Mike R. Apr 29, 2025 08:40:45 PM
Summary: This property is great for gatherings. We had family and friends over after our daughter received her ring at Texas State. The location was perfect for that. The large trees provided great shade and the kids enjoyed playing in the river with the tubes provided at the house. If you like hanging outdoors the deck is impressive and spans the entire back of the house with plenty of space for everyone!

Summary: We enjoyed our visit to this great home on the river in Martindale. Hosts were communicative and the home was updated, comfortable and well stocked. Really pretty spot on the river - good fishing - we caught several nice bass. Our dog loved the yard and wading in the river. The deck is huge and nice. Would definitely come back.

The place was clean and very roomy for our family 10 adults and 4 children. The kitchen had everything we could need. Location was perfect!! Absolutely loved just walking down the back yard and jumping in the river for some relaxation with the family. Can't wait to return!
