Hey amiguis! Memorial Day weekend is basically the official kickoff to summer — and in San Antonio, that means one thing: time to get on the water. Whether you're into floating, kayaking, paddle boarding, or just chilling riverside with snacks and vibes, I’ve rounded up a few local favorites to help you plan the perfect long weekend.

Mimosas optional, sunscreen required. ☀️

Guadalupe River – For the Float Crew

If your vibe is loud music, cold drinks, and cooler ties, this one’s for you. Bring your crew, rent a tube, and float the day away through Canyon Lake and New Braunfels.

🏡 Hot Spot: Vintage Oaks (New Braunfels) – Hill Country views, luxury homes, and resort-style amenities just minutes from the river.
 Homes typically from the high $500s to $1.5M+

New Listing:
1257 Magnum, New Braunfels, TX 78132



Don’t Want to Float? You Can Still Splash:

Boerne Lake: Great for paddleboarding, quiet vibes, and nature watching

🏡 Hot Spot: Esperanza – Upscale Hill Country community with resort amenities
New Listing:
104 Talavera, Boerne, TX 78006


San Pedro Springs Park Splash Pad: One of the oldest parks in Texas, featuring a historic pool + splash pad combo. Tons of shady trees and picnic spots

🏡 Hot Spot: Tobin Hill – A vibrant, historic neighborhood known for its eclectic mix of early 20th-century homes, trendy eateries, and proximity to downtown.

New Listing:

506 Evergreen, San Antonio, TX 78212

  • Price: 6850,000

  • Details: 3 Beds, 2.5 Bath, 1,190 Sqft

  • Features: Charming bungalow with modern updates, located just minutes from San Pedro Springs Park and The Pearl District.

  • Tour this Tobin Hill Retreat!

Here’s to sunshine, SPF, and making moves that feel like vacation.

If you’re spending the weekend house hunting too — or just casually brunch-and-browsing — I’ve got homes with backyard oasis, riverside access, and patios worth toasting on. Happy Memorial Day Weekend, amiguis!
