On-site Activities

Bring your own gear and walk down to our private river frontage to throw a line in!  If you are 17 years old or older, you must have a fishing license, which may be purchased locally and nearby.  This is a trophy fishing area, so all is catch and release. Our guests love to fish on the Upper Guadalupe.

You can literally float all day and relax on the river right by our river trail at the Tipis on the Guadalupe.  We offer a “happy hour” float from the Tipi riverfront down to our other location at River Road Escapes.  This float is short but relaxing and you can do it over and over again!  Or book with one of our favorite Outfitters where they will shuttle you, provide tubes and drop you at the best stretches of the river for maximum enjoyment of our beloved river.

Rent our kayaks on a daily basis for a fun adventure!  Put in at the River Road Escapes and paddle up river as far as you want then enjoy a relaxing float back down river.  You’ll see turtles, fish, cranes, dragonflies and…not a lot of people!  We rent single kayaks and tandem boats. 
All rentals are first come, first serve! No shuttling provided.

Our guests will see many native birds swooping through the trees at the Tipis!  Cardinals will fly over and chirp hello to you or cranes will dive into the river right in front of you!  The ducks give the Tipis on the Guadalupe 10/10!

Have you heard of the benefits of “grounding”?  Take your shoes and socks off and walk down our Path of Positivity to the river and splash your feet!  It’s only about a 100 yard walk, but so worth the energy to check out the view, breath the fresh air and delight in the nature around you!

Bring your coffee or your afternoon cocktail down to the river, sit on our swing and splash your feet in the cool, healing waters of the Guadalupe river.  Reconnect with the Divine, pray, laugh, visit, connect with your loved ones at our beautiful riverfront deck.

We offer ping-pong, cornhole, tetherball, volleyball and a huge grassy area where you can play frisbee, catch or fly a kite!  Bring your own games for even more fun.  The kids and “kids at heart” love to play and enjoy the outdoors together at the Tipis.
