Where to Stay in and Around Boerne

Boerne (pronounced “Bernie”) is one of the prettiest small towns in the Hill Country: a walkable Main Street, German food and BBQ, the Cibolo Nature Center and Cascade Caverns. Most visitors start by searching for hotels in Boerne, and there are plenty of in-town rooms, especially for a night on Main Street.

If you want more than a room — space, quiet, a pool, room for the dog, or a place to park your RV — look just outside town. Al's Hideaway is a family-run property of 13 handcrafted log cabins, 10 full-hookup RV sites and 9 cowboy campsites on 20 acres in Pipe Creek, 15 minutes from Boerne's Main Street. We are not a hotel; we are what many guests choose instead of one.

Hot Meals, Specialty Coffee & Clean Energy Drinks On Site

Boerne's Main Street is full of good food, but you do not need to hunt for dinner or coffee once you are back at the property. Our on-site store serves hot meals, and the Al's Hideaway Energy & Drink Bar is now open, making specialty coffee, espresso drinks and cold brew, plus clean energy drinks made with premium Monin flavors and sugar-free options. You can eat, sip and stock up without getting back in the car.

Why drive for morning coffee and breakfast when it is already here? Take a short walk to the store and listen to the birds along the way.

Then unplug. After a day of exploring there is no traffic to sit in, no car horns and no sirens — just the creeks, the pool, the quiet, and a sky full of stars. It is a place to actually relax and recharge.
