A short distance from ecotours, cave exploring, and more, this luxury vacation home lets you experience it all. Jump into your car and tackle the 47-minute drive to Guadalupe River or the 31-minute drive to Guadalupe River State Park (and enjoy of the property's convenient covered onsite parking in the meantime).

Relax by the outdoor pool (enjoy the sun loungers!) or sip a drink on the furnished balcony/patio of this vacation home, which also features a garden and a firepit. For a change of scenery, come inside and try your hand at table tennis and billiards, or enjoy the free WiFi, digital TV, and Netflix.

This 5-bedroom, 7-bathroom rental features a sitting area, a dining area, hypo-allergenic bedding, and a charcoal grill. Bathroom amenities include a hair dryer, free toiletries, and towels. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a full-sized refrigerator/freezer, as well as an espresso maker, a minibar, and an ice maker. And because there's access to laundry facilities, you can go a bit lighter on your packing.
