We had a group of 5 families stay at Blanco Valley Lodge for a summer-time long weekend. The house is huge and in great shape. There were plenty of rooms and bathrooms as well as ample kitchen and dining space and lots of fun things to do (swim, shuffleboard, pool table, ping pong). The only downside was that the river was dry (as of June 2023), but it’s still a lovely spot with pretty views. I would also note that the swimming pool is fairly deep (I would estimate it’s at least 4 feet deep at the shallow end, and most of the pool is 5-7 feet deep, so might not be ideal for smaller children/people who aren’t strong swimmers.) We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
