Plenty of space for everyone to spread out. Well kept and clean. Would definitely go back again.

We had a great time!

We loved the house and the location so much, we never left during our entire stay. We setup chairs / floats on the river in front of the house. The layout is fun, unique and nice for all parties - you've got master on main level next to everything, bedroom on lower level with it's own bathroom and kitchenette, and another kitchenette, bathroom and two bedrooms on third floor. Plus fun games such as foosball, ping pong, corn hole, etc.. I would 100% return to this location.

Property was very clean and quiet at night! We were able to float from the house which was really nice.

Wonderful and spacious home on the River. Kids and adults had a blast. Home had everything we needed and more. Thanks again.

We had the best time & really enjoyed our stay at the Rock’s River Retreat. It was the perfect size for our family of 6 adults & 4 kids. We really enjoyed the views & the cool layout of the house! Drinking coffee each morning on the patio was especially enjoyable! The entire family enjoyed the games under the patio. The ping pong table was a huge hit! It got a lot of play time from the entire family. The location of this house was perfect! We were just a short drive from all the activities we did on our stay. We enjoyed floating the final river, spending a day at schlitterbaun water park & we spent a day tubing on a pontoon boat that we rented on canyon lake. This was such a memorable family vacation! So glad we found the River rock retreat!

We had a great stay and loved the 3 separate levels with 3 separate bathrooms/kitchenettes on each level. My kids highly enjoyed swimming in the river and we were about 15-20 minutes to all swim holes in Wimberly. The property was quick to respond with a minor issue and got it fixed quickly. I did wish there were fans outside as it was hot during our stay. Overall great family friendly home.

Nothing better than having a cup of coffee on the back porch and watching the day come to life. The deer, the ducks, the fish jumping, and the gentle breeze. So close to NB, yet so far away. The house layout took some getting used to, but it works. Great showers. We will return with pleasure. Oh, it was a rainy weekend, and plenty of room to spread out and even a covered area outside.

House was on a great property and had enough room for all! I would stay again!

The house location is fantastic given we were going to see a concert at Whitewater Amphitheater and to hang out on the river. The kitchen was well stocked and we bought steaks form a local farm to grill. Would 10/10 stay here again for a lake/river fun weekend.

This place is fantastic! We had the best most relaxing time! It’s far enough from everything, but close enough to what you need. The yard and view are amazing and the pics don’t do it justice. We had a few hiccups with appliances not working but stayed in contact with the property manager about it and all was well. We plan to stay here again!

This was the second Christmas we spent with our family at this property and we will be making it a tradition. The home is perfect for a large group, is located at a beautiful place on the river and allows us to be comfortable and enjoy family. Just perfect!

Beautiful scenery. With waterfront views we had amazing time we would definitely stay here again

This is a great place for a small group; we had 5 children and four adults and no one felt crowded or fought for bathrooms! The house was clean, extremely organized, and contained everything that we needed for our stay (outside of food, obviously!) The beds were extremely comfortable, and the blinds kept things nice and dark even when the sun was out. Great location. If you bring a friend who’s naturally a mosquito attractor, like we did, you can sit outside completely unmolested and enjoy the views! It was the perfect place for our trip and everyone loved the accommodations. We’d come back!

There were 6 adults on this vacation. We enjoyed our stay on the river. A few bugs but nothing too bad. We loved the view. A little rough on grandma. Who uses a cane. Getting up and down the stairs was a bit challenging. But she did it! Location is close to Gruene. And Schlitterbahn. Overall. We had a great time.

Upon arrival going in we had to wipe everything down when we got there. We cleaned with our own Clorox wipes and they were black and brown after wiping the countertops down. Under the beds and couches there was dirt dust and debris. Dust all over the fixtures and then when going out the back door the handle came off. View was great right on the water but the roaches that came when we cooked quickly overroad that. If you do stay place all the food on the table do not leave it on the counters or stove or they will get in it. Be sure after your stay to check your bags before bringing them back in your home as I found a roach in my suitcase. Also the downstairs bathroom shower did not drain properly they had septic come out the second day we were there but after it still did not drain out. Then when leaving the owners stated we needed to load the dishwasher and start it. Went to do so and opened it up to a foul smell like a dead rodent and food particles inside the dishwasher. We did not load it we washed all our dishes by hand dried and put them up. I made the owners aware of it and all they said is we didn’t say anything during our stay. Never apologized.

Loved being on the water, being able to go right out and hang in the water.

We stayed here for 4 nights in July. The house is very nice and clean and well stocked with nice linens, blankets and towels. The beds were all very comfortable. The A/C worked great on all levels of the house. We were able to get in the river right from the yard and floated from the house. We all enjoyed the ping pong table and foosball. The neighborhood is nice and quiet and we enjoyed listening to all the birds in the mornings and watching the deer feed in the yards. The rental company was quick to answer and help out with a few questions we had. I would highly recommend staying here.

The location of this house is incomparable. Right on the water, between Canyon Lake and the Horseshoe, only 10 minutes from town, and not a ton of neighbors. That cannot be easily replicated. The property has tons of trees and direct access to the river. We saw a variety of breathtaking wildlife, most notably a pack of deer watering themselves in the river early in the mornings. The only reasons we were glad to leave at the end of the week were the dirty condition of the kitchen, bathrooms and floors and the cockroaches. There were half eaten steaks in one of the drawers and dried raw meat juice all over the bottom half of the refrigerator when we arrived. Two of the drawers were broken, but I was able to fix one, after removing everything I could to clean out the remnants. There were broken chairs and tables throughout the house, and the management company tried blaming us for the prior damage when we checked out. We found 2 very large “water bugs” (read flying cockroaches) in the main floor within hours of our arrival. In the morning, we found multiple small “German cockroaches” in the kitchen cabinets with the dishes. When we contacted the management they arranged for an exterminator to retreat 2 days later. Even after the treatment, we continued to see multiple cockroaches throughout the house. The rugs all needed a deep cleaning and the floors were filthy. Your feet would be solid black after walking around inside for a few hours. Overall, the property is amazing with plenty of beds and places to hang out, it just needs to be maintained better. We would stay there again if we could be assured that these issues were addressed.

This house was great for our group! We had 4 couples and were able to enjoy the river and grill at our leisure. Manager's Reply: Thank you so much for being our guests! We hope to host you again the next time you are in the Hill Country!

House was as a good as expected. I recommend it.

Firstly, the property was absolutely beautiful!! My husband and I could not get over how stunning the backyard was-we ate every meal on the back deck which we took in all the natural beauty around us. However, the trip was not completely the peaceful vacation we were hoping for. Our check-in time was 4 PM. We arrived around 4:30 only to find the beautiful home a complete mess. There were dirty dishes in the sink and dishwasher, all the beds were unmade, dirty towels on the bathroom floors, dirty towels in the open washing machine, the kitchen/bathroom trashcan were full of trash, and there were sticky fingerprints on the fridge/windows. I called and some lovely ladies arrived around 5:30ish to clean up the place. My husband and I waited in the backyard so as to stay out of their way, but it was pretty hot outside. They finished around 7 PM and we were finally able to bring our things inside and unpack. However, this was 3 hours after we were supposed to be able to check in. Then the next day (Wednesday 5/25) we were contacted to let some repair man in to fix some part of the fridge. This was at lunchtime so we had to wait for him to finish. We also did not request this repair so I wish it was done at some time when the home wasn't occupied by guest. The day after that (Thursday 5/26) we were again contacted to see if the repair worked. Again, we did not request this repair and have no idea what the repair man fixed. We were really hoping for a relaxing vacation but these delays,interruptions, and inconveniences caused us stress. Considering the rental costed us almost $1800, this was not the service I was expecting for a pricey rental. I was wondering if I could be refunded the price of the first night (or some other costs) as our check-in was delayed by 3 hours on the first night and the inconveniences we endured on the 2nd and 3rd day. I greatly appreciate your attention to this matter!

The view of the river was beautiful! Great place to kayak. Lots of games provided and fire pits. The lighting bugs were an added bonus for the kids!

Great location with a beautiful view. Plenty of room for 2 families of four.

This property was absolutely perfect. Everything was clean and well-maintained, the neighborhood was quiet, and all the activities we had planned were close by. We especially enjoyed watching the wildlife and chasing fireflies. I would definitely stay here again.

House was nice. Linens and towels were clean and available. House definitely had beds for 11. Only comment on outdoor seating was not sufficient or very comfortable for more than 4 people. River access was good, bring water shoes to navigate the rocks. Very close to Whitewater Amphitheater!

This house is wonderful & we loved the location. It was quiet & serene which is what we were looking for. Beautiful house & property!!

Everything was good.

We stayed at the house for a girls weekend, the floorplan worked out wonderful. The house was fully stocked with everything we needed. It was very peaceful and a great location.

This was our first time visiting canyon lake and we loved it . The house was just like the pictures and it was very peaceful and relaxing. We enjoyed sitting by the river and also having coffee in the mornings on the balcony. The kids loved the location and the property they didn’t want to leave. The kids play room is a plus my 6yr old loved it . We got to see deer everyday we were there the little ones were very joyful when they saw it. We will definitely reconsider this location for the future.

I’ve traveled so many places & honestly this beats the nicest of places. This gives you that home-y feel & providing all the amenities of being at home, while still staying very clean like a hotel. They provided coffee, water bottles, blankets, everything I could think of that I needed. Even when I needed wood for the campfire, it was there. Close to everything I wanted to do, but it didn’t feel “city”. Can’t go wrong staying here- I’ll be back.

This property is amazing! If you are considering this area book this property. You won't be sorry. The Hancock's river retreat is just as the name states. It is a great house with the Guadalupe River in the backyard, whether you are accessing the river or just enjoying the scenery around the firepit. The home is very open and spacious. We enjoyed our morning coffee on the large main floor balcony as well as the lower level porch swings overlooking the river. With 3 floors, all with bedrooms and baths, the house is great for large families or groups but is also very comfortable and relaxing for a couple. Every amenity has been thought of with this property. The home is exceptionally clean and the beds are wonderful. We relaxed and watch some college football on the large tv in the family room while the kids enjoyed foosball, ping pong, and corn hole outside under the covered patio. We had a great time with family grilling as well as eating at several convenient restaurants. Breakfast is great at Wildflowers. Burgers are amazing at Canyon City Grill. For a special night out I highly recommend a short drive to Genaro's Italian Restaurant or to Greune which has the oldest dance hall in Texas . The leaves were falling and it was perfect fall weather. We had a great time and are already planning our trip back.
