Summary: Great, large property with plenty of space to hangout. Lounge in the great room with a view to the courtyard or hangout outside with plenty of seating and outdoor fireplace. Located just outside of town for a nice quiet stay. Five minutes to Bandera and 15 minutes to Medina. Alan is a great host who stays in contact with you during your stay. Always making sure you’re taken care of! We will definitely stay here again.
Bette T. Dec 28, 2024 04:02:05 AM
Summary: The property fit our needs comfortably. There were 19 of us who met for a family Chistmas get together. The bedroom/bathroom combination was excellent. The game room, dining room and two kitchens were comfortable for our game playing, preparing meals and eating. We enjoyed the outdoor fireplace and river as the weather was very pleasant. Alan is a wonderful host and very attentive. We would definitely stay here again.

Summary: I have been staying at this property since the early 90s. The new owners have done an amazing job. Check in was easy, property is amazing, and checkout/clean-up was easy. Great communication by the owners. River is amazing in this area. Great place. Let’s me give my kids the same memories I have as a child.

Summary: Everyone kept asking me upon arrival. It’s a gem. Cold AC, comfortable beds, goats on property to feed and interact with. Outdoor fireplace… I didn’t ask but it looks like an old hotel or boarding house that was made out of an addition to an early 1900s frontier house. Original structure has had bedrooms and kitchens added. There are so many nooks and covered patios and decks to sit and enjoy. The main structure has 4 bedrooms and 4 full baths. Theres a main kitchen and a backup one for drinks and overflow. Four couples stayed the first night then another three rooms were opened up for us to use so folks could enjoy themselves late into the night. The river was flowing. The falls were beautiful. Alan was the best. Super attentive and right up the road. Really, Alan, you made it all so easy. Highly recommend for a family or bday get together or even a board retreat. It’s got 8 bedrooms and if people are sharing, you can fit 25 people in beds. Can’t wait to come back. Sidebar - Arkey Blue’s was popping off on Saturday and it was a great birthday. Thank you,

Summary: Our group of 11 spent a few days at the DH River Lodge in Jan 2024 during the Bandera 100k ultramarathon. This place was absolutely fantastic! The property was clean and well-prepared for our arrival. We had everything we needed for our stay. Things that we particularly liked: -The Great Room was awesome for hanging out. -Everyone had there own private bathroom. -The kitchen and dining room were huge. -The host Alan was super-responsive to all our ?'s. I would absolutely recommend the DH River Lodge for anyone spending some time in Bandera. The whole group kept asking me how I found this jewel of a place. Book you stay and you won't be disappointed.
