About this property
Hunt Vacation House - a Family Getaway with Guadalupe River Park in Hunt, Texas
Our house and our property were safe, but the destruction of the July 4, 2025 Guadalupe River flood is evident and will be for quite some time. We have blocked July 4, 2026 to ensure quiet time for our neighbors wanting peace and solitude on the anniversary of the flood. I haven't entirely updated our listing yet with a new description or photos. It's still a beautiful area, and recovery is slowly happening. We invite you to stay with us, but please be aware that many people here are still hurting.
Hunt Vacation House is a beautiful family sized home with easy Guadalupe River access, a two minute walk to our gated community river park. This is the perfect place to enjoy the beauty and serenity of the Texas Hill Country. We’re ten minutes west of Hunt – convenient to both summer camps and off-season activities.
The house is high enough on the hill to be safe, yet it's just a short hike down the trail (it's a bit of a goat trail, but the river is 600 feet from the front door) and across Highway 39 to our Marymeade community river park. There are some new trees and grass planted and the new fence is up. New picnic tables are appearing thanks to a neighbor who is building them. And the kayak rack that survived the flood is full again. The river is about 3 feet deep in front of our dock and shallower on either side for little kiddos to wade in or to put in kayaks.
The house will sleep nine including children: There is a queen bed and newly renovated bathroom with rain shower in the primary. The upstairs bedroom has its own balcony and private (also newly renovated) bathroom with shower. The middle two bedrooms have a trundle bed (2 singles - great for kids), a single and double bed and share a beautiful new bath with laundry room.
The dining area seats eight – six at the table and two at the breakfast bar, it's a little tight for that many, but we mostly eat outside on the picnic table anyway. The family room has a high beam ceiling and a glass-paned door with sidelights to enjoy the view and let the breeze in. If you can’t leave your technology at home there is wireless internet and satellite TV. The house has every amenity needed for a comfortable stay (oven, fridge, dishwasher, fresh linens, etc). Just bring some groceries, a bathing suit and free time to enjoy it! Internet is fast fiber optic if you need to work remotely.
Outside we have two spacious decks with Hill Country views. Drink your morning coffee on the side deck and watch the sunrise. Enjoy an evening glass of wine while star gazing on the front deck. We saw the space station last night! There is a hammock, a porch swing, and outside eating area with gas grill. There is a herd of axis deer that visits us most mornings. Guests often see deer or fox passing through the yard or on the ranch property next to us. Yesterday it was a flock of wild turkeys.
Come stay with us and enjoy a bit of Hill Country peace and quiet with Guadalupe River access!
Dogs considered individually: We understand that pets are a part of the family. At the same time, we have to keep in mind that guests with allergies cannot tolerate any trace of a pet in the house. Dogs will be allowed on prior approval only with a pet charge of $50. No cats. Pet fees will be due via an additional payment request if you use the Instant Booking option.
Verizon & ATT cell service can be spotty at the house (connect to wifi and it's fine), but there is no cell service at the river park or on most of the road from Hunt.
Thanks y'all, Michelle & Danny Hunt Vacation House Family

This is a wonderful cabin - great location near Criders and camps and has river access. It is very clean and the beds are extremely comfortable. Our trip was cut shorter than planned due to the recent rains and flooding but the communication with the host was excellent and everything worked out well.
We stayed here before picking up kids from camp and it was super convenient and perfect. Very clean and comfortable. Loved being able to walk down to the river and spend the day floating. Michelle was super easy to get in touch with and we loved our stay!
It’s pretty hard to find a dog friendly rental. Especially one that has more than you can ask for. Easy check in and out. Great communication with property owner. Rooms were clean and ready for us.
We've stayed here for years, to pick our kids up from camp. Owner/Michelle is always great. House has been renovated & is superb. Easy access to river park. Water is great & take kayaks to the flats & explore. Super fun every year...!
The property and the accommodations were beautiful and just perfect for our family! The house was fun, clean, well stocked and extremely well maintained. The outdoor living space was absolutely gorgeous and the perfect place for morning coffee snd evening cocktails while the kids played in the spacious yard! On our visit, unfortunately, the river was closed for maintenance so we couldn’t enjoy any of the water features (kayaking or swimming) but we were able to do some exploring nonetheless…We are already planning to make this an annual trip! The hosts were so very nice and welcoming and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! We are already looking at next years calendar!
Lots of seating outside to enjoy the beautiful nature. Clean inside and lots of sleeping accommodations. Water filter in kitchen a very nice touch! Compared to how many people can sleep there the kitchen table is very small.
We picked up our kids from camp & we love staying at the river house!! Big plus is it is pet friendly & we have a chocolate lab...
The house is quiet & in a perfect location. Short wal down the rock stairway and you are chilling in the river!!
Dogs & kids love swimming fishing and going up river to explore the flats...

We loved IT
Excellent location and plenty of room. Our family of 4 shared the house with another family of 4. Fun stuff to do, relaxing, andloved the porch! We all went to the beach last year and it was unanimous that we would come back here next year.
Great kitchen appliances, plenty of bedrooms and baths and comfortable living area; enjoyed the outside space/deck as well. Good A/C. Would have enjoyed using the jetted tub in master, but the tub faucet did not allow filling in a timely manner.
This property was a great escape from the city life. I wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy the serene setting. We enjoyed the short walk to the river, the hammock, and the front porch swing. We took our own food so we didn't have to leave the property and could enjoy all it had to offer. The kitchen was very well stocked with all the pots and utensils we needed. We plan to return!
House was fantastic! It was well stocked with appliances and utensils and everything was high end including bedding. We loved it! Decks and outside seating were extremely comfortable. The main living area was on first floor. Master and 2 other bedrooms were only 5 steps up from the main floor and the 4th bedroom was up from there, but it had a private deck. Highly recommend!
beautiful house, it was a steep down hill walk to the water but once you get everything down there its a beautiful quiet area. The towels where still wet in the dryer, and the coffee maker still had coffee and filter from the people before. Might need ro put no trespassing signs on the entryway we had several people come threw the property trying ro get down the water. All together it was a nice stay.
Not close to the river, must cross dangerous road to enter river which can be treacherous for older individuals. Accommodations were decent, WiFi was terrible. No phone service. Poor communication.
Spent 4 nights with my family and my brother's family. We all had a great time. The house was nice, clean, and private. The kids and the adults all had a great time! Great beds, restrooms, and air conditioning! We were looking for a private spot close to the water and the house met our expectations. Just a short walk to the river. Thank you!
