Room for everyone

We came out with a few families, all ages from little ones to grandparents, and this place was just right. The house was laid out well, plenty of space for everybody to spread out and still come together. Thoughtful details inside and out made the home comfortable. Great river views and access

Beautiful, Peaceful and Fun!

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The house had everything we needed and more. Lots of seating indoors and outdoors which was very nice. The part of the river was perfect for our group, it felt very private. The views were just beautiful. When planning another river trip we would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic House

We loved our stay at this house!! This is the second time we have stayed at one of the properties Tom takes care of and they are always wonderful. Probably the cleanest VRBO we have ever stayed in. Everything we needed was taken care of, from trash bags to seasonings and pots and pans. The house is set up perfectly for two families and a bunch of teenagers! Definitely recommend this property!

Perfect Frio River house for large group.

Our group of 18 had a great time at the La Vida La Frio. The owners put a lot of thought and care in this home. This is our 3rd time staying at one of Tom’s properties. Water was a lower than usual but we still had a wonderful time. Thanks for sharing your piece of paradise. We love it here and will be back.

Better than it looks online

This property is gorgeous. The views from the kitchen window of the hills are spectacular. The river was low but that made it even better because it was like having your own personal river pool out back so we kayaked and laid around in our tubes. Made a bon fire at night which was lovely.

Feeling Free on the Frio

What an amazing gem tucked away in some of the most charming scenery in Texas. Dipping your feet in clear cool water while watching the bass and bluegill swim by was therapy for me. The house has a incredible layout for entertaining.. I only turned 40 once and what a great way to do it. Bass

Great Place

We love this house. The deck and the river was very relaxing and the rooms were extremely comfortable. We utilized their charcoal grill quite often. The gps doesn’t pick up the right address so it’s slightly hard to find. Make sure you read the directions that were emailed thoroughly before hand so you don’t pass it up! Since it’s new, the owners are in the process of having better signage on the road. Highly recommend this gem! Thanks for providing such an amazing place. We would definitely come back!

Our stay at La Vida La Frio

My family loved La Vida La Frio!!! The house is situated by the beautiful Frio River. The view from one of the sitting areas is spectacular! There are steps leading down to the river where you can sit and feel the peace; kayak; tube or wade in the clear clean and invigorating Frio. You can walk down away from the crowd and fish. There are bass and trout. You should bring your waders. You can sit by the fire and make s’mores. The house is spacious and absolutely beautiful! The beds are very comfortable and the bathrooms and showers are modern and have great showers and shelving. The atmosphere is clean, light and inviting. The kitchen is especially well designed and equipped with everything you could possibly need. There is plenty of space for several cooks and seating for a large group. The design is excellent and the decorating is interesting and lovely!! It captures the essence of the area. My family and I celebrated my birthday there; and it was perfect! Also, it is very near Gardner State Park and Lost Maples State Park for day excursions. Tom Kirkpatrick was very helpful and kind. He was attentive to our needs, cooperative, available and friendly. I really enjoyed meeting him. I would give my highest recommendation to go there. My family and I definitely want to stay there again.

Perfect Large Family Home

Great space both inside and out. Patio was enjoyed by our adult children for playing games, watching a game and chilling. Inside was very spacious for us to all enjoy breakfast together. Even with a dry summer there was still plenty of fresh flowing water for us to enjoy paddle boarding and floating. The guys spent hours trying to catch the "big bass". Plenty of outdoor games, no need to haul your own. We will spend many future family vacays here
