Waterfront vacation rentals in San Marcos River

It was so lovely. Such a cute place, thoughtfully decorated/stocked. Will absolutely return

Dakota's apartment was an excellent stay. The view is absolutely amazing. The apartment itself is very elegant, clean and comfortable. The kitchen is sufficiently stocked for cooking and great coffee. The beds and living area furniture are very comfortable and a nice quality. The showers are also nice. The location of the apartment building is great and very walkable to restaurants and entertainment. The apartment building is nice, safe and efficient (as well as the valet parking). The front desk staff are friendly and will securely store luggage until check-in time. Note that the check-in staff seem to only rely on the host for details of the apartment, thankfully Dakota is very responsive. We look forward to staying here again!

Not only was this space charming, it is full of amazing history! We were able to walk almost everywhere we went and that saved a ton on parking for our adventures! Gina is an incredible host! Ive stayed at quite a few Airbnb’s and Gina is by far the best host I’ve ever had. Very clear instructions and extremely responsive! Gina was very hospitable and truly helped make our trip an incredible experience. This home and host truly were the cherry on top of an amazing San Antonio vacation!

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

The stay was excellent, with a clean place and a great location featuring many walkable dining options.

This place was absolutely amazing! It was close to everything within walking distance. The pool was a plus in the hot weather. I would stay here again when I visit San Antonio.

Great location for floating the Comal River! Our family also enjoyed hanging out at the pool after floating the river. Condo was great with comfortable beds and toiletries. Thank you for hosting!

This Airbnb was incredible! The view of the Austin skyline from the living room absolutely lived up to the hype, sunsets and city lights felt like a postcard. The space was clean, stylish, and the amenities were just what we needed to relax between BBQ and adventures. Only recommendation? A bit more flexibility with check-in. A small crowd of tired travelers gathered like it was the VIP line to a concert, eager to settle in, but with nowhere to go until the clock struck 4:00 PM. That said, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for great location, skyline vibes, and access to all the cool stuff Austin has to offer.

Words can not express how absolutely beautiful this property is. I didn’t want to leave , I’m actually already planning to book again. If that doesn’t say much , I don’t know what will. The pond was so cute , and has so much wildlife ! It was ridiculously peaceful. You can see So many stars at night. I will say it is in the middle of no where so pack accordingly. It’s like 20 mins drive to go to any major store.

We had an amazing stay, and we would definitely recommend this Airbnb! Hayley was super accommodating and attempted to resolve any issues we had. The house is a short distance from the downtown area and has a path down to the river. If you want to go in the river, be sure to have some water shoes as the rocks are very slippery entering in.

We love this place right on the river. The house is roomy, comfy and has the best scenery. There is direct access to the river via the back yard. The beds are very comfortable, and we had all the needed amenities. Hope to stay here year after year. (This was our 2nd trip to this house).

This is one of our favorite vacation spots! The perfect family getaway location; close enough to do everything in New Braunfels and San Antonio, but far enough away to enjoy the Texas Hill Country without all the hustle and bustle around you! Already looking forward to our next stay!

We loved staying at camp Guadalupe for my sister’s bachelorette trip! It was exactly as described and we had the best time! We loved all of the included amenities that Paige had for guests to use like pickleball paddles and balls, tubes, kayaks, and so much more! Would definitely recommend to someone who was looking for a river trip but doesn’t want to stay right inside new braunfels!

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.

The house was beautiful! It was great for my family on Father's day. Erica was responsive and helpful with all of our questions. There was a lot of games at the house, my Dad played the plastic axe board every night. Everything was clean and we had a great stay! It was a perfect private location, near the river and city.

This vacation home was everything we wanted and more! My friends and I truly enjoyed every single thing. Will 100% book this again next year!

This is our second time staying at Matt & Nikki’s place and we enjoyed it almost just as much as the first time. The condo itself is so nice and Matt & Nikki do a great job adding a lot of aesthetic touches and conveniences that make us feel right at home. Also, with easy access to the water park, the river, pools, and great restaurants, the location makes this a perfect vacation spot. I do have to mention that our vehicle was towed to San Marcos during our stay, which was unfortunate… we put the parking permit away when we went out to dinner on our last evening and forgot to put it back up when we got back the condo. When we woke up in the morning, our vehicle was gone. However, Matt was very responsive (on a Sunday) and accommodating in giving us extra time on checkout day and helping me find the information to get it sorted out. Don’t let that scare you away though. All that is just to say, take Matt & Nikki’s warnings about keeping the parking pass visible at all times seriously!

I recently enjoyed this stay, and it was everything I hoped for, relaxing, refreshing, and absolutely perfect! From the moment I arrived, the atmosphere was inviting and peaceful. The building accommodations were spot on, and provided all the comforts of home with an added touch of luxury. I loved the bar (for drinks and coffee) downstairs. Friendly and attentive staff without being intrusive. Parking was by (24/7) valet or paid street parking only. I highly recommend this stay to anyone wanting the downtown Austin vibe.

The place was amazing love the view. Host was very helpful, friendly and respectful. I would recommend this place to anyone staying in the Austin area.

Great place with fantastic location. River access + about a half mile from Schlitterbahn East

This was a wonderful place to stay! The location was amazing and the host was always responsive. We had very clear instructions and everything exceeded our expectations. We would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend to others!

We had a great time in this cozy space!

Ideal location and beautiful property. Condo was well furnished and very clean. Comfortable linens and beds. Would absolutely stay here again!

Right on the river with several places to rent tubes across the street
