Location: Wimberley, Hill Country, Texas, USA (A Beautiful 30 Minute Hill Country Drive from Austin, Texas)
Accommodations: House, 3 Bedrooms, 2 Baths (Sleeps 6)
Rio Casita (Little River House) is located in the middle of a beautifully wooded acre of land on the pristine Blanco River. The clear, cool, spring fed river is ideal for kicking back, relaxing, and enjoying nature. Enjoy the abundant wildlife (deer, birds, racoons, and other critters) and get back to nature. Or drive the short three miles along River Road that flanks the Blanco into Wimberley, and take a shopping spree through some of the most unique shops you will see anywhere.
Rio Casita is ideal for lovers and families alike. This is a very romantic spot with plenty of privacy. The kids will love it also. Walk down the easy sloping hill from your back porch and directly into the river.
The portion of the river on this property is perfect for wading and sitting. It is approximately one to two feet deep in most areas. So the kids and dogs can play with no worries and the adults can enjoy an ice cold adult beverage and just sit in the cool waters of the Blanco and let their cares drift away. Life really doesn't get better.
Night time brings a quiet, peaceful darkness that is only interrupted by the shine of the stars away from the city lights. Keep your eyes open in all that star-light because you just might see the ghost of a wandering Apache or Comanche Indian, or even a Spanish Conquistador, both of whom used to roam these magical hills. It's all here, come and enjoy!

What a fantastic place! Even in the rain we had a great time. The river is so relaxing. We didn't even think of work for days. The new back porch & fuirniture were the best. Thanks again.
