VERY clean room and super nice host

Host was super nice and accommodating. Room was spotless and had everything we needed. Had a place to hold the boat w/ suspenders that worked well keeping it from hitting the dock and bulkhead. Parking space was plentiful to park the trailer and truck.

Great Place to Relax

A great spot to relax and leave your worries behind; Beautiful view of the Arroyo Colorado, a front row seat to enjoy nature. The fishing is pretty good too. The owner is friendly and helpful. My husband and I enjoyed our stay at this peaceful place.

Owner was very nice.

The owner has a big heart and has rescue dogs that woke us up each morning at 3:00-4:00 am. This is our only issue we had with the property.

10/10 Will return

We recently spent our vacation at River's Edge. 100% will return. Terri was the best hostess! The accommodations were exceptionally clean and comfortable, the environment was tranquil and relaxing and the location was conveniently located near the Atascosa National Wildlife Refuge and within driving distance to South Padre Island and Brownsville wildlife spots.

Anniversary fun

What an amazing weekend. This is a beautiful property with an amazing host. The suite was cozy and clean and had everything we needed to make this weekend a dream. The private pier was what we needed for a fun filled fishing trip. The fish were biting!!

Great place to stay if you like to fish.

I really enjoyed my stay. The room was very simple but very clean and with a lot of thoughtful touches. The owner lives on site and was very welcoming. When I arrived I had a tasty chicken salad sandwich and brownies waiting for me. That was awesome. The room has a nice microwave but no stove top/oven. Not a big deal to me. If you like to fish you will love this area. There are endless areas to fish and explore by boat. Or you can sit on the dock and fish. I caught fish right off the dock at night under the lights. I will try to stay here again on my next trip to Arroyo City. Marc
