The short answer
The River Bend Bliss river house is a fully furnished vacation rental in Cedar Creek, Texas, about 30 minutes from Austin. It has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, sleeps up to 10 guests, and includes a stocked kitchen, an 80-inch TV, arcade games, a workspace, Wi-Fi and a backyard on the Colorado River.
This house was bought as a fix-and-flip. Then the renovation crew cleared the backyard, found the Colorado River running along the property line, and the plan changed. Every room was rebuilt with guests in mind — not just to look good in photos, but to be comfortable for a long weekend or a long stay. Read the full story.
Inside the renovated river house
The open living room centers on a big reclining sectional and an 80-inch TV, with arcade games for rainy afternoons and late nights. The kitchen was redone top to bottom with new counters, cabinets and stainless appliances, and it's stocked with the cookware and tableware you need to cook for a crowd. A dining table seats the group, and a separate desk gives remote workers a real place to plug in.
The bedrooms have plush beds and Roku TVs, and the bunk room makes the kids' sleeping arrangements easy. Both bathrooms were fully renovated, including a tiled walk-in shower. There is a washer and dryer in the house, too.

From house guests
Clean, stocked and right on the river.
“We were able to use the bassinet and pack n play they have available for our infant. Everything was clean and easy to find in the house. My husband and older kids had a blast with the kayak rentals on the river while I got to relax on the large deck with the baby. The fire pit in the backyard was perfect for s'mores on our last night.”
“Amazing house and location! It was clean, well stocked, comfortable… We loved sitting riverside with a bonfire one night, and then sitting on the deck by the water the next morning. It's the perfect weekend getaway!”
“The overall experience was incredible, and the house exceeded all our expectations. The interior was spacious, cozy, and tastefully decorated. The views from the house were breathtaking. We truly felt at home during our stay.”
