Wimberley Waters - Main House
Permit: 2018-02
Behold Wimberley Waters. Located along idyllic River Road, this Texas Hill Country getaway is an absolute gem of a private retreat—a perfect escape for families and friends. Extensive 2022 renovations brought new levels of comfort and grandeur: luxury furnishings, sleek and stylish bathrooms, Spanish tile, micro-cement countertops, cozy little nooks for quiet thought, and big congregant spaces for those feeling festive.
Wimberley Waters offers the best of both worlds: peaceful seclusion and easy access to culture, adventure, and nightlife. This modern river lodge is perched on the tranquil banks of the Blanco River, just a short scenic walk from Wimberley’s charming downtown square.
The main house is furnished with two bedrooms, each with its own external door so guests can come and go without disturbing others. Two private bathrooms are also located in the main house, making this the perfect family getaway.
The perks of Wimberley Waters spread well beyond its walls. Step outside and across River Road to an expansive, private park on the Blanco River. Dip your feet in the water or simply lounge in the shady yard full of hammocks, rocking chairs, and Adirondacks, all perfect for long hours of Hill Country fun.
Or maybe you’re feeling a little competitive. Challenge your family and friends to games of cornhole, horseshoes, ping-pong, foosball, Jenga, ring toss—all are here, and all available at any hour thanks to the spacious lighted pavilion out back. Fire up the grill, spin the ceiling fans, and gather around the big banquet table to share something delicious and reminisce as late as you like, at least as long as the fireplace is lit and the s’mores are toasting.
The main house is generously stocked with every convenience you’d want in a home: modern spacious kitchens, quality cookware, fresh linens on every bed and plush towels for days. On lazy mornings or rainy afternoons, just stay under the covers and watch some TV, or screen a movie for the kids in one of the living rooms while the bigger kids mix drinks and deal cards in another. .
For larger groups, rent the entire property at Wimberley Waters for a weekend sure to impress the entire family! Please inquire with our office for rates and availability.
On beautiful days a wonderland of adventure awaits. The crystal-clear Blanco River is unmatched for fishing, canoeing, and kayaking—whatever your speed. Take a daytrip to Canyon Lake and rent a boat or a pair of jet-skis. Float the majestic Guadalupe and soak up some sun, then cool down after dark at the Whitewater Amphitheater for live music under a canopy of trees.
An easy walk to Wimberley Square drops you right in the middle of Hill Country culture, with boutiques and antique shops, restaurants, and bars. Explore New Braunfels and Gruene just down the road, each boasting fabulous restaurants and music venues. The 200+ shops at the San Marcos Outlet can fill an entire day, and don’t forget to bless the kids with a visit to Schlitterbahn Water Park or Landa Park, where they can swim, slide, run, and hike until they’re spent.
Blanco has several attractions for outdoorsmen, history buffs, and foodies. Blanco State Park offers fishing, swimming, and hiking. For those interested in the Old West, the Buggy Barn has over 140 restored covered wagons. Real Ale Brewing Company offers guided tours and a taproom tasting experience.
Farther down the road is historic Fredericksburg and its numerous wineries, all within a few miles of each other. Stroll the grounds and dip into as many as you please. Or visit one of Fredericksburg’s two amazing museums: the National Museum of the Pacific War and the Pioneer Museum. Make sure to stop by a fruit stand during the summer months to grab some famous Fredericksburg peaches.

Great house and location, terrible management
This house was wonderful and in a great location. However, it was not cleaned prior to our arrival. I contacted the management company, and they said “they’d pass it on to the cleaners” and did not offer any other assistance. I asked for a refund of our cleaning fee, and they said they couldn’t authorize that because there wasn’t a manager available until Monday. After a couple emails, I finally got a supervisor a week later, who still denied the request and offered no assistance. Unfortunate that they manage this cute property, we won’t be back.

Great for big groups
We had a sweet short weekend stay here. Stayed at the main house of which is a compound. Really well done design, very clean. Comfy bedding. Not right on the river but is a short walk. Literally next to fish tales restaurant which has live music at night. Thankfully shut off at like 9 but still didn’t get the crickets and quiet we experience on cypress creek. Unfortunately no sidewalks to town and the land is not walkable due to the landscape and fast drivers. The road the house is on has a lot of traffic which made us nervous with young kids. Our kids loved the big yard, hammocks. Wish we could’ve used the outdoor pavilion so beautiful. All in all if I had a large group I would definitely rent again and recommend!
