About this property

Hondo Creek Hideaway

  • Riverfront | Pet Friendly | Sleeps 8 | Free Early Check-In (when available) | Free Hill Country Travel App

    The Texas Hill Country is an amazing setting for the best holiday getaways! Hondo Creek Hideaway near Tarpley is a shining example of this; it's kid- and pet-friendly, in a peaceful country setting right on the banks of Hondo Creek. You'll enjoy those inspiring Hill Country views, your own private waterfront, and comfortable amenities, too! If you'd like to step out of the countryside and head into town, you can enjoy the cuisine, shopping, and nightlife of Tarpley and Bandera, both of which are nearby.

    Bring your tubes, kayaks, and fishing gear! Hondo Creek Hideaway is a scenic riverside vacation rental, on the banks of a tributary of the Frio River. You'll want to take advantage of your private access; after all, the Hill Country is known for its water-based adventure! The property includes a private dock with seating right on the water, and there's four acres of Hill Country beauty to explore here.

    The vacation home has two shaded decks, and both include comfortable outdoor furniture. The smaller deck out front is the perfect place to sip morning coffee and enjoy the Hill Country views, and the larger deck out back overlooks the creek, and has ample room for everyone to gather. Glittering string lights add a fun and magical sparkle to evenings on the back deck, too! In the mood for BBQ. Take advantage of the charcoal grill!

    Comfort is key inside Hondo Creek Hideaway, and this bright and airy vacation rental has central air and ceiling fans for just that purpose. For tech and entertainment, there's Wifi service and a smart TV in the comfy living area (you can also bring your own Roku for additional viewing options). The dining area has bar stools and a big dining table that seats eight, and the kitchen has all the appliances, cooking ware, serving ware, and prep space you'll need! Laundry's a snap with a washer and dryer combo, too.

    Hondo Creek Hideaway features three comfortable bedrooms: the master suite includes a queen bed, a double-vanity bathroom with both a shower and a garden tub, and a TV for added relaxation.
