Paradise on the River A Beautiful fully furnished 2 Bed, 2 Bath home on the San Marcos River. The house has everything you will need. Full kitchen, washer, dryer, Propane grill , wi-Fi. 50 " TV, also another Smart Tv located in primary bd - Hulu Netflix, No cable ; lots of DVDs Quiet neighborhood other than you may hear neighborhood peacocks whom roam around the hood. There are many trees along with 6 rainscapes plantedwith all native plants on the one acre property. Down the hill is 80 yards to the river. It has a gorgeous view of the winding river, rocks and trees. There is a hammock and plenty of water to swim, fish, kayak, rest, float etc..The cabin is comfortable and cozy for approx 5 people. Please make sure that if you do have 5 in your group that it is the same 5 people that checked in together. This is a quiet residential neighborhood with a few other short term rentals that reside in the hood and we want to have good rapport with all of our other neighbors whom are owners that live here long- term. Being that this is a quiet neighborhood other folks living here in the neighborhood like to enjoy hearing wildlife and nature rather than loud disturbances from guests.No loud parties allowed, drunkenness loud visiting outside after 9 on weekdays and 11:00 on weekends.Please also do not play music from any devices down at the river and if by the house please keep it low. It’s much nicer hearing tranquility of nature.Thank you for being a considerate guest. The river is approx 75 yards from the house . There are 3 levels going down. You may park on the 2nd level just before the last one if you want but we just ask that you keep your vehicle parked there for that day for the most part as to not be driving up and down too often which might disturb next door neighbors .You may access the river on our property . This is on a navigable river, where the public is allowed to use. Neighbors should also be welcome to come on our side of the river as well. There are many laws pertaining to River rights to the public in a navigable riverthat is good to be familiarized with. Our neighbors just downstream from our properties, adjoin ours and they like to have privacy so please be considerate of their spacewhen you are swimming or floating downstream, where they may be.Your safety is important to us as well and hope that you are able to walk back upstream along the beds of the river to access getting back to our side. Thank you also for being good stewards of the river and leaving no trace behind ; cleaning up any litter you may have on you.There is a recycling area at the back of the house and several trash cans that you may utilize. My spouse and I are currently residing in the little tiny house addition that is connected to the main house where you are renting/staying . There is a chance that we may see each other somewhere on the 1 acre property During your stay, however, we value your space and privacy and will not likely be down at the river when you are hanging there or in any other spaces on the property where there’s picnic tables and grills and etc. so that you can have the place mostly to yourselves.
