The Cabin at River Run serves up everything for those who love the great outdoors! This five-acre spread on the banks of the Guadalupe River is the perfect setting for fishing, swimming, or a relaxing tube ride on the water. It's located just a stone's throw from Kerrville, so you'll also be situated close to all the restaurants, shopping, and events offered there. Inside and out, the luxurious amenities at the Cabin at River Run makes it one of the best river cabins in the Texas Hill Country!

There's no better way to savor the Texas Hill Country than the riverside setting of the Cabin at River Run! The rural location, in tandem with its closeness to Kerrville, makes it one of the best weekend getaways in Texas, no matter what's on your itinerary. This cozy getaway vacation spot houses up to four, and kids are also welcome. The property shares access to the Guadalupe River with two other cabins and several RV's, but on this spacious lot, neighborly congeniality is assured!

Since the Cabin at River Run is a tree-lined riverfront property, you'll have your own little slice of the Guadalupe to use as you please! Fish or swim from the shore, or use the natural tube shoot (located right by the nearby island) for a peaceful float down the river. Just want to kick back? No problem! There's a shaded deck, picnic table, and charcoal grill for your outdoor gatherings-all decked out with patio furniture. This weekend getaway cabin is also pet-friendly; bring your four-legged friends along, let them romp, or take them along on a sightseeing hike. Animal lovers will be rewarded when they catch a glimpse of the wildlife that uses the Guadalupe to wet their whistles.

Inside, you'll find a warm and welcoming Lone Star-themed decor, with a queen bed and double futon that comfortably sleep up to four. There's a bath with shower, satellite TV with a DVD player, and heat and A/C for inside comfort. The kitchen is equipped with a microwave, oven and range top, fridge and coffee pot. All bed and bath linens are included. There is no land line phone on the premises, but good cell coverage is available. Washer and dryer facilities are included, located at the nearby Bath House.

Vacation
My husband and I had never been to this property before. I had gotten a call from Spencer the beginning of the week and the cabin we had rented that the AC had went out and he had asked if he could move me to a park model or he would refund me in full. I told him I was fine with the park model. So, I did speak with Spencer several times before our visit, and he was amazing and so accommodating. We have stayed at alot of cabins all over. This was a beautiful property and the park model we stayed in was very nice and clean which those are the most important things. We had a great time and will go back. Side note the property has a ton of deer that just hang out in front of the cabins.

Great getaway
The place was exactly as advertised. Cabin was small but had plenty of room for my husband and me to be comfortable and even cook an anniversary steak dinner! Dave was great at communicating and having everything ready for us. His little dog even acted as the welcoming committee (which we enjoyed having dogs ourselves). There are other cabins so we would consider bring our kids with us next time and staying in one of those.

Our new get away!
River Run, Kerrville, TX. Early spring and the trees were still bare of leaves. This little private getaway was very peaceful and a beautiful setting. The best of both worlds; secluded in the woods with a creek and not far from the small town Kerrville and all it has to offer. Perfect location! We rented "The Lodge" that can accommodate 4. It was just my husband and I with our 2 GD's. We had brought the dogs bedding, but was cheerfully greeted by on grounds management, David and his little pup and we were quickly offered a cover for the futon for our at-home couch potato pooches. Of course, we excepted and it made it easier for our stay without feeling the need for "NO to the couch" training! Very dog friendly! The accommodations were perfect for the 2 of us to get by for the couple of days we were there. Very clean. The A/C was cold and hot water was hot! Every cooking utensil you needed to fix meals on site, if needed. Ice trays and a full ice caddy were waiting. Although, we brought our own coffee, there was some in the cupboard with the filters and a canister full of sugar and basics like salt and pepper too. However, there was no place for us to transfer our clothing. The only closet was full of extra sheets and supplies leaving room to hang a few things, but that was all. There was two 4-hook spots on either side of the room we used for jackets and leashes. We placed our luggage on the floor and lived out of that. A Captains bed with drawers underneath would be perfect for this room. And PLEASE a new bed on a sturdier frame...a Cptns bed would also solve that! Lol Also, turn the bed between the windows to face the t.v. and there would still be room to unfold the futon. I hope mgmnt will give it a try. We're nappers and black out curtains would make it cozier in the day and keep headlights out at night. Bathroom was clean, but only 1 towel bar may hold a hand towel low, over the toilet and only ONE hook next to the shower. Not set to accommodate more than 2! I would suggest 4 hooks to hold towels side by side by the shower and one small hook or hand towel bar on the door side wall over sink. Very little space around the sink to place anything. It was quite the juggle for the 2 of us. Would be nice to have small shelves or a cabinet on the wall for guest storage or exchange the under sink storage for the guests and put the extra towels in the wall storage. Would greatly help!! All said, we found our pet friendly get away. WE'LL be back!!

Great overall
We stayed for 2 nights so the kids could experience glamorous camping, this spot doesn’t disappoint. I was impressed how stocked the cabin was, soap, paper towels, even firewood for campfire and charcoal for the grill. Enjoyed the deer while sitting on the porch having coffee. River is great depth for young kids and our dog had a blast.
