San Marcos Riverfront/Sleeps 18/2 acres

Summary:
The San Marcos River Haus is the perfect family getaway. Enjoy a private, gated retreat on 2 acres, the River Haus is the perfect blend of luxury living and rustic charm. The property has plenty of indoor and outdoor spaces for the whole family to be together or get quiet time if needed. Quiet times from 10:00 pm-10:00 am please. We would love for you to visit and have a wonderful time but no hooting and hollering outside after 10:00 pm. We respect our neighbors rights to get good rest.

The Space:
2486 square feet of rustic luxury with an excellent river view. There are two master bedrooms, each with its own oversized private bathroom and private entrance. The open kitchen is well situated for entertaining your family and friends. The garage is equipped with a shuffleboard table, foosball table, and games for the kids. There are 3 kayaks and fishing gear for you to enjoy. Relaxation is the goal! With so many different spaces to choose from, inside and outside you will enjoy your time at the River Haus.

Guest Access:
The entire home is yours to enjoy! Check in will be a breeze, there is a coded lock that will be set up with a code just for you. Please park in front of the garage only.

The Neighborhood:
The River Haus is situated in a secluded, secure, gated community. Feel free to stroll through the neighborhood, ride bikes, and play in the great outdoors. There is a spring-fed creek that runs down one side of the property, so feel free to take the little ones on a crawfish hunt!

Getting Around:
We are located minutes from downtown San Marcos, walking distance from several toobing companies, and nestled in the historic and private Riverbend community.

Other Things to Note:
We highly recommend checking out our favorite spots in and around San Marcos:
The Aquarena Springs Glass Bottom Boat tour-you will learn all about the San Marcos river (this is where is begins and it floats right by the River Haus) see fish and turtles swimming by.
There are so many amazing places to eat! Try Herbet's Taco Hut or The Tap Room (their burgers are crazy good!)

Interaction with Guests:
There are two hosts available to chat/text/talk. We are always monitoring our phones to make sure that you are comfortable. Our goal is to provide a 5 star experience and ensure that all of your needs are met.

Worst experience of a home rental we’ve had
Our family drives through the gate which the host had given us a code for. The code is of no use because there is no keypad to enter the code, and the gate had not worked in a long time. Like the gate, the garage has no key pad like listed. The garage is unlocked, dirty and messy. Walk up to door, the door handle comes off in my hand. Walk inside, musty, nasty smell greets us. The house was not cleaned since the previous guests!! Trashes are full, the kitchen and bathroom are nasty & not clean, the bedding and wet towels are piled up in various rooms. I try to message the host several times, but the ENTIRE week he doesn’t respond! I call the host number on file with VRBO, and it’s out of service! I sent my oldest to BUY cleaning supplies, and I stayed up way into the night washing bedding and towels to get 5 beds ready for my kids and myself. The west unit ac didn’t work at all; it said “error and no power” so instead of using the entire house liked planned, we used half of it. We were there 5 days, and the owner/ host never got in touch with me, when previously when I had 2 questions prior to booking, he replied within the hour. And on top of that we paid a $300 cleaning fee for me and my kids to clean the entire house. Many more things I could add and pics, but you get the gist! We have rented NUMEROUS houses, and this experience was by far the worst!

Fantastic stay San Marcos Riverfront
Spacious home, great for large families or groups visiting Sam Marcos, situated 6 miles (15 minutes) from Old Main. A great location for enjoying the river, offering direct access to a small dock on the river bank. Home is back from the neighbors on a large lot. We had solitude on both the front and back porch areas. The house is an ideal retreat. It is clean and comfortable, and everything we needed was provided. Both drip and k-cup coffee pots are available, so bring pods if that's your preference. The back deck is equipped with three grills: gas, smoker, or charcoal. The host communicated well and provided information on the property, river, and local attractions. We had a fantastic stay and would definitely book again.

Beautiful comfortable stay
My family and I stayed here for a graduation. Everyone loved the home and was comfortable staying there. We enjoyed the kayaks and fishing gear even though it was raining most of the time we were there. There was enough space for all of us to be comfortable. Overall a very memorable stay for all of us!
