From Round Rock and Cedar Park you're looking at roughly 1 hr 15, from downtown Austin about an hour, and from Buda or Kyle closer to 45 minutes. It's one of the easiest weekend cabin escapes from the Austin metro without driving 3 hours to the Frio." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Is Son's Rio Cibolo faster than driving to the Frio, Guadalupe, or Comal from Austin?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Yes — and by a lot. The Frio is a 3–3.5 hour haul from Austin. New Braunfels (Guadalupe/Comal) is closer to 45 minutes but comes with holiday-weekend traffic, tubing shuttles, and party crowds. Son's Rio Cibolo is roughly 1 hour south with no shuttle needed — you kayak or paddleboard, walk back, and launch again as many times as you want on our private 2-mile stretch of Cibolo Creek." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What's the best route from Austin — SH-130 or I-35?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "SH-130 (toll) is our top pick for weekends and Friday evenings — it bypasses the worst of the I-35 corridor and drops you onto US-90 near Seguin. If you're avoiding tolls or coming from West Austin, I-35 south to New Braunfels then east on TX-46 works fine. Either way you'll exit toward Marion, TX and be at the property in about 60–75 minutes from most of Austin." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Can Austin families do this as a day trip, or should we stay overnight?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Both work. Day rentals (10:30 AM – 6:30 PM) let you drive down, grab a creekside cabana or covered picnic table, kayak all day, and be home in Austin by bedtime. But most Austin families tell us the overnight stay is what makes it worth the drive — evening creek time, fire pits, stargazing, and morning coffee on a private deck are hard to replicate on a day trip." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What types of cabins and glamping are available for Austin visitors?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Four options, all with air conditioning (important for Texas summers): Waterfront Cabins with full kitchens right on Cibolo Creek, Deluxe Safari Cabins that sleep up to 7, cozy Glamping Cabins, and furnished Bell Tents with real beds and A/C. Every unit includes fire pits, BBQ grills, and full access to 3 pools, 4 hot tubs, kayaks/paddleboards, and the game room." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Why choose Cibolo Creek over tubing the Guadalupe or Comal?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "For Austin families with kids, Cibolo Creek is calmer, cleaner, and quieter. It's spring-fed and stays around 72°F all summer, there's no tubing shuttle, no coolers of strangers floating by, and we're strictly family-only — no alcohol on kayaks, no party groups, quiet after 10 PM. It feels like a private backyard on the water instead of a public float trip." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Is Son's Rio Cibolo pet-friendly or kid-friendly?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Kid-friendly, yes — pet-friendly, no. The property is strictly pet-free and smoke-free, which keeps cabins clean and works well for Austin families with allergies. The booking guest must be 25 or older, no loud party groups, and the property is quiet after 10 PM. Coming from Austin you'll notice the difference right away — it's built for families, not bachelor parties." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "When should Austin families book — and what about ACL, F1, and SXSW weekends?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Austin event weekends (ACL, F1, SXSW) are actually a great reason to head south — the cabins fill fast as locals escape downtown chaos, so book 2–3 months out. Summer weekends (June–August) also book 2–3 months in advance for peak creek weather. Winter weekdays are our best deals for couples or small Austin families looking for a quiet Hill Country getaway." } } ] }, { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "VideoObject", "name": "Son's Rio Cibolo Video", "description": "Glamping, kayaking, and cabin rentals on the spring-fed Cibolo Creek at Son's Rio Cibolo near San Antonio, Texas.", "thumbnailUrl": [ "https://img.youtube.com/vi/tMQPQIwO0Sg/maxresdefault.jpg" ], "uploadDate": "2024-01-01", "contentUrl": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMQPQIwO0Sg", "embedUrl": "https://www.youtube.com/embed/tMQPQIwO0Sg", "publisher": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Son's Rio Cibolo", "logo": { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://sonsriocibolo.com/apple-touch-icon.png" } } }, { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "VideoObject", "name": "Son's Rio Cibolo Video", "description": "Glamping, kayaking, and cabin rentals on the spring-fed Cibolo Creek at Son's Rio Cibolo near San Antonio, Texas.", "thumbnailUrl": [ "https://img.youtube.com/vi/sdpkiuAdj3w/maxresdefault.jpg" ], "uploadDate": "2024-01-01", "contentUrl": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdpkiuAdj3w", "embedUrl": "https://www.youtube.com/embed/sdpkiuAdj3w", "publisher": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Son's Rio Cibolo", "logo": { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://sonsriocibolo.com/apple-touch-icon.png" } } } ] --- [🌊 Sun–Thu Special! $99 Waterfront Cabins & $79 Deluxe Safari Cabins This Week! — BOOK NOW 🏡 🌊 $99 Waterfront Cabins Weekdays — BOOK NOW 🏡 ](/book-now#sons-rio-cibolo) [![Son's Rio Cibolo](/assets/sons-rio-cibolo-logo-DbY3PcpM.webp)](/) [Stay Overnight](/stay-overnight) [Day Rentals](/day-rentals) [Activities](/activities)[Property Map](/property-map) [Plan Your Visit](/plan-your-visit) [About](/about) [Reunions & Groups](/reunions-groups)[Specials](/specials)[Waivers](/waivers)[Contact](/contact) [(877) 577-7667](tel:877-577-7667)Book Now [](tel:877-577-7667)Book Now ![Family cabins and glamping about 1 hour south of Austin on spring-fed Cibolo Creek.](/assets/hero-riverfront-cabins-C2aWQ3jA.webp) # Overnight Cabins & Glamping Near Austin # Overnight Cabins & Glamping Near Austin — 1 Hr South on SH-130 Skip the 290 crawl.
