Lovely little chalet type rooms near the creek but also just off Main Street. Lovely touch to be given food to feed the ducks and deer. Firepit and logs outside to sit and chill in the evening. Unexpectedly good shower. Well thought out room (we were #2)

I liked everything about this property. Great staff, exceptionally clean, modern facilities and great location. Couldn’t fault it and wouldn’t want to. It’s a great hotel. Can even share streaming from your phone onto the TV. Great extra perk for those down times.

If you love Texas, cowboys and the old west Bandera is the place for you - it’s a step back in time to the 1950s - be sure and eat breakfast at the O.S.T. cafe and sit in the John Wayne room - have a beer at the 11th Street Cowboy bar

We went to ride the Twisted Sisters highway & see the scenery. We enjoyed the shops in town & locals were so friendly. We ate at the OST resturant which was excellent & the staff were fun & went out of there way to help. The town being small was pretty crowded during the weekend, if your on motorcycles suggeste you park on a side street and walk to your choice shop or resturant than you can get out easier than on the main street, but it was doable so just don't get in a hurry and you'll enjoy it!

Bandera was a let down for us.
Bandera was a let down for us. We stopped in at a pub before going to our location. Staff was not friendly or attentive. We made reservations at The Forge steakhouse. Online they boosted Aka steaks pan seared and grilled to perfection. Their website showed prices around $25 but did add a notice that prices maybe slightly higher due to higher beef cost. Our steaks were $60-$95 and full of fat. We sent one back but the replacement was the same. They also covered the top of the steaks with sweet onion jam and used the gravy from the liver & onions on the potatoes. The staff was friendly. We will not go there again.
We did stop by the American Legion and the lady we encountered there was absolutely wonderful. Although we walked in on a private event, she stopped and took the time to welcome us and directed us to other attractions to visit.
We stayed at the Flying L Ranch Resort. This place is amazing. It’s beautiful country side with everything you need. Swimming pool, golf, restaurant, bar, live music. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. We will be back to Flying L Ranch Resort and give Bandera a second chance.

Bandera is a great little small town.
Bandera is a great little small town. The river float was the highlight of our trip, be sure to do that! There are some cute little shops, a handful of restaurants and of course the 11th street bar. Our only issue we encountered in this "post-covid" time was some places closed early or were unable to open due to lack of staff. I'm sure this is a temporary issue, but it was noticeable.

Bandera TX is a rustic little town steeped in western culture with real Cowboys and ranchers. It is commercialized to a point catering to tourists, hunters and Bikers due to the abundance of wildlife, nightlife and beautiful winding roads. I have been there 5 times for our annual Biker Clubs Winter National party. I will be going back for sure!

Bandera is a wonderful place to visit whether you are cowboy/cowgirl oriented or not. We found it a quiet place to relax in the evening after a great meal at the Cowgirl Coffee Shop next to the hotel.
Amazing scenery, we drove in late at night and there were deer just resting opposite our caravan. Exploring the next day was fun. We stopped on a Monday - due to the rest of our itinerary. I would avoid this as there is so much to do on other days.
The main house was beautifully decorated for Christmas and was just fabulous. Staff were super helpful and friendly.
Bandera is a few mins away and also great to explore
Great place to stay and explore the area. Everyone was really helpful and friendly. They gave us lots of recommendations for places to eat including the best hamburgers in Bandera at a gas station and the OST for breakfast. We also tried the Bandera Brewery on their suggestion which had great live music too. We played putt putt, table tennis and had a really comfortable 2 bed villa. Would definitely recommend.
It was a few minutes drive from Bandera. It was perfect for my husband and I. We were very comfortable, the cabin was we just the right size for a couple. In the evening after spending the day in Bandera and surrounding areas, we came back and sat outside enjoying the outdoors, just listening to nature, saw a few deers on the property and did some star gazing and actually saw two falling stars.
The breakfast was a huge bonus! We have stayed in many hotels, and most breakfast are good, but this breakfast was AMAZING!
The staff were so kind, like my husband said “this is what southern hospitality feels like” and he was right! The lady in charge of breakfast was so attentive, and very welcoming. If we ever come back to Bandera, this is definitely the place I will come back too!
We enjoyed staying in a typical house in Bandera
The property met our expectations and is as described on booking.com. Check in instructions were easy and we had absolutely no issues.
The shared restrooms were clean and had all toiletries. The kitchen had utensils to prepare your meals and a big fridge.
There is a large living room to read and play games. Very good Wi-Fi.
What I liked? The only lady who stayed there as a guest who helped me with contacting the owner!
Otherwise only bad things to mention about this „hotel“: Cockroaches, dusty, no front desk, no phones work to call the owner in case of emergency, no compensation therefor, instead of compensation only rudeness and no understandings for my worst experience in my life.
We were really pleased with our stay at the River Oak Inn as it is a very nice motel with all the basic facilities needed. It is ideally situated for visiting bandera and it is close to 11th Street. The staff is good, very friendly and helpful. Room was clean and I think they recently renovated.
Rooms were clean and the staff was very accommodating, we requested quiet room, late checkout which was taken care of. The bed is very comfortable and seems the motel was renovated recently so the ambience is what we loved the most. Definitely recommended to the travelers visiting Bandera.
The location was great. We were able to walk to almost every place we wanted to go.
The staff was awesome. Very knowledgeable of the area.
The room was very clean and decorated very nice.
When returning to Bandera we will never stay anywhere else.
We love The Vaquero Motel.

A quiet cabin in the rustic Texas Hill Country. Perfect for a weekend getaway. Close to Bandera and Kerrville for the shopping choices they afford, and which we took advantage of. I'd recommend them. The wife and I hope to use Flying L Ranch again.
Tracey at the reception was super nice, the houses are beautiful and decorated with love, the bed was really big and comfortable. Information for the steak night and reservation from the hotel was super. Would allways stay there again.
Beautiful land, nice and isolated yet conveniently located only a few miles away from downtown Bandera. The cabin is really charmingly rustic and the pictures do not do it justice! Would definitely book again.
Great central location, quick walk to the river and downtown area. Great decor/furnishings. Cute little backyard with hammock. I really appreciated having the coffee already there for me :)
Beautiful view of the Hill Country! House is very nice with all the amenities and very close to Bandera for all the festivities of Cowboy Mardi Gras. Owner was very pleasant and helpful.
Loved the cozy motel in Hill Country, The room was clean and staff was very friendly. Will Stay again when I visit Bandera next year during Cowboy Mardi Gras in Feb.
