About this property

Porter's Tree Haus, Exclusive Private Riverfront @Vacation Frio River

Welcome to your new favorite retreat on the Frio River!
This phenomenal, spacious 3,600 sqft home has everything you need to have the best vacation on the river, and feel right at home.

This home features 5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and 2 half-baths; it now sleeps 33 people! The great room is stunning, fully-furnished with inspiration from King Ranch, giant 5" thick native Pecan counter tops (which are handmade by the owner) and a fully-stocked kitchen and bar area.

The kitchen has 2 full-sized refrigerator/freezers, a commercial gas oven/stove combo, large walk-in pantry, plenty of cabinetry/storage space and all the utensils, kitchenware and dishes you need.

You will be blown away by this tree haus. Not only do you have everything inside the home, but outside you have your own HUGE covered porch, an 18’ jetted cool spa, and an outdoor kitchen space! Porter's features its own grand porch looking directly at the Frio River! The porch is equipped with a huge outdoor fireplace, plenty of couches/seating, 3 large dining tables—and don’t forget— a 18’ jetted cool whirlpool spa overlooking a beautiful view!

We allow you to park right on the river's edge with your vehicle for tailgating and watching the thousands of folks float right past our private riverfront shore.
Guests love our private river access! This keeps you out of the hustle and bustle of River Road, and only 200' away from your room!
One of our great features here at VacationFrioRiver is that we offer a complimentary tube shuttle service in our fully air-conditioned modified airport shuttle bus!
We will gladly drop your party off at Seven Bluffs Crossing for a 2-3 hour float that ends Right At Our Private Riverfront! You'll be back in time for lunch!

Last minute plans? Need more guest rooms? Our property manager can work with you to schedule some of our other suites to combine with this home to suit your group's needs!

Bed sheets, protective pillowcases are provided in this rental. Please note that we do NOT provide towels!

Unfortunately, pets are NOT allowed in this home.

[During the months of October-April, the cool whirlpool spa for this home is not in service, however we offer a grand 14x23’ pool with water feature, shared by guests in the off-season only. From Memorial Day-Labor Day (peak season), the 18’ cool whirlpool spa is in service, for private use by guests of Porter’s Tree Haus and the 14x23’ pool becomes exclusive to guests of another one of our luxurious homes, Haggville Hacienda.]

We offer Smart TVs and high-speed fiber internet in all of our homes!

Expect southern hospitality here; our reviews speak for themselves!
We are a small resort, privately owned since 1960 that is rapidly becoming well-known on the Frio for our at-home comforts and excellent guest service.

What a cool spot!
A large group of us stayed here for the eclipse. Donny was totally accessible and helpful and added a lot to our visit. We were all thankful for his assistance. The property is amazing, the river was lovely. The house itself is interesting and quirky, lots of personality. The one practical tip I’d offer for future guests is to bring absolutely everything you might need food-wise in with you. They don’t supply anything (eg salt and pepper, condiments, etc) and in fairness don’t pretend to. And anyway there are grocery stores and lots of restaurants close by. Overall a great experience, highly recommended!

Wonderful Family Weekend
Just a great place on the river. Indeed being able to walk down to the water easily was a huge plus. Nicely furnished and the owner was happy to help.

Great place for large groups
We had a blast. Place had plenty of privacy despite being close to other units. Golf course was decent. The only thing I would change is the time of year we went. It was incredibly hot and the river was low in late August.

Perfect Spot
Communication prior to arriving was great. Check in process was easy. Their was a small hiccup with the propane the first night but it was fixed as soon as it was possible and did not affect our trip at all. The location was great and loved being able to drive our truck down to the water. The water was super low and we were unable to float but enjoyed the house and hanging out down at the water. Donny was super helpful when needed and the house was gorgeous with everything we needed. Would definitely stay again.

Host profile image
I was born and raised in Kingsville, Texas. After 35 successful years in the Dry Cleaning/Laundry business, I retired and built 2 homes and 7 suites on the same land my mother and father purchased in 1960. Now, the property layout includes 4 spacious, private homes. I spend my summers entertaining and hosting families on the beautiful Frio River. My parents always loved having groups of friends and family enjoy this land for all of my life. Now I get to carry on their dream and help give families an unforgettable vacation experience in this stunning Texas getaway!

Why they chose this property

This property has been in my family estate and owned since 1960. It is one of the last properties on the Frio River with unchanged, undeveloped private riverfront which I enjoyed growing up in the 60's!
My unique architectural style and decorating flair makes my properties breathtakingly elegant, yet cozy with all the amenities of home.
I will be on premises to check your party in, and to see that families get the most fun out of their vacation. Need help? I'm just a call away!

What makes this property unique

One of our great features here at VacationFrioRiver.com is that we offer a complimentary tube shuttle service in our fully air-conditioned modified airport shuttle bus!
We will gladly drop your party off at Seven Bluffs Crossing for a 2-3 hour float that-guess what- ends up right on our Private Riverfront shoreline!
