Floating the Guadalupe River is a laid-back summer tradition. We'll float downstream in a tube at an easy, leisurely pace, spending a few hours relaxing, drinking refreshments, and enjoying the Hill Country scenery. The water is refreshing and the vibe is casual. It's about having fun - no experience needed.

Hideout sits right along a stunning bend in the Guadalupe River — known as the Horseshoe, and one of the most beautiful stretches of river in the area. Our cabins are directly on the floating route! Hideout will shuttle us to the top of the Horseshoe, and we'll float back in tubes for about 1.5–2 hours — ending right back at our cabins. Once we're back, the river is ours, we can continue to hang out by our cabins in the water (swimming, floating, whatever your heart desires)!

Wear your swimsuit! The Guadalupe stays refreshingly cool year-round, typically ranging from the mid-60s to low-70s. Alcohol is permitted on the river — we'll have coolers stocked with drinks and water. The coolers get tied into the tubes (that have a hard bottom). Hideout provides transportation and tubes with hard bottoms. We'll provide the coolers and adult beverages! Don't forget to pack: your Yeti, Stanley, Hydro Flask, coozies, or whatever is cool these days — plus water shoes, a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, a speaker, snacks, and anything else that makes your perfect float day!

Copied from the Texas Government Website: - Glass & Styrofoam: Absolutely no glass or Styrofoam allowed. - Noise: No loud, amplified sound devices audible beyond 50 feet. - Valuables/Keys: Do not take car keys or phones, as they sink.

The ceremony and reception will be held outdoors near the riverside, so light, breathable fabrics and comfortable shoes are key. Sundresses, lightweight dresses, linen shirts, pants or shorts are all great options — and please skip the heels! Suits are not recommended; Texas summers are no joke. Shorts and a polo are absolutely okay. Dress comfortably and don't overthink it! Need some inspiration? Check out The Knot's guide to dressing for a casual wedding — link at the bottom of the page.

Texas BBQ will be served. We'll be on our own for this event. Drinks will be available, but we'll all be our own bartenders! Come ready with your favorite karaoke song. Dress casual—we'll be fresh off the river, so come comfy, relaxed, and ready to party.

That's totally fine! We'll have games set up near the pavilion and you can help yourself to any drinks in the catering kitchen.
