Far Exceeds Expectations

We were honored to be able to spend time at The Swift's Cozy Barn-dominium. Everything we needed was provided and our time on the Llano river could not have been better. It was very comfortable and perfect for spending time with family. Cannot wait to return. Thank you Charles!

Very Cozy little cabin with all the amenties you could need. Charlie is very freindly and helpful if yiu need anything. The best part of the property is the access to a deep part of the Llano River. We spent most of our time in the river and then star gazing at night.

About the host

Hosted by Charlie Swift

Host profile image
I spent most of my childhood in Abilene, Texas and my wife, Joanna, spent hers in San Antonio. We're retired now, from an oilfield career, and live on property above the rental about an 8 minute walk. I tend to a small wine grape vineyard and pecan orchard. Joanna raises chickens, lots of chickens! We look forward to hosting because we love people.

Why they chose this property

We've owned this sixty acre piece of earth for more than twenty years but only lately have decided to rent it. It's as pretty a site as there could be on the Llano River. It's rural and off the pavement a ways so solitude and peace are all around.

What makes this property unique

Without a doubt location and access to the River is unique. Also having seven acres of a river view "park" to lounge and picnic in.
