River Escape / Fishing Dock / Kayak / FastWiFi
THE LOFT HOUSE AT MEADOW LAKE RETREAT hosted by CTXBNB: Nestled beneath a canopy of trees on the scenic banks of the Guadalupe River in Seguin, TX, The Loft House offers a peaceful riverside retreat perfect for up to 4 guests. One of two charming tiny homes on the property, it’s perfect for those looking to unplug and reconnect with nature. Step into a waterfront hideaway where adventure meets relaxation: kayaking over calm waters, fishing on still mornings, swinging in a hammock, fireside nights under the stars. No crowds. No wake boats. Just you, the river, and the outdoors.
WHY GUESTS LOVE IT - Over 100 feet of riverfront with direct access - FREE kayaks for exploring the quiet river - Excellent fishing from floating dock or riverbank - Expansive outdoor space with fire pit, hammocks, and outdoor shower - Cozy accommodation for up to 4 guests (including day visitors) - Fully stocked kitchen, full-size appliances, Keurig coffee bar, washer/dryer, and fast WiFi (~350 Mbps) - Smart TV, books, games, puzzles and toys - Within 5 miles to HEB and Walmart but on a quiet country road with cows and lots of stars - Centrally located to New Braunfels, San Marcos, San Antonio, Austin
WATER & RECREATION NOTES River depth ranges from 3 feet near the dock to over 10 feet mid-channel.
Water level is carefully managed to maintain a required minimum flow, regardless of rainfall, making it ideal for kayaking and fishing year-round.
Warmer months bring the arrival of floating button moss, which collects at the surface and along the water’s edge. Still safe to swim but less enjoyable for some.
SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS - Primary bedroom - 1 queen bed (private, locking door) - Loft - 3 twin beds (accessible via ladder, open to living area, LOW 4' CEILING great for kids)
Feel free to check out the other tiny house on the property, Meadow Lake Retreat - Bunk House. We also own Lake Nolte Retreat and Reiley Retreat.
NEARBY ATTRACTIONS - Gruene / New Braunfels / Schlitterbahn: ~20 miles - San Marcos outlet malls: 25 miles - Ottine Mineral Springs: 30 miles - San Antonio: ~40 miles - Austin: ~50 miles
Car recommended. HEB delivery via Shipt available; Uber/DoorDash intermittent.
IMPORTANT DETAILS Tiny home water heater is small. Short showers work best, with time to refill between showers. Outdoor tankless shower available.
Outdoor spaces, fire pit, and riverfront are shared with one other tiny home (Bunk House), but each home has a separate porch, grill, outdoor dining and hammocks. Use of boat lift is limited to owners.
We utilize professional pest control on a regular schedule, but this does not guarantee a pest-free visit, inside or out. Because we're in the country and near water, you may encounter various wildlife and insects.
We do our best to schedule our lawn service when the property is empty. Sometimes we are unable to coordinate this, and the lawn crew may be present for a few hours during your stay.
We live locally and also have local maintenance and housekeeping for needs that may arise.

One of best places I've stayed
One of the best places I have stayed. Nice, quiet, beautiful, and everything I needed was there. The views are amazing. It is so easy to relax and connect with nature being there.
I was in Seguin for business and if I have to come back, I will choose this place for sure.
Overall property very well maintained and outdoor is very spacious. Located right on the water with easy access to water. Perfect tiny house for a couple and kids.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
The river access, canoes, paddles and life jackets were all available for our use, including other floats to enjoy the water which was a great temperature. The tiny house was lovely, clean, and accommodating, with nice touches like hammocks and swings for relaxing outdoors. My family and I had an excellent time.

Amazing place with a wonderful host!
This place was amazing! Laura was a wonderful host. Everything was clean and organized. Instructions were detailed and clear. The view and location were to die for the stores were accessible. My family and I made great memories. We will definitely be back.

Wonderful Get-away for Two
This met and exceeded our expectations! We went in September for one week, rested, fished, kayaked and chilled. A perfect spot for a personal getaway and unplugging. The host was gracious and this place had everything we needed to cook and bbq. Several sitting areas if there are more guests and would rent again. Highly recommend.

Amazing
We had an amazing weekend here. The tiny house was clean and cute! It had everything we needed and more. They have thought of everything to make your stay more comfortable. They have some incredible oak trees and beautiful sunsets. We kayaked and enjoyed the River. My husband and I will definitely be back.

Second stay
I’ve had the pleasure of staying in the Loft twice. It’s very comfortable with a beautiful outdoor area. Laura is a fantastic host that supplies the Loft with everything you need for a great stay. She responds quickly if you have any questions. I would recommend any friends or family to stay there! I’m sure I’ll return at some point.
I was pleasantly surprised that this rental was just as advertised. It was CLEAN, the kayaks and paddles were in working order and the place was so inviting. We loved the outside shower, coming back up from the lake, the shower was the cherry on top. We vow to be back and maybe take in a full week instead of 3 days. Thank you to all who made this a pleasant stay ❤️

True gem..absolutely spotless!
The Loft is a true gem! Absolutely spotless. Smelled fresh and clean. Great outdoor area. The outdoor space is shared area but ample space so you don’t feel the guest in the other unit are in your space. This will definitely be a place I’d recommend to anyone staying in the area and a repeat stay for me.
Laura made contact with me several times to make sure I had no concerns or needs.
We truly enjoyed our stay. The home was perfect size for us and had a full kitchen so we were able to cook all our meals. The home is in a great location with Walmart/HEB being 8 minutes away so if you need anything it very close by. The area is so peaceful and relaxing.
This delightful compound of two houses right on the Guadalupe River is clean, comfortable be and perfect for a family (or two). The hosts are super communicative and very friendly. Highly recommended!
Nice getaway before kids start school. 2nd time to stay here. The property is awesome with the kayaks, float matt, and multi-deck spaces. Can’t complain!!
We stayed at the tiny for three night and have awesome experience. So clean and organized. Made finding thing so easy. Communication with owner was a wonderful experience. She was so attentive and quick to answer all questions. I give weekend getaway a 5. On a scale 1-5. Thanks for the memories
