About this house rental

A picturesque waterfall runs across this quiet stretch of the Guadalupe River, creating a perfect place for wading on one side, and for exploring or just putting our lawn chairs in the river and relaxing on the other side. The location is perfect for using our kayak, and you can tube right out our back door. A favorite pastime is watching the river go by from the three-tiered, large riverside flagstone patio. It is also a wildlife magnet, with osprey and heron fishing here. Oh, and so do the fly fishermen, as this trophy section of the river is stocked with trout from November through February directly across the river. All of this can be enjoyed from the brand-new sunroom and deck outside of this charming, well-appointed, and recently remodeled house with all of the creature comforts. The many activities of Canyon Lake, Gruene, and New Braunfels are also just a short drive away.

Tubing, Kayaking, and Fishing: Tubing: This is a great section of the river to launch your tubing trip. No need to rent a tube, just drive up river and float down to the house or toob the horseshoe, which is just a couple of miles from the house (see our guide in the house for more information)....Kayaking: The river is usually at a level such that paddling upstream is quite easy, even for the kids. Then you can float back effortlessly toward the house. We provide a two person kayak with paddles and life jackets....Fishing: Fishing is a popular pastime on the Guadalupe, and the waterfall in our backyard is a popular spot for fish and anglers alike. Both the Texas Parks and Wildlife and Guadalupe River Trout Unlimited stock the river with trout between November and February, and the fish thrive in the cool waters of the Guadalupe, which was recently voted one of the top 100 trout streams in the US.

This property has a permit from the Comal County Water Oriented Recreation District (Permit # L1252).

This was our first river trip and we could not have picked a better place to stay. It was beautiful. I have had several people message me on the side for the link because they loved the pics of the home I posted online. The manager always replies quickly and we had no issues with our stay. We hopefully plan to come back and stay in same house

We couldn't have found a more perfect house for our family. Well appointed, very clean, everything you could ask for & did I mention it is on a beautiful river? Dream come true rental experience, complete with a gracious host, kayaks & fire pit. Who could ask for more? All the stars possible, this is a great house!!

What a great place! The porch, sunroom, and layout of the house was great. There were 5 of us and we had plenty of room. Fun time fishing and floating the river with the kayaks! Just remember… you have to bring the kayaks back up the hill! Love this place and hope to stay again!

My husband and I came down from Waco to celebrate a friend’s birthday (they have a house on the same street). Beautiful views, nice neighborhood, and close to all the fun places. Would love to come back!
