The home was well appointed, good floor plan with two master bedroom suites with river views, excellent outside patio area and the views were spectacular. We had a wonderful experience and 3 couples did not feel cramped. We enjoyed watching red hawks and bard owls across the river. We’ve already booked again for the fall. We thought mattress toppers would make the beds more comfortable and the bathrooms need grab bars in tub/showers because the soft water makes the surfaces slippery.

We had a group of 8 people and two dogs and it fit us all perfectly! Views from the master suites was phenomenal. Living room area/kitchen all open access and the views were unobstructed to the Guadalupe. We really enjoyed the fire pit down by the river with a big, beautiful tree overhead.The kayaks were a plus… super fun!There was even a hogwash in the laundry room.Overall, we had a perfect, peaceful weekend getaway from the hustle and bustle. Thank you for sharing your home with us! We would definitely return, especially when you get that bottom finished Loved it!!

A River sanctuary

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 booked this trip to meet family and friends near Canyon lake with our boat. The river was a huge hit and we all spent more time there than at Canyon Lake! The house was wonderfully provisioned and very nice. All of the rooms and bathrooms are superb and the decks got a lot of use by us. What a great little gem, we will be back again! Thank you.

Perfect Riverfront Luxury

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 didn’t want to leave this beautiful, brand new home just steps away from the Guadalupe River! From the comfortable beds and furnishings to the well equipped kitchen, everything was perfect. The outdoor space offered a cozy deck with lots of seating, a fire pit and even kayaks. You can spend the day playing in the river or it’s close enough to explore nearby attractions in Wimbereley, New Braunfels or San Marcos. Honestly, we can’t say enough good things about our stay. We will definitely be back!

Great House on the River

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 stayed here for four days with 9 people and never felt crowded. The house has a great layout with plenty of space inside and out to hangout. The outside deck areas are great for relaxing and listening to the birds and river. The kitchen has more than enough glassware and anything you would need to cook. The river is right out back with a nice spot to hangout. You can walk upstream and float down past the house and walk back. Gruene is a short drive away and fun to visit. We had pizza from wicked good pizza and would recommend. Wildflour bakery is a spot we always stop at while here. We have tried alot there and everything has been great. They have the best waffles! We have stayed at plenty other houses all along the river and this is our favorite one yet. We will be coming back!!

Gorgeous/clean 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 had a wonderful time in this home. It was clean, open and on a nice part of the river. The kids had a blast as there were shallow parts of the river in front of the home and deeper parts not far away. Enjoyed having the kayaks available even if we didn't really use them. The incline down to the water was a little steep so just be aware if you have older folks joining you. 4 of the twin beds are in the living room (2 daybeds with trundles) so just know that people will be sleeping in a public space if you need those beds. Bring your own kitchen/hand towels (none provided) so we used lots of paper towels but not a big deal. I would LOVE to know if the downstairs area will be finished out by next year so we could bring more family!!

2/10 Terrible

Disliked: Communication, location, listing accuracy
We made a point to contact management before check-in to confirm the condition of the property and were told there were no issues that would affect our stay. That turned out to be misleading and not true. When we arrived, the entire lower level of the home was under construction and completely unusable. This was never disclosed. The listing advertised the “entire home,” which creates a clear expectation—one that was not met. After raising the concern, management claimed that area was “not included,” but that is not how the property was presented.This had a direct impact on our stay. There was no functional access to the backyard or river—one of the primary reasons we booked. With no back stairs, the only way to reach the outdoor area was to exit through the front and walk all the way around, which is not reasonable for a property marketed this way.After our stay, we requested a small partial refund due to the misrepresentation and loss of use. That request was denied, with management maintaining that the space was never included or pictured. That response ignores the broader issue: the listing created a materially inaccurate and deceptive impression of the property.Additionally, the street is dominated by short-term rentals, and EVERY NIGHT there was persistent late-night noise and loud music during our stay--this is not a quiet or relaxing environment.Taken together—undisclosed construction, lack of access to key features, and noise—the experience was awful!

Our family thoroughly enjoyed ourselves while staying at this house. It is the perfect location, beautiful setting and views, and large enough for our big family to spread out and have their own space. The kitchen is fully equipped and user friendly!!! We had such a good time using the kayaks, playing games, doing puzzles, and sitting by the river listening to music. Thank you for sharing your home!
