Secluded Backyard, Near Lake, River, & Whitewater Amp
About this cottage rental
This property features 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms with an open concept living room, great for visiting. This is the perfect stay for a couple, a small family, or a group of friends. Enjoy the beautiful scenery from our massive dec, cozy up by a fire under the stars with our outdoor fireplace, or relax in our newly added hot tub. The backyard will capture your heart, as it has ours, because of the peace you feel being surrounded by the countryside. The hill country views are amazing, and we are located close to whatever it is you're looking to do! The home is 5 minutes from the lake, 10 minutes from the Guadalupe River/Whitewater Amphitheater, 15 minutes from Wimberley and local breweries/wineries, 20 minutes from San Marcos and the Tanger Outlets, 20-30 minutes from Gruene, New Braunfels, and Schlitterbahn, and 30 minutes from Dripping Springs. It truly is the perfect spot for a vacation because there is so much to do close by. If you're looking to just have a peaceful retreat and stay close to home, you'll love the massive outdoor deck, as it is surrounded by hill country, and the trees help you feel secluded from neighbors. This house offers a great space to relax and unwind from the grind of normal life. On your drive to the house, you will be immersed in the beautiful rolling hills of Texas Hill Country and if you look closely, you'll even be able to see the lake at the peak of the hills from the neighborhood! For those of you looking to do some work during your stay, we offer high speed internet, and our dining table has a great view for you to enjoy during the workday. The home is furnished with a king-sized bed in the master bedroom and a queen-sized bed in the second bedroom. The optimal amount of guests is 4 people, but if you're willing to squeeze, it could fit 5-6 people - Although, someone might have to sleep on our comfy sectional to make it work for parties larger than 4! In the kitchen, you will find that it is stocked with all the silverware, cutlery, dishes, pots, pans, spices, and cooking oil you'll need to make meals at home. We also provide a coffee bar stocked with a Keurig, coffee pods (including decaf), a selection of teas, sugar, and creamer. The living room is furnished with a nice flat-screen Roku TV so you can login to any streaming app during your stay. Additional amenities you will find include: a washer and dryer, iron, blow dryer, towels, shampoo/conditioner, and more. You'll have access to the entire home, other than the garage, as that stays locked for our cleaners. We are happy to host furry friends, but we do want to make note that the backyard is not fenced in. For those requesting to bring along a pet, we ask that you approve that with the host first. Please note, in an effort to maintain a secure premises, the home is equipped with a ring doorbell and three exterior cameras. One exterior camera looks out into the front entrance/driveway and the other two are located on the backside of the house. The cameras are ONLY on the exterior, and there are no cameras on the inside. Our home is thoroughly cleaned between each stay. Any items left behind by a guest will be either thrown out, or shipped to the guest at their expense. Canyon Lake is the perfect Texas Hill Country getaway with things to enjoy for any type of guest. The home is 2.5 miles from the Canyon Lake Marina and a great beach spot for the family. For those of you looking for a float trip on the Guadalupe River, the house is only 6 miles from the Horseshoe Loop (a 2hr float depending on water levels) with several tubing outfitters. If you're lucky, you can even catch a concert at the White Water Amphitheater on the Horseshoe. For day trips, Wimberley is 8 miles away, Gruene is 15 miles away, New Braunfels is 17 miles away, and Dripping Springs is 19 miles away. If you want to venture even further to explore the city, Austin is only 36 miles away. Please reach out to us if you have any questions, we would love to help make your stay as special as we can!

This was the perfect place for a getaway, sitting by the fire, and relaxing in hot tub was very peaceful. We stayed in December, and we are certainly planning another stay here during the summer!

This property made for a great getaway with the family. Close enough to roam around San Antonio while still remote enough to relax and slow down.
The hot tub was great for winding down in the evenings and the kids enjoyed watching deer from the kitchen window then going out to look for their tracks later.
Host was very accommodating and accessible. Great property if looking to explore the area but do not want to be in town.

My family and I really enjoyed staying at this property. The home was clean and feels very cozy. The owners are very easy to get a hold of and keep an open line of communication. We hope to continue staying here whenever we make our way down to the area!

The house was super cute, very clean and so incredibly well decorated. The beds were all very comfortable with nice linens. I loved the back porch swing and fireplace. We only stayed for one night but would absolutely stay here again. It's a beautiful property in a quiet neighborhood.

This was a great place to stay, in a convenient and quiet location. The pictures are accurate, the house was very clean and nicely furnished. The porch and outside fireplace were comfortable. Our dogs enjoyed the yard and many walks in the area.

Me and my mother were on a mother/daughter trip and stayed at this home for 1 night. The house was as so cute, so incredibly clean and comfortable. We stay in a lot of Vrbo/airbnbs and this was by far the cleanest.Host had everything we needed and it was such an easy in and out place. So close to Wimberley which is where we were spending our time. Super quiet. Check out was a dream. So easy. Didn’t ask us to do anything crazy. Super easy. Would recommend and stay again!!

My husband and I celebrated our 32nd wedding anniversary at this beautiful little cabin in Canyon Lake. It had all the comforts of home not to mention a relaxing outdoor fireplace to sit under the stars. Lexi was so very helpful and had great communication during our stay. We will come back soon!💘💘💘

Great place to stay, very clean and cozy.
My fiancé, 2 pups and I enjoyed our time, Lexi was very communicative and helped with finding activities nearby us which was a nice help.
We loved making s’mores by the fireplace, and would stay here again.

We stayed for 11 days at the Canyon lake home and were extremely happy we picked it. It was a great location to travel in every direction and find something new to do everyday! We went to at least 6 different parks over the extended week to hike and enjoy the weather and scenery. Both Austin and San Antonio are close enough for a day trip. Best part is when you get tired of traveling and eating out you can enjoy the house and porch for a quiet home and dinner to relax and plan your next adventure!

My husband, adult son and I spent 4 nights at this Canyon Lake property and it couldn't have been more ideal. There is so much to do in this area. We explored Fredericksburg, San Antonio, Austin, Gruene and Wimberly which were all within easy driving distance from the house! We finished each day with dinner at the house, so having a grocery story minutes away was handy! We enjoyed cooking on the grill and hanging out on the back patio. The house is absolutely beautiful and very comfortable. The first night we were unable to start the grill and Lexi responded immediately, and by the next day there was a new grill! Lexi even offered to buy us dinner, but there is enough cookware and spices that we had a great meal on the stove.
We are already thinking about our next visit to this property- the next time we will bring our boat and take advantage of the beautiful lake.

This was a very cozy and peaceful retreat from the big city with my spouse for a nice Valentines celebration and anniversary get-a-way. I would highly recommend and would give 5++ stars! The listing was spot on; we loved the ease (digital lock) of entering/leaving the cute cottage; our little Schnauzer felt right at home; the decor was very beautiful and bed was so soft and comfortable we snuggled right in and slept well! We loved the atmosphere and property; the back patio and fireplace were so wonderful and relaxing and we could see all the stars at night! Lexi was quick to reply and a fantastic host with all the amenities we could ask for; cute little town of Wimberly also! LOVE LOVE LOVED our stay and it went TOO fast! We want to return to this property when the weather is warmer and spend more time outdoors on the wonderful property; thank you again!!!!!

I stayed here with my family of three and we loved it! The house is beautiful and equipped with everything we needed and more. There were so many thoughtful touches. The beds were very comfortable. The house was central to tons of restaurants, breweries and wineries. Lexi was beyond helpful whenever we needed anything and always quick to respond. Will absolutely stay here again when we’re back in the area!

Our stay was wonderful here. Lexi thought of absolutely everything down to a notebook full of info for the area. The house is beautifully decorated and was warm and cozy. The outdoor ambiance just added to the experience. Definitely should book your stay!

Me, my husband and small rat terrier really enjoyed our stay in this very above average, beautiful cottage. Everything was very clean, good quality and very taken care of. The host was perfect at communicating with us and we will definitely be coming back for another stay. I would highly recommend this cottage for a nice, relaxing place. Thank you Lexi.

Lexi and Tanner’s home is out-of-a-magazine beautiful and 5-star-luxury-hotel comfortable. The outdoor spaces were perfect for our small elopement ceremony and family pics. Communication with Lexi was fast as well as friendly. Cannot recommend this home enough!

We absolutely loved the cottage and our stay. There are so many nice personal touches inside, and the outside space is just incredible! We were so happy to take our dog with us and enjoy the space. Lexi was so communicative, and we had everything we could have needed. We would 12/10 go back.

I'm not even over-exaggerating with the title of my review - this VRBO was by far the best one I've ever stayed at. The property owner, Lexi, is absolutely amazing and so helpful. Always very quick to respond to messages. This is the first BnB that I can honestly say was 100% clean (sad, but true). The pictures of the property are accurate, and it's just perfectly decorated in a way that it really makes you feel like you're at home. I will definitely be staying here again in the future!

My wife and I snuck away with neighbors for a quiet getaway from our busy lives.
The Canyon Lake home was very clean, cozy, and comfortable!
The host communicated very well checking on us each morning through the VRBO site messenger.
The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen and living area were very functional. The showers were perfect. The host is very thoughtful in providing some accessories to include shampoo, conditioner, body wash and lotion.
Excellent trip and perfectly located to enjoy New Braunfels and/or Wimberley.
Many good restaurants in the area.

We had a lovely time at this home in Canyon Lake! Beautifully decorated, clean and so comfortable. It was close to all the things you need but secluded enough to get away from it all. The back porch and fireplace are just unmatched. Deer coming by every day! Lexi was great to work with, wonderful communication too! Book your stay now, you won’t regret it!

We wanted to go on a fall getaway with our kids before the craziness of the holidays and I wanted to find a cozy, family friendly house for my family and I to enjoy. The house was fantastic, very clean, and it felt like we were 5 star guests! The back porch with the big porch swing as awesome and the deer that came to greet us in the morning was just the cherry on top. Our kids want to go back already!

Hospitality starts with thoughtfullness and Lexi has thought of it all. Before I booked her place I had several questions and she was always informative, kind and prompt in her replies. Check-in was a breeze. As soon was we walked in we were transported into a serene and peaceful ambiance. The house is decorated beautifully and was perfectly clean. Due to the burn ban we were not able to enjoy the fireplace outside which was a bummer but we still sat outside and were able to enjoy a nice quiet night on the back-porch. We were only there for one night but are looking forward to our next visit soon. The only thing I would recommend is that they would keep a set of plastic cups and plates for little visitors.

Summer Get Away
My wife, MIL our dog and I had a great relaxing time. The property and owners were great.
Deer greeted us each morning and evening. Convenient to San Marcus, Wimberly, local lake, grocery’s and eateries.
The only thing which has nothing to do with the property or owners is the local restaurants do not keep their websites updated on when they are closed(some closed on Mondays or Tuesdays) but websites show them open.

Beautiful, clean home
We had a great experience communicating with Lexi and everything about the home was as described. We were happy with how clean the home was, and very nicely decorated. We're here for our kids at John Knox Ranch summer camp and would definitely stay here again.

This home is fantastic! (Located on the North side of Canyon Lake) 2 bedrooms/2 baths, large open kitchen and dining area, granite counter tops throughout, large sunken sink in the kitchen, wood floors and all appliances are new. WiFi connection is fast and easy to connect to. Everything you could possibly need is within 10-15 minutes i.e. groceries, restaurants, access to the lake etc. The beds are very comfortable and new as well, and the linens are top notch. There is everything you need to cook a home cooked meal including a nice outdoor grill on the deck, microwave, oven and a pantry to store items. This home is pet friendly with restrictions but not unreasonable. There is driveway to park your vehicle with a garage (which we did not need to use). Cozy neighborhood and the homes are not too close so you have privacy. One of the best features is the back deck (no fence) with a wood burning fireplace and seating area, wood deck with arbor and string lights, large swing that was perfect for photos especially in the evening with the lights on. We also were able to enjoy some deer wandering through the back near the deck (10-15 feet away from where we were sitting). With all that said, the owners are very nice, attentive and accommodating. I will definitely be staying here again since we weren't able to do everything we wanted and want to visit again soon!
