Peaceful and views beautiful.
5/5 I have loved visiting Blanco since 1995. A friend and I needed a break from Austin traffic and noise. We chose the River house for location. Across the road is Blanco State Park. The trees are gorgeous, very old live oaks, figs and pecan. The front porch has large comfy rocking chairs. We spent evenings listening to the wind blow and waved at everyone that drove by. The deer
tucked us in and woke up with us. The 1920's house has original oak floors. The icemaker kept us in cool drinks and coffee/ and tea greeted us in the early morning. The Redbud cafe still has the best Reuben Sandwich ever. Buchanan's Coffee House is delightful. Really good Chai and Lemon Danish fresh daily. Dinner two nights at Uptown Blanco Restaurant. Excellent service, fabulous food, and ambiance. This has become our favorite place for a quick break. We will be back.
Blanco Visit
5/5 This was our 2nd time staying at Betty B’s. We were there for the Hill Country Trail Ride. Our stay was very pleasant…planning on staying there next year.

Quaint getaway
5/5 Cozy cottage style home, plenty of wildlife to see. Loved the proximity to the river and was able to swim multiple times as well as visit many State parks in the surrounding areas.

Perfect house for our stay in Blanco!
5/5 We were in town for the weekend and this house was perfect! Close to everything we needed, great view of the Blanco River and very comfortable! We loved sitting in the rocking chairs on the covered porch while drinking our morning coffee. We will use it again next time we come visit family in Blanco.

Great amenities!
5/5 Super great place! Cute, clean, across from the state park, and they offer a lot of extras like snacks, hot chocolate, various Keurig coffee flavors, games to play in the house, outdoor games, and a fire pit. They were very responsive to questions. Each living area has own AC/heating unit with a remote and ceiling fans. Extra bedding also provided. They also provide a book of details about the house and the area! Also have a reasonable check out procedure. Great place!
