Welcome to Wimberley Riverhaus, your serene sanctuary nestled along the tranquil banks of Lone Man Creek in the heart of Texas Hill Country.

Originally built in 1946, Wimberley Riverhaus has been lovingly renovated and remodeled to blend rustic charm with modern comforts, creating the perfect setting for your family getaway or group retreat.
As you arrive, the soothing sounds of the creek and the majestic oak trees provide a warm welcome, inviting you to immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the surroundings. Park under the covered porch, where easy access to the front door awaits. Step inside and feel instantly at home in "The Perfect River House," where abundant natural light, limestone accents, and wood floors set the stage for a memorable stay. The “drop zone” offers a convenient space for river gear, ensuring that adventure is always just steps away.
With three spacious bedrooms, including a fun room with four twin beds for the kids (or kids at heart) and two cozy bedrooms - Wimberley Riverhaus comfortably sleeps up to 10 guests. Freshen up in the stylish bathrooms adorned with subway tile and ample counter space before gathering in the open-concept living area. Relax by the fireplace, watch a movie on the large screen TV, or whip up delicious meals in the well-equipped kitchen featuring sapphire cabinetry and plenty of counter space. Dine indoors at the table for six or savor meals al fresco on the screened porch overlooking the serene water views.
Outside, a private water park awaits, offering endless opportunities for aquatic adventures. Swim, tube, kayak, or simply unwind along the creek's edge, surrounded by the natural beauty of the hill country. Explore the 5 acres of private land, swing under the oak trees, or gather around the charcoal grill for a cookout with family and friends. As the sun sets, gather around the fire pit to roast marshmallows, share stories, and marvel at the starry Texas sky.
Venture beyond the river's edge to discover the charms of Wimberley and its surrounding area.

This is a lovely and peaceful property. No water due to drought but this made no difference at all - still absolutely beautiful. Host was responsive and helpful. We will be back!
We stayed while attending a wedding in the area. Riverhaus was perfect! So cute and comfortable. Gorgeous property, 5 min from town, excellent amenities. Would love to stay here again!
Check in to the property was very easy. The home was very clean as well. The screened in porch was the hit of the stay as well as the amazing water view and fishing. Wonderful and relaxing stay.
Great little cabin with a wonderful water view! Screened in patio was nice to sit while it was raining. Very convenient to Wimberley. Will be back to visit again.
We really enjoyed staying here. The house was older but updated. The best part of the say is really the property. The creek that runs outside the house is very clear. My kids enjoyed going on the canoe and the kayak. They also enjoyed swimming. My son put on goggles and swam and looked at the little fish. He said it was awesome. We loved sitting around the fire at night and sitting outside or in the screened in porch each morning. The trees are beautiful!
Although we could not use fire place, fire pitt, nor canoes because of drought and burn ban we still loved our time there. Only problem ,which was handled swiftly was when water shut off while I was washing my hair.
Perfect place to unwind and enjoy nature. The house was large and accommodating for our party of 6. We loved sitting in the screened porch and outdoors, on the patio overlooking the water.
There's no water in the creek!!! The creek has been dry for months, yet the management company said that I could fish there when I messaged them prior to booking this stay...yet there's no water. We wouldn't have booked this place or paid nearly as much if there would've been an honest answer. I messaged the management company again, prior to posting this review. It went unanswered.Other than that, the place is nice and accommodations are as promised.
This was the perfect place to get away. There was a little road noise but the property was still peaceful and so beautiful. We will definitely be going back!
This house and property were so beautiful, the house is spacious enough to spread out and the outside spaces along with the screened in porch were great! We really enjoyed hanging out, the hammock and 2 swings were a bonus. We’d definitely stay here again.
Excellent location, close to attractions. Bring a float and enjoy the creek on the property. We also had fun on the canoe they have available. The house is wonderfully updated, open and very inviting! Would definitely recommend!
Great location, great house. However, the picture does not represent the current situation. There is no water at the riverhaus. The primary factor for us renting this house was the access to the river. The riverbed is dry. It is important for others to be aware of this factor. If the river is not an important factor then it's a cute place to stay.
The house was just lovely…nicely furnished, comfortable beds, nice kitchen, and lovely patio dining. Four long time friends gathered for the week, and we enjoyed the time spent visiting and catching up, sitting outside watching the river drift by, listening to the birds, and observing the deer that came by each morning.

Family was looking forward to getting out of the city and enjoying peace and quiet by the river. However, the home is located directly off a busy road. The traffic noise was constant. This took away from the location.Also, the furniture could use upgrading. The dining room/breakfast area chairs were metal and not very comfortable.
Overall a wonderful stay. From the views to just being tucked away in the woods. Everything you need to completely relax. There was only 2 things I didn’t really care for . One was there’s only curtains in the bedrooms. Two there is only one tv in the entire house. This doesn’t reflect the 5 star . Just maybe take attn to this. We will be back for sure
