Stay in a Luxury Tree House by the Guadalupe River in Texas

Live out your childhood dream by staying in a treehouse this summer. Now don’t think you’ll be roughing it by staying at River Road Treehouses, which are six well-constructed tree houses located near New Braunfels, Texas. The houses, which are actually small cabins built into 80-foot cypress trees, are equipped with modern amenities. Take a break away from city life by staying at River Road Treehouses near the Guadalupe River.

Many visitors stay at River Road Treehouses because of the easy access to the Guadalupe River. The cabins are not on the river, but only a short walk on the River Road Treehouses’ property. The treehouses themselves are well-equipped with today’s conveniences, such as wifi, satellite TV, indoor bathroom, a full kitchen and air-conditioning and heating.

These treehouses hang above a seasonal creek bed, so a lovely footbridge easily takes you across the creek to your private treehouse. For those wanting to put in time on the Guadalupe River, simply walk across River Road to gain access to 400 feet of exquisite river frontage. This spot is a great area to take your tube, wade in the water or even fish. Apparently, trout frequent this part of the river, so fishermen may just have a great opportunity to experience a good catch.

Since River Road Treehouses are located between New Braunfels and Canyon Lake, guests are centrally located to some of the Hill Country’s best attractions. After a day tubing on the Guadalupe River or boating at Canyon Lake, take a drive to the historic Gruene Hall or to San Marcos Outlet Malls. A family-friendly attraction near the treehouses is also Schlitterbahn, a popular water park that is the perfect spot to cool off during Texas’ hot summer days.

No matter how you spend your stay, you shouldn’t miss spending your evenings near the river access point at River Road Treehouses where hammocks, fire pits, chairs and picnic tables await. This Hill Country treasure is such a beautiful lodging option for couples, families and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
