River Front-Waterfalls-Outdoor Fireplace-WiFi


PLEASE NOTE: This home is in a small neighborhood that has full time residents so strict noise rules are in place and louder groups will not be able to stay here. All outdoor music is strictly prohibited during your stay. We expect all guest to move conversations and gatherings into the house at 9 pm on weekdays and 11pm on Fridays and Saturdays. Regardless of the available sleeping arrangements, this home is a 4 adult maximum home.


We have also noticed an increase in the number of guests that are wanting and/or expecting to be able to "float down the river". Hunt Texas is not a location for this activity. Both forks of the Guadalupe in Hunt have a series of dams that back the water up throughout the length of both of them. We do encourage our guest to make day trips to the Frio for tubing if that is a strong interest. Our own family often does this when the Frio is flowing well. We include more information and recommendations in our information packet for our guest.
Cedar Cliff Cottage sits on a bluff above the Guadalupe river's north fork in one of the most scenic areas in Texas. This incredibly special area host some of the most popular camps and resorts in the hill country. Camp Stewart, Camp Waldemar, The Boy Scouts Camp Bear Creek and Mo Ranch are all within a few miles or less. This little cottage packs a huge punch when it comes to comfort and amenities. The cottage is clean and cozy, and the property is open and spacious, allowing your group to stretch out and find the spaces that suit them best. Whether it's a giant, private patio with a stone fireplace, a heated, covered back deck that's perched above the river valley, or multiple other options for relaxing, there is a place for every mood and personality type. As our personal guest, you will have access to hidden river treasures seldom seen by and not accessible to the public. Beautiful river features like a picture-perfect waterfall and crystal-clear plunge pool with cascading spring water constantly rushing over it are waiting for you to explore and enjoy. When first entering the property, you will find yourself immediately thrown into the hill country lifestyle with a huge stone patio, loaded with custom seating and tables, and a picture-perfect outdoor stone fireplace that is just waiting to be lit up at night. Here you will find an excellent place to spend the evening and night gathering together and watching the stars above, all while sitting under the dreamy party lights. This is also the location of the BBQ smoker pit that is sure to be pumping out the incredible smell of burgers and steaks during your stay. Upon entry you will find a cute kitchen equipped with all types of cooking appliances, including an oven/stove top, microwave, pancake griddle, blender, crockpot and just about everything else one may need to cook their favorite meals. The living room is a wall of windows and has plenty of seating for everyone. The 65 inch 4K TV is perfect for family movie night after spending the day in the sun. The built in window seat is a great place for sleeping small children with blankets and pillows provided. Here you will also find a sleeper sofa, perfect for fitting a couple of more guest into the cottage for efficient vacation living. Just off of the living room is a large, covered deck with more seating and tables. The deck is an excellent place to hang out under cover, eat, and take in the incredible eyepopping, panoramic views of the mile long bluff just across the north fork valley. For the cooler nights, you can crank up the commercial electric heaters with the push of a button. At night you can turn on the party lights, kick back and enjoy the cool summer breezes that blow through the valley and ridge tops of the Guadalupe's north fork. If you are lucky enough to have a clear, moonless night during your stay, you will see stars like you never have before. At night you can even hear the calming sounds of the waterfalls just upriver, echoing off of the limestone cliffs. Each bedroom has brand new beds packed full of fresh blankets and pillows to give you the coziest sleeping arrangements possible. The cottage sits high above the river, allowing for panoramic views, but also quick access to the water just down a fun little path through the trees, or a second path that takes you directly to the river's plunge pool and waterfalls. Two kayaks are available for our guest use, however, you will need two people to carry each one down to the water and then back to the house each day. Ever snorkeled fresh water? This is a place you can do it because 90% of the time, the water is virtually as clear as a swimming pool. This clarity also gives moms peace of mind knowing they can see the little ones at all times. No deep dark water here to worry about moms. This home is perfect for smaller groups, consisting of no more than 4 adults, or 4 adults and the accompanying children all totaling no more than 6 persons. We provide blow up mattresses to put the kiddos on if you need every bed for the adults. This property does sit on a bluff and small children must be watched at all times as well as young adults properly supervised. (This home is in a small neighborhood that has full time residents so strict noise rules are in place and louder groups will not be able to stay here. We do expect all guest to move conversations and gatherings into the house at 9 pm on weekdays and 11pm on Fridays and Saturdays.)
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cottage, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private balcony or patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a DVD player is provided for your entertainment.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Girls’ weekend
The house provided a great little getaway with friends for the weekend. We did walk down to the water from the house, but we opted to not hang out there as planned. We drove up to the Ingram Dam and relaxed in our tubes there. The house was in close poximity to Crider’s as well for family-friendly rodeo and dancing action. All around, nice little place to stay!

Quiet little spot
This was a nice little place and overall, a great stay. Unfortunately, I was unable to access my Vrbo app (technical issues with the app, nothing wrong with the wifi here) and so did not receive the stay instructions that the homeowner did kindly provide via the app. They were not able to provide us with all the information over text but were responsive with the essentials-There were not a lot of asks- take out the trash, put towels in a laundry basket- really very reasonable and we were happy to do as instructed. The home is a lovely space in an extremely quiet location- Seems like a sweet neighborhood--The local residents who treated us to an enthusiastic duet of "Oh, what a beautiful morning" and then a lot of Edith Piaf and Patsy Cline music on our final morning which we didn't mind a bit. There were a few small misses- damp towels that had become musty in the dryer, moldy coffee grounds left in the coffee pot, but overall, this was a really clean, well-kept space and these small oversights were easy for us to rectify on our own. We appreciated the chance to stay and explore this lovely little area of Texas for the eclipse and found the folks at Ingram's grocery and Stonehenge II to be fantastic. The HEB in Kerrville was fabulous for supplies and the house was well stocked for us to be able to cook meals here. April was a wonderful time for wildflowers. Would recommend to others.

This place is a hidden gem!
This place was a great spot to getaway for an extended weekend. There was great communication, detailed instructions for arrivals and departures, and everything was made seamless. The place has plenty of equipment and utensils for cooking. There are basics like coffee, sugar and creamers. I’d suggest stopping in kerrville to make a grocery run before checking in. The river is less than a 5 minute walk away, and they provide all of the water amenities. One thing to note, is that the internet is not that strong.

Spring Break with family of 4
Our family of 4 totally enjoyed this house for our Spring Break trip! Brent was so helpful from the very beginning, even before I booked the house, answering questions!! The location of the house on the river was excellent! My son, especially, and our whole family enjoyed walking down to the river to hang out and fish, chill, and take a little dip in the water. The patio was very enjoyable in the evenings for dinner and smores! We look forward to possibly booking in the summer! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

We chose this location to spend some family holiday time together. You have the river and associated activities right out the back door, and you also have a great location to both garner and lost maples state parks. Everything was great, this house is a wonderful place.

Weekend Retreat
We had a wonderful time exploring Hunt. The accommodations had two masters which was perfect for our family of four and another couple. We are dinner at home the first night and grilled outdoors and ate on the back porch enjoying our view of the river valley and sunset. Day two we explored Hunt and ate at the Hunt Store for lunch. As Crider’s was closed due to rain, we went into Kerville for a fabulous meal. Rails - a Cafe at the Depot was excellent local food and rhe service was great! We took several homemade deserts home to enjoy by the fire. Sunday we tools out the tubes and kayak and floated for hours in the cool, but not cold water. All equipment was in great shape. That night we grilled again and sat in the back shairing stories sitting around the fire. Our teenage girls, 13 and 15, had a great time exploring and also enjoyed the WiFi hook up. The landscaping, flowers and butterflies were amazing. A lovely destination for a weekend getaway.

Great Getaway!
Our family just returned from a long weekend at this property and had the best time. The house was clean and well-stocked with everything you could possibly need. We loved the front and back patio and enjoyed eating all of our meals out there. The location on the river was perfect. Although it was a bit of a walk down from the house, it was worth it to have the river all to ourselves. Perfect place for our little ones to play safely for hours while my husband and I lounged in the water. We will be back!
