Wonderful host

Donny was one of if not the best host/person I have met. He is truly a great person who cares about his property and guests. Rooms were well kept, hotel style kitchenette minus microwave (inside). Great location and one of few that allow you to park by the river. I didn’t mind the outdoor cooking pavilion with a minor issue pertaining to clean pots, pans, utensils available. You can tell they once were all stocked but with all the guests misused misplaced. Pool was colder than Frio but we enjoyed it. Few minor issues that don’t take away from this great place were mini fridge not plugged in and took awhile to cool, missing 1 tv remote, bathroom sink, I’m guessing had a “breather “, leaked. None of these were brought to Donny attention due to unforeseen circumstances, which he was very helpful with and understanding. If nothing else I’d rebook just for his great hospitality and true care for his property and guests.

This place was great in all aspects..

The owner and manager were very helpful and hospitable. They are very pet friendly. The location was perfect and very private. The river was a short walking distance. The cabin was cozy with very comfortable beds. We felt very welcomed! We will visit again!

Great place and Great host!

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. Donny was an amazing host and Jimmy was a tremendous help on site. The location was perfect, Jimmy took us up river to drop in so we could float back to our rental. Easy peasy! Also the picnic tables they had out front in the river made perfect opportunity for people watching and enjoying the river even more. The community kitchen was a nice place to meet other people staying on the property loaded with all the things you need in order to grill. The pool was nice and refreshing as well. Looking forward to staying again!

About the host

Hosted by Donny Haggerton Jr.

I was born and raised in Kingsville, Texas. After 35 successful years in the Dry Cleaning/Laundry business, I retired and built 2 homes and 7 suites on the same land my mother and father purchased in 1960. Now, the property layout includes 4 spacious, private homes. I spend my summers entertaining and hosting families on the beautiful Frio River. My parents always loved having groups of friends and family enjoy this land for all of my life. Now I get to carry on their dream and help give families an unforgettable vacation experience in this stunning Texas getaway!

Why they chose this property

This property has been in my family estate and owned since 1960. It is one of the last properties on the Frio River with unchanged, undeveloped private riverfront which I enjoyed growing up in the 60's!
My unique architectural style and decorating flair makes my properties breathtakingly elegant, yet cozy with all the amenities of home.
I will be on premises to check your party in, and to see that families get the most fun out of their vacation. Need help? I'm just a call away!

What makes this property unique

One of our great features here at VacationFrioRiver.com is that we offer a complimentary tube shuttle service in our fully air-conditioned modified airport shuttle bus!
We will gladly drop your party off at Seven Bluffs Crossing for a 2-3 hour float that-guess what- ends up right on our Private Riverfront shoreline!
