In May you may be lucky to spot beautiful pink roses growing on the dam - out of the reach of hungry deer. One day an elderly woman greeted my friend at the creek, explaining that she had grown up there, swimming and playing on hot summer days, long before any of us discovered this paradise. She explained that her father had planted those roses, some ninety years previous, in the perfect spot apparently as they are thriving there today. We named this special place after her and her daddy's roses, so named The River Rose Retreat, where you and yours can drink in the unique and restorative smells, sounds, and eye candy, the absolute best of the Texas hill country.

This beautifully hand designed property depicts why we all love the Texas hill country. Multi leveled decks, porches a plenty and paths/benches/walls that are intricately hand lain with local rocks. Its such a delight to explore this unique property.

This property is dog friendly. So bring along your WHOLE family on your next vacation! We have a $100 pet fee.

The kitchen is fully stocked with absolutely anything you need to prepare your meals away from home. A private BBQ pit is available at each house. The open concept kitchen/dining/living room has wrap around large windows that provide a beautiful view of the sky and creek even when indoors.

There is a small sitting pool(not heated) behind the main house. This pool is exclusively for treetop house use. The pool has a lovely deck that overlooks the creek and horizon. The deck has tables and chairs to accommodate your whole party. Even though hot tub is listed as an amenity, we do not have one. VRBO can not figure out how to remove it.

The seasonal creek access is just a short walk out the back door. The path is constructed in conjunction with the natural landscape, so care should be taken when walking down to the creek. We have creek access and a private dammed off swimming hole.

This home has a back deck, a screened in porch in the front, a front seating area, a private balcony upstairs and a sitting area around the pool. There are so many ways to enjoy nature with your loved ones together or in private.
