About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Relaxation awaits you. Open spaces throughout! The Blanco River welcomes you.

Retama is located right on the gorgeous, crystal clear waters of the Blanco River not far from the Wimberley Town Square. With 300 feet of stunning river frontage right out your back door this newly-remodeled home is an ideal, peaceful getaway from the big city. Huge oak trees welcome you to the Hill Country with branches like open arms. Beautiful, lush St. Augustine grass covers the entire property and invites you to grab your picnic blanket and a great book. Relax and let life pass you by while you read that long awaited novel on the banks of the tranquil river.

As you enter the home a wall of beautiful eight foot doors beckon you to come in and enjoy the quiet and stillness of the Hill Country. A large spacious living room, designed for families to gather and enjoy the roaring wood burning fireplace, is open to the wonderful gourmet kitchen with upscale granite countertops and shiny stainless steel appliances. Guests will enjoy dinner served at the large dining table which can seat ten guests comfortably. Overflow guests can be seated at the kitchen island which is equipped with four bar stools or at the bar area where there are an additional four high bar chairs.

Four beautiful bedrooms decorated in subdued, relaxing tones coax guests to enjoy a quiet night’s sleep and get ready for the day ahead. Sink into the inviting king bed or twin bed in the first bedroom. The second bedroom has three twin beds- perfect the little ones! In the third bedroom guests will enjoy another wonderfully tempting king bed. The huge master suite is a great haven that provides guests with a third king bed, a twin and a cozy sitting area with an additional sink.

If you have guests that enjoy a little competition there is a game room equipped with a regulation pool table and seating for spectators awaiting their turn.

For those who just can’t leave work behind or perhaps just have to stay in touch with the outside world the home is equipped with Wi-Fi. The flat screen television is perfect for your favorite movie featuring HDTV and Bluray with a surround sound system that will blow you away.

The outdoors are so alluring the kids won’t give their video games a second thought. They’ll love playing on the large, grassy lawn while mom or dad snooze in the hammock strung between the enormous oaks. When it’s time to cool off kids and adults can enjoy the river with its shallow and deep areas.

This roomy home is also great for brides-to-be and their bridal parties. The master suite is equipped with a huge three-way mirror, so the bride can ensure that she looks perfect from head to toe! And, the well-lit vanity in the sitting area is great for those wedding day makeovers. Imagine getting ready for your special day with the soundtrack of the Blanco River to ease your stress and provide a relaxing environment for you and your friends.

If spending your vacation floating in the pristine waters of the Blanco River sounds good to you make a reservation today!

Beautiful Property Close to Wimberley
This house was perfect for a family with small kids. We enjoyed the one-story home and the main living space was comfortable and nicely decorated. Bedrooms are co-located in one wing which allows adults to easily enjoy the living area, kitchen, and outdoors after kids are in bed. The house has plenty of beds and fortunately there were no bunk beds to tempt clumsy toddlers. Getting around is easy as Wimberley parking is only a 5-minute drive and grocery stores are just a bit further. Easy to run around during the day and settle into a peaceful nature retreat at night. I would absolutely stay at this property again.

Gorgeous place!
We absolutely loved this property! The views & windows were amazing; we loved sitting outside in the mornings to drink coffee. The house was very spacious, we had 8 people staying & everyone agreed their bed was super comfortable. It was about a 5 minute drive to downtown which was super convenient. I'm already planning a trip back during the summer time to enjoy the river with kids.

We stayed at this fabulous home for a family birthday celebration. I think the first reaction we had was that the pictures didn't even begin to show how great this property is. The land itself is beautiful and the house is icing on the cake. It's nestled in a quiet neighborhood close to town but feels like it's very remote. The house is tastefully done and has a wonderful homey feel to it. It was nice to get a reprieve from the 100 degree heat and play pool inside. New pots and pans would be a nice addition as the current ones are pretty worn, but other than that it's a lovely place.

Just as Described
The property was fantastic! Access to the river (thank God for the rain the week before!) and location were ideal. The house was spacious and comfortable and the view was beautiful. We had a group of 6 women and there were so many beds to choose from! The kitchen had all the basic necessities. Communication with property host was easy and they were very quick to respond with answers to our questions. Our only complaints were that the fire pit was rusted out and therefore broken leaving a rusty, ashy mess (we arrived to this), the patio furniture could use some updating but did not deter us from enjoying the patio, and while we appreciated the cigarette bucket (keeping butts off the ground), it should be emptied out after every stay, if used. Overall it was a fabulous weekend in a great house. We will definitely be back!

We've been doing this annual guy strip for 11 years now. This place was amazing. Mostly private. River view was amazing and just beautiful clear water. Bedding was comfortable and the pool table a real bonus. I don't see this listing on VRBO anymore, so I hope they haven't removed the listing. We will stay here again if available.
