From the backyard, one can overlook the Guadalupe River with an unobstructed view of the opposing riverbank and undeveloped limestone cliffs. The yard is shaded by huge Cedar Elm and Oak trees, and is perfect for outdoor lounging on the deck as well as a Stone Fire-Ring seating area, with firewood provided.
