Family-friendly vacation rentals in Texas

Incredible remote location to reset and unwind Quiet and beautiful Farm animals around (horses, goats, donkeys) but very friendly and actually fun to interact with Saw coyote one morning (not close to house) Lots of amenities on the property… hot tub, fire pits and separate small house (w AC) to read or sit Porch all around the house that was awesome for sitting and relaxing Wonderful place Will go back !!!

Travis was an exceptional host. He was quick to communicate if anything was needed and offered multiple amenities. The space itself is very private, great for photos especially around the lake, it's just you and nature. If the weather wasn't so cold we definitely would've hit the water. Hadn't ever heard of spicewood before, but would come again! Thank you again Travis!

My husband and I rented this cabin for 3 Days 2 nights anniversary stay. We really enjoyed the seclusion of not being super close to Neighbors, surrounded by trees and nature. It was very peaceful and Serene. The cabin had many amenities to keep us entertained while having romantic evenings. We loved the vaulted ceilings, the large porches, the hot tub, the porch swing was one of my favorite places to sit, and we loved the large two shower head shower. It was also cool that there was trails to the pond and other games to play in the coffee table. We had such a good time there and would recommend this cabin for any reason to go stay there. We hope to return in the future!

Next to the beach and hearing the crash of the wave’s made us feel relaxed. At night walking on the beach and having the waves surround our feet felt so refreshing. Great location and quiet. The management was very friendly and helpful.

The Bunkhouse is amazing! So much attention to detail makes the Bunkhouse a very cozy get away for a couple, family or group. The property has something for everyone! The pool temperature was perfect, beds were super cozy and the kids enjoyed pickleball on the sport court. We enjoyed fresh veggies from the garden and our grandson loved following the chickens around the property. Sandi was an excellent host and treated us with some delicious fresh banana bread! We loved our stay! We will definitely be back!!

This stay was exactly what my husband I needed! I just sat outside and listened to the birds early in the morning, something I also love doing at home. I could've sat outside all day if it wasn't Texas in June! ha! The cabin itself was just as described. The photos do make it seem a bit bigger but honestly, you don't need bigger for 2 people. We went to Canyon to just spend time on the water. After over doing it the first day, we instead, chose to spend our second full day just enjoying the cabin. We had some hot tub time in the afternoon, played board games for a couple of hours, and just rested! For anyone worried about how close the cabin is to the main house, don't worry! It's positioned for privacy! It was so stinking relaxing and I can't wait to go back.

This place was perfect just like the photos. We will definitely be back.

Doug was very responsive to all our our questions during and before the trip. His dogs were great with our 12 year old daughter, they really enjoyed playing in the pool with her. Doug's place was as the photos were and was clean. Great place and host!!

This is a wonderful little log cabin in the woods. We had a very fun stay with our cats. Highly recommended and the host Grady is very friendly and responsive. He makes great coffee and is very sweet to our kitten. We would love to go back whenever we are in the area next time.

This is a great place to stay. It is just as described. We would definitely stay here again.

My second time staying always happy with my stay!

Cozy stay in a great location. Minutes away from plenty of establishments. Host was very friendly and welcoming, felt right at home.

Hands-down, the best campground experience in Texas! Tammy, Tammy, Tammy! Ms. Tammy is the mayor of Dos Rios, and along with her sidekick, Roger and Nikki and Richard, this place is heaven. I am legit a better person for having stayed there. I can’t wait to go back.

Rebecca is a lovely host was responded quickly from my initial inquiry to follow up questions. Check in was easy and the space was cozy, clean, peaceful, and my favorite part was getting to feed the cows. I would highly recommend and look forward to returning for a visit.

Amazing place with an amazing view and tons to do! You’re never bored with all the activities they provide! I highly recommend booking, I know I will again!!

A beautiful property with so much space to explore. Well-maintained and marked trails through prairies, meadows, pastures, woods, and even streams. Perfect for a family that loves the outdoors! Great host--very responsive and helpful.

Super cool property. Courtyard and fountain like out of a movie.

Cute little condo. The complex could use a little TLC; but the condo was super clean. It’s a little on the small side; with four adults it was a bit tight. Two pools and two hot tubs on premise. Beds were comfortable and the AC was super cold! I appreciated the keypad; instead of having to fumble for a key! There were beach towels and toys for our use as well. Literally across the street from the beach; and next to Wal Mart. We were able to book two nights with her for about half the price of a hotel. Definitely worth checking out!

John & Sherri were very responsive when i had any questions, and are just down to earth people.

This was my sixth stay at Martha and Jim’s, and it truly feels like a peaceful oasis away from the chaos of everyday life. Their home is something special—calm, welcoming, and thoughtfully maintained in every way. Martha and Jim are the most attentive hosts I’ve ever encountered, always making sure everything is just right, yet they’re never intrusive. They strike the perfect balance of being available without ever being overbearing. I’ve written several reviews for them already, and honestly, I can’t say enough about how much I appreciate their hospitality and the comfort of their beautiful space. If you’re looking for rest, beauty, and a place that feels like a home away from home, this is it.

Second time staying, my 4 year old is obsessed with the ladder to the loft. Beautiful, peaceful spot! Doug is great, he even jumped my car battery🚗

Lilly is the perfect host and I have enjoyed coming to this condo two summers in a row. Five star experience for everything involved in booking through Airbnb and she is a kind and gracious, helpful host. Sincerely, Kevin P.

So close to everything and feels like you are on a private piece of country. Nothing but views from the backyard to enjoy while swimming! The ponies were adorable and feeding them the provided carrots 🥕 was such a treat! Our family can sleep anywhere and 3 adults and two children had zero issues getting great sleep. So cozy and fun and the hosts were amazing.

We had a great stay, the pool was amazing, kids had a blast… and the boys even caught some fish!
