Vacation rentals with a fire pit in San Marcos River

Clean and comfy near everything in the city

The house and the yard was fantastic. It has a large kitchen, and living area . The sofa was so comfortable, nice and had plenty seating. I now want to go buy one just like it. The kids room was great. They had a tent with toys in which my 2 year old niece. The outdoor deck and fenced in yard was my favorite. My little corgi dog was so exited to run around and go stare at the cows and neighbors dog. There is a play scape/funhouse, tree swing , and a zip line. We got to see the cows in the back twice and they are beautiful . Amber left snacks for the kiddos by and keurig coffee supplies and tea. The beds were comfy and had soft quilts instead of thick comforters. Everything was very nice and clean and kid and dog friendly .

Amazing stay everyone loved it! Beautiful views and I loved seeing the wildlife interacting on the property. 100% would come again!!

Came here with a group of 9 and we felt right at home. Laura had thought of everything and we did not go without! The views were amazing and the beds were very comfortable. Great location if you're looking to go tubing or to Canyon Lake. Laura was also super responsive and attentive to our needs. Only complaint is that our vacation wasn't long enough! Will absolutely be back again!

My extended family of seven adults stayed for a week. The house was pristine, and we appreciated the cleanliness. The house had great A/C although my parents didn’t discover the second thermostat in the room with 3 beds until the last day. There was plenty of space for us to spread out and have privacy. It was terrific to have 3 full bathrooms. The only complaint we have doesn’t have anything to do with the house or the owners. It was the water hyacinth that filled the river. We had high hopes of hanging out in the water right in front of the house and that wasn’t possible. We did float the river, but we had to be dropped off upriver. And we got out at Don’s Fish Camp because there was too much hyacinth in the river for us to easily float to the house. I mention this problem because people need to know that river access might not be as expected during certain times of the year when the hyacinth is exploding. Other than the river issues, we loved our stay.

We've had some amazing hosts and Christina is definitely top 3! So friendly and helpful. I asked about the grill (it's charcoal). She said a store (1/2 mile away) had charcoal, but when we showed up a full bag was waiting by the grill! We had such a relaxing time at her place. Plenty of firewood and kindling, so we used the fire pit every evening (actually saw a great-horned owl one night!). If you want to get away, this is the place.

Overall great stay. Super cute and well appointed / decorated. Great for couples on romantic getaways or smaller groups. Very close to the river which was a great surprise. There are apothecary / spa items there, but recommend bringing your own to really enjoy the tubs. There is a home immediately behind that it shares a wall with, otherwise fairly secluded and private.

This place was exactly as advised and Cynthia was a wonderful host. We had a wonderful time at the house and at the river and Cynthia brought us some cookies on a last day by the river. What a wonderful home and property to share with visitors. Thank you!

I recently returned for my second stay at this fantastic Airbnb in San Antonio, and I couldn't be happier! Richie is incredibly welcoming and focused on ensuring my stay is perfect. The space itself is immaculate and beautifully decorated, blending comfort with style. I loved the cozy living room. The bed was incredibly comfortable, making it easy to recharge after exploring the city. This time we also used the pool which was extremely refreshing. Location-wise, it's perfect. Just a short drive to all the main attractions, yet located in a peaceful neighborhood. You are right on the Riverwalk so it’s super easy to walk to almost all key locations. Overall, my experience was just as great as the first time! I can't recommend this place enough and look forward to my next visit. Thank you for another memorable stay!

Highly recommend. Peaceful and serene. Beautiful space. Loved the front porch with rockers and a table and chairs. High ceilings, nice interior and very comfortable beds. Loved the friendly cats. Hope we will be fortunate enough to visit again. Hosts were very helpful, warm, and gracious. Thanks for letting us stay in your cottage.

Peaceful & just what I needed for a “me treat”

Couldn’t have asked for a better Airbnb experience. Reinhard & Caroline’s place is in the perfect location. Close to everything and safe surroundings. The Airbnb was very clean, bed was actually really comfortable, perfect amount of space. I would definitely stay here again.

Our stay was so peaceful and pleasant! The homemade Greek cookies were the icing on the cake! Short drive to downtown, minimal street traffic and the cowboy tub was the perfect temp for an evening hangout! Will stay again!

We needed a place to stay after selling our house and before moving out of Austin a few days after. The location and house were great, and Molly was very responsive, flexible and helpful!

Very pleasant place to return to when the day is done! Very close to restaurants and other attractions. Great neighborhood and host.

What a wonderful host and place to stay. This house is located right at the heart of downtown Buda and is a short walk to all the fun stuff to do around town. Not only that, the hosts are amazing and go above and beyond your typical host. For example, I lost an AirTag during my stay and within an hour of me leaving, they already had the AirTag in the mail. Would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to stay in Buda!

Amazing cozy place! Enjoyed every minute of my stay! Host was super friendly:) Would most definitely like to go back soon!

This was my second time staying at cedar cabin with my husband & mother/kids. We love the views and fire pit. You feel like you’re at a secluded cabin but everything is a short drive away! We will definitely be back!

Micheal was extremely responsive and helpful and the air bnb itself was absolutely phenomenal! Everyone who came with us really enjoyed the space, pool and other amenities! Definitely Highly recommend!!

Had the best time at this place! It's a 20 minute drive from Wimberly, but when you're there, it feels completely remote. The hot tub was great, even in the summer heat, and everything worked perfectly. The kitchen is well stocked, and it was easy to bring some groceries and make a meal when we weren't having dinner in Wimberly. Getting cell signal was tough out there, but that made it easy to finish my book! There is also a lot of fun nature watching through the windows and on the patio. I would come back here again.

Vesper Lodge is a lovely home! The decor of the home and styling of the bathrooms, bedrooms, and kitchen are on point. I appreciate attention to details which result in at home comfort like hand soap, room spray, diffuser, sound machines, fans, copious amount of kitchen tools, and a plethora of blankets. We are looking forward to visiting sometime during the winter so we can better enjoy the fire pit, back patio, and the fireplace. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely space with us!

If you enjoy peace and quiet this is the place ! I could sit on the porch and watch the humming birds for hours. The property is beautiful and Brigitte & Shawn are wonderful host. We will definitely be coming back to visit.

This was my second time staying at this amazing place, and it won’t be the last! The location is absolutely perfect—right in the heart of the Hill Country, close to all the best shopping and fun spots like Wimberley. After a fun day out, coming back to this clean, fresh, and super cozy home was just what I needed. The host was also kind enough to offer a late checkout, which was such a nice bonus. I seriously can’t recommend this place enough—already looking forward to my next stay!

We loved this cozy place! It’s surrounded in nature’s beauty, has everything you might need for cooking and relaxing, and is so cozy! Absolutely adored our stay. Yes there are neighbors, but it still feels serene and private.
