Beautiful place on the river

This property is beautiful on a large river front lot! Communication w rental company was very efficient and fast. Plenty of room for our large deck. The only negative is the place really does need more restrooms w showers. The owners did recently build an outside casita which is essentially a large bathroom that is nice. House comes equipped with everything.

Beautiful property

The property and location were fantastic. The kayaks were included and the outdoor space was exactly what we were looking for! The kid only room is perfect, but does have outdoor access so little kids cannot stay. We noticed the first night that some items weren’t working or were broken and the maintenance came and fixed quickly. The house is older and could use some fixing up. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were 12 adults from 21 to 83. The many levels were hard for the two oldest to navigate but that has to be expected on hillside property. The kitchen is better equipped than mine at home! Beautiful weather allowed us to use the large porches to relax and visit. Cable TV allowed us to watch the Astro clench the playoffs!!

Fantastic!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our group has been coming to the Guadalupe River for almost 20 years and only a few years ago did we come across this little gem. It is always clean, more than enough room for our crew that ranges anywhere from 16-20+ adults, it has great access to the river where we can either float the river to the house, or from the house with drop off and pick up help from Little Ponderosa - or simply sit your booty in the water right in the back! We couldn't ask for better location or accommodations and we will continue to come back to Players Place year after year

Girlfriend getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is very roomy and we loved how it sat right on the river. New Braunfels Escapes were fabulous to work with. The game room was pretty hot when we got there but cooled off over night. The house could use some fans in every room for the hot Texas summers. This rental would be even better if the owner fixed her up a bit but over all we loved our stay. Little Ponderous Outfitters is a great outfitter for your floating needs and is right down the road from the house. We would stay here again for sure.

Our Home Away From Home

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love staying at Player's Place. This is now our 3rd summer in a row to stay here for our "adults only" trip, and we love it. Plan to stay for years to come. We did notice some small, and some not-so-small improvements since last summer and appreciate it! The one suggestion we have is to update a few of the mattresses (ex: the two rooms at the back (river side) of the upstairs), and to make them all Queen size or larger. Upgrading the full size bed to a Queen or King makes a huge comfort difference for 2 adults. Other than that, we love it!

DISGUSTING

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Dirty, dirty, dirty. Rodent poop everywhere! Beds in the garage...really??? Dusty, old bed linens, place needs a major makeover. The most expensive 11 hours of my life. I could've stayed at the Four Seasons and it would've been a **** of a lot cleaner. Total rip off!! Don't do it!!!

Great location

Rating Details: The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location is really nice, offering natural stone-like "steps" to access the river; however, they are not very even, so you must exercise caution. Small children were carried down. The river was shallow and we could place our chairs in this area. And of course the river deepened into the center where we fly fished or floated! Ponderosa tubing was .5 mile down the road...very convenient! Quick notes: The grill was new and perfect for our meals! They had two propane tanks, one completely full. Two refrigerators made life easier! The ice maker was not producing much ice. Both a a regular coffee maker and a keurig were available. The upgraded the dining table easily accommodated 12 adults. The master has an attached bathroom, only pictured in the video, not in the still photos. Overall the home suited us well, 12 adults and 3 toddlers/babies. We would rent again! Thank you!

We enjoyed our stay and the location on the river was ideal. Checkin and check out process was super easy but the property had a few disappointing issues like a tree blocking easy access to the river and broken outdoor furniture and a broken dishwasher bottom rack. The living room furniture needs updating and the space is not big enough for the size of the sleeping accommodations of this house.

Great Location But Quality Not Worth Price

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location of this home is fantastic, as you’re right on the river. That said, the interior of the home is not nearly worth the price. The dishwasher is broken, and there’s no hot water going to the kitchen sink (the kitchen faucet is loose so you can’t rotate the handle all the way to hot and get it to stay there), plus several of the dining chairs were broken upon arrival. The springs in the living room couches are completely worn out so sitting on the couches is extremely uncomfortable. The bathroom situation is untenable if you have ten people staying there like we did (hence the need for a 5 bedroom home), as you’ll be fighting for showers after a day on the river. The master bedroom is the only bedroom with an en-suite bathroom but that room only has a queen bed (oddly, another bedroom in the house has the only king bed in the home). All in all, it’s not what I expected for the price we paid. You’re literally only paying for the location, so just know that going in.

The Graduate's Great Escape

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The best location, property, and amenities. My family flew across the country to attend my graduation, and we had such an amazing time. The check-in and check-out procedures were stress-free. We enjoyed the quiet and fell in love with the tattoo shop about 2 miles down the road. Tony was the best, and we all left with amazing art from him. Back to the house, she gave all the feels. We enjoyed playing cards and eating family meals together at the massive table. The kids rarely left the back room with the bunkbeds, they loved their space. The lights on the cabana by the river were a classy touch and made for a spring night by the river. We were planning our next trip before we even left.

Great group vacation home!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is my second time renting this home and I love it even more! The house is clean and very spacious. They have upgraded to a huge dining room table with more seats. The main stars are the wrap around porch and the backyard. Direct river access is everything and this location is perfect. Kitchen has plenty of items, just lacking the basic seasonings. Overall, we enjoy bringing our big group to this property. My only suggestion is upgraded couches, maybe a sectional. The current option can seat maybe 5 people.
