Vacation rentals with a kayak in Central Texas

We made some amazing memories at the Quiet Cove! Having access to kayaks, paddle board , and fishing from the dock made our stay so much fun. We ended each day around the fire out on the porch with a guitar, diving with the family. The house is super well stocked which made us feel like we were visiting a friend’s home, not just a rental. Thank you for an incredible stay.

Immaculate home! Everything was clean, tidy and orderly - easy to enjoy, and easy to clean away when checking out. It truly felt like our own home whilst there. Michael was the perfect host too, responsive when needed, but respected our privacy to enjoy the home. We’ll be back!

Our stay was wonderful. We've been going to New Braunfels for years and this has been a favorite stay. Check in was easy, the house is in a great spot, has easy river access, and we loved that there was plenty of space for the entire family to spread out and be comfortable. Our one year old grandson had plenty of room to play in a safe place. The sunroom or the screened in porch is a perfect spot for coffee in the morning and having the chairs and BBQ pit were perfect for the evening. We floated twice from Little Ponderosa and got out right at the house which was great especially since some chose to just hang out in the river by the house. We will definitely look into staying here again. Thank you for being great hosts!

Kendhall was the best Airbnb host I’ve ever had. From being flexible with my changing plans to a quick response to get us a pin to the Roku tv, everything was amazing. Property was right on the water and made for an awesome weekend. Thank you Kendhall and team!

We had an awesome few days in Melinda's place. Beautiful view, incredible sunset. Kids enjoy the lake to fish and do water activities, while we watched them from the Jacuzzi. House has everything you could need. Family of 7 and we were really comfortable. Melinda is an incredible host!

We had a great stay for the first half of spring break. We were traveling with our friends so had parents, teen/tween boys and 2 younger girls. There was fun for everyone. The weather was perfect so we were able to enjoy fishing in the kayaks, sit on the front porch to relax and play sports in the yard. Our girls loved the loft!

My family and I had a wonderful stay at Tim and Ben’s place. It is a beautiful spot and meticulously maintained but also very comfortable. The house (s) are well stocked with anything you might need. Tim was very responsive and helpful with questions we had. The lake was low which we knew, but still had plenty of fun on the water and at the house. I would definitely book with Tim and Ben again in the future!

We loved our stay at the river house. Perfectly set up for our large family and adult kids. I also appreciated Robin's great communication and help getting an item we realized we left shipped out quickly. Would stay again!

Amazing location! Beautiful views with a few acres around the river to explore! Great river views and river access. Can't wait to come back during the summer!

We stayed here for a sister’s trip which was a group of 4. We had plenty of room and the location was perfect. It was about a 10 min drive from New Braunfels main stores and 25 mins from River Rd. We enjoyed going in town/being on the river and then back to peace on the lake without the crowds. The place was clean, and kitchen had everything we needed to take turns cooking. We’d stay again!

Very peaceful cabin beside the lake. Beautiful surroundings. Cabin was modernly decorated, mattresses were very comfortable. Host was very responsive and helpful with everything. Will definitely return.

The Knotted Knoll is a great place to stay if you want to get out of town for a few days. My dogs had a blast exploring the property.

She’s an amazing host very warm and welcoming down to earth amazing host! I would definitely come back again and recommend to all families and friends. You won’t be disappointed. This is the place to stay. 😃

Really wonderful place on the river, despite the low water levels. Cabin is great. It was nice to have some others around and it never felt crowded on the property. Seeing the birds feeding their babies was the highlight of our stay!

The Lazy River cabin was a perfect little getaway for my daughter and I. Pros: It was spotless, comfortable, quiet, peaceful, kayaking was fun, fire pit was great, everything was exactly as described. The location was perfect- secluded, but still very close to Waco and all it has to offer. Cons: No smart TV and the dish didn’t work, the ladder to get upstairs would be difficult for older people and impossible for someone with physical limitations.

Loved it here! This was a great find. It was a nice clean room overlooking the river and was on very pretty grounds alongside other rentable cabins. The Spicewood location right on the Pedernales and along lake travis was wonderful, truly waterside with easy access to the kayaks/canoes/paddleboards which you can rent through Travis quickly and conveniently. After sunset I had plenty of room to set up my telescope and had a great view of the moon and stars over the water. It’s right down the street from Krause and several other hillcountry gems. Great host. I’d totally come back.

This place exceeded our expectations! The peace and quiet that we experienced was unmatched!! My family of four and our dog, enjoyed every moment and every part of the property. My kids were never inside!! Great place to decompress from daily life activities. Also, no phone or Internet service was tranquility for my wife and I. We'll definitely be coming back!!! We LOVED it so much that nobody wanted to leave!!! One of my favorite places that my family has been too. Don't forget to say hi to Frank!!

AngelTom was a great place to stay. Very relaxing and peaceful... not to mention fun!

Enjoyed this place! Great place to stay if you’re wanting to visit Inks Lake State Park without staying inside the park. Hot tub was great after long day of hiking.

Very nice place that everyone enjoyed including the kids! Close to everything but secluded enough to relax and enjoy peace and quiet. The creek behind the property is beautiful and everyone enjoyed the amenities that were included.

My wife and I came here on a weekend getaway from Austin and were SO happy we chose Ashley's cabin. Beautiful and peaceful, it has everything you could need for a relaxing weekend. Ashely provided so many great recommendations for spots in the area and was always very responsive. While we did go into town a bit, we spent most of our time relaxing at the cabin, which has an amazing balcony overlooking the water. The bed was very comfortable and the living room/kitchen area was incredibly cozy. We definitely hope to be back!

We had an amazing stay at the cabin! It was exactly as described – clean, spacious, and beautifully decorated - the detail is like no other. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the river with rapids for all ages! Erin has tubes and kayaks for guests to use which we used the entirety of our stay! Just 15 minutes down the road are attractions and restaurants for all to enjoy. We really appreciated Erin’s hospitality and the little touches, like fresh towels, water, ice machine and complementary coffee! We Will Certainly be back!!!

I’m very excited to stay again! The amount of items they had available was endless. Great location and amazing place to book for your getaway.

I had a wonderful girl's weekend trip at Tom's place. He has put in A LOT of effort and love into this home. It's exactly what we were looking for. Everyone had a comfy bed and the kitchen was stocked with all the essentials. The property is so special and beautiful. The screened in porch was fantastic and we ate every meal outside. The river is a short 3-5 minute walk down a path. We brought a cooler, sat by the water, and used the rope swing. The location feels remote and private but then there's an HEB 15 minutes away. It was just a wonderful place to relax and enjoy each other's company. Tom is probably the nicest and most responsive host I've ever encountered. You can tell he truly loves this home and wants his guests to feel comfortable and taken care of. 10/10 would recommend and already planning my return.
