If you are wondering how we got our name Whiskey Mountain….Many years ago during the prohibition times, a whiskey distillery was developed in a cave in the mountain behind our property. The Bootleggers were caught selling their production and the local population decided to call this “area” Whiskey Mountain.
It was built in 1869 and is a 1 ½ story German farmhouse with a lot of history and tales! The stories written tell of families full of love with dances in the front rooms and horses tied up to the front cypress tree posts that hold up the 50 foot front porch!
Whiskey Mountain Inn is nestled in the Texas Hill Country off Hwy 83 about 3 miles South of Leakey, Texas. We are convenient in location to many attractions in the Frio River area such as Garner State Park and Lost Maples State Natural Area and we are within a very short distance to river access.

Great Locations but extra visitors

Great location but we had to cut our trip short. Every night you could hear rats running around. The in-laws saw some on the restroom and you can heard them trough the walls.

sewage issues

The location and communication with the host was great, however there was an issue with the sewage system over following into the yard. This caused one of the bathrooms to be out of order which was inconvenient with 18 people staying in the house. Other than that it was great.

Had so much fun!

Over all we had a great stay. Nice property but a little cramped for our big Ol’ Family. One small issue with a door but nothing that kept us from enjoying our stay:)

About the host

Hosted by Cassie Hurles

My name is Cassie Hurles, I have always lived in Texas (Dallas & Houston Areas) and all my summers were spent at the Frio River area. I met my husband, Darren (Daz) in 2001 while he was working here in the states. He moved here from Scotland in 2001. We then had our son, Connor in February 2004 and our daughter, Isla in May 2008. The first time I took my husband to the Frio River he fell in love and we kept the family tradition going with our kids, making it a must every year. Then we moved to the beautiful Texas Hill Country in April 2015 & bought Whiskey Mountain Inn on July 22, 2016. We are looking forward to this new adventure.
