Pros & Cons

The house itself was fine, nothing special but adequate for our two-night stay. Though compact, the kitchen was pretty well appointed and we were able to make our Thanksgiving side dishes. Be advised there is no dishwasher. Also, decent coffee mugs are needed! When we arrived, the house had not been cleaned. Spencer was very apologetic and got a couple over later that evening to do a quick cleaning. The house was better but not spotless. Spencer comped us one night due to the cleaning schedule mix-up, which was much appreciated. The street is super noisy—loud motor noises from the grocery across the street and lots of motorcycles. That could be a problem for fussy sleepers and napping babies. As advertised, the back yard has a nice fire pit area, seating, long table, and dog proof fence. With the river access, I can see the house being a fun place during warm weather. I would give the house 4 stars but for it not being cleaned prior to our arrival.

Cute house with river access

We enjoyed the house and property greatly. As expected, the river was down, but it was still a lovely scene in the back of the property and we took advantage of walking around and enjoying the outdoors. The house is adorable, and well equipped. The only minor thing to be aware of is the noise from the grocery store coolers; you get used to it, but it's a constant hum like a lawn mower. Overall, highly recommend this location for adults and families with older kids!

11th Street House Bandera Texas

House was comfortable for our small group. Older home but well updated. Challenging route to the river via a long wood staircase and some distance across mildly grown up bottom land. The Medina is one of the prettiest rivers in Texas. Not at it’s best during this long dry period we’re having. The host was very responsive and the house was very clean. The area pleasantly surprised us with two very interesting museums, fun shops and solid small town Texas restaurants. 15 minutes to Medina,Tx for apple cinnamon soft serve at Love’s Apple Store and about 20 minutes to Camp Verde for a nice restaurant/store and beautiful grounds to enjoy. Our trip was a success!

Wonderful Home in the Heart of the City

We greatly enjoyed our stay in the 11th Street River House. The house was immaculate and had a great layout, so you can tell the owners take a lot of pride in their property. The river access was a little further of a walk than we expected, but the location was excellent. All of the places we wanted to go to were within and walking distance. We had a great stay and will definitely be coming back!

Bandera stay

Comfortable house. It did not have k-cup as advertised and the yard needed to be cut. We really weren't there except to sleep and clean up. Everything overall was good. Lots of different levels to negotiate getting in and out of the house. Not old people friendly.
