We had a large family gathering, the deck on the back of the house was nice, as well as the area down by the river. The house was in fair condition, most everyone complained about the beds. I had to fix one of the bed frames because the leg was missing, and it was unbearable to sleep on. There were cockroaches in the kitchen cabinets and several on the floor and the floor wasn't clean. There were plenty of towels but could have more blankets available. If this house was updated with beds and more setting in the living room, I would give it a higher rating.

Great communication with the property management! The house needs to be updated. There were missing knobs in kitchen. Most small appliances didn’t have all its parts. Ceiling fan in upstairs was very loud. Lights were out in some of the other ceiling fans. Bathroom floor upstairs has a soft spot that feels like you will go through the floor.
1.0 / 5.0
The location of the property is in a convenient, being close to town but the property and home is very unkept and dirty. The pictures on the listing is nothing like the home itself. Most of the doors do not open more than halfway, the beds are very uncomfortable and the house itself appeared to not have been cleaned. The river access is okay if you plan on sitting on the patio but not if you have children who want to play in the water.

The house was just perfect! We have been having our annual getaway for 6 years, and this was the best house we have stayed at! Plenty of room for 13 women and their belongings! Lots of kitchen items for cooking! Great river access that allowed us to just sit in chairs in the water the whole time! Definitely will be booking this house again next year!

Reviewer Comments:
Nice home in a great location with easy access to the river. A bit of wear and tear and some maintenance issues prevent me from giving it a 5-star review. However, it is still a suitable property if you know what to expect. Accepting dogs is a huge plus! A/C needed to be more balanced in the home as keeping the kitchen and living room cool was impossible sometimes. The dishwasher did not work, and there is a significant trip and injury hazard where the living room meets the added-on rec space as the flooring transition strip was completely unsecured.
5.0 / 5.0
Amazing location right on the river! Really enjoyed that we could just walk out the house and right down to the river to hang out. Also loved that the kids could tube down the river and exit right in the backyard. House was very clean and looked recently updated. Was very surprised by how well stocked the house was. I have gotten used to taking all of my own cooking utensils and pots/pans when staying at rental properties because it can be really hit or miss with what the house has, but this house had EVERYTHING! Overall everyone in our group loved this house and we are already anticipating our stay here next year!

The location is AMAZING! If you are looking for a place to arrive to & keep your vehicle parked the whole time, THIS is the one!Access to the river is right down the hill in the back yard as shown & described. It’s perfect to put your chairs in with good rocks for plenty of chairs to sit on. We had at least 8 of us in chairs, spread out down there. The hill back up is a doozy, unless you’re in shape LOL.The tube rental place is a short 1 min walk. Rio provides the black, old school tubes. With or without bottoms. They will cut out bottoms if you don’t want one so be sure to just ask. Driveway seems super sketchy right when you get there, but we had no issues & didn’t feel that River Road traffic was an issue at all. However, we were there for a good time & likely didn’t pay attention. Would def recommend & stay again.

We enjoyed our stay. This property is really beautiful and the house is nice. We stayed at the end of the season. There were a few things that needed to be fixed in the restroom that I chalk up to our timing. The house is really nice and the area is good and not too busy. The communication with the owner was fabulous and timely. I recommend a stay here and I appreciate the openness of the owner to add an extra day at the last minute.

We had a wonderful long weekend here. River access and the patio were perfect. Afternoon shade was wonderful. There were 6 adults and 8 kids and the space was enough. Home was clean and in good shape. Staff was attentive via email. Only complaint was one of the full beds in the 3rd bedroom was sagging/broken. Not sure if it was the mattress or the frame, but no one can sleep comfortably in this bed.

Backyard is the best part
House is okay, there was roaches and the first floor room was freezing cold while the rest of house was warm. The backyard (river) was the best part. You have to share the backyard concrete patio with the neighbors, which they do not mention until your reserve. Hallway in home is narrow and is not suitable for bigger people. We would not rent this house again.

5.0 / 5.0
We very much enjoyed our visit!
I'll start by saying our vacation here was great! I didn't receive my check in instructions right away but NBE worked with me to resolve quickly. There was one issue with two TVs requiring a PIN that we nor NBE could figure out, and they issued a partial refund without me asking nor expecting.
There is plenty of room, the beds are comfortable but mattresses on a couple of the beds "dip" in the center and likely should be replaced soon. We slept really well regardless! The property was clean, instructions were comprehensive and easy to follow. The garage door control is INSIDE the house when entering from the garage and I never thought to look there so it took a hot minute to find it. It can also be opened and closed from a keypad outside the garage.
We've stayed in rentals that were better appointed than River Haus, but also some that were worse. This rental is a great riverfront location for getting into and out of the water. It sits right at a high traffic area, right next to the bridge where there is a lot of traffic, across the street from a tube rental and next to a tube launch, so if we had stayed during high season, we likely would have not had as good a time.
There were plenty of towels, dish soap, dishwasher soap, kitchen rags and towels, and pot holders. I do have some suggestions that may improve the stay for future guests. There were only 5 dinner forks, but a ton of spoons, butter knives and desert size forks, and only 1 spatula for cooking (not counting 2 decorative - flower shaped - ones that weren't very functional). There were also only 5 steak knives (we tend to cook a lot when we rent) and I always think it's good to have a really good kitchen knife, which there was one.
Although we realize it's not required, most rentals we've stayed in have had at least some spices, salt and pepper, etc, that were either provided by the host or left behind by previous renters. I had planned to buy food at the market but it didn't occur to me there wouldn't be even salt and pepper, so we had to go out the next day to the market again. We left the salt and pepper there for future guests :-)
We give this property high marks overall, especially to the management company who were very responsive to any message or email I sent. We had a great time and the few things we thought could have been better were not critical things. We had a very relaxing stay, visited Canyon Lake dam and area, and it was a great rental experience.

Overall a great place to stay. The house was RIGHT on the road so believe them when they say there is no extra parking and be watchful of your little kids. One wrong step and they are in the road. The house was very clean, however the kitchen cabinets were missing some knobs and the house was older than most. The furniture was in great condition. A cold front came three while we were there and heater seemed to only heat the master bedroom while the rest of the house was freezing. There was direct river access and the area to sit down by the river was nice. Again, it was super clean and that’s the main thing I’m looking for in a rental.
