Beautiful scenery
We enjoyed the quiet peaceful atmosphere that this cabin had to offer. Even though the Medina water level is low, we were able find enough water to float on tubes and enjoy the natural surroundings. This place had everything we needed to cookout and a spacious porch to hang out in the morning. Carol and Lyn were great hostesses! We will definitely be back.

Holiday Away From Home
A rough-looking drive into the property, not in the owner's control, was offset by the setting when we arrived at the cabin. Quiet, secluded, well designed for relaxing on the porch watching deer and the creek view. Owners are delightful and set up a Christmas Day potluck for the campers and locals that was very nice. Strangers enjoying each other's company. Will return in a different season.

Our Eclipse experience was made immaculate by the setting of this gorgeous property & river access…. It was the perfect place for family & close friends to share experiences together and make memories. Lots of beds for everyone, a good kitchen for family meals, and the best spot for relaxing adventures…! Highly recommend!!!

What a delight!
We loved our stay in the cabin! The whole team was so friendly and helpful with any questions. They even helped us with our flat tire. The beds were clean, soft, and comfortable. The kitchen and bath were well stocked. Access to the river is quick and easy. We loved getting to feed to deer, birds, and squirrels. Our dog loved the large porch. We definitely plan to come back!

Beautiful Nature with the Conveniences of Home
We absolutely loved our stay in Carol-Anne & Lyn's cabin on the Medina!! They, Andrea, and the pups were so welcoming, kind, & helpful. Since this place is on the river, I had prepared myself for a lower expectation of cleanliness, but was I wrong & so pleasantly surprised. The cabin was incredibly clean & tidy! It had all the comforts of home when it came to the kitchen, so cooking and grilling was a breeze. Plenty of plush towels & extras. The beds were comfortable and the bedding was soft & inviting. The one private access bedroom was perfect for our adult daughter & the bunk beds were fun for our two little ones. We loved having coffee on the huge porch with the wildlife. This is such a safe & peaceful property. The river is a short trek away with plenty of spots to soak & explore. I was worried about finding a quiet spot on the river for the day, but it was the complete opposite. There is plenty of amazing riverfront to spread out from others, but also opportunities to say hi to other visitors if you like. The water was so clear with beautiful views! Our kids loved catching frogs & crawdads in the evenings. Bandera is nearby if you need anything, plus they have some needed items in the office for sale. We ordered pizza from the Dough Joe in town & it was excellent. Thank you so much for the wonderful vacation & for all your hospitality! Your efforts toward guest comfort & extras show! This was one of the best & most relaxing trips we have taken. Highly recommended!

Great stay - dog sitting too!
We had a fabulous time here! The house was cozy and clean and right next to the water. Our family loved building a rock dam and skipping rocks on the colder days and floating on the river in tubes on the warmer days. We went into San Antonio one day. Our dog stayed at the cabin. The owner took Penny out for a long walk for a very reasonable fee. It was great to know that Penny was taken care of while we were visiting the sites in San Antonio. Thank you!

Great cabin with awesome views
We very much enjoyed our stay. The views were great and there is plenty of room for kids to explore. The river was low, but that didn't dampen the fun we had. The location is a little secluded, but still close to State parks and the town of Bandera. All in all, if you want a peaceful spot, this is the place.

Wonderful! A hill country haven!
What a special place to relax and enjoy the Medina! The cabin was clean, very well equipped and so comfortable! The covered deck facing the river provided a lovely place to watch the birds, the river, and families enjoying this fantastic setting. My dog enjoyed it as much as I did! Best of all, the owners and the camp host were amazing.., welcoming and attentive. I would recommend Boulderdash cabin! I know I will be back as soon as I can!!

My husband and I truly enjoyed our trip to the cabin. We really enjoyed our walk along the river and sat on the front porch and listened to the water flowing. The cabin was spotless and had way more room then what we were expecting. Also the bed was very comfortable.

Second Stay at Boulderdash
We enjoyed our stay so much. Much needed downtime for us. The cabin is super cute, the rustic details are perfect for river life. We didn’t spend much time inside most of time was spent on the river or the porch watching the wildlife. We will be back, again!

Great getaway!
Campsite was private and relaxing. We hiked along the river, kids kayaked a bit, and hubby fished. The quiet was much needed. My only concern was the cleanliness....the shower curtain was moldy and the couch was patched with what looked like a giant bandaid. ...made me wonder if the rest of the cabin had been adequately cleaned and sanitized.

great location for families
We love Boulderdash cabin. We loved the location. We were not treated nicely by property manager when I had a few family members arrive for the day. This was upsetting especially after seeing the camping spots next to us had people coming and going every day. I didn't feel we were treated fairly. I felt we were treated like criminals however later in the day the property manager did apologize and tried to make things right. I appreciated him doing that. Beside this issue, we loved Boulderdash and would go again. My kids had a great time looking for frogs and crawdads. We also did some fishing. Boulderdash owners were kind enough to allow us to bring our dogs which we loved. We would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful Weekend!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Boulderdash! The cabin was perfect for our family and we all had a wonderful time. The cabin was clean and well stocked with everything we needed, and our kids loved the DVD collection. We had a great time hiking up and down the riverbed and loved seeing all of the deer and other wildlife. Andrea and her family were wonderful hosts and invited our girls up to feed the deer, which they absolutely loved. The owners were easy to reach when we had an issue with the door code, and resolved our issue smoothly so we could get right in and enjoy our stay. We hope to be back again!
