Solomon's Den, and four other cabins are located on 6 acres between Vanderpool and Leakey on RR 337, one of Texas' most scenic highways. This area is known for it's two lane country roads that meander between steep sided canyons. It has been referred to as the "Swiss Alps of Texas" and is popular with motorcyclists and bicyclists. The cabin is located on a county maintained road, The Lower Sabinal River Road, right off of 337. It is a perfect road for taking a leisurely walk and enjoying the beautiful mountain scenery and possible wildlife viewing.
Guest robes are provided for use during your stay.
There is a camp fire ring available that can be used when the area is not under a county burn ban. Firewood for the outdoor fire pit can be purchased from the Lost Maples Country Store, 4 miles up the road. Also available on the grounds is a BBQ grill (bring your own charcoal), picnic table, outdoor chairs and a hammock.
Solomon's Den is conveniently located to Lost Maples State Natural Area, Garner State Park, the Frio River, as well as the cities of Vanderpool, Utopia, Leakey, Bandera and Kerrville.
Lost Maples State Natural Area is about 7 miles from the cabin. Garner State Park is about 18 miles, while Leakey is about 10 miles. There are many places to begin a floating trip along the Frio River, all of which would be within 45 miles of the cabin, some closer than others. For more information please visit the various web sites for that area.
Utopia is a small town where you will find a few shops, restaurants and a 9 hole golf course. The movie, "Seven Days in Utopia" was filmed there. It is about 15 miles from the cabin.
Bandera is known as the Cowboy Capital of the World and offers various rodeos and "cowboy activities" throughout the year, as well as shopping, restaurants and bars. It is about 45 miles from the cabin.
Kerrville is a little over 45 miles from the cabin and is the nearest city where you will find an HEB, Wal-Mart, Specs etc.
The cabin is located on the second story of a two story building, although it is still very private as the area below is not a rental space and only used for storage. Being on the second story affords excellent views of the mountains.
Once you make a reservation you will be provided with specific directions, check-in instructions and a list of things to do in the area. Some of the most popular attractions include The Laurel Tree Guest Table Restaurant and Tree House Dining Room, Mac and Ernie's Roadside Eatery which has been featured on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives and Bizarre Foods as well as several other publications, floating the Frio River, hiking at Lost Maples State Natural Area and Garner State Park, rodeos in Bandera and much more.
You'll enjoy bird watching, star gazing, wildlife viewing and many more nature centered activities that provide for a refreshing, relaxing vacation.
If you're looking for a true romantic escape without hindrances, Solomon's Den offers an "unplugged" experience with no cell service, or satellite TV. We do provide a video library in the cabin with some oldies but goodies, and you are welcome to download a movie and use the 43" smart TV to view it. AT&T and T Mobile do provide service in the area but it is spotty due to the mountains. The closest cell service is about 4 miles up the road in Vanderpool. FAST, RELIABLE AND SECURE INTERNET IS AVAILABLE AT EACH CABIN. Now you'll have more choices as to how you want to "unplug". Due to the stairs inside and outside of the cabin, and the recessed bathtub, you may want to consider another one of our cozy cabins if you have difficulty performing these activities.
