Great Time and place
The stay was great even though the river was non existent at the time of our stay! The home was great with no issues and we will stay there again! Thanks to Ruth for the great communication during our stay!

Family of 4- (3 day Vacation in June)
We decided to visit Blanco for a short getaway from the city. I had seen this property a few years back and had saved it. I'm so glad we finally got to stay in the Rock house. It looks just like the pictures. When we arrived, we were greeted by friendly Mrs. Ruth. All instructions and information emailed was very accurate and helpful. My daughter (age 11) and my son (age 14) had so much fun playing in the river. Most of it is low which makes it feel safe for the kids. If you go a bit to the right once in the water from the access, we found 2 spots where the water hit my husband's chest. Even in the low areas my son greatly enjoyed using the kayak that is available for guests to use. I had paid entry to the Blanco State Park for one of our days there. The day came and we headed over there, my kids and husband took one look at the water and said nope lets go back to the Rock house, the water was so much prettier/clear at the property. So we left and they went straight to it and had a blast. They literally wouldn't get out till the last bit of daylight was gone, around 9pm. Our last full day there the grass was mowed, which made it much more comfortable walking to and from the river. Access to the town is super quick and easy. We had a great time and will definitely stay at the Rock house if we go again.

Stay exceeded beyond expectations..
Everything was so well thought of...the towels, the blankets, toiletries were plentiful..the kitchen is fully equipped....the house is very clean, the decor is to my taste...firewood is available though we didn't use it....the place is 30 minutes away from Pedernales Falls State Park which was the reason why we were in Blanco.....the only downside is that the water level of the river is extremely low... my husband came with his fishing rod😄.. my grandson found the river still exciting however...

Just what we needed!
The property was easy to find and was just what we expected. Everything was spotlessly clean, well taken care of and well stocked. The bed and the furniture were very nice and very comfortable. The kitchen was a pleasure to use and everything we needed was on hand. The host had thoughtfully provided a three hour fire log which we enjoyed using. There was also a supply of firewood. The Grill worked perfectly. We loved watching the deer and one big buck as they wandered through the property. The area was very peaceful. Check in and out was very efficient. We would highly recommend this property.

Cute cabin in a good location
We needed a place for the weekend that was convenient to Blanco and this property met all our requirements. It is small but clean and in a great location tucked away off the highway along the river. It was quiet and the grounds are well kept and spacious. We would definitely stay here again.

Amazing cabin on the Blanco River
Such an excellent cabin and property! We had a momma and two baby deer visit us multiple times a day and loved watching the owls sit in the trees. I can’t say enough good things about the cabin…it is so quaint, beautiful, and very comfortable!! We will definitely be back, especially when the River has more water.
