We loved all the places to gather, in small groups and large. The bedrooms are all distinct, comfy suites. Outside, the spacious lawn slopes down to the Blanco, a lovely place to watch the sunset!
We enjoyed our stay. The house is close to everything and provided the perfect backdrop for our trip. The views of the Blanco River from the house are amazing. We look forward to going back when the weather is warmer.
Graduation was early 10:AM on Friday 5/9/25. So my family was coming from all over Texas & we met @ the Deep Water house on the river night before. When all arrived it was wonderful to have our own bedroom & bathroom to go to. After staying in San Marcos most all day it was wonderful to just chill out on the porch or running down to explore the river.We truly enjoyed every moment of our stay at that beautiful old large home!!

Lovely location, but...
The back yard is amazing with the river running by. The house is very large and the beds were comfortable. The house was an older house which I dont mind. What I did mind was the musty smell in the house, the water stinking of sulphur, a dirty hot tub that didntvwork, lught bulbs out

Family weekend
Love this place!
Online photos do not do justice. Better than we imagined. All bedrooms/bathrooms were far apart where no one else disturbed each other. Quiet outside as well. Water is crystal clear. Really close to town. Can't wait to come back.
Communication was great with Vacay.
The house has a ton of square footage. It has beautiful mature trees with lots of shade and a wonderful yard. The house could use a little TLC as it is 1970's old original everything, besides the kitchen. There is a sulfur smell to the water, but is most likely common in the area. Overall a beautiful huge house.

Great river frontage
This place was really nice and a super location. It was spacious and very comfortable for our large family. However, we did have trouble with no hot water in the extra external bedroom/bath and we smelled mold in that room as well as the basement bedroom. The hot tub was also not useable - it look dirty. That wasn't a really big deal but if it had been fall or winter, it may have been more important. Overall a nice home.

Deep Water on the Blanco was awesome!
The Deep Water on the Blanco is the perfect place for large groups. This is an older home but offers a variety of sleeping arrangements for all ages. The king beds in 4 of the bedrooms is a plus. The upstairs offers 2 large bunkbeds for all ages. It has 5 bathrooms throughout the home. The back porch is wonderful. A view of the river and the breeze makes it a place to hang out to eat or have a special beverage. The large living area is comfortable and they have plenty of large TV's. The pool room is fun for all. Playing pool or playing cards at the card table was perfect. I will come back here again. The location is perfect and so close to town. It is everything you want for a large group.

Location was great/House was ok
Great backyard and river access, deep enough for swimming. Plenty of shade for the boys to play. Pool table was great addition for entertainment. It’s an older house and needs someTLC. There were several broken windows with cardboard on them, wine frig was running hot, downstairs room smelled like mold as did the extra space not connected to home, one of the shower heads was not working properly, not much lighting outside. I expected the home to be in better condition for the price it cost to rent.

Most relaxing vacation ever!
Really a 4++ but that option wasn't available. Our whole family of grandparents, parents, and grandchildren loved our stay at Deep Water on the Blanco! We all loved the spacious upper deck, huge shaded yard, and the only water left in the Blanco R. for swimming, fishing, and a little float trip during severe drought of a summer! Kids adored having bunk room all to themselves. Super clean and well maintained for an older property. Loved the vintage pool table and furnishings. Only downside is basement bedroom is in serious need of regular airing out and a dehumidifier--just musty and humid, but you're at the lake so it's going to be humid. We look forward to returning.

The overall property was beautiful. Web photos need to be updated to reflect the “real” age of the property (dated). Overall cleanliness was poor. Sticky cabinets, trash under the Great Room sofa, deck tables were covered in “grung” and required great amounts of scrubbing before use. A DEEP cleaning is recommended.
Kitchen was nicely arranged and allowed for easy meal prep. WI-FI was unavailable in the downstairs bedroom.

Deep Water on the Blanco
Our group had a nice stay at Deep Water home. My husband and I slept in the cottage outside of the home. It was simple and clean although I wanted to mention a few things that needs attention...1. The water running out of the sink and shower has a very bad smell. Therefore, we could not use it at all and had to go into the house to shower and brush teeth. 2. Wifi does not reach into the cottage. Maybe an extender of some kind would fix this issue. 3. None of the bathroom sinks had hand soap and it would be nice to have this amenity included.
This home has a very lovely view from the backside facing the water.

Couples Retreat
This was our second time staying at this house for our couples Valentine's retreat, and it was just as wonderful as the first. The location is beautiful, the home has tons of space, and it's always stocked with everything we could possibly need. The host is incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with, which makes the whole experience even better. We're already looking forward to staying here many more times in the future!
This property is perfectly located with a spacious and beautiful home. We had so much room and loved the river access. The kids enjoyed the hot tub and we enjoyed the large yard for games.
We will absolutely stay here again!
We had a great time. Very spacious for us all.
Thank you very much.

Fantastic property!
Our family and friends loved this property for our river vacation! The house is very spacious but the best part is the yard and river frontage/access! Nice, large shaded yard and you step into the river into deeper water that the kids loved. We had a blast!
