Absolutely beautiful property with spacious, shady backyard that leads directly down to the water. There is a nice sitting area, pier to easily access the River for swimming, kayaking, etc. Very quiet area of the river. If you want to toob and be a part of the party scene, there are several outfitters very nearby. Several great dive bars nearby as well.
We had five people in our traveling party and we had plenty of room to sleep, hangout, eat, etc…The screened patio is awesome! We had our morning coffee on the patio and watched several deer roam through the yard - so peaceful! The property is very clean and has everything you need including cookware, TV, WiFi, laundry room, etc…Property management is very kind and quick to respond. This is our second time to stay here and it won’t be our last!

I had a hard time getting a hold of the property manager before our stay. All instructions were incorrect about how to check in and WiFi password. We thankfully were able to get a hold of her when we got there so we were able to get in after realizing the code we had was wrong. It was overpriced and had no toiletries. I figure that the price was due to a concert at whitewater amphitheater. It was very peaceful and nice in the mornings. I just feel that the property manager lacks understanding of customer service and guest experience. In this situation you don’t get what you paid for.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this quiet neighborhood. The backyard is lovely for relaxing by the river. (It might be a bit of a challenge to get down the slope for anyone with mobility issues.) The kitchen is well equipped for cooking. Our only disappointment is that there was only one float available for playing on the river - a couple of paddle boards or kayaks would be a great addition to this property! We drove to Canyon Lake every day to swim since the river water is so cold and these were not an option, otherwise we might not have left the house during our stay.

We had a great stay at the Fox Den River House. It was perfect for our family of four, with plenty of space for both adults and kiddos to play. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed, so we stayed in and enjoyed quiet mornings with the deer. Our days were spent relaxing by the cool, beautiful blue-green Guadalupe, waving at the occasional tubers and listening to a red-tailed hawk who we think nested nearby. Highly recommend the Canyon Lake Gorge hike if you're in the area too!

Great location and very comfortable
This was our first VRBO stay and we were not disappointed. The neighborhood was awesome. Lots of deer watching and it was so great staying on the river. It was close to many water activities as well. Overall just a great place to stay.

Perfect getaway
Very clean and beautiful location. Deer roaming the huge backyard that will get very close. Neighbors are very friendly and threw out some corn so our 2 year old could see the deer within 10ft. The dock is very peaceful and a wonderful place to hang out in the water. 100% recommend and will be staying there again.

Quiet and comfortable home. Beautiful river view and access from house. Delightful swing under tall shade trees. Peaceful setting to sit on the screened in porch and watch the wildlife roaming through the back yard. Furnishings and bed were comfortable. Large variety of appliances and cookware. Bring your favorite coffee to enjoy in the big coffee mugs! Great for a quiet weekend getaway.

This was the second time for my cousins and me to stay here for a girls weekend and to see a show at Whitewater Amphitheater. It's a great place with everything needed for a short or lengthy stay. There is plenty of inside and outdoor seating, and a private dock right on the river. Great amenities including washer/dryer and icemaker. The kitchen is full of dishes, glasses, pots and pans, etc. It's not too far to Whitewater to walk but we didn't want to walk back in the dark so we drove, but if you're braver than the four of us middle-aged women, you could do it. Lol

Overall the property was great! However, we received a text at 8:30 p.m. while we were already at the location telling us the pull out couch was broken. We were provided with a small air up mattress but one of us still had to sleep on an uncomfortable couch. We understand things happen. Other than that we were very pleased with our stay and would do it again.

Great house in a great location
This is a very nice house that is well maintained. It has two bedrooms - one with a king size bed and one with bunk beds. The kitchen and living room are between the bedrooms. The kitchen is well equipped with pots, pans, dishes, etc., as well as an ice maker in the freezer. I did submit a question and did not receive a response. I'll post here so others will know. I asked what kind of coffee maker is in the kitchen - - it's a drip coffee maker. There are filters in one cabinet so just bring your own coffee for a drip-type machine. The house details say there is a DVD player so we brought some DVDs, but we could not find a DVD player anywhere. The laundry room has a full size washer and dryer.
This house is right on the river. There is a nice view from the back porch areas and you just walk down the back yard right to the water. There's a floating dock with chairs on it and more chairs in the laundry room along with a tube. Very fun time with my cousins!

Quiet and peaceful. Love seeing deer, fox and an owl. Place is small and good for couple maybe 2 kids but that would be all. Small kitchen yet fully equipped. Property is well kept but so under utilized that great view. Bring your own chairs so you can sit down by the water. Very steep walk to the water, no paths. Could really use some updates especially to screen porch. We really enjoyed ourselves but it’s not the ritz.

This is a nice property. Very relaxing and a shady yard which helps with the summer heat. Everything you need to relax. The bbq grill needs some maintenance and the floors could be mopped better but, overall a very nice, clean, relaxing place to stay.

Perfect family getaway
We loved the house and definitely the location on the river. We floated right outside our dock for 2 days and then did the full float down into the horseshoe on day 3. Super fun! The house is great! Comfy beds, a/c works great, and we will be back someday! So much fun and great location for a quick getaway with the family.

Great Excluded Quaint Quiet Backwater Upstream
The home is modest and quaint (older small home with screen porch). Location is Great. Not a place for partying or drinking but definitely a good place for small group or couple and maybe a couple of kids max who are not expecting the Ritz Carlton (more like a really nice large cabin that's maintained to a minimal but very well a/c'd and fairly clean). It met my expectations except I'd brought my 70'sh parents which couldnt get to the river without a lot of effort. Property is Waterfront but its High Above the river with steep incline (sprinklered watered St. Augustine covered slope with no trail or steps). You will get a good workout and strengthen you leg muscles to go back and forth to river. Location is Great for a quiet peaceful relaxing getaway. Full time neighbors across the Street always watching so don't rent if your planning on party. As for river tripping it's backwater on our trip and full of natural debris (but very cold and refreshing). The location is high upriver from all the major traffic and not to far from canyon lake dam. We had a break in weather and it was not too hot. Air temp is much different down by the water which is ice cold and not too deep maybe 5 feet was moving very slow luckily had a raft and paddle which allowed us to paddle down and up stream as it would be frustrating on just tubes. There is an old waterwheel and small dam just down river on private property that has diverted the water so that you must navigate by foot to get back to floating (not for the weak or old as I'd imagine a lot of "boo-boos" and broken ankles happen there) Going over the small dam is not an option as you'll get stuck in the backwash. Its challenge to get around that spot and slow before 1st bridge. Wildlife is abundant (deer, fox, squirrel, and owl). No TV in bedroom and Shower Head in Master Bath was broken and someone had actually used a Band aid to makeshift the shower head (had to hand hold the shower to take. Shower). Other common bathroom has traditional tub and shower and worked fine. Small gas grill was useful for grilling. They have a corn hole game (beware if you leave it your cornhole bags out as deer will take your corn bags as they are actually filled with corn). Overall we thoroughly enjoyed the stay and thumbs up! If I could afford to buy the property I would live there (with improvements in mind). Location and value. It's a quiet place and hope it stays that way so we can come back another day soon.

Great place!
My 12yo said it was his favorite vacation ever and he’s been to Grand Cayman, Disney, Destin, Lake Michigan, etc.
The kitchen was stocked with soap, towels, utensils, everything needed, including coffee filters.
There is a first aid kit, bug spray, laundry detergent, trash bags.
Bathrooms had plenty of toilet paper and towels.
There’s one fishing pole without a hook if you want to fish.
We bought tubes from Costco and often played off the dock or floated down around the horseshoe. You can also rent tubes from nearby tubing places. Bring your own beach towels!
I loved reading and drinking coffee on the screened in porch in the mornings. There was a lot of wildlife spotted, including deer, fox, hawk, lizards, and hummingbird.
We will definitely stay here again next time we visit family!

Super Great Place!
We have never done a home rental for vacation before.
WE ARE SOLD!
This is a great house with an amazing view. It is comfy, homey and it was perfect for our family vacation!!
The property (home and grounds) are taken care of and in great shape.
We went to the river every evening (right down the back yard), saw deer and foxes every day and evening. One night we even saw an owl.
We were secluded in the deep parts of nature but close enough to get to the store and restaurants within minutes.
I cannot say enough about how much we LOVED staying here and are hoping to come back. We have already told several friends and they want to stay here as well.
