The River House
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Visit the Texas Hill Country for your next getaway and go off the grid at this spacious dog-friendly home on the banks of the Colorado River. A full kitchen with a dishwasher lets you cook your favorite meal. At night, gather in the living room for family time or warm up around the outdoor fire. Please note this home does not have WIFI or TV's.
This home lies just south of Buchanan Lake, with a vast swimming area and very little boat traffic behind the house. The city of Burnet is a 14-mile drive away, where you can attend the Burnet Bluebonnet Festival in the spring. Boat rentals are available at Inks Lake State Park, and the links at Legends Golf Course are just 15 miles away in nearby Kingsland. For hiking and sightseeing in the hills, visit Longhorn Cavern, State Park.

10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Nov 2025
beautiful setting, excellent amenities, quiet and peaceful, enjoyed our experience
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·May 2025
Loved the location. Please turn electricity on several hours prior to guest arrival. We had to find the breaker in the dark. One outside and one inside. It took several hours for the house to cool and more than 24 hours for the fridge. Note on fridge indicates basically this is the norm as it states can take up to 24 hours to cool. Patio cushions need to be replaced as they are worn out. As stated in previous reviews dryer does not work.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Dec 2024
Location and water view is wonderful. Launched our canoe and paddled up and down the river on and offduring
4 day stay.Cooked on the grill and ate in the sunset. Played badminton with the children on the spacious fenced in grounds.House inside was clean but really needs some tender care. Beds were very clean and comfortable. Dinning room seating was only for four people needs two more chairs for a family to sit together. Kitchen fully equipped . Nothing flashy if you are looking for a glamorous house but comfortable if you are not fussy. Ac vents really need cleaning as do the windows. Stairs difficult with invalids or small children and need some repair . Living room could do with a couple of side lamps. It was a wonderful place but really needs a personal touch or you neepropertyrd
6.0 / 10.0Average·Apr 2025
Overall property site is awesome and dog friendly. Could have easily been a 5 star stay all the way around but missing important details. -Refrigerator didn't cool properly and ruined 2 T-bone steaks/sides. Found everything warm the next morning. - Dryer heated but was not spinning and could not dry wet clothes- Propane on the grill was out- Down stairs bathroom was clogged
