The listing was accurate to the experience. The house was clean when we arrived and fully ready for guests. The location is SO quiet and peaceful, but it's only 15 minutes from the heart of New Braunfels. I 100% recommend and even ended up extending my stay. ##### James K.

Kids had a great time playing basketball during our down time. Perfect place to stay if you want to be away from everything but still close enough that it’s no more than a 10-15 min drive.

Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### James K. 13 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Location I'm pretty sure I submitted a review for my stay already, but VRBO keeps prompting me to do so again. So if this shows 2 reviews, that is why. In either case, our stay was phenomenal. The house was charming and felt like and isolated farmhouse, but was only 15 minutes from downtown New Braunfels. The owner and property manager were so kind and easy to work with. We loved every bit about our stay. If we need to stay in New Braunfels again, this will be the first placed we look. ##### James K.
