Famous TX Resort Area!: We are within a 5 mile radius of many private boys and girls camps, and a mile away is Crider’s rodeo and dance hall, a tradition since 1927. The nearby Hunt Store is a familiar landmark in these hills where cowboys and city folk share stories while sitting by a warm fire or eating a delicious meal. Fredericksburg, a popular shopping place, is only a 45 minute drive away. Our area is also known for its art, music, arts & crafts, outdoor summer plays, wineries and antiquing.
We welcome you as our guest, happy that you are here, and will greet you warmly, making you instantly feel at home.
There is 50 acres here to explore along the beautiful clear waters of the Guadalupe River and a 250' hill to climb just beyond.
Two canoes are provided to canoe 3/4 of a mile in the wide deep part of the river to a waterfall, Angel Falls, to observe the beauty there. There is several acres in the yard in which to play baseball, volleyball, and for the children to run and play.
There is no property that compares to the beauty, peace, and serenity that is here at Casa del Rio Riverhouse, and the welcoming provided by the host, Betty, who has the greatest guests that come to the Texas Hill Country for a Texas size get-away.
I love being host to these awesome, wonderful, kind and loving guests.

Our family had a very comfortable 3-night stay and enjoyed the property itself as well as access to nearby Lost Maples. Our host was very friendly and accessible next door. The place was a decent fit for our family of 5 and we took advantage of the river setting as much as possible in the (admittedly warm) TX winter. I bet this place really shines in the summer with the immediate river access.
We took our family and had a relaxing time near the river.
My husband, mother-in-law, and I stayed for two days while picking up our daughter at camp. It was wonderful - perfect location, very quiet and peaceful. We fished, kayaked, swam, hiked, and had a cook out. Wonderful get-away!
We had a very peaceful stay! Betty was so nice and attentive. It’s a beautiful place to relax.
This was our second time staying at this property. My family absolutely loves staying here. We love that you have access to spots in the river where it’s deep enough to swim and other spots more suitable for wading. There’s also a big back yard to enjoy!! Property owner is very nice and seems ver glad to have guests. We will be visiting again in the future.
Wonderful place!!
Very nice place, relaxing and enjoyable.
We spent Easter weekend at Casa Del Rio with our 4 sons (9-17yrs old). The house was clean, the beds were comfortable, the view was gorgeous, and Betty was a wonderful host. She came over right away to greet us and ask if we needed anything. My favorite part was the rocking chair swings overlooking the River. So relaxing. The water was too cold to swim in, but we all thoroughly enjoyed the canoes.
My family and I enjoyed our stay. The house is fully equipped, the kids had a great time playing outdoors, fishing, and swimming in the river. Would love to come back!
I wanted a place that was Hill Country to visit with my son and his family (incl grandson). Casa del Rio was an absolute delight... the morning views up and down the river, watching groups of deer cross the river, the spacious walks, the BBQ, campfire and rustic but fully equipped cabin, and even the comfy/snuggly beds. A great time for all of us. Thanks Betty!
This is a lovely location and charming home. We enjoyed our walks along the river, swinging on the rocking chair swings, watching the birds in the trees, hearing the rain on the roof and just relaxing. The home had everything we needed for a nice stay. The location is close to parks, area activities and local restaurants. Hosts were gracious and we enjoyed visiting.
We had a great time and plan on returning.
We had a fantastic time at this gorgeous cabin. Ms. Betty is so gracious to share her beautiful home. We loved every minute.
What a lovely time we had at Casa del Rio! A lovely, cozy two bedroom cabin! There is a full kitchen if you want to make your meals. A window wall allows you a beautiful view of the river and the lovely sound of the flowing river provides a peaceful background for your stay.
My husband and I recently stayed at Casa Del Rio for the 3rd time. If you haven't been you are missing out!! The water is beautiful, and the property is so peaceful. There is so much to do, and we have tried it all, but our favorite thing is just to float in circles. Thank you Betty once again for a wonderful relaxing get away. We hope to come see you again soon.
River access. Convenient to Hunt destinations
We had a wonderful time. The property is exactly as described. We wanted to unplug and relax and we did. We will definitely return again.
The place was pretty on the inside . The yard was not cleaned the stairs to the River were not cleaned and it was just not what I expected . The swim area was not really great for us . The house was quiet kitchen and tv was great . I just did not feel like I got what I paid for .
This was our second time to stay at Casa Del Rio for camp closing. The property is beautiful, and the river access is so easy. The cottage is not fancy, but it is comfortable, clean, and is perfect for what we need. Honestly, we are outside most of the time because we love the river! Betty is a wonderful host and I’m sure we will stay with her again.
We enjoyed staying on the Guadalupe River. The property was nice with several options of things to do. We plan to return to Casa del Rio.
My family and I all truly enjoyed our time. The location was great and had everything we needed to have a perfect relaxing get away! The river was so nice, the kids had a perfect swimming spot. We hope to return for another trip! Thank you!
Change out the king bed.. left side dips Upgrade linens and towels Towels were not not clean, smelled of body odor and were crunchy Kcup’s were not good. Premium coffee is available for small increase. Location is awesome and Betty is wonderful. We will possibly rent again.
Communication with owner was superb. Listing is very accurate. Very easy access to the property. Everything was as we expected and we would stay there again.
We really enjoyed our stay and enjoyed getting to meet Ms. Betty the owner. Betty has a beautiful river front property for you to enjoy and gives you a warm welcome when you get there. We will be staying again in the future.
