Rustic 80-year old classic country cabin with lots of charm and tons of amenities. Sleeps up to 10 (more or less), total of 8 beds including a queen sleeper sofa in secondary bedroom. Dining room table inside house can seat 8-9. Large dining table on back screen porch overlooking backyard can seat 10 or more. Two tables on deck can seat 10, for those that like to dine (breakfast, lunch or dinner) ‘al fresco’ outside with the nice country air. Seating area with a few rocking chairs on back screen porch is perfect for coffee in the morning, wine in the evening – or just relaxing with a good book while watching the numerous birds. Backyard has a net for volleyball or badminton, as well as a bocce and horseshoe court … there are also mallets for a nice match of croquet. For parking, there is a private drive and a rustic carport with enough space for 4-6 cars to park here and there. To get down to the private riverfront patios, you can walk down the hill (5 minutes) or drive with floats, kayak paddles, ice chests, etc. (1 minute by car). Down at the river there are 2 river patios, 4 kayaks (more kayaks to come soon) and the beautiful Guadalupe River, which is generally clean-looking and perfect for swimming, floating, tubing, kayaking and just relaxing in the cool water. Oh, and dogs really, really love it! LOL Speaking of dogs, pets are allowed, but of course there are pet rules that must be abided by – namely, no dogs on the neighbor’s property, you must pick up after your dog(s) at all times, and pets are not allowed on any furniture, like, ever. Back up at the cabin, there is a ‘bunkhouse’ which contains all of the river equipment you could possibly want, but you are also welcome to bring your own – be sure to ask what we have. There are also two BBQ grills – one is for charcoal/mesquite, one is an old electric George Foreman. In order to use these grills, you must agree to clean them after use or before departing, out of respect for the next guests and our cleaning lady. Note that inside the house there are only two sofas in the living room area for about 5-6 people, but there are plenty of extra chairs and many other sitting areas. Also note that for now there is only one shower – a second shower will be added soon, but so far in over 80 years of this house being in our family the one shower has never been an issue, nor has it for any guests. The kitchen is fully loaded with almost all of the spices, condiments, utensils and appliances that you can think of, so you really only need to bring your food, and that’s it. Same with the bathrooms and bedrooms – fully loaded with towels, linens, cleaning supplies, toiletries. And the laundry room is available for your use, as well. Last, but not least, there is a game closet with a number of board games, as well as a DVD player with approx 20-30 movies. Ahhh, and a popcorn maker! Most importantly, though, from our family to yours we would like to see you relax, rest, have fun, laugh, celebrate, eat well and enjoy the beautiful and peaceful nature of the Texas Hill Country! :)

    My family, 2 dogs included, had a wonderful time at this cabin. This felt like a great getaway from work and daily life routine. We walked our way down to the river and had a blast. We were also about 45mins away from Fredericksburg. Secluded enough to enjoy family time. 10/10. Definitely coming back one day!

    The most generous host I’ve ever dealt with and the place is stunning. Photos really do not do it justice. Tons of stuff to do, easy to get to, and gorgeous scenery all around. We will absolutely be back, and cannot wait!

    The house was cool and comfy. There was every cooking aid, pot, dish spice needed. The host was very nice, and offered an extended stay. There were plenty of dog toys, extra food, an opportunity to feed the resident birds.., thumbs up.

    We rented the Casita during our grandson's baseball tournament in Kerrville. The house was very comfortable for all of us, the beds were amazing, and they have anything you can need to make your stay enjoyable. My sixteen-year-old grandson even managed to google how to make cookies without eggs and made them just out of the pantry staples they had on hand for our use. We really enjoyed the screened patio and the open deck on the back of the house. As far as being pet friendly, they had plenty of stuff for the dogs as well, toys, extra bowls, tie downs in the yard, the dogs had a great visit. We will definitely try to book again in the warmer months so that we can utilize the river and river patio. Tom the owner is very easy to work with and was very helpful if we had any issues or questions. Lori is the housekeeper for this property, and she does a great job of keeping up with everything, she is pretty amazing.

    My husband and I took our teenage kids this past weekend for a little weekend family getaway. We've been to this area several times and have stayed at other places. We had a wonderful weekend away and made so many great memories in such a small window of time. The host has thought of everything and left no stone unturned when it comes to their guests. We spent lots of time outdoors playing badminton, horseshoes, and going kayaking. Our evenings were spent by a campfire talking and laughing. This rental far exceeded our expectations and we will definitely be returning to this little slice of heaven in Ingram.

    Our crew loved our time at this sweet classic cabin! All the charm and comfort you could ask for and a truly hospitable host. We kept commenting all weekend that we felt like we would be best friends with the host because their cabin felt so perfect in all the ways that mattered to us. Also, this is the CLEANEST pet friendly VRBO I have ever stayed in.

    My family and I stayed here and could not be happier with this place! The place was large enough to fit a mix of kids and adults without issue, and the price river access cannot be beat. This house has everything you could possibly need, including an ice cream maker. The host is as nice as they come and I'm sure we will be back in the future.

    First of all you cannot find a better host than Tom! He's absolutely thought of everything for your stay. Everywhere you look there is something available for you including water, cooking supplies, first aid, toiletries, river toys and so much more! It was an absolute pleasure. He made us feel like we were family. The rooms are comfortable. The house is precious and wonderfully decorated. There's plenty of space and seating for our large family. The river front is lovely as well and a bunkhouse full of all the things you could imagine.. water shoes, life vests, inflatables, water toys... And, when you're ready to explore, Tom gives you a list of restaurants and events in Kerrville and the surrounding areas. No need to do a ton of research before you go either. As a mom of 4, this made our vacation so easy. We didn't have to pack much for each kid (there are two sets of washer and dryers with detergent!) and we picked up curbside from HEB. Couldn't have been easier! THANK YOU TOM for making our family vacation a BREEZE!! It was just the recharge we needed.. Forever gratelful 3

    Wonderful communication with Tom! FIVE stars through & through. Home was clean, kitchen was stocked, plenty of games for our teenagers. We enjoyed s’more‘s by the campfire. Tom had ideal local restaurant recommendations. The trail to the riverfront was peaceful. Enjoyed the nature. Great stay, highly recommend!

    The property had many indoor and outdoor games to entertain yourself with. My family of 6 and our dog went for 5 days and we were very comfortable. We went during cold weather so we did not get in the river but they had plenty of floaties, kayaks and fun toys for the river. Very pet friendly. Our children enjoyed the closet with puzzles and games, the badminton, hammocks, smores by the fire and exploring by the river. They had many things available for you from kitchen supplies to laundry. I would recommend!
