Incredible ranch on Blanco River with Main Home, Guest Home and 4 Suites. Property is located on 136 acres with fabulous Blanco River frontage. This is an exceptionally spacious and private location perfect for reunions or retreats. The entire property is available or separate units are available. The Main House has very large living room with dining table with seating for 12. This living room also has new regulation shuffleboard table. The dining room has additional seating for 12 at two tables for six. The guest house shares the porch of the Main House overlooking the rapids on the Blanco River with newly installed outdoor kitchen. There is a great fire pit on the main patio. The four suites are approximately 150 feet across a large lawn area. The are two units with two suites each. The suites are each decorated beautifully and uniquely but all have the same floor plan including double sink in bathroom, rock shower and kitchenette with Keurig coffee, microwave, small cooktop, small convention oven and sink. There are nice outdoor patios overlooking the river for all spaces. The fishing is great in the deep part of the river upstream from the rapids. We request that you catch and release please.

Fabulous vacation for large family!
We take our 4 kids, their spouses and our 11 grandchildren (ages 2 months to 12 years) on a family vacation every summer for a week. It is always a challenge to find a place that will accomodate our growing family. The house, cabins, waterfront and large property were beautiful. The grandkids had lots of space to play outside, and we all enjoyed our nightly, competitive pickleball tournaments. Wimberley and Canyon Lake also provide lots of fun activities. The adults and kids thought it was the "best vacation ever."

Family vacation
Something for all the grandchildren-ages 6-18, and adult children. Not always easy to find a place that accommodates all. Oversized hot tub, served as a mini pool for the young ones. Then swimming and fishing for all. Very amply supplied! Loved it❤️!

This property is absolutely beautiful. There was something to to for all ages in our group.
The river was so much fun. We also played pickle ball, suffle board, shopped in Wimberly and barbecued on the massive patio and in the wonderful outdoor kitchen. The sunsets and sunrises were absolutely gorgeous. I would most definitely recommend a family vacation here. The beds in all suites are very comfortable, also. The owners are very nice and accommodating and their dog Lucy is super sweet. Best vacation ever!

About the host

Hosted by Charlene Myers

Host profile image
My husband and I have been in Wimberley for 40+ years. We have managed our rental properties all of these years. We have enjoyed time on the Blanco River with our family and friends all of these years. We moved to this fabulous property after the 2015 flood and have worked to restore the riparian of the Blanco River. We are proud of our efforts and results and hope to leave the river in much better health than we we arrived in 2016.

Why they chose this property

Blanco Rapids Ranch is in the Devils Backbone area between Wimberley and Canyon Lake. It is centrally located for trips to Wimberley, San Marcos, Austin, San Antonio, New Braunfels and Canyon Lake. The privacy of this river property is exceptional. The seperate suites make it the perfect place for a gathering of family and/or friends where you can gather together and also have your private lodging.

What makes this property unique

This ranch is on the Devil's Backbone which has amazing views! The location of the ranch between Wimberley, Canyon Lake, San Marcos, New Braunfels and Blanco make it so accessible to so many wonderful activiites. However most often when folks get to the ranch they want to stay and simply enjoy the incredible property.
