Family-friendly vacation rentals in San Marcos River

Place was amazing but it is a smart house. We had trouble with the TV and lights hooking it up on our phones. The TV wanted us to download an app and add a credit card. The outside was amazing, especially the hot tub. Only down fall was the storm knocked the outside lights out so we swam in the dark. Overall, it was amazing!

This place was the cutest!! Quiet, private, beautiful, and super clean. We were very comfortable in the area. Host was awesome and super nice. Would definitely recommend. If we're in the area again, we will definitely try to stay here again. (The beds, pillows, and linens were literally the most comfortable I've ever had in any rental!!)

We had a wonderful stay! The place was so comfortable, clean, cozy. The bed was amazing and the hosts were incredibly friendly and supportive! Can’t wait to stay again!

Great communication, location within steps to the brewery, lots of activities

Beautiful home, centrally located, and very quiet. It was very spacious and comfortable, would definitely stay again

Different unit but we’ve stayed at the property another time and love the location. Easy walk to downtown, Landa Park and we joined the gym Das Rec for a month, great value. Fun to watch the activity on the Comal and the golf course from your balcony. The unit itself has comfortable furnishings, well stocked kitchen, patio had lounge chairs and a dining set, all just as shown in the listing. Saundra was great throughout the process. We would definitely stay again.

Our stay at this incredible lake house in Canyon Lake was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the panoramic views of the water, the peaceful surroundings, and the thoughtfully designed home. The house itself is beautifully maintained, with a perfect mix of modern comfort and rustic charm. Spacious bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, and cozy common areas made it easy for our whole group to relax and enjoy our time together. The large deck overlooking the lake quickly became our favorite spot — ideal for morning coffee, afternoon lounging, and sunset dinners. One of the standout features was private lake access. We loved being able to swim, kayak, and paddleboard right from the backyard. Evenings were spent in the hot tub under the stars — truly unforgettable. The location is perfect: secluded enough to feel like a true escape, yet close enough to town for groceries.

We stayed in Natalie’s place for 5 nights (Sunday-Friday) so my son could attend a camp in NB. The apartment was clean, comfortable and very quiet. I worked from the apartment while my son was at camp, and I didn’t have any trouble with the internet. The pool and large yard was perfect for children! I expected noise to be an issue because it seemed many others in the complex were there on vacation but we never heard any of the neighbors. We really enjoyed our stay and will book again next year if Natalie’s place is available!

The pictures did not do this place justice! It was way more beautiful in person! When you first drive in, you are greeted by the cute goats!!! It’s all enclosed and very relaxing and quiet! The cabin was adorable and very well kept! The only downside was the one scorpion we saw! 🤭 can’t stop nature though, and the place was totally worth the scorpion visit. Beautiful and would definitely go back, maybe even try the yurt next time!!!

We had a lovely stay at the property. Easy to get to and pleasant setup in the villas. We enjoyed the pool and a little hike as well nearby. Came with our baby and it was a great family friendly setup.

Peaceful & just what I needed for a “me treat”

Silvio’s place was cozy, clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. Silvio was a great host, he had an alert about the thermostat and reached out immediately to check on us. Everything was good and there were no issues. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely book again if back in the area!

Thank you, Carissa! Our stay was perfect. The home was perfect size - we felt like right at home. The cozy backyard was my favorite. I enjoyed having coffee and listening to the birds in the morning.

This is our 2nd time renting with Nicolette. Our experience as the last was great. It was easy to check in. The place is very accommodating. We were very happy.

This place was perfect. I was visiting my daughter who lives nearby but doesn't have room for me to stay with her. This hip little spot is in a residential neighborhood which was very quiet and cute. Lots of nearby yummy places to walk to.

This is the cutest, rustic cabin! Nestled in natural greenery, comfortable decor, and a relaxing River… my adult daughter and I floated, relaxed, and enjoyed our mini-holiday SO much! We ate at Myron’s, shopped, and enjoyed NB’s farmer’s market. My little pugs ran around and napped til their hearts were content. Five Stars! Thank you for having us, Amy!

we felt like it was an absolute honor to stay in this artistic tribute to all things wonderful - whether a picture of a giraffe peering in the window to see what you are cooking, or a small plastic pig figurine looking down from above the shower. What an experience and we suspect each item displayed has a rich story that could go along with it. The artful displays provide a rich coziness to the experience in this large home. The owner keeps the place spotless and supplied with anything you might need. She is a super communicator and readily available to assist in any way. This is a place you do not want to miss - it is as unique as they come and very comfortable!

John & Sherri were very responsive when i had any questions, and are just down to earth people.

Kim and her husband Tex are great hosts. They addressed our concerns quickly. Their place is nice. Our family enjoyed the pool. We recommend Kim’s listing!

Lovely "studio", small kitchen, sitting area and two big comfy beds. Pool and patio definitely the highlight. Quiet and peaceful. Rose was helpful and friendly (on site) but not intrusive.

We loved the location of this condo. Perfect for our small children. It was close to lots of our favorites. Jimmy was very quick to respond. We will definitely come back to this location.

We had a wonderful visit. We would highly recommend! Beautiful oasis near lots of activities.

Amazing stay!! Clean, awesome house! Quick to communicate and help with anything needed! Would definitely stay again.

Loved the condo! It was a perfect place to stay with our adult children. We loved playing board games on the large outdoor patio each night. It was a great location to walk to the cute restaurants and shops. The place was extremely clean with fresh linens and very comfortable beds. We were extremely satisfied with all the amenities our host provided. We didn't spend much time in the condo over the week because there was so much to do around town but the time that was spent together there was very peaceful and relaxing. We would definitely want to stay here again and would recommend this place and our very attentive host, Gina, to other guests. Thank you!
