Two longtime, owner-run properties on the banks of the Blanco River — quiet acreage, deep swimming water, and the Wimberley Square just minutes away.
Wimberley sits where Cypress Creek meets the Blanco, and the best stays put you right on the water. These two properties — The Wimberley Retreat and Shade Ranch — share the same local owners and the same stretch of the Blanco River. One leans luxury; the other, traditional Hill Country. Both book directly with the owners.
A luxury riverfront home on ten private acres, built for a big group that wants the river to itself.
The Retreat is a 3,400-square-foot home set on 10 private acres with about 600 feet of deep Blanco River frontage. Across the water, a bluff keeps the setting private and quiet. There's a 40-foot pool and a large spa, and a roughly 1,500-square-foot wrap-around covered porch with a stone fireplace, grill, and dining area for evenings outside.
Two traditional limestone homes on forty riverfront acres — rent one, or take the whole property.
Shade Ranch spreads across 40 acres with 600+ feet of private Blanco riverfront, where a natural rock shelf forms a deep, year-round swimming hole. Two homes sit on the property and can be booked together or separately. Both carry the conveniences you'd want — outdoor hot tub, limestone fireplace, high-speed wifi, and satellite TV — without losing the old Hill Country feel.
2,800 sq ft · 3 bedrooms / 2 baths · two living areas · sleeps up to 10.
1,000 sq ft · 1 bedroom / 1 bath plus extra beds · sleeps up to 4.
