My wife and I celebrated our anniversary here and it was an amazing experience. The resort is right on the San Marcos River, a prime spot to float and enjoy the water. The pool is awesome and the bar is full service. The service from the staff as well as Max and Mel was phenomenal and second to none. The cabin was nice and had every amenity imaginable. While speaking with Max, the future plans of the resort made us excited to return in the future. We for sure will be coming back!

Melrose River Club is such a fun and relaxing spot right on the San Marcos River. The river is just steps away, so it’s super easy to float, swim, or just sit by the water. The pool area is a highlight. Big, lively, and perfect for hanging out with friends, plus there’s a bar right there. We stayed in one of the container casitas and loved it. It was cute, clean, and cozy, with a cool outdoor shower that made it feel like a little glamping adventure. We will definitely book again.

Spotless. The bed quality was amazing, the split AC unit was so great. The water Pressure was amazing. Parking right outside the unit. I noticed that the unit had an outdoor shower, which would be great if you use the pool, or access to the river. I know this is a new facility so check it out.

Property is beautiful, pool was great, casitas were cozy. We had a lovely time and will definitely return. We had a few hiccups but staff was accommodating and very prompt with fixing the issues. The first hiccup was the breaker blew, they were very prompt in coming out and flipping that for us. The other hiccup was we wanted a refresh for our casita but it was forgotten but the staff came over at 8 pm and brought us towels and chocolates, this was very nice of them. The overall vibe was excellent. Very friendly staff. I would highly recommend staying here.

We enjoyed our stay at the Melrose. Such a fun and unique property. We enjoyed the bar area by the pool. All staff we encountered were very friendly and helpful. The tiny home was cute, clean, and practical. The bed was comfortable but the pillows were so thick they hurt my neck. We found that the living room gets very cold but not the bedroom. Overall great stay!

This property was perfect!! The people were extremely kind! My husband and I stayed in the smallest container they had and it was just right for what we needed. I do wish there had been a chair for sitting and drinking coffee or even just to put your shoes on. Haha! Next time we will get a bigger place! I truly like that there were people on site in case you needed anything. The owner Max has really made this property one that you will go back to!!

It may be tight for two but it was super cute and well designed. I didn't get a chance to enjoy the pool or river but it looks like a great place to enjoy the sun and water.
