About this house rental

Nestled in Wimberley, this charming house for $285 per night is a fantastic choice for your next break. Little House on the Blanco @ Shade Ranch is a one bedroom one bath stone house on 40 acres nestled along the Blanco River among the mighty oaks of the TX Hill Country. The house is fully stocked with kitchen supplies, linens and paper products and soap. The house is set up for a couple or a small family of no more than 5 people. We ask that no more than 3 adults stay given space and septic constraints. Shade Ranch consists of 40 private acres and 600+ feet of Blanco riverfront land. There are two houses on the property that we make available, the Little House and Casa Grande. Casa Grande is a 3 bedroom/2 bathroom home of 2800 square feet. The two houses are completely separate and don't share anything other than the land. They each have their own hot tubs, patios, grills and fire pits. The houses sit approximately 100 yards apart and are separated by a bank of cedar trees and a cedar privacy fence. I provide guests with all of details needed for check in along with a list of items provided at the house. Guests are not required to meet with anyone upon arrival, but rather will be given access codes to let themselves into the house. I am available by phone, text or email before and during your stay to help with any questions or issues that may arise. We are 5 minutes away from the Wimberley square with all of the local shops, restaurants and the grocery stores. So, while you feel that you're out in the country the conveniences of Wimberley are very close. Guests have full access to the house and our 40 acres and 600+ feet of Blanco Riverfront. You can feel free to explore the land to hike, bird watch or look for other wildlife. Gaze at a gorgeous sunset or sunrise on the river or from the picnic table on the bluff above. Grab your rod and discover what Flyfishing magazine called 'one of the best fly fishing spots in Texas, on the Blanco River.' Take a swim in the clear blue waters of the Blanco River. Enjoy a picnic or a nap or a book along its banks. Dine in the covered porch watching the deer graze and maybe see the rare violet-ear hummingbirds that have been known to visit. Get cozy on the couch to watch a movie or just listen to music on the Sonos speakers. You will find a wonderful, large outdoor hot tub right off the covered porch. It is a private place to unwind while admiring the brilliant stars above and the quiet solitude of Shade Ranch. Little House on the Blanco @ Shade Ranch has so much to offer with its 40 peaceful acres, private river access, a fully equipped kitchen, open dining areas inside or on the covered porch (with Weber propane grill), and a large bedroom with a queen size comfortable bed. The house is intended for couples or a small family with young children. We ask that there be no more than 3 adults given space and septic constraints. There is also a great outdoor stone fire pit with stone benches, perfect for roasting marshmallows or warming up on a cool Hill Country evening. Located only 5 minutes from Wimberley Square, this home completes the perfect hill-country getaway without sacrificing any of the charm (or shopping opportunities) that Wimberley has to offer. And with high-speed/wireless Internet and satellite TV, you won't sacrifice the conveniences of modern technology, either. There is also a larger 3 bedroom house on the same property. The houses are completely separate and don't share anything other than the acreage. The houses sit approximately 100 yards apart and have a bank of cedar trees and a large cedar privacy fence that sit between the houses and create separate areas for privacy. You'll need a car to get to and from the property. You can walk to town, but it will take you approximately 20 minutes.

Our second time to stay here and it was just as perfect as the first. Everything inside is perfectly appointed and we did not lack for anything. The setting is ideal, as well! Love the crisp clean air and beautiful woods to roam. The river was low this time, and we enjoyed exploring all around the area. Thank you, Roby for an A+ experience. We will be back!

We had a great time staying at the cabin! It was perfect for our family! We loved hanging in the hot tub, making a bonfire, and watching all the deer around. This house was great - very clean and had everything we needed for a great weekend. Thanks!

The property was peaceful, clean, had everything that you needed and felt safe and really convenient in proximity to town but especially the river and so much nearby to take advantage of and really loved seeing the wildlife and how comfortable they were as if we weren’t even there. Instructions were all very thorough and made it so easy from check-in to check out. Overall a great stay and so nice to get out of the city.

This makes for the third or fourth time my wife and I have spent our anniversary at Shade Ranch, and each year has been as good as the previous. The property is amazing, the cabin is perfect and the swimming hole always has water. We will continue to book this property as long as it’s available

My wife and I were looking for a place to go for a relaxing weekend. We had such a great time. This place was really peaceful and quiet. We enjoyed relaxing in the river and hot. Wimberley has some very cool and unique shops to visit. We will definitely be back to Wimberley and Shade Ranch is our first choice.

We loved this property. So close to lots of great restaurants and shops but still very private and secluded since it is on 25 acres. The river was great. This is one of the very few places I could find that has river access and still has enough water to swim in. The hot tub was amazing and the cabin very clean and it had everything we needed. We will definitely be back.
