About this property

Comfort Acres on the Guadalupe River Ranch, secluded, House and Small Party Barn

  • Welcome to Comfort Acres—your private retreat on the Guadalupe River in the heart of the Texas Hill Country.

    Set on 9.5 peaceful acres with more than 1,200 feet of private river frontage,

    Comfort Acres offers the privacy, space, and natural beauty needed for a memorable getaway. Our completely renovated 1950s ranch house sleeps up to seven guests and is ideal for family vacations, weekends with friends, romantic escapes, and small gatherings.

    Spend your days fishing, swimming, kayaking, tubing, exploring the riverbank, or simply relaxing beneath the property’s mature pecan and oak trees. Start the morning with coffee overlooking the river, watch whitetail and axis deer cross the property, and end the evening on the porch beneath a sky filled with stars.
    Comfort Acres has welcomed guests for more than eight years and has earned an exceptional 10-out-of-10 rating from our VRBO guests. We take great pride in providing a clean, comfortable, and welcoming place where families and friends can make lasting memories.

    THE HOME
    Comfort Acres features three bedrooms and three bathrooms:
    • Primary suite with a king-size bed, private sitting area, and en-suite bathroom
    • Second bedroom with a queen-size bed and private bathroom
    • Upstairs loft with two twin beds and a built-in twin bed in a cozy reading and play area
    • Third full bathroom conveniently located downstairs

    The open-concept kitchen, dining area, and family room provide plenty of space to gather. The kitchen is fully equipped with appliances, cookware, dishes, and utensils for preparing meals during your stay.

    After a day on the river, relax in one of the four swivel recliners, watch television, read a book, or enjoy the river views through the two oversized sliding glass doors. A full-size washer and dryer are also available for your convenience.

    OUTDOOR LIVING
    With more than 1,000 square feet of decks and porches, there is plenty of room to enjoy the peaceful Hill Country setting. Share breakfast outside, visit with family and friends, watch the wildlife, or simply sit back and listen to the river and countryside.
    Guests are welcome to bring their own fishing gear, kayaks, tubes, water shoes, and personal flotation devices. River depth, flow, and accessibility naturally vary depending on rainfall and seasonal conditions.

    THE RED BARN
    The property’s original barn has been converted into a casual entertainment and gathering space known as the Red Barn. It is perfect for family time, games, birthday celebrations, reunions, and other small gatherings.

    Small events may be permitted with prior approval and within the limits stated in our VRBO policies. Please contact us before booking if you are considering a birthday party, family reunion, small wedding, or other special occasion.

    A TOUCH OF TEXAS HISTORY
    One of the home’s most unusual features is an 1860s George Steck square grand piano displayed in the music room. This rare instrument was transported to Texas by oxen and adds a wonderful sense of history and character to the home.

    FAMILY- AND DOG-FRIENDLY
    Children especially enjoy the loft’s reading and play area, outdoor space, and room to explore. Parents should always supervise children around the river, decks, stairs, wildlife, and other outdoor areas.

    Comfort Acres also welcomes up to two dogs within the size limits and requirements shown in our house rules. Because this is a country property with wildlife and river frontage, dogs should remain supervised and under their owner’s control.

    PRIVATE, YET CLOSE TO HILL COUNTRY ATTRACTIONS
    Although Comfort Acres feels wonderfully private and secluded, it is conveniently located near many popular Hill Country destinations:
    • Approximately five miles from historic downtown Comfort
    • About 15 minutes from Kerrville
    • About 20 minutes from Fredericksburg
    • About 30 minutes from Boerne
    • About 45 minutes from The Rim, La Cantera, and Six Flags Fiesta Texas
    • About one hour from San Antonio International Airport, depending on traffic

    Explore Comfort’s antique shops, local restaurants, and small-town charm. Visit nearby wineries such as Singing Water Vineyards and Bending Branch Winery, enjoy lunch and shopping at the historic Camp Verde General Store, or take an easy day trip to Fredericksburg, Kerrville, Boerne, or San Antonio.

Very impressed with the location and property. It has a remote feel, yet close enough to several amenities. We started our day antique shopping in Comfort and then had fun in Fredericksburg one day and chilling in the Guadalupe another day. Evenings spent grilling out and much laughter!

An amazing spot on the river!

Stan’s place is absolutely wonderful! We came to the area to view the eclipse with our family from France, and were truly blown away by this beautiful spot. The setting is stunning, with beautiful open space along the river, wildlife, amazing wildflowers, and gorgeous scenery. The house itself is lovely-super spacious, very nicely remodeled, and very comfortable. The location is perfect for exploring the Hill Country-it’s an easy drive to Kerrville, Fredericksburg, and San Antonio. There’s a market just 6 minutes down the road. Most of all, Stan was an incredibly welcoming and gracious host, and provided farm fresh eggs and wine as a welcome gift. We hope to return someday soon!!

A little piece of heaven in the middle of Texas

We came in town for a family wedding that was down the road in Center point and were excited to find this instead of dealing with a hotel. This is such a hidden gem and the pictures online do not do the house or the gorgeous property justice. The home has been beautifully remodeled. You can definitely see the care taken of the home and the grounds. After we got acquainted with the house we spent hours wandering around outside and down at the river. Our girls, who are 12 & 15, just roamed and enjoyed the out doors. They quickly requested to come back. The amenities in the house were great and all 6 of us were extremely comfortable. We received fresh eggs from their chickens which was really exciting to enjoy. Spring time is especially beautiful with the wildflowers in the front of the property and the back. Excellent communication with the owner/designee (Cruz). Thank you for sharing your lovely home and allowing us to travel with our 4-legged baby as well. We will be back!!!
