Hi, I’m Katie, owner of Calm Water Rentals and the woman behind the details that make your stay feel comfortable & memorable. I’ve always believed the smallest things make the biggest difference, from a clean, cozy space and having everything you need to relax to actually enjoy your vacation. Our properties are tucked into one of my favorite places in Texas Hill Country, near the river, where days are meant for slowing down to go tubing, fishing, sitting by a firepit, or just being together.
