WHAT’S NEARBY
Canyon Lake offers boat and jet ski rentals, as well as beach swimming areas, about seven miles away. Golf at Lakeside Golf Club or The Club at Rebecca Creek. The Guadalupe River is a summer and winter destination with tubing and flyfishing for the angler, just eight miles away. In the small nearby towns, there is plenty of antique shopping to be done, as well as many dining options from quick taco/barbecue shacks to upscale restaurants. Gruene is famous for the Gristmill Restaurant and Gruene Hall, Texas' Oldest Dance Hall. And throughout the year the area also has festivals like Wurstfest and New Braunfels.

We enjoyed our stay and have been taking about coming back again in the future. The only complaint we had was we couldn’t figure out how to turn pool lights on at night and the pool wasn’t clean

Master bedroom bed was cushy. Loved the couches to relax on at night while watching some Netflix. The large kitchen island is amazing for setting up everything food/drink wise and the big dining table was great as well. The views are amazing! Don't forget to walk down the little path near the front door. There's a great spot to sit and has a great view. It was a little cold for the pool but we used it anyway and it has a good deep end (6ft). The house is in a great private area too! Will definitely be back at some point!

We stay here every year. It’s perfect for a relaxing weekend with friends or family. The beds are so comfortable I sleep better than at home! And you seriously can’t beat the view.

Views are incredible. House is on top of mountain with gradual drop offs on three sides. Can see Canyon Lake and hill country for miles. Very private. Pool is good. And two patios are spacious.
House clean and comfortable. House and grounds are older style, but very homey. Kitchen spacious and well equipped. Grill newer and worked great. Pool was a little dirty with pollen dust, when arrived, but Vacasa was very responsive and quick to respond with pool cleaner the next day. We very much enjoyed our 5 day stay. We look forward to returning.

The view did not disappoint. Nice and secluded and the pool area was nice.

House is in serious need of updates but the location/view was great. Not a great choice for children as some of of the needed updates are safety issues. Nails sticking out of floor in entryway and missing kitchen drawers have sharp knives exposed.
5.0
Everything was wonderful. The views are stunning. Our family I very large so finding a place where everyone can sleep comfortable was wonderful. The primary suite was colossal and a perfect retreat for my 87 year old mother in law.
We would recommend providing a first aid kit but if not next time we will bring our own! Thank you for this lovely experience!

Pool was not clean great. Hot tub doesn't work. Beds were completely horrible, rather slept on the couch instead. Some beds didn't have clean sheets on it. I had to wash them before. The floors weren't cleaned/dishes in dishwasher from guest before weren't done. Overall I would never stay here! The communication to host was very slow.

Clean with beautiful views. Great pool and outside areas.

A little outdated. Kitchen was not equipped with a can opener or even one cookie tray/flat pan for using in oven.
Also, upstairs didn’t cool very well.
But overall good.
Thank you.

Million dollar property only because of the fabulous view of Canyon Lake and Dam. House needs some loving repairs and safety fixes.
1. Front door does not lock easily from the inside
2. Kitchen is ill-equipped. Only 6 coffee cups, needs a Keurig coffee maker, no casserole dishes, no ice maker(there but not working), broke front on drawer.
3. Pool and hot tub had algae issue when we got there. Pool service came next day and cleaned it.
4. Entire patio and pool surround is a little precarious when trying to walk around. Stones have shifted and cracked making it unlevel. Kind of unsafe for small children and seniors. Needs to be railed 100% around to prevent falling of ledge on left side.
5. Ceiling fans in some areas need to be replaced or at least service since they do not work.
6. There are so many light switches. They need to be labeled so you know which switch turns on what light or fan.
7. The gas grill needs to be replaced. It was dirty and unusable because both propane tanks were empty.
Even though the house was not up to our usual standards(we have used VRBO for 10+ yrs), we enjoyed our stay because of the view/location.

House needs some maintenance work. Gas grill is unsafe.
The views are beautiful! Nice pool.
4.0
House was beautiful and view amazing. Our first day pool guys came to clean it .. a notice would have been nice plus they shocked it so we left for the day.
Some updates needed and small maintenance..would have been amazing at night if pool lights worked and the side deck/ sidewalk had some sorts of path lights ..they were there just didn't work .
Kitchen great space and plenty room for meals prep etc..
I would also start putting some deer feed out it would be so beautiful to have them at the master br window.
Top room with most beds gets super hott but fans were throughout the house. Overall a great place to relax with your family. Nice pool and plenty room .
4.0
For future guests reserving this property it is great size, beds are comfortable and the nostalgia is combined with modern conveniences like the kitchen, lots of space, plenty of seating inside and out and the views are amazing. Don't expect much communication from the manager or ability to reach them if there is a concern. Personal recommendations are being sent directly to the property's owner.

The house was very spacious and the view was amazing. We enjoyed the pool it was awesome!! Our only complaint was there were no big pots or pans to cook with. We cooked 90% of the meals and felt we didn’t have basic stuff to use. Also the room with the twin beds was very warm even at night. Our family really enjoyed the house!

Enjoyed the place.. attic space for sleeping is weirdly nice. Would have enjoyed a working hot water jacuzzi as the pool was very cold but it was mentioned in the description. Would definitely recommend.

The photos do not do this beautiful home justice! Stunning views and a spacious home. We celebrated a bachelorette party with 7 girls and had plenty of room to add more people if needed. The shower upstairs was having some issues draining but we all used the massive master bathroom with separate shower and tub to get ready when needed. The pool overlooks the lake to one side and the hill county town to the other. The pool was clean and well maintained as well.

The house and view is beautiful. It needs a little updating but still awesome. There was an issue with the cleanliness in one room but as soon as I contacted vacasa they were very prompt about taking care of the situation and gave me a $450 refund. For that I will continue to use them for my vacation rental needs. Very pleased. Thanks vacasa.

Pictures are not accurate
Do not attempt pulling a boat into the driveway. That should be mentioned as you are vacationing on a lake. House had a horrible smell, I believe there was a dead mouse in the laundry room. House is really outdated. One room had no A/C and was listed as sleeping room

Best vacation home
We had a great anniversary/family vacation… The house is very private with an amazing view. Reading the reviews we thought the road to the house would be small and creepy the way it was described but no it wasn’t we saw deers and the view driving to the top was great to see. The house was fully equipped, the pool was perfect for my kids (ages 8 & 9), we enjoyed playing ping pong and monopoly. From all the vacation home we stayed in we will definitely stay in this one again.

Peaceful Getaway
Property was very outdated but spacious and charming. Loved the view from the poolside and the patio. Very peaceful and secluded on one of the highest hilltops overlooking the whole town including the lake. Going up and down the hill in vehicle was a little scary because the road is very narrow but we encountered very few vehicles going back and forth and everyone was cautious.

No words to describe it
There are no words to describe such amazing place with stunning views. We spent 4 days I wish it was more. I d need weeks to describe how great was this choice for me and my family. The house in massive, the place quiet and beautiful at the top of the hill and the views...no words, you have to see it by yourself. Just amazing

Great Views
This place has great views and it was clean. It also had plenty of space for 9 people. However, the beds were extremely uncomfortable that’s why I gave it a 4 instead of a 5.

Absolutely Wonderful!
The view from this home is absolutely stunning! It seem sto be the highest home in Canyon Lake. The home may be a little older, but it is unique and so interesting! There was plenty of room, I slept great in the master bedroom and drinking coffee looking out at this view is totally worth booking this awesome house!

Condition was overall very poor.. for 4 men visiting for the F1 it was just OK however we could not use the hot tub because it was very dangerous with a missing cover on the internal power void casing (we have pictures), the whole patio area surrounding the pool is EXTREMELY dangerous for anyone that is not good on their feet OR children as most of the pointing between each rock is worn meaning most rocks are moving and one of us actually tripped over on one. Kitchen has plenty of work space but is in desperate need of attention as the tiles are coming away from the surface also!. As previous comments stated we did have a musty smell and it wasn’t not pleasant at all. Zero internet with the router flashing red for the entire stay, tried powering off and on to reset but nothing.. this meant no TV also. Overall very disappointed, the pictures listed hide many failures of this property. Good point is the view, spectacular but that’s it.
If you are thinking of hiring this place with children then I would seriously think again..

Wonderful property
This property is amazing! The home was clean and smelled fresh (whatever odor issues were there from previous reviews are now gone) and all of the beds were very comfortable. The home has brand new ovens and a new sink as well. The pool was crystal clear and the views are just amazing. You definitely feel like you are in your own little universe at this property.

Not worth it.
The laundry room had the most horrendous fowl stench, we had to go out and buy a candle and lysol and open the window and still then the smell never subsided. The cushions on the couch are in poor condition & constantly feel as if they are slipping off. The upstairs room with the 3 beds had a poor mattress, uncomfortable feeling. Along with the chair collapsing we had to repair 2 other chairs due to the support beam between them was broken & the table looked as if it was ready to break. Tha pool was nice but not enough lighting once it gets dadk. For the amount of money we spent on this it was a poor experience. Not worth it.

Review
House and view were absolutely amazing! Only reason for 4 Stars was there was a pretty awful smell coming from the laundry room. Progressively got worse during our stay. Contacted management and did not receive any type of concern of what it was or the discomfort it was causing us. I’m sure they have fixed the smell, would rent again because the view was just that good!

Great Location, Great Amenities
Although a bit of a challenge to reach initially this was a great property with superb overlook. Furnishings and accommodations for party of 10 (adults & children) could not have been better. Swimming pool a plus. Plenty of parking.
