Situated on 3 private acres, this spacious 3,300-square-foot home is surrounded by towering cypress trees, abundant wildlife, and some of the most desirable river frontage in Wimberley. The crystal-clear, rock-bottom Blanco River flows year-round and is typically calm and shallow, making it an ideal spot for children to splash, explore, and create unforgettable memories.

Inside, the home is bright, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed for gathering. Large windows frame picturesque river views throughout the main living areas, creating a seamless connection between the indoors and outdoors. The fully equipped kitchen features granite countertops, updated tile flooring, and everything needed to prepare meals for the entire group.

The home comfortably accommodates large families and groups with five bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite upstairs and a convenient first-floor bedroom with a queen bed. One of the property's most unique features is the detached game room and guest retreat overlooking the river. Complete with an 8-foot pool table, foosball table, kitchenette, full bathroom, additional sleeping accommodations, and a large 250-square-foot deck, it's the perfect place for friendly competition, morning coffee, or sunset cocktails above the water.

Outside, you'll find endless opportunities to relax and enjoy the Hill Country lifestyle. Spend your days lounging by the fenced swimming pool, soaking in the oversized hot tub, or enjoying outdoor meals beneath the charming gazebo. Bring a chair down to the river, relax beneath the shade of the cypress trees, and listen to the gentle flow of the water as deer wander through the property.

When you're ready to explore, downtown Wimberley is less than five minutes away and offers boutique shopping, art galleries, wineries, breweries, excellent dining, live music, seasonal festivals, and the beloved outdoor movie theater. Whether you're seeking a peaceful riverside getaway or a fun-filled family vacation, this exceptional Blanco River retreat offers an unforgettable Hill Country experience.

    We were a group of 16 and the house was overall very comfortable. We had to childproof the stairs for the 1.5 YO with a baby gate but otherwise the house had most everything that we needed. I have rented this property multiple times and we would stay here again.

    Great property, especially for larger groups. Plenty of space to spread out without being in top of each other. We will definitely book this property again.

    I had a large group with multiple families including 2 of my grandbabies. The space fit all of us and we didnt feel cramped. Each of the couples had their own bathroom (major plus!) Even with everyone talking and the TV on, no one woke the grandbabies . I would highly recommend staying at the great escape! You wont regret it!!

    Three generations of our family, from 1-78 years old enjoyed our long weekend at the Great Escape. The pool, river, game room, and the long porch with the rocking chairs were so appreciated. There was Plenty of seating for meals for the 14 of us. Beds were great. We got to see several deer, ground squirrel, skunk, fox, and raccoon. The kids loved the minnows in the river and our oldest grandson walked to deeper water and caught and released several fish. Thank you for a lovely stay. Ed, Carol, and extended family

    We had a great long weekend at this house. It is in a lovely quiet neighborhood but also so close to town that quick runs to HEB or wherever are very easy. The place is amazing - easy access to the Blanco River out the back door, five bedrooms and four full baths in the main house and another bedroom and full bath in the outbuilding/game room, pool, hot tub, pool table, retro arcade video game, shuffleboard, TVs, outdoor gas grill, comfortable furniture, rocking chairs on the back porch so you can watch the deer wander along the river, two laundry rooms, plenty of towels for the pool and fleecy throws, the list of amenities and thoughtful touches is so long there's no way to list them all. And the property manager Shiloh was so friendly, helpful, responsive, and communicative! We had no issues, but if we had I know she would have fixed them right away. This is the perfect place for a large family or group of friends to get together and have a great time in Wimberley.

    Perfect relaxing get away for our work group. The back porch full of rocking chairs and view of the deer grazing was a perfect ending to a day of meetings.

    The house is very accommodating - lots of beds and a spacious dining area. Between the game room, pool, hot tub and river there is plenty to do. One pre-teen, two teenagers and several adults were all entertained.

    Perfect property for a family get together. Great views, wildlife, proximity to town. Plenty of room indoors and out, highly functional kitchen and the game room/xtra living space was big hit. Feed for the deer was a nice touch. Property manager answered all questions (hot tub controls, trash pickup etc.) very quickly. Great place!

    Stay with a large multigenerational family. This was a wonderful spot, close to town and plenty of amenities to keep everyone (from toddler to grandparent) happy.

    We rented this home for our yearly family vacation and it was excellent. The home is spacious, clean, and beautiful. It was close to downtown Wimberley and about a 20 minute drive to Canyon Lake. The pool was nice and it was great to be able to walk down to the Blanco River behind the property. We were there mid-July and there wasn't a lot of water running through the river but it was fun for the kids to see the little fish, etc. There was also a few families of deer that crossed through the back. The bathrooms appeared to all have been semi-recently remodeled and were super nice. Everyone agreed that we would love to stay here again!
