About this property

Frio Déjà Vu River House – Secluded Hill Country Getaway

Unwind, relax, and feel at home at Frio Déjà Vu River House — a cozy 4-bedroom, 2-bath home in the heart of the Hill Country. Located on the clear West Prong of the Frio River, just 12 miles north of Leakey. Tucked away in the peaceful and star-filled Rancho Real canyon, this 1,700 sq ft home enjoys private riverfront access, perfect for floating, fishing, or simply soaking up the sun.

Ideal for friend groups or families, the home is designed for memory-making with various indoor and outdoor games and river recreation steps away. Whether you’re stargazing, listening to the call of whippoorwills or spending a lazy day by the river, Frio Déjà Vu is your home for unforgettable Hill Country adventures.

Although riverfront, the home is safely outside the floodplain and has never flooded.

Garner State Park, Lost Maples State Park, Concan, and Leakey are all just minutes away, and the property is located off FM 336 — one of the renowned "Three Sisters" scenic routes, a motorcyclist and nature lover's favorite. Bikers welcome but please note there is a water crossing on the way to the house.

NOTE: Your safety matters. This property features a Ring camera device with an exterior security camera facing the front outdoor entry. The camera does not look into any interior spaces.

House was extremely clean. Just a few yards from the river. River was clear, we didn’t catch many fish but we had a great time floating and playing. This place was great. AC was cold and plenty of hot water. And beautiful scenery! Kudos!

Wonderful home

We loved this home. It was so nice and secluded but close enough to town. It was peaceful and we loved hearing and watching all the birds! The beds were very comfy and the AC was amazing! We had all the kitchen utensils we needed. We loved going for walks in the evening down the dirt road. Unfortunately the only thing we weren’t crazy about was the river. It was really warm compared to the other parts of the frio we’ve been to in the past. We’ve never stayed on the west frio so that was new for us. We walked down and plopped some chairs in and the kids loved the kayak too. The level was perfect for our 3, 4, and 5 year old kids. But we went to garner on other days and it was perfect. Loved this home! Thank you so much for sharing your home with us. You won’t regret booking here.

Great river property

My family has been going to the Frio for 13 years now and this is this is such a great place to stay. Deja vu is private and couldn’t ask for easier access to river, just walk across the yard! Absolutely recommend this place to all my friends.

Beautiful Property, beautiful scenery day and night lots of memories made! Kayaking was fun but only one had a plug to stop the water from coming in but we made it work. Pet friendly, after all day outdoors, we had a night of food and card games! My family all enjoyed our stay! Hoping to return again!

About the host

Hosted by Julia Besetzny

We are a family of 6 who love all things Texas especially the Frio River. We enjoy traveling and making memories at Déjà Vu. The home has been shared with many over the years and many have returned, hence the name Déjà Vu.

Why they chose this property

This property was originally the home where a great family of five were raised. In 2016 we got together and bought the property to keep it in the family. After over a little over a year of hard work, blood, and sweat we have what you see now. We love to share this gem with others to make lasting memories with friends and family.

What makes this property unique

Probably one of the most unique things about his property is the seclusion. Out here the lack of light and noise pollution is amazing and hard to describe without experiencing. Having all that and the benefit of the Frio River and the proximity to places like Garner State Park, Lost Maples State Natural Area, and Concan make it all so appealing.
