About this property
Gone Fishin' Cabin at Lightning Bug Springs
Sleeps 6- 2 bedrooms, 1 bath; 2 Queens and 1 Bunkbed
If you're looking to escape the hustle and bustle of big city Gone Fishin' at Lightning Bug Springs is the perfect destination; 15 acres of beautiful property nestled along the banks of the Dry Frio. Don't let the name "Dry" fool you, though. There is a quaint swimming hole just steps away. The property offers a swimming pool, a large fire pit, volleyball net, outdoor pavilion, tire swings, horse shoes, soccer goals and large shade trees for enjoying nature. In the evening watch the sun set while the deer graze in the field.
Gone Fishin' offers 2 bedrooms; 2 Doubles & 1 Bunkbed, Sleeps 6. It has a kitchen and living room. The kitchen has a refrigerator, stove, microwave and regular coffee pot.
It has a living room with two couches and a TV w/ satellite. Gone Fishin' has a cozy front porch for sittin', a grill & a fire ring.
We want our guest to enjoy their stay worry-free so we provide bed linens and towels which is a rarity in Concan.
Gone Fishin' is far enough from the noise of the main river to experience a peaceful retreat, but just 8 miles from Concan and its quaint restaurants, quirky shops or to float the Frio river.
**The Gone Fishin' cabin is part of a retreat called Lightning Bug Springs. Other lodging on our property is The Lodge, The Lone Star and the Rio Vista. We also rent out the entire property for family reunions, large gatherings or large vacations. The entire retreat sleeps 46.

About the host
Hosted by Dena Krailo
Hi, we are Mike & Dena Krailo
Lightning Bug Springs holds a very special place in our hearts as we watched our children grow up here, splashing in the river, dancing the night away under the pavilion or playing games with all of their friends in the bunkhouse. Our children are grown but the memories last forever.
When we were given the opportunity to manage Lightning Bug we were beyond excited. We want to watch other families make memories here too.
We hope you love Lightning Bug Springs as much as we do and will continue to come back year after year.
