Property Description
Welcome to Bluebird Cabin at the The Guadalupe River Road Retreat! We have three additional cabins (VRBO codes 7914761, 7911593, and 9451823) sharing six beautiful acres of Guadalupe river frontage, where guests are free to wander the park like setting under the shade of majestic oaks, pecans, and cypress trees. Enjoy fantastic views of the Guadalupe river from cabin decks and bench swings, take a nap in a hammock, relax and cook smores at our firepits, or play tennis day or night on our newly resurfaced tennis court, and of course spend time in and on the river!
Our retreat differs from many of the rental options on the river. We cater to families, couples, reunions and small groups who want a tranquil environment and wish to avoid the rowdy crowds and party cabins. We strictly limit group sizes to what the cabins can comfortably accommodate, and we enforce our property rules regarding day guests, loud music, and disorderly conduct. If you are looking for an oasis on the river, a place where you can have fun but also relax in comfort, peace, and privacy, Guadalupe River Road Retreat is the place for you!
General info.
The Guadalupe River Road Retreat is located at 8910 River Road between the second and third crossing, halfway between Gruene and Canyon Lake, and is accessible via an electric gate (code provided upon booking).
We have two river access points, a concrete dock with steps down, or via a natural path down to a sitting area under the canopy of two massive cypress trees. Across the river from the property is a unique limestone expanse carved by the river where guests frequently enjoy hanging out, playing in the water, and watching the toobers float by.
There are multiple river outfitters within a short distance of the property, with the closest being Mountain Breeze which is less than a quarter mile from our access gate.
Gruene Texas, famous for its shops, restaurants, and the historic Gruene Dance Hall, is only nine miles (15 to 20 minutes south of our location). Sattler, where guests can find a small grocery store, gas, and other necessities, is only five miles (approximately 13 minutes) to the north.

July 4th Weekend
From the moment we arrived, the hosts were exceptional—welcoming us at the gate, giving a thorough tour, and staying attentive throughout our stay. The property itself is stunning, located right on the Guadalupe River and just a short walk to a scenic area under a large Cypress tree, perfect for relaxing in the water. Unfortunately, we faced rain for most of our trip and couldn’t float the river as planned, but the hosts consistently checked in and kept us updated during the flooding. I had planned to propose on July 4th but postponed to the 6th due to the weather. The hosts helped make the moment special by clearing a fallen tree from our path and leaving champagne and glasses for us. Despite the challenges, their kindness made all the difference, and we’re already planning to come back next summer.

Great trip at the cutest cabin
We had a blast on our trip! The cabin was spotless when we arrived and the direct access to the river was so nice. Our 1 year old had plenty of space to run around and the gated location made us feel safe. Mr. Carlton and Mrs. Laura were the sweetest hosts and we enjoyed chatting with them any chance we got. We hope to be back in the future. Can’t recommend this place enough!

Our family had the best time!
I can’t say enough good things about this amazing place. We had our family get together for a weekend there was 20 of us kids & adults together on this wonderful property. Lots of room inside and out. The homes were nice and clean, very comfy and spacious.
We had a wonderful time at the river tubing, sitting and relaxing in our lawn chairs just enjoying the views. Children had fun on the tennis courts and shooting hoops, playing corn hole.
Carlton & Laura our wonderful people who love to share their little piece of Heaven on earth with others . They answered all our questions and was very knowledgeable about the area. We will definitely be coming back next year!!

Best place on the river
This was the best place we’ve stayed on the river! The hosts were warm and friendly, and it feels like visiting friends. They provide everything you could possibly need to feel at home. Our teens loved all of the animals, wildlife, river access, and basketball court. It was a wonderful, relaxing weekend, and we can’t wait to go back.
