Just a short walk to the crystal clear river. Fishing, swimming and wading for the little ones. It's common to find fossils while exploring along and in the river. Wonderful hiking and bike riding throughout the ranch.

The cabin is REMOTE. We are 35 miles from a grocery store, 18 miles from gasoline and convenience food. Bring everything you will need. Fill up your gas tank in Uvalde, Leakey, or Sabinal.

Beautiful getaway

Absolutely loved and enjoyed our experience at this location. Super simple, clean, and relaxing...the river spots we went to, where we spent most of our time, was perfect for my kids! Though we did not get to meet Dale, his sister and mother came over to check in on us to make sure we had everything we needed. This place is a hidden gem, that I’m glad I found. We will definitely be returning!

Great time

Loved it, the water level was low but we took a trip out to 19 mile crossing and took a short hike to find the perfect swimming spot. The cabin was great the beds were a little stiff for my liking. Other than that it was nice and secluded. I would highly recommend it.

Canceled

Good afternoon, My trip had to be canceled due to two members of my party becoming ill the night before we were scheduled to leave. On Thursday night, 07/14, I sent a reschedule request to the host, but have not heard back from him. In fact, I have reached out to the host at least three times from the time I booked the reservation and have never received a response to any of my messages. Is it common practice for hosts to ignore guests who spend their hard earned money on their properties? I would just like to know if my reschedule request was accepted or not, please. Thank you! Left hanging in Houston, Mona

Perfect family fun in paradise

My granddaughter and my two 18 year old granddaughters came for our annual trip to Garner area and as usual had the time of our lives! The property was like a second home to us in no time at all! Everything we needed to be comfortable was made available to us and the view across the riverbed to the mountains was second to none. Peaceful, playful, get away! We loved it!

We absolutely loved the house, the surroundings, the river in the back, the park on the property. Everything that we didn't bring us was in the house. We all needed a nice, quiet and active vacation. Really, really happy with the whole experience!

Awesome secluded house

We stayed at an awesome secluded cabin on 1 mile of the river. The water was not too deep. It came up to my waist in deepest part. Great place to take your little ones. I enjoyed the water as well. Plenty to swim in. And there is literally no one out there while you walk down to the path to the river. Perfect get away for a family with younger children. Will be back for sure!!!

We had a blast exploring the dry frio river daily. The cabin is on the river bed and easy access to the river. Beautiful views of the sunset fading behind the hills. Dale was very helpful and communicated excellent. House was just perfect for our family of five and spending a week disconnected did wonders for our family !!!

Beautiful ranch

Wonderful location and quaint cozy cabin. A beautiful spot under the oaks near the river. Deer come each evening to graze. Quiet and even tho there are cabins next door, we had the place to ourselves in the quiet of winter. Blanca set out loungers so we could view the stars. Thanks Blanca! We adored your miniature horses too!
