4 Bedroom House in Canyon Lake, Fischer
The Game Barn | Private Hill Country Retreat | Fischer, Texas - Book Eraly With A Low 1% Deposit
Not your average group rental. The Game Barn is a private, fully fenced Hill Country retreat set on a gated one-acre property near Canyon Lake and Wimberley, Texas, sleeping 10 across four bedrooms with its own entertainment barn, brand new cowboy pool, fire pit, grill shack and a full acre of outdoor space all to yourselves.
This is the place where the group actually stays together. Where phones get put down, kids and adults alike lose track of time, and everyone ends up around the fire pit swapping stories long after they planned to go to bed. Responsive hosting, a spotlessly clean home, and thoughtful touches throughout make this as stress free as a group stay gets.
The Game Barn has welcomed 53 guest reviews with all but one a perfect five stars, and has been awarded Guest Favourite, placing it in the top 10% of listings. It remains one of the Hill Country's most loved group retreats for good reason.
The Home
The home is single-story and thoughtfully laid out for groups, with wide doorways, open living spaces and a fully equipped kitchen with everything you need for group meals including an espresso machine, drip coffee maker, locally roasted beans and dining for up to 10.
We have stocked the Game Barn generously so your group can settle in immediately, even after a long drive. A welcome snack bowl awaits with chips, cookies and a candy selection for everyone. The kitchen comes ready with local coffee beans, creamer singles, sugar and sweetener packets, tea and hot chocolate, along with cooking oil, salt, pepper and a full range of spices and herbs so you can cook a proper meal from the moment you arrive.
Bathrooms are fully stocked with Ginger Lily Farms shampoo, conditioner, shower gel and hand soap, and we provide laundry detergent and dishwasher pods too, so an unexpected spill, a stained shirt, or a mid-stay towel refresh is never a problem. Toilet paper, paper towels and dish soap are all provided as standard. We genuinely believe in arriving to a home that is ready for you, not a checklist of things to buy on the way.
Sleeping arrangements are designed to work for everyone:
- Primary King Suite with en-suite bathroom, porch access and Smart TV
- Two Queen Bedrooms each with Smart TV
- Twin XL Room sleeping up to 4 with daybed and trundle
Fresh linens, towels and essentials are all provided. Pack and Play and high chair available for families.
The Game Barn
Your private all-weather entertainment hub, open to the stars on one side and anchored by a 17ft movie screen on the other. This is where the group gravitates and where the best evenings happen.
- 17ft movie screen and projector
- Pool table
- Axe toss and other yard games
- Basketball game
- Yard games including cornhole, giant Jenga and Yardzee
The Outdoor Space
The outdoor space at Game Barn is designed around one idea: getting everyone together and keeping them there.
The cowboy pool, game barn and grill shack form a natural triangle of entertainment, connected by string lights that drape across the entire area and glow long into the evening.
The fire pit sits at the centre of it all, which means wherever you are, you are part of the same gathering. You can even soak in the cowboy pool and watch a movie on the 17ft barn screen at the same time.
The cowboy pool itself is a genuine highlight. It is heated to a comfortable 82 degrees as standard, included in your stay, with the option to heat further up to 104 degrees or chill it down to as low as 55 degrees for an additional $15 per night, arranged through the guest portal.
Deer and foxes visit the property most evenings, so guests are asked to keep the pool covered when not in use, which helps protect the local wildlife as well as keeping the water clean and the temperature steady.
Guests regularly tell us that what surprised them most was how naturally everyone put their phones down and just enjoyed being together. Before the pool was even added, families were telling us that the outdoor space had given them something they had been missing: time to reconnect and make memories in a setting that made it effortless.
Beyond the triangle:
- Fire pit with Adirondack seating
- Grill shack with charcoal grill and outdoor dining
- Cornhole, giant Jenga, Yardzee and more across a full acre
- Fully fenced and gated for complete privacy
- Flat parking for multiple vehicles at the door
