About this property

Quiet Cabin on the River Near Downtown Bastrop

Nothing has these views or access to the river! Superb! Over one acre where you can access the river if you are physically capable to go down the short embankment (where you may get muddy or wet). Ask about canoe and tubing rentals. Fisherman love this spot of the river as well. Secluded 3/2 Cabin with incredible river views from almost every room! The home sits high on an acre lot close to the end of the road. Private master suite with balcony. Open floor plan with a kitchen island and step down living room. Washer and dryer provided. Only a mile from downtown Bastrop or cross the river! Great small, quite space for a special meeting or retreat. Family and pet friendly. The river side has a fenced in area for pets or children to play.
Recently upgraded to Sleep Number beds in the master and one of the secondary bedrooms. In addition to the twin beds in the secondary bedroom, additional twin beds are available.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Nice weekend getaway.

Enjoyed fishing, campfire and taking it easy on the lake. Nice place to getaway from the city and take in nature. Even saw some horses by the river while fishing. Recommend this property to anyone looking to get away and have a nice relaxing weekend.

Amazing, safe stay with plenty of room for the kids and dogs!

We had the pleasure of staying here over an extended three day weekend. It was the perfect stay. The house was clean, roomy, and well stocked. The kids had plenty of room to run around, as did the dogs. We enjoyed beautiful mornings sipping our coffee outside, sitting in the big yard, and splashing in the water. At night, we made s’mores by the fire and enjoyed watching the beautiful night sky. We’d definitely come here!

Complete peace! Open space and family

Five days for Thanksgiving we had fires sitting around the fire! Fishing on the river, surrounded by trees and woodpeckers a few deer, but the best was a fully fenced in huge yard, and they welcomed my fur babies! Five minutes from downtown Bastrop easy access to Bucky’s on an adventure in walking the strip into the cute little shops! The windows in the bedrooms are magnificent with a view of the river and the sun coming through!

Memorable Stay

We absolutely enjoyed our month-long stay here. Stunning river view, and the river was easily accessible. Strong wifi allowed me to run my home office set up, while husband streamed movies. The host was super responsive, and went above and beyond. And, we enjoyed watching the deer in the mornings and evenings. Top notch, first rate experience. Highly recommend!

We had an amazing time. The house is set up perfectly for families and even pets. House eas clean and organized. Sonya is a great host. She took the time to communicate with us before our stay. Super helpful information about the house and the Bastrop area was provided. We were even allowed to check in a little early. Hope to stay here again and would definitely recommend to anyone.

Wonderful cabin

Our crew had a great time relaxing at this lovely cabin on the river. We brought my 14 year old daughter and her friends for a birthday celebration. Everyone had a great time checking out the wildlife (we saw a beautiful owl!), enjoying s'mores around the firepit, and exploring the shops on Main St. in Bastrop. Sonya was a great host and checked in with us prior to our visit to ensure everything was setup to our liking. Check-in and check-out was a breeze! Would definitely recommend this great gem to folks looking for a place to relax and unwind.

A lovely, serene home away from home

This place was just incredible. The inside of the house is super clean and beautifully decorated with so many options for sleeping arrangements and so much seating for the whole group. The outside is incredibly beautiful and very well maintained. There's a fence surrounding the huge yard and that is just amazing if you've got kids or dogs. The patio was our favorite place because it's spacious and the view is very peaceful. It's surprisingly close to the city. Less than a 10 minute drive to any amenities you need, including the cute downtown area. Sonya, the host, was very responsive and helpful. An amazing host, to say the least. Hands down, the perfect place to stay if you're in the area.

Great location, great property

We loved our stay here. We had everything we needed at this little gem on the river. Unfortunately the recent rains kept us from kayaking and fishing like we had wanted, but we will likely be back to visit again and give it another shot. The beds were comfortable. We ate out some and cooked some. The location and amenities served both well. The back yard has excellent shade and the fenced in area is great if you had little ones or pets. We did not this time. We also enjoyed sitting out on the back patio at night. Until we needed the store or a restaurant we forgot how close to town we were, it was very quiet. We had such a great time hanging out here after the Mud Girl Races.

Overall Rating

The online listing did not match the actual propoerty. I had to reach out to coordinate check in; I was never sent instructions. The outside needs a face lift and the inside had cobwebs and dirt. The overall place felt unclean. The linens were not fresh and there were stains on a few of them. We also learned that the water heater was out so we did not have hot water for showers, laundry, etc. I asked the renter for a discount due to these problems with no response or help on the price. I would not recommend renting this property until the propoerty manger or owners fix these issues.

About the host

Hosted by Sonya Mallett

Host profile image
I am a real estate broker that has lived in Bastrop County for over 30 years. I am also a wife and mother, so together you get a whole family working together to manage our property. My daughter Merry takes great care of making guests feel welcome, preparing the home with me before each guest arrives. She always asks who is coming, and asks earnestly when a guest leaves if they left a review. She loves to know if she can make your stay more comfortable.

Why they chose this property

This was my father's "dream house" when I was a teenager. When this hit the market, I bought it for him to move to. He stayed here for a while, but didn't like living alone.
Our oversized family moved here during a transition in 2013. We said it was only temporary, but stayed until the 2015 floods. After the flood, we raised the house and remodeled. We still love our river-adventure house!

What makes this property unique

We love the river views. My kids love traipsing over the large lot and down to the river. They didn't mind the mud or the steep embankments or the occasional snake they would meet and made good use of canoes and kayaks. I also miss how close to town everything is! And the neighborhood is very quiet. We would often walk to town or to school.
