Blue Getaway in the Hill Country

Kerrville is one of the largest towns in the beautiful Hill Country, and it's a great place for a relaxing family escape! The Blue Getaway just outside of town is a fantastic "home base" for your Hill Country vacation; it's a kid-friendly space with comfortable accommodations for up to 16 people. The two sides of this brand-new duplex-style guest home feature amenities like hot tubs, fire pits, outdoor waterfalls, Wi-Fi, electric fireplaces, and more. It's a peaceful setting with the best of both town and country!

There's even more to love about the Getaway's location! For more Hill Country exploration and river-based fun, Bandera, the Cowboy Capital of the World, is just 25 miles from the Blue Getaway, with access to great shops, restaurants, nightlife, and tubing and swimming on the Medina River. That's TWO great Hill Country towns and rivers close by!

The Blue Getaway is a new duplex, colored a brilliant light blue, which blends in nicely with those pretty Hill Country skies. Ample parking is available in front of the duplex. It's divided into two sections, the Blue Retreat and Blue Oasis, both of its halves nicely matched and furnished with comfort and relaxation in mind. That's apparent even before you walk in the door!

(A quick note here: you are renting BOTH sides of this building. The Blue Retreat and Blue Oasis are two halves of a whole, and are designed to mirror the same amenities and basic exterior and interior setups. For ease of description, and to avoid repetition, the details listed below should be understood to apply to both the Retreat and Oasis sides of the Getaway)

Whether you're sipping a quiet morning's cup of coffee or sharing stories with your whole family, there's plenty of space to do it outside! Both sides of the Blue Getaway have a spacious open deck with a large umbrella for shading, and a pergola section of the deck that's covered and permanently shaded. There's also plenty of outdoor furniture for everyone to enjoy the fresh Hill Country breezes in comfort. To add a magical sparkle to your nights, the pergola area of the deck is fitted with sparkling string lighting and a peacefully-cascading waterfall feature. In addition, there's more intimate and private space on the smaller deck on the second level, just outside the master bedroom.

Soothe away those daily-grind blues in the warm and bubbling hot tub out on the main deck, one on each side of the Getaway! Once you dry off, gather your folks around the fire pit for conversation, stargazing, and a tasty fire-roasted snack. If your appetite is fired up for a full feast, there are gas grills on hand for hearty Texas cookouts! Please note the Blue Getaway property does not allow pets.

From ceiling to floor, the interior spaces of both the Retreat and Oasis are totally new! They're tastefully outfitted with comfy living area furniture, electric fireplaces to take the chill out of those cooler nights, and central air to soothe during hot Texas summers. For further climate control, there are ceiling fans throughout the Getaway, too! The TVs here are Roku-equipped, and you can access your streaming accounts with the Wifi service included. Gleaming, modern appliances fill the kitchen, which includes cookware, serving ware, utensils, and glasses. Whip up your morning joe with the combo coffee maker, with both regular and K-Cup brewing options. What's more, you'll have comfortable and enjoyable meal space inside and out, with dining tables both inside and out on the deck.

A small decorative spiral staircase inside winds up to the second floor. (The spiral stairs are somewhat narrow, and may pose an issue for the mobility-impaired; a wider staircase outside offers access from the deck to the second story.) Upstairs, there's a main bedroom and a loft. The bedroom has a soft queen-sized bed, and the loft has two bunk bed setups, with a total of four twin beds. Add to that a queen-sized sofa sleeper, and there's sweet slumber space for up to eight people. That's just on one side of the duplex; double that for sleeping space for a sweet sixteen guests total! All the beds here feature adjustable Posturpedic mattresses for an added level of comfort. Each side has two clean full bathrooms, one upstairs and one downstairs, equipped with glass-walled shower stalls (for a total of four baths). All the sleeping and cleanup spaces include clean linens for your added comfort. If your stay here is going to be three days or longer, washer and dryer access is also available.
