Great place to stay for our large family. Beautiful view of the river and the weather cooperated so we could go kayaking! Bobby is a wonderful, helpful host. Hope to stay here again.
We had the best stay! The house was clean and comfortable and stocked well. River was right in the back yard. The host was helpful and kind. We will definitely be back!
Serene, beautiful views, and the perfect location for a peaceful stay!!
Loved the host, location, wildlife, lightning bugs, and amenities!! Home is perfect for four couples, with all you need for your stay! I packed the least I ever have for our annual trip, and never wanted for anything! Highly recommend this home…Bobby was the best!!
Beautiful property, great location, and wonderful host. Went above and beyond all my expectations. We will most definitely be back as soon as possible!!
We had a great time, great river access. House is close to most activities. The owner was very nice and helpful. The house is very comfortable. Look forward to coming back in the future.
Property was clean and well appointed. Great home base for some wedding weekend parties in Gruene. Looking forward to coming back in summer when we can enjoy the river and water sports.
We thoroughly enjoy ourselves at Bobby's home. There is always something to entertain yourself with be it swimming, kayaking, sitting on the dock nature wstching, or a short drive into historic Gruene. So happy to find a property that makes us want to retutn to Grurne/ NBTX more often. Bobby lives nearby and is just a text messsge away if anything is needed. Hoghly recommend!
Loved our stay at Bobby's house. House is spacious, clean, and was a great spot for our multigenerational family weekend. We enjoyed the outdoors on the deck, in the large yard, and in the great spot on the river! We really liked that the river isn't a heavily trafficked section of the Guadalupe. We made use of all the kayaks and water gear the house provides and had a great time even when the weather didn't cooperate. Bobby was always kind and helpful if and when we needed him and we will definitely stay here again.
My extended family and I had a great time staying at this beautiful property. It was very clean, roomy and had great views of the river and wildlife. We enjoyed cooling off in the water and sitting out on the spacious deck watching the deer! The owner is very nice and responsive! Highly recommend!
The rental was more than we hoped for. Plenty of room for 8 people (4 couples). Close to everything we did. Best part was the large deck for evening drinks watching the deer Will make this an annual stay.
We had an amazing stay! The house was clean and spacious. Bobby was wonderful and easy to communicate with. We enjoyed amazing views on the river, floating by the dock, kayaking and feeding the deer. We will be back!
