Hello!
After years of enjoying this beautiful part of the Texas Hill Country along the Guadalupe River, we had the opportunity to purchase a little slice of this Texas heaven! Whether it's a couple's getaway, family vacation, girl's weekend or guy's trip, we are thrilled to share our little piece of paradise with you. If you're into fishing, hiking, tubing, kayaking, paddleboarding, nature watching, enjoying live music or just relaxing on a magical river engulfed by ancient cypress trees, we have everything you need to make your vacation a fun and enjoyable stay.
Our Name
I'm sure you're wondering why this little cabin that sits on a riverbank is named Misty Mountain. Well, when we first walked onto the property it was a warm summer morning. There was a vast difference between the warm air and cold, crisp river that created an awe-inspiring mist crawling along the water. As we stood along the bank soaking in this surreal moment, listening to the birds and wind dance through the giant cypress trees, the Led Zepplin song "Misty Mountain Hop" entered our minds, and the name was born.
"So I'm packing my bags
for the Misty Mountains
Where the spirits go now,
over the hills where the spirits fly"
Our History
Our cabin was one of many stone houses built along the Guadalupe River in 1956 to accommodate the workers associated with the construction of the Canyon Lake Dam, which was completed in 1964. Through the years, the families who have owned this property have taken great care in keeping much of the integrity of its authentic charm. The fireplace is original, as well as the stonework throughout. The cast iron kettle in the fireplace was once used to cook and heat water, and the master bedroom and living area was once used as a sleeping porch. Outside along the stone wall, you will find an antique outdoor fire pit that was once used as the original BBQ grill. There is so much beautiful history surrounding our cozy little home and we hope you enjoy it as well.
