This place is awesome. I could leave it at that, but since I have so much else to say about it, I'll carry on.
This was the second year that a group of us gals has gone to the Frio for a 4-day trip to tube, hang out, chat and relax. Last year, we rented a place from another company, and although it was fairly decent, this place kicked that place's butt! I don't think we'll be renting from anyone but 7Bluff again.
The cabin was very clean, comfortable and RIGHT by the river. All the windows on the back of the cabin made it feel like the outdoors was inside, without any bugs or racoons to worry about. Awesome view of the river and yard (HUGE yard (with a swing set!), big enough so if you had kids, they could run around and still stay within earshot and far enough from the river so they weren't going to trip and fall into it while chasing lightning bugs) It had a great flat-screen tv, also.
It was great being able to just pick up our tubes and walk to the river to float around instead of having to pack them up, drive them to a place, unpack, then pack up, haul back, etc. Having this convenience made it easy for those who were done before others to just go to the cabin and relax for a bit while waiting for the rest of us who were busy getting all pruny-fingered in the river.
The kitchen was equipped with nice utensils - not those that look like someone cleaned out their old stuff and said "Oh, this is good enough for the cabin, it's only camping." The only thing I'd suggest is to bring an extra pop-up table if you have more than 5 or 6 - we went with 9 and were glad we had the extra table. Also, make sure and bring camp chairs - there isn't much seating inside, and although there are chairs on the porch, not many, and none around the firepit.
Speaking of the firepit, be sure to double-check burn restrictions - they hadn't updated their site, so the info we got was from last year - and we didn't bring any wood. We were jealous of the neighbors who had nice fires going.
Overall, I can't say enough good stuff about this place. I can't wait to go back! read more
