About this property
Hip Cabin w/ Deck by San Marcos River!
DESCRIPTION:
True to its name, "The River" rests near the San Marcos River, offering a charming getaway in central Texas. Whether you're here to tube the river, love fly-fishing, or are in town to visit Texas State in San Marcos, this 1-bedroom + loft, 1-bathroom vacation rental cabin has it all! With 3 flat-screen TVs, comfortable accommodations for 6 guests and a spacious covered deck, this cozy home ensures a great stay. While you're in town, visit Staples Historic Park or make the trip to New Braunfels!
THE PROPERTY:
Master Bedroom – Queen Bed
2nd Bedroom/Loft – 2 Queen Beds
Winter Texans will love this cabin, which is outfitted with all of the comforts of home – kick back and relax in your bright 399-square-foot abode that features a bonus loft (200 sqft)! The interior is furnished with pieces inspired by the San Marcos River, and the house boasts seasonal specials to make it easier than ever to get away!
Take it easy on the couch in the living area, where the broad picture windows let the natural light stream in and the flat-screen TV will keep you entertained. The fully stocked coffee bar ensures that you'll have delicious brews to sip while you kick back.
The well-equipped kitchen has everything you need. Change things up and use the charcoal grill in the yard. However you cook your meal, the spacious covered porch features plenty of seating for everyone to unwind and dine al fresco.
Head to the park with your four-legged friend to unwind as the sun goes down. As you retire for the night, both the bedroom and the loft feature plush queen beds for everyone to have a peaceful night's sleep.
If you're traveling with more than 6 guests, check the availability of our other Cabins. We can accommodate large parties as we offer 5 different Cabins for rent. Please inquire about large party rates.
