Quick trip
Came to town for the memorial service of a family member. This house was just perfect! We had three young ones and six adults. Plenty of room! We hosted time out on the deck around the fire pit one night and the next night had family over for dinner and played games. The weather did not cooperate for a tube float down the river so I guess we have to come back!!

If you are looking for a central location, close to everything, in the heart of New Braunfels this is your place. This house is right on the Comal River with access from your own deck. Golf cart and tubes available upon request - delivered and picked up directly from the house. Spacious deck and hanging lights provide the perfect ambiance for night congregation with family and friends. Propane Fire pit perfect for s’mores. Convenience of refrigerator upstairs and downstairs. BBQ pit available for use. A/C blows cold to keep you cool on these HOT summer days. We enjoyed our stay and would stay again. Host was available and responded quickly throughout the booking process. Looking forward to visiting again.

Location is great but house is subpar
The communication with owner before check in was great. After we checked in we discovered The house had cobwebs along the ceiling. There is a separate bedroom with 2 twins and trundle beds that you access from an outside door. Although there is no bathroom out there so you’d have to enter the main house to use the restroom. There is also no curtain on the window making it difficult to change clothes. The window A/C unit was dripping causing an odor. The house had sticky berries from the trees covering the back porch and driveway. Our family did enjoy the direct access to the river. We spent a lot of time out there. The location is also close to town and restaurants, Muck and Fuss was very good.
