On the Frio River
On the Frio River! Over 2 acres of private river frontage. Located less than 1 mile from the shops and restaurants in downtown Leakey. Fully equipped kitchen, sheets, and towels. Plenty of room whether enjoying the shade on the deck or soaking up the sun on the banks of the Frio. Located across the street from The Pecan Farm, making a short walk(or tube) over for a cold drink and a meal! *** We are currently under drought conditions and our river is struggling. We are praying for rain so the river is flowing full and living its best life.

We had a wonderful stay at this property on the Frio River! The home was very clean, comfortable, and truly pet friendly, which made traveling with our dogs so easy and stress free.The owners were extremely helpful and responsive throughout our stay. They answered questions quickly and made sure we had everything we needed. The kitchen was fully stocked with all the essentials, making it easy to cook and enjoy meals together.One thing we especially appreciated was that towels and linens were provided. In this area, many rentals require you to bring your own, so this made our trip so much easier.Overall, it was a great experience, and we would definitely stay here again

Host was responsive. Location is good, edge of town, occasional highway noise but not bad. Refrigerator door was missing handle. Not fancy but good for a short getaway on the Frio.

The home was very nice and clean! Was a little disappointed that water wasn’t closer to the house! We went to Garner State park and it was amazing ! I do appreciate the fact that the house was fully supplied with all we needed to cook with, linens/ towels provided etc! Don’t wanna have to pack up so much to travel for a couple days ! Overall nice stay!

Lovely housd
We had a great time at this property and absolutely loved the little house. The backyard set up was perfect for campfires and grilling, and the location was very convenient to get to Lost Maples and Garner state parks. The house had everything we could want and was very cozy inside. Definitely want to go back!

I loved the property. Easy access the Gartner state park.
Home is very nice, clean and comfortable! It was close to Leakey as we were involved in a Volleyball tournament! No water in the Frio River behind the home but the stay was great. Thank you
