Even though school has already started, and fall is right around the corner, summer’s not over yet! You still have time for a staycation — and River Ranch Inn is the place to go. This inn is no run-of-the-mill resort. It’s a unique retreat designed to help you relax and escape. Read on for all the details!
Keeping Austin Weird
River Ranch Inn is on the San Gabriel River right here in Liberty Hill, only 45 minutes from the music capital of the world (Austin, TX). It’s been there since the early ‘90s when well-known Austinite Jenna Radtke opened the inn as part of the “Keep Austin Weird” movement.
The eclectic rooms she designed undoubtedly pay homage to that. You won't be able to take your eyes off the colorfully whimsical themes. Each of the eight rooms received its name based on its unique decor. Take Orion (meaning "giant"), for instance. This room is the largest with one king bed, one queen bed, and walls splashed with red- and golden-hued art. The designers thoughtfully crafted every square foot, even the fridge and kitchen cabinet doors.
All rooms have two bedrooms, one full bath, a kitchenette, and a dining area. And each has 24-hour access to the river for swimming, fishing, kayaking, and paddle boarding.
Rest, Relaxation, and Adventure
Besides the river fun we mentioned, you can explore much of the Hill Country, from Liberty Hill to Marble Falls to Burnet. Trek the 1,300 miles of trails in the Williamson County parks next door, or find your adventures on the inn’s 500 feet of riverfront playground.
Not in the mood, or just want to chill? Relax and unwind in a hammock, kick back around a fire-pit in the bamboo forest, watch the sunset riverside, then look up at the star-spangled sky, searching for shooting stars. The inn is far enough from the city that there’s little light pollution, so the night sky is its own adventure.
Day Trippin’
If you want to enjoy more urban-style fun, take a day or night trip to Austin for good food, cold drinks, and music on 6th Street. In fact, you can practically find a music festival there almost any time of the year. Like the Austin City Limits bash in October and that little event called South by Southwest in March.
You could also tour the local distilleries and wineries and explore venture to the extra-large HEB Plus, just 7 miles down the road for snacks and any last-minute day trip gear.
Book Your Next Event
You could also consider River Ranch Inn to host your next event or wedding. You can book the whole resort for weddings, parties, and overnight events. Think family reunions, anniversary celebrations, work get-togethers, or just because!
