About this property

Cedar River Retreat & Hideaway

Bring your family or friends for a peaceful getaway to unplug and unwind. Take a short walk or drive to Ericson Lake for fishing or swimming. Head just a mile into Ericson for some of the best food around between 2 restaurants and 1 cafe. Cabin is a cozy unique space with sleeping for 8-10 guests. A beautifully built deck overlooks your private pond, with a winding staircase down to a built in fire pit. Custom grilling packages available to add-on to enhance your stay.
The space
This little cabin is a dream getaway to relax, unplug, and unwind. No one will know you are even back in this little nook overlooking your own private pond. Less than a mile from town and the Ericson Lake. Go out and do all the local lake and river activities, or stay tucked away! Great for short weekend getaways or longer stays with so many surrounding area events year round.
Other things to note
To enhance your stay, we offer grilling packages delivered to the cabin prior to your stay from our local locker. Options include steaks, brats, polish, hamburger patties (plain and flavored), breakfast options including farm fresh eggs (properly labeled for retail), breakfast sausage options, bacon, etc. Just send us a message to see what's available.
Check out the options and let us know how we can make your stay even better!

All went well with our stay. We have used this location in the past, so it was nice to know the lay out of the location. Jessica was quick to respond to any communication that I had with her. We were right at home during our stay.

We were at the Cedar River retreat in mid-April for 4 days. Another couple joined us overnight one night. The secluded location was beautiful and quiet with abundant wildlife. We saw wild turkeys, American bald eagles, lots of songbirds, deer, wood ducks, turtles and a muskrat! The deck is a lovely place to hang out and enjoy the view and the quiet. Unfortunately, a fire ban due to drought was in place so we couldn't take advantage of the fire pit. There is a grill also (we didn't use it). The cabin and its furnishings were so cute! There are handmade log chairs with thick cushions, 2 recliners, a sofa and a huge cedar table with benches to seat 8 easily. The kitchen has everything you need, including nice stoneware dishes, copper cups for Moscow mules, a Keurig (huge coffee selection) and grinder. The bathroom is shower only and has lots of thick, thirsty towels. excellent hot water and water pressure. The master bed was too firm for us. The other 2 rooms have a full bed with a twin bunk above it--comfy mattress but a little awkward to get in and out of for us older folks.Jessica was a very responsive communicator on check-in and departure. We were happy and had everything we needed, so didn't have to contact her during our stay. Oh, one more thing...The local "best" restaurant is the Hungry Horse Saloon. Their food and steaks were terrific but beware, they are cash or check only, no cards.

Burwell rodeo weekend

We were here for the rodeo over the weekend. We very much enjoyed the deck with the grill and blackstone, and the stone patio and fire pit by the pond. Very relaxing and enjoyed all the stars at night.

We loved this house! We came to San Antonio for our sons Airforce graduation. We had our 9 month old, our 10 yr old nephew,our 17 year old, our 72 year old mother, and our other 2 boys coming in and out to visit from base. The house was very comfortable and so cute. The boys loved the game room. Bedrooms were spacious and comfortable. They even had a walker available for our baby to play and roam around. The kitchen was perfect for cooking meals and just hanging out. If we ever get to come back this way we will definitely ask for this house again! The owners are super helpful too if you have any questions. Thank you so much for such a lovely space!

This cabin was tucked away. It happened to rain most the time. So didn’t get to enjoy the outside. Cabin is clean I would rate it for 6 adults without using the couch. Plenty of dishes and towels. Would be a nice couples time away. Will rebook next sale.

We had a great visit to an Ericson horse sale and this cabin was the perfect retreat! It was fully stocked with anything you could need. In addition, Jessica helped us with provisions for grilling and it was delicious. We will definitely be back!
