Folks who touch base with us often ask about access to water when they're looking to book their Hill Country hideaway. The Great Escape on the Medina has more than earned its name, with three access points to the river close by this fantastic waterfront vacation rental! This kid and pet-friendly guest house is in a picturesque country setting, but with quick access to great Hill Country towns like Medina and Bandera at the same time. All this comes with plenty of convenient amenities, too!

If you're looking to tube, swim, or fish the Medina River, there are three private places to do so, all within a short distance of the Great Escape-and at one of them, you can drive right up to the river's side! With the Lost Maples and Hill Country State Natural Areas within a half-hour's drive, nature lovers in your crew will have even more reasons to love this Hill Country vacation location.

The Great Escape on the Medina is surrounded by shady trees, and there's an enormous covered veranda loaded with comfy outdoor furniture, too! Outdoor lighting adds a magical sparkle to your nights here, and even the gas grill is covered and out of the elements. Gather your folks around the fire pit, admire the dazzling colors of a Hill Country sunset, and watch the stars come out-all with gorgeous mountain views in the background!

Modern lines and country touches mix perfectly in the Great Escape's interior, creating a friendly and comfortable space, kept just right with heating and air conditioning. Gleaming appliances and cookware, dining ware, and utensils round out the full kitchen and dining area, and there's also a washer/dryer combo for your cleanup convenience! Up to four of your folks will sleep in plush comfort here, on the queen-sized bed and big queen-sized air mattress. The full bath is equipped with a sparkling-clean and roomy shower stall, and all bed and bath linens are included during your stay. TV with local service and Wifi Internet are also on hand as your crew gathers in the living area!

Make the most of this fantastic riverside rental! For more information and easy booking, get a hold of us here at Backroads Reservations, and we'll get you on your way to this Hill Country haven!
