Grandson's First Hunt

November 2025

We were looking for a place to stay in Blanco for our grandson's first hunt. Betty B's was only a short drive from the land and had room for 7 so we thought we'd try it. It was so much more than a place to stay. Everything about Betty B's is perfect. From the cozy rooms to the front porch overlooking the Blanco River. The outdoor space with the treehouse was great and so many deer to watch. The kitchen was equipped with everything needed. And the antique doors! My grandkids loved it and so did we! We'll be back!

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.

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!
