Wonderful Weekend
We stayed at this property for girls' weekend and absolutely loved it. The house was exceptionally clean and there was a nice little welcome gift when we arrived. The backyard is fantastic for hanging out near the firepit and the house is conveniently located to downtown New Braunfels. We would all highly recommend staying here!

Home away from home
The host was extremely helpful and easy to communicate with. This was the perfect place for my family and I, it was clean and felt so cozy. The ac was amazing in July! That was a major bonus! I especially enjoyed the backyard and look forward to visiting again in the cooler months so that we can enjoy the campsite seating area.

Great location and set up for families
We booked this last minute. The location was perfect! Close to the park and anything you would want to drive to. Plenty of beds for a family, a large yard for kids. The cowboy pool was perfect for them also. Fully stocked kitchen and bath/laundry amenities. Will absolutely stay again if in the area.

Perfect times 3! Great house, great location, great backyard!
The house was everything you see as advertised. The homeowner quickly provided suggestions for our activity interests. We walked to shopping & dinner places every evening. Even walked to the tube rental company. Got in the vehicle 1-day because of the rain!!! The backyard firepit was a large hit.

Great place to stay by river and downtown!
Warm cottage feeling home with nice backyard! We grilled out one night and ate mostly at the amazing restaurants downtown. The kitchen was well equipped and provided drip coffee! The ice maker was a plus and the dining table was very comfortable for our family of 5. We enjoyed crashing in the living room with nothing on while reading or playing board games. The kiddos enjoyed having their own TV in the bedroom. I wish the master bed TV was hung on the wall because it was hard to view while in bed. The neighborhood was very chill for most of the time but we did hear infrequent daytime industrial noise. It wasn’t a problem for us because our kids were louder. :) The backyard is just precious!! Plenty of chair seating around a fire with a picnic table under the coverage area. All in all it was basically the same price as a suite in a nice hotel. The house was something we would consider upon a second visit to New Braunfels!
