What a beautiful place. The outdoor view overlooking the Medina River is breathtaking. You can walk right down and play in the river. The house was clean and decorated cute. The beds were very comfortable. The host were so kind and easy to talk to. We look forward to returning.

Beautiful Hill Country Getaway

La Hacienda Rio is a beautiful property and we absolutely loved our stay. The house itself is gorgeous, comfortable, very clean, and had everything we needed. The porch was spacious and had lovely views. The host was fast and easy to communicate with. The river was just a short walk from the home, which was fun to explore, and shallow enough for kids to walk in. The house is in a quiet area outside the city and really felt like the Texas Hill Country. It was a restful stay and we would visit again. Highly recommended.

Relaxing gem near the river

My wife, a couple friends and I travel around participating in Spartan Races. Of all the places we have stayed, this has to be one of the best VRBOs we have stayed in. The property is well kept, the view of the river from the back porch is amazing, and communication with the owner was great. If we run this race again next year, we will definitely try and book this property.

Happy times and a Wonderful place to stay!!

This property is beautiful with amazing views. The back porch was a nice quiet place to sit and drink coffee and watch the wildlife in the morning. Our hosts were very responsive to our needs. The river park right down the road has deep pools of water for paddle boarding, floating etc and was secluded. You will not go wrong staying at the La Hacienda Rio. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much Laura and Perry for sharing your VRBO with our family. We will never forget our visit there!!!

Wonderful! Owners went above and beyond!

We really enjoyed our stay here. The house was beautiful, very clean and had everything we needed and more. The owners really want you to have the best time. They had big jugs of shampoo, conditioner and body wash in both showers and hand soaps at all sinks which I love. Who wants to travel with all that? The kitchen also had things like paper towels, trash bags, plastic wrap, Keurig coffee pods, etc. It wasn’t like most rental houses where you show up and realize you forgot to bring basic stuff you use in the kitchen. They seem to have thought of everything for you! They even have a surprise snack and drink for you upon arrival. We felt spoiled! They also provided deer corn that you can throw out and several deer will come up close to eat it. So fun for my 5 year old! We only used the master room and the king size bed was very comfortable- supportive/firm but comfy. The river was very calm, shallow and relaxing. Definitely bring your water shoes so that you can comfortably walk up the river to explore. We would gladly stay here again!

Beautiful retreat in Hill Country

We really enjoyed our stay at La Hacienda Rio. The house and property are so beautiful and it is a great area to explore. It’s also close enough within an hour drive from San Antonio and other Hill Country towns to see other places in the area. The house is clean and welcoming and Laura and Perry were great hosts.

Fantastic place!

Us and our friends were looking for a weekend getaway, and this place was perfect! The location is great, right on the river (although unfortunately for us, the water by the house was extremely low, but a quick trip down the road to the park and the water was better), and Bandera is a short drive away and offers some great places to eat and shop. Would highly recommend this place, the house is amazing and very clean and the hosts were very easy to communicate with during the entire process.

River Oasis

Laura and Perry are wonderful hosts and took good care of us during our stay. Lovely home located just off a peaceful view of the Medina river, a piece of river paradise. My wife and I enjoyed our stay tremendously, just lounging on the back porch in the shade (back porch is also perfect for sunset viewing), taking in the river from different vantage points on the property, and exploring the river itself. On a cloudless night star gazing was spectacular. Seeing different types of wildlife on the property was exciting too (various birds, deer, turkey, etc.). I would highly recommend staying at this property. We hope to come back many more times in the future.

A quiet place to relax

We really enjoyed our stay at La Hacienda Rio on Medina River. The house is lovely and the amenities are well thought out. The deer feed provided was a nice touch so we could see the deer close to the house in the early morning hours. Though the river level was low we still had a good time fishing. There were some nice size bass in the deeper waters. There are plenty of places to sit and enjoy the view with a coffee or a glass of wine. There are other houses near by but everyone was pretty quiet for the most part. I would definitely recommend this location to anyone looking to get a way from the city and spend some time with the family or have a romantic getaway.

Wonderful property

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property, which is a 15-min drive from Bandera. The house itself is beautiful, clean, and spacious. Laura was very responsive and helpful with the few questions we had. A really nice touch was the welcome gift on the kitchen counter, along with a delightful watercolor painting of the river. (Yes, she expects you to take it as a souvenir of your trip!) The view from the back deck is so peaceful, as is the view from a little lower down, and of course all the way down by the river - and there are seating options at all levels. The walk down to the water was a little steep and gravelly but nothing we couldn't handle. I appreciated the lightweight lounge chairs available for carrying down to the river's edge and basking in the sun. We enjoyed feeding the deer each day (owner left us deer corn). One chilly evening, we warmed up by the firepit coffee table and toasted marshmallows. One thing to note - this time of year the painted concrete floors were chilly, so I recommend bringing slippers, but they probably feel fabulous in the hot summer months. Sofa was comfy. Beds were comfy if you like a firm mattress. Tap water tastes a little odd, but no fear - there was even a water cooler in the kitchen! If you're looking for something, be sure to check the pantry and all cabinets/drawers in the kitchen - you're liable to find it. Thank you, Laura, for a lovely getaway experience!
