loves cooking & grilling). Great view when you wake up for coffee on the patio or down by the water…or, an evening cookout at the covered picnic area with charcoal grill and a string of patio lights! Like I said, everything was well thought out! I was even able to use my own Netflix account to watch some old classic movies! My rescue/service dog Lily simply loved the place as well…and was welcomed! Great place, great owners, and great location! BTW..someone commented that, “it isn’t exactly The Hilton!”…and, they were right…I’ve stayed at Hilton’s all over the world…and this is BETTER! Enjoyed our 4 days in Almost Heaven!

Beautiful Getaway!

My family of four stayed for a weekend and absolutely loved it. The cabin was perfect and so clean. The yard was amazing and the short walk to the dock made mornings great! We caught big catfish and saw lots of wildlife. We absolutely cannot wait to come back! 11/10 recommend!

Cabin Retreat

The place was perfect for a family of four. Cleanliness was A+ and the spaces inside were beautiful. It had that indoor/outdoor living feel with a beautiful view of the Guadalupe River. Plenty of space to run around outside and do outdoors. Definitely a place where you can go to relax, unwind, and get, away from electronics for awhile.

Glamping at it’s finest.

On a visit to the San Antonio area, my daughter asked to stay somewhere “in nature” so we booked this just outside the city. It was very clean and comfortable and the kids had an absolute blast. We had everything we needed for a bbq and the kids were occupied all day fishing, rolling in the hills, and playing badminton. The kids bunkbeds are inside of the main bedroom and we ended up really liking this. Overall a wonderful weekend!

Nice cabin on the Guadalupe

This is a nice very nice cabin. The hosts have literally paid attention to every possible detail when it comes to accommodating their guests’ needs. We are hosts ourselves and we were very impressed. Nice layout, perfect for a couple, or a family of 4. We arrived at night and the very first time It might be tricky to find in the dark. The road will make a zig-zag right over some railroad tracks. Right, then back left and you are right at the driveway. There is a smaller barn/garage in front and the cabin is in plain sight behind it with a Texas flag on the front. No, there were very few trains and they were quiet when they did run. This was definitely NOT an issue. There is a ‘hidden’ bedroom right off the master with discs for clothes and a nice set of bunk beds. Plenty of seating in the main living area with 2 very comfortable reclining sofas. Well equipped kitchen. All appliances and extras (even an air fryer). Very nicely designed bathroom and shower. The back porch is to die for. It is very large, plenty of seating whether you want chairs or a table to eat a meal. The lot appears to be at least an acre - tons of room. Nice picnic/bbq area. Nice dock as well. There are too many amenities to list but trust me, if you want it, the owner probably provides it. I should note that the pictures on this listing honestly are 100% accurate. No photo tricks. And when you get here you’ll be even more impressed. Thanks y’all for a great place to stay! Tracy & Todd

About the host

Hosted by Mike and Kristi Kirby

Host profile image
This is our personal cabin to relax when we can get away from home. We want other people to enjoy it as much as we do. Please treat it like your own home because it is being shared with you as if you are our family.

Why they chose this property

We love boating and once the dam is fixed we will be back on the river teaching grandkids how to ski!

What makes this property unique

It's small so it is the perfect getaway for couples or small families. There is almost an acre of park like yard for kids to run around in. There is poison ivy down next to the river edge so be careful. The light switch for the dock lights are on the electrical panel that is up on the hill facing the dock.
