**As most of you know we had a catastrophic flood on July 4th this year. We are devastated at the loss of friends and their homes and those w/ extensive flood damage. Our much loved cabin did survive though, but the bottom level closest to the river level did sustain some damage. Good News, the cabin is fully repaired and we can in fact comfortably accommodate guests. The riverfront is still growing grass back and we lost most of the riverfront amenities. The riverfront has been cleaned up and the river is open for water activities. Fall has come to Kerrville/Fredericksburg and is here with everything y'all love about the Hill Country, low temperatures, cool night breezes around riverfront campfires.
Private and secluded waterfront cabin on Flat Rock Lake (Guadalupe River)w/ gated entry for security. Built just after WWII features sunshine views through jalousie windows. Private deck and private river access. Fishing and swimming with 200’ of Guadalupe River frontage and large Pecan Trees for shade. Kiva fireplace on the river w/ a cowboy grill on request. Kayaking, SUP, and canoeing rentals w/ pick up and delivery available. Mooring/dock is available for motorized watercraft. Starlink Internet and streaming TV available. Its breezy and cool on the large deck overlooking the river. Three mile drive to downtown Kerrville and an easy drive to nearby Fredericksburg, Bandera and Hill Country attractions. Coffee Maker and small convection oven available. Children over 12 years accepted. No Pets. Not ADA accessible.
- "The cabin is just as perfect as it looks in the pictures! Very homey cabin with a super friendly owner. The view is beautiful, we enjoyed the river and sitting on the deck watching the birds. I would highly recommend and are already anticipating our next trip." - "The cabin was very clean. Bob was very helpful with local information and suggestions. We spent our days sitting by the river, hiking and tasting local foods. You can be as busy as you want to be. Exactly the laid back vacation we were looking for."

The owners are friendly and cooperative. I highly recommend this location." - "This cabin is perfect for a relaxing getaway from busy city life. It's clean and well furnished.

Marula is an amazing African glamping experience located between Kerrville and Camp Verde in the heart of the Texas Hill Country. Stay with us in an authentic African tent (with A/C, full kitchen, bath and outdoor shower) nestled on 50+ acres of our 800 acre game preserve. Watch, photograph and enjoy rare and endangered animals as they stroll by the camp both day and night. Enjoy the cocktail pool with breathtaking views after a day of exploring all the Hill Country has to offer. Kerrville, Fredericksburg, Comfort, and Bandera are all within a thirty minute drive of Marula.
- "You can not put this experience into words and do it any justice. Marula is absolutely incredible! The host is second to none and the attention to detail throughout the property is impeccable. We spent two whole days in the pool admiring the view, enjoying the solitude, watching Carl and friends come to the watering hole, sipping on cocktails and listening to music. Life slowed way down as we disconnected and celebrated our 10 year anniversary. We loved taking late morning rides in the golf cart to check out views and animals after enjoying coffee with the hummingbirds and butterflies on the porch. The only bad thing about Marula is that you eventually have to leave. We will definitely be back!"

I loved the porch for early morning sunrises and late night sitting. The hosts are the most hospitable people you will find and have tons or recs on things to do. Enjoyed our stay!" - "This place is phenomenal! They were so accommodating and kind, we got in way later than we expected and they waited up for us to get there to welcome us. We got the full low down on everything in town, places to go and a run down of the cabin. We got our first experience with an incinerating toilet! I love new experiences so we were all about it.

- "We had a very nice stay here. Property was gated, peaceful, beautiful and had roaming cows to boot! The listing pointed out there was no stove or wifi which wasn't an issue for us at all. We were able to text and browse with no issues and we were out during the day and ate out at night. There were no televisions in the house; however, it wasn't an issue for us as we enjoyed the cool mornings and evenings out on the big front porch deck after being out for the day. The other huge plus was we were able to bring our pets with us! It can be hard to find VRBO's allowing pets and this was such a big bonus for us and appreciate owners that allow, as in our case, two small pets. We very much enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again."

- "Check in was not fluid... but after getting in, everything else was great. Had family stop over to visit us one day and we enjoyed outdoor space and games with grandkids. It was just perfect for our gathering." - "This was so necessary for me and my kids. We wanted a low key family vacation and we absolutely got it here. We loved the amenities, the place was super comfortable and pretty clean for the most part. We had a small issue with the tub, but the owners responded very quickly. I absolutely plan to come back when I need another escape. Overall, my stay was very peaceful and relaxing and I am pleased with the reset I was able to get while staying here. :)"

- "Just wished it had some water. Darn drought is so bad" - "Such a cute location on the river trail but noisy. Very clean, but the matress was awfully uncomfortable. The mini split air conditioner was adequate but really LOUD. I cannot give this property more than 3 stars." - "Love the deck and so did our dog. Nice place."

- "My friends and I went to visit the summer camp that we used to go to. We are college students so we wanted something rather cheap, so we found this. The pictures make the place look a lot bigger than we thought. I understand that you want the pictures to be intriguing but there is such thing as going too far. My friends and I definitely felt catfished by the whole thing. It did do the job I guess. "
