About this cabin rental

Come out to the quiet and tranquil country like setting on the Llano River. Escape the busy race for a bit and come see nature at its best!

Enjoy modern conveniences in the remodeled river cabin with the exception of a traditional indoor stove (see kitchen details for other cooking equipment). The comfy Living room is equipped with a smart TV and there is a gaming console/tv in the guest bedroom. Families are welcome with lots of room to roam for children of all ages. There is plenty of gradual sloping land between the cabin and river for play. The cabin is safely located approximately 150 yards from the waters edge out of any flood plains.

One rapid is close to the bank with easy bank access and the other is out towards the middle of the river. The water depth varies from gravely shallows close to the bank to deeper type holes out towards the middle. Several trees shade the bank for your favorite lawn chair and one tree even shades the water next to the small rapids gravely and sand area.

We wanted a little secluded place on the river and got exactly that. The house, the yard, river was perfect. Definitely will be back.

Host provided all needed info timely. Lot was wonderful with great access to the River. There was an abundance of wildlife, we even saw some sort of wild mountain cat so kept pet on a long leash! Don’t think cabin had any heating but a space heater was available. Found one dead scorpion in the house but no others. I would recommend this property, especially to relax on the deck😃

Quiet, relaxing, waterfront getaway. My son said it’s perfect and just like he remembers it. This is one place we keep coming back to and would love to come again. Quiet tranquil setting, super river access, great space and lovely country getaway. Out kid loves it, our dog loves it and we love it. We always eat dinner in town. This time we also visited the farmers market, a bbq spot and all the shops in town. Such a great vacation and lovely wknd getaway. Thanks for renting to us again.

The rain so far in 2023 has been great for this part of the Llano. This is our 5th trip at Patrick’s and the river cabin gives you very special access to a beautiful section of the river. Would recommend for families or fisherman.

This was our first time staying in Llano, and this VRBO was like being in the country but still close to amenities. Beautiful property. Checkin was easy and exactly as shared. Directions were very clear. We had fun exploring he river. The river was extremely low (like every body of water due to the drought) but we walked and found a spot that was flowing. We found some great rocks, cooked off, played, hiked in the river sole more, up a huge rock in the river and back down, around and back. Would love to come back when the river is really flowing to see how it is. We appreciate being able to bring our dog, she was scared of the water but walked on the rocks and ran up and down the hill after and with us. The house is small but was just what we needed. We ate dinner out each night at a different spot. We got a couple TV channels and wasn't a big deal to be without cable afterall and our cell service was fine (no issues with AT&T). The only thing we weren't aware of and had no clue about was scorpions! We found several, I think eight so I would cautions walking barefoot inside and out. Over all a great stay and we'd do it again. The porch and deck is nice, we just went in at dark after feeding the deer (saw a few). And the view for the house to the river is spectacular. Thank you for letting us stay!

Even though it was much hotter and drier this stay than our last we still had a wonderful time. The property is beautiful and so peaceful and relaxing. The house was clean and inviting. The owner does a tremendous job taking care of the property and of the visitors. We arrived late on a Thursday evening and on Friday morning my husband realized the coffee pot wasn't working and that the refrigerator wasn't cooling properly. He emailed the owner and by 4:00 that same afternoon a new coffee pot and a new refrigerator were delivered to the the house!! We certainly did not expect that kind of service. Would definitely stay here again!

I would highly recommend this place if you are looking for to escape from the normal hustle and bustle of everyday life. My family really enjoyed the peace and quiet and watching the wildlife. We loved using the grill and while my husband was cooking, the rest of us lounged on the huge deck. The whole process was a breeze and we knew if we needed anything we could reach out to Patrick. We didn’t have to though since the home had everything we needed. It was the perfect place for what my family was looking for and we would stay again!

We enjoyed our 3 night stay in this river cabin. The river is beautiful and my 2 sons (11 and 14) enjoyed going up and down the river in the kayaks fishing all day. My husband and I loved just sitting in river chairs enjoying the peaceful Llano river! We went into Castell one day for burgers at the general store. We ate lunch one day in Llano at Gio’s Italian restaurant after hiking Enchanted Rock! Nothing was disappointing. Everything was great! We would love to go back!❤️😎

We love staying here! We’ve stayed here multiple times over past couple years in both summer & spring months. The cabin is always clean & comfortable. Patrick, the owner, is always super nice, helpful & quick to respond. The street is quiet & secluded & the neighbors are very nice & friendly. The river area is awesome with a swimming area anywhere from ankle deep to over 5ft deep. Great place to explore or just relax & cool off.

We needed a short break from the world, and this was the perfect place. We enjoyed sitting on the deck listening to birds and watching the wildlife. The house was clean and had everything we needed. We came to Llano to find a little Llanite (which we did), but we also found a great little town, some cool hiking places, and the perfect home away from home to enjoy it in.

The property was just as he explained. Very relaxing. House was perfect for our family of four. Walk down to the water was easy for all of us and was very clean. Kids played in the water(COLD .. but kids don't care) and we could sit and watch them. Picnic table was perfect. We will definitely be back. THANK YOU again Patrick. :)

Great community in Llano

Great community in Llano

In addition to a nice property as noted by others (we appreciate that the lawn was mowed from the house all the way down to the river), we loved Llano. Having to work one day of our stay, we went to the coffee shop in town for WiFi, and we met lots of great people, enjoyed the live music and got in a little Christmas shopping before heading back to the property for fishing and grilling burgers.

Heaven on the Llano River!

Heaven on the Llano River!

We were so pleased with our decision to stay here! Patrick was fabulous in responding to the few questions we had. It was mentioned in a previous review that a wagon was helpful to tote items between the cabin and river. So happy we brought ours. We ended up toting our dog back and forth because even though the land was so nicely mowed, there were stickers the time of year we stayed. We 1000% would love to come back. We did not see another human our entire 3 days on the river. Exactly what we were hoping for. As with any rental, if you can not live without it, bring it with you just in case. LOVED this section of the river!!! Valerie, Andrew & T-Max

We went late June and though it was warm it was cool inside and has a terrific access to the river. You can easily get down to take a dip (or sit) in the river. Nice grassy seating area next to the river for wonderful sunrise and sunset views. there is also a nice seating area outside up by the house. It was peaceful and relaxing. I would definitely stay hear again.

Lovely place

Lovely place

We had a great stay! The house is set up very well. Large shower and nice kitchen space. Everything you need for cooking and eating. There is no stove, but we just cooked everything on the grill. The bedrooms are very large and had enough space for 2 pack and plays. The bedrooms are bright during the day time so we put trash bags over the windows to block the light so our twins could nap. The porch is the best part! It's huge and has plenty of chairs to sit and enjoy the view. We saw a doe with a fawn and many beautiful birds. The spot on the river is perfect. There is shallow and deep spots very close, so the kids could play and we did some fishing.. There is a spot on the way down to the water that is very rocky, so we had to take the kids out of the wagon and carry them the rest of the way. The table, chairs, and picnic table are so nice by the river! We took a big umbrella for the table. The house is close enough to run into Llano for anything, and very close to Castell General Store. We had an issue with the water in the house, but the owner was quick to get with us and get it fixed. Great communication and overall a lovely stay! Thank you so much!

Away from it all

Away from it all

River is highlight. It’s visible from property, but is a couple min walk down the hill. Tons of cardinals and other birds flying around. A few deer too. Very quiet place overall , but did see neighbors from one side down at the river once or twice. As you’d expect near a river , mosquitoes and gnats love this place, so bug spray is warranted. The no stove things was a bit weird, but you can work around. The town is a 15 or so min drive away, so this cabin js well away from things if that’s your thing (is for us). Thankfully for us, the stand alone ACs kept up (not central air), but a bit noisy as ran nearly constantly. Given the heat we had (upper 90s) this is close to worse case. So, I guess that’s good.

Amazing Anniversary Getaway!!!

Amazing Anniversary Getaway!!!

Wow!!! Just wow. We are blown away with everything this property had to offer. I planned a surprised getaway for my daughters and wife for our anniversary. I picked this destination based on pictures and reviews. Ince we got there it was an automatic 5-star property. Llano is a hidden gem. The property is about 10 miles from town and the river is just Amazing. We spent so much time enjoying nature while in the river. My daughters loved the river, the kayaks, the deer, roadrunner, cardinals, and a ton of other things in the property. Loved the DVD-only entertainment. Llano has some great food choices that encourage you to shop local. Enchanted Rock, 30 minutes away, was great compliment to our trip. It was a great experience, and I had zero complaints about the accommodations. We are workaholic people and this really helped us realize that there are things more important than work. We hope one day we can come back to Llano and its wonderful places.

We had a wonderful time; relaxing and quiet. We used the kayak to go fishing and my daughter caught her 1st catfish during the trip. The owner (Patrick) was great at helping and answering questions quickly. If you have little kids/dogs beware of the fire ants (especially if there is a lot of rain). We are thankful that Patrick was quick to assist when we asked for help.

My husband and I stayed for 4 nights with our 2 old dogs. They loved the adventure of climbing on the rocks and splashing in the river. We loved the privacy and lovely scenery. The owner, Patrick, was quick to respond to our rental request as well as reaching out to us on arrival day, but really, we didn't need him for anything after that. Arrival/departure instructions were simple and clear. The cabin was very well appointed and exceptionally clean and comfortable. We weren't interested in cooking during our relaxing getaway, so we didn't miss having an oven, not even a little. There's a frig, coffee pot, toaster oven, and a nice big smoker/grill on the deck and town is just a 10 min drive if we wanted a restaurant or store. We really enjoyed being disconnected from the internet and cable tv. We made use of the jigsaw puzzles and DVD video library. We sat for hours outside on the large deck birdwatching and listening to the gentle flow of the water. There was plenty of trees for shade around the cabin as well as at the river. A lovely family of cardinals kept us company and the stars at night were big and bright. It was an easy walk down the mowed, gentle grassy slope to the river, and lots of cool up-croppings of large granite rocks surrounded by wildflowers. This property is obviously very well kept and managed. It was really all very beautiful and peaceful and we plan to come back again.

The drive to this property was so beautiful with all the wildflowers this time of year. 152 has become one of my favorite hill country roads. Really enjoyed the fact the property had been mowed down to the river yet they left the wildflowers on the sides. Great property for our dogs. However, small dogs beware, there are lots of stickers. Beautiful landscaping with large rocks to climb on. Actually spotted a roadrunner twice. Nice deck and lots of birds. The furniture on the lawn in front of the deck is the BEST. So comfy. Used the provided kayaks two days in a row and enjoyed rock hunting in the area. Will definitely be back!

Perfect little gem. This location was exactly what we were looking for. Slow paced for those seeking to relax away from the hectic city, or plenty of opportunity to create your own adventure for those on the go. From quiet surroundings, morning songbirds, abundant wildlife, to fishing, kayaking, swimming, exploring, etc. The house was perfect for our group of 5 (two adults, 18, 13, 12). Spent an afternoon in Llano where we enjoyed mesquite fired pizza, Cooper's BBQ and wonderful ice cream on the city square. Adults enjoyed a fiddle/blues concert in town as well. Thank you for opening up your home to our family. Cheers!

A Quiet Time on the River

My daughter & I had sought some peaceful time together on the Llano River in the midst of the pandemic & we achieved just that. We spent much time down at the property’s beautiful river frontage (and in the water during the heat of the day). We also kayaked a stretch of the river & I did some fly fishing. We sat on the deck during a good part of most mornings & evenings. Mission accomplished!

An exceptional slice of Texas

An exceptional slice of Texas

This is an amazing piece of property on the one of the few remaining wild rivers in Texas. The property slopes gently towards the river and has some really nice outcropping rock. Established live oaks shade a nice sitting area in the evenings and the view from the deck is hard to beat. We had a wonderful time wading in the river, kayaking, and watching the wildlife. The cabin is clean but fairly basic. We were there during some of the hottest days of the year and the AC units were able to keep up for the most part. The lack of a kitchen stove didn't really cause us any trouble thanks to a well seasoned cast-iron griddle pan that worked well on the grill side burner. Patrick was very responsive to any questions I had and was understanding when my young son broke an item. We are grateful for a relaxing stay and hope to visit again.

This property was perfect for us. We were looking for off the beaten path and nature. It was very relaxing. We were able to play in the water, kayak, and fish. Fish bite well. We recommend swim shoes. We used an electric skillet ($20 bucks at Walmart) for cooking and heating up left overs. Coopers bbq and Gio's Italian were our favorite places to eat. We would definitely rent again!!

Amazing River Getaway!!

Amazing River Getaway!!

We can’t say enough wonderful things about this river cabin and the owner, Patrick! My husband, daughter, myself & 2 dogs came out for 4 days and we practically lived down at the river during the day, and hung out on the huge balcony in the evenings. The cabin was clean & cooled off for us upon arrival, and Patrick was super quick to respond and very friendly with communication. The beds were very comfortable, rooms plenty cool with a window AC unit and ceiling fan in each room, bathroom had a great size shower & well lit. We loved watching all the birds around the cabin and some deer would come around early mornings and late evenings. The night sky is also a must see with all the lights off! Walking down to the river was fun crossing the smoothed out rocks. The giant picnic table down by the river along with a couple of chairs and another table were a wonderful added bonus. Getting into the river is a bit of a step down, but we managed just fine each time. Lots of deeper swimming areas to hang out at the property river entrance. One day we took our river tubes and floated down to the county rd 102 river road crossing & drove back. Just an absolutely blast for our family the entire time. (Side note-unfortunately one of our dogs ran off down to the river as we were loading them up in the truck. I reached out to Patrick and he has been so incredibly nice and helpful with alerting local neighbors and helping us trying to find our dog.)
