We stayed for one day so my son could enjoy the river for his spring break. This place was perfect for that and everything is very close by if you decide to Uber or walk. This place was very quite and relaxing.

This experience was smooth, and our stay was perfect! The house is clean with good energy, and style. The backyard is great for dogs, and a wrap around patio makes getting around outside easy. We will use this rental for any future stays! 5 stars

Great house and perfect location

Beautiful house very close to the parks along the San Marcos River and the Town Square for shopping, restaurants and bars. Charming deck and covered patio which showcases Cameron's gorgeous plants. We only ended up using the microwave and refrigerator/freezer but the kitchen is fabulous and has all you need to make your own meals. Would highly recommend this house if you're looking to visit San Marcos.

Great experience!

Pleasantly surprised by how much we enjoyed the outdoor space (packed folding chairs). The home was as advertised and very clean. The neighborhood was relatively quiet and we were able to walk dogs safely. Owner was very accommodating and responded promptly to any questions that we had before and during our stay. We would definitely stay again!

Serene Escape

Cameron was an accommodating and gracious host, and the property was so serene and beautiful! It is much bigger than I was expecting as the deck nearly wraps around the entire house with beautiful trees and an array of outdoor seating/hammocks. The house was so clean and well designed, but you can also tell there is so much heart and soul woven in. As a musician myself I greatly appreciated the artistic touches/piano/Frida theme that felt like a creative retreat even though it was just a stone’s throw from the main square. I can’t wait to revisit!
