This 'contemporary gem' near San Antonio was ranked among Vrbo's best vacation homes of 2023

A beautiful Hill Country retreat located around an hour north of San Antonio is among the nation's 10 best vacation rental properties, according to online vacation rental marketplace Vrbo.

Dubbed the Riverfront Hideaway, the 2,200-square-foot Dripping Springs villa was the only Texas home to make Vrbo's annual list.

The three-bedroom, two-bath property can comfortably sleep up to six people, according to its online listing. The home also features a fully equipped kitchen, an outdoor grill for July 4th barbecues and a wraparound terrace with stunning views of a nearby canyon.

The stunning property sits atop a 5-acre hilltop overlooking the Pedernales River, according to online details. The villa also is a stone's throw from wineries, breweries and boutiques.

Those views and amenities don't come cheap, however. The villa will set vacationers back by $413 a night, according to Vrbo.
