"El Castell" - on the Llano River (Entire Property - 4 Cabins)

Enjoy the scenic beauty of the Hill Country at "El Castell". Nestled along the banks of the spring-fed Llano River we provide 4 cabins which serves as the perfect get-a-way from the hustle and bustle of city life, or home base to explore the outdoors.

Located across the street from the charming Castell General Store where you can enjoy great beers and one of the best burgers in Texas!

River swims, area hikes, fly fishing, hunting for topaz, llanite, quartz, exploring hill country towns await!

If you are looking for a quiet remote place to get away, this is the place! Bring your bikes, kayaks (or you can rent ours!), fly rods/fishing poles and relax + enjoy. We are located across the street from the Castell General Store so make sure you drop into and get yourself a cold beer and 3/4 lb burger (Best Burger in Texas, promise!). They jokingly call it "Luckenbach by the Llano River" according to an article written by Texas Monthly...so come for a few days or longer and really decompress, relax and breathe in the beautiful Texas Hill Country air or watch shooting stars streak across the sky.

With this booking, you will have access to the entire 3-acre property on the Llano River which includes our beautiful Llano River waterfront - and the privacy therein.

The main 2 cabins, which we call "Main House", are about 75 feet from the riverfront and are connected by a large breezeway deck with each cabin a total of 952 sq. ft. each. These are Cabins C & D.

We also have 2 individual cabins offset out front (closer to the road) that are also completely self-sufficient at 427 sq. ft. each. These are Cabins A & B.

Don't forget to rent Kayaks or Bikes for the entirety of your stay!

Rustic Luxury on the Llano
We rented all 4 cabins for a family gathering to view eclipse. Best equipped kitchens we've ever had through VRBO!! Host was very helpful and a pleasure to work with. Plenty of wood provided for evening campfires and grilling on oak/mesquite coals was a real treat. Huge covered balconies were a real treat. River front is lovely and several enjoyed some fly fishing. Great for family gatherings in Texas Hill Country!

Always a great time
A group of us comes every year to ride the Castell Grind route and the cabins are always such a great time. Very clean and the well-stocked fire pit is always fun to hang out at!

Great Hill Country spot
Remarkable property with everything you need to stay put for days, but well situated for a hill country base. The layout of the property with so much space, private and communal, made it a great location for 3 families with kids and some extra adults. We'll definitely be coming back.

A great weekend at the river
My family and I enjoyed a fantastic weekend at the cabins. We shared the property with two other families. The cabins comfortably fit all 6 adults and 7 children. The cabins were well equipped with all the supplies we needed. The location on this section of the Llano is great for relaxing, swimming, and fishing. The kids were able to safely play in the river. We caught a number of Guadalupe bass, sunfish, and even a couple of largemouths. The Castell General Store is just across the street and a great place to stop in for a meal after a day on the river. We had one minor water issue (one of the sprinkler pipes was leaking on arrival) and the hosts quickly responded and fixed the problem without disturbing our stay at all. In short, our whole group very much enjoyed our stay and can't wait to book the cabins again next year!
