Toad Hall 1 is a secluded, upscale vacation rental located directly on the South Fork of the Guadalupe River in Hunt, Texas. REMODELED IN 2008!
VISIT OUR WEBSITE for RATES/AVAILABILITY
YOU DON'T HAVE TO RENT THE WHOLE PROPERTY!!! We rent out each house individually too. Small groups (up to 4) are perfect for the Small Cottage, Medium groups are great for the Large Cottage (up to 7), and Large groups can rent out both houses (up to 11).
We are located in the renowned Texas Hill Country, and on one of the few "Scenic Drives" in Texas. Surrounded by limestone bluffs and rolling hills, Toad Hall 1 is also only 30 miles from Lost Maples State Park, 20 min from Kerrville and 40 min from Fredericksberg, TX. The area is a great place to relax and get away from the stresses of city life. Toad Hall 1 is perfectly located away from loud neighbors and noisy highways.
The property consists of two well-appointed houses. The Small Cottage can sleep a maximum of 4 in one master bedroom and an additional studio with a separate entry. The Large Cottage can sleep 9 in three bedrooms, and a sofa bed.
We just underwent a remodel in 2008. Many upgrades and improvements were made, including remodeled bathrooms/kitchens, granite counters, new tile floors, new carpet, new paint colors, new furniture, and new bedding. Our goal has been to make it feel like you are staying in your own private vacation home, and we think you will really enjoy the changes. The pictures listed are after the remodel.
Time and again guests are amazed and surprised when they arrive. The consensus is that it is even better than it looks online. We love hearing it, as we have really put our heart and attention into making it an amazing place to get away and relax.
We hope that you too will come and experience the Toad Hall 1 Lifestyle.

The Perfect Vacation!

For years, my family has taken trips to Port Aransas and this year we decided to go to the river for a change. Boy are we glad we did! Despite the horrible drought plaguing Texas, the river was cool and clean and the property couldn't have been more perfect. There are some prissy people in my family but everyone raved about how beautiful the houses were (we rented the entire property), the landscaping, the amenities, etc. Everything was clean and well maintained and thoughtfully appointed. We had a wonderful time and will most definitely return!
Owner response:Margie, We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay, and all the details we work really hard on! Thankfully the water keeps on flowing in the Guadalupe, even during the drought too. We look forward to having yall back!
