Frio River at property ID 7148858
We drove over three hours to stay on the Frio River at this location. Upon arrival we saw the cabin and found it to be ok.
Not seeing the river we drove the car quite a distance and arrived at a river bank. Walking down the steep bank with the help of a rope attached to a tree...we discovered the Frio at this site was only a few inches deep. A note in the cabin stated there were hole up-river or down that were deeper... (never found). The river bed is all wet rocks and being over 65 years old navigating the rocks is a profile in courage.
I'm sure in years past, this looked like the old photos showing water over one's knees or waists with tubing, etc...not BELOW ankles as we discovered.
When encountering one owner, she declared WE should have known better...as all the SW is in drought!
I would never drive three hours in future, before checking with Texas Water Conditions, ...waterdata.usgs.gov/tx.
AND check conditions AT THAT specific property, as conditions vary...(AND we read on property, that one must stay in the river bed looking for deeper holes...as most land touching the "river" is Privately Held, so NO driving to alleged, upstream potential "deeper water."
We would never come back to the Frio until the "Mega-drought" is over and water is at least over one's knees.
One good experience was observing the birds from the porch.
We booked for 3 nights and told the hosts we were checking out after only one night...due to water conditions.
We never received any refund or credit and found them very unsympathetic.
Caveat Emptor!
