About the host
Hosted by Elizabeth R Manglberger
I have lived in Leakey my entire life. Met my husband at college in Alpine, Texas and brought him back home with me. Eventually he also moved his mother here.
Why they chose this property
My mother-in-law bought this property in 1991 as her retirement home. My husband inherited it so since we already had a home in Leakey, we decided to create a vacation rental. I lost him in 2017 so I acquired partners that do rentals professionally. We have worked hard to gradually update the property and create a comfortable place for your vacation on the banks of the East Branch of the Frio River.
What makes this property unique
The home is located 7 miles north of Leakey with the Frio River as its back yard.
