Throughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you so much

We had a wonderful stay at this property. The house was rustic, yet clean and well equipped. The fire pit and spacious grounds were awesome. We all enjoyed watching deer on the property in the mornings and evenings. The property was a great launchpad for all of the local attractions. I would highly recommend this property!

Me and my friends and family had an amazing Time here. We plan on coming back , I trip was amazing Dustin and Allison were too. The house was amazing and super big thanks for letting us stay see y’all soon.

My daughter was graduating from TXST and we had grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins in from out of town. River retreat was absolutely awesome. There was enough room for all family and we were able to grill out for the celebration instead of trying to make reservations for 10-12 people. We played corn hike, ladder ball and watched deer from the back yard area. Even my 80 year old mom - who had never used itrip- said it was perfect. I HIGHLY recommend this property!

Our entire family stayed here this past weekend for my brother's wedding in Gruene. The house was able to accommodate all of us comfortably and it was conveniently located as well. The stay was overall great; the only "negative" piece of feedback is that it was cold outside and even though we had the heater on inside some of the rooms were still very chilly. Wasn't a deal breaker for us we just ended up needing to find extra blankets.

We went to our State Art competition with 7 of our girls. We wanted to find a place they could bond, enjoy nature and just disconnect. The bunk room was a perfect place for them and each of the teachers had their own room. The girls LOVED the house. They were always watching for deer (which we saw), they had a blast making smores, playing Jenga.... I even saw them running around outside like they were kids again, exploring and playing cornhole.
The house is so peaceful and in a PRIME LOCATION! So easy to get everywhere. We will always come back to this house for our event!!
Oh, and the renters are the sweetest people!!! :)
Thanks again for a great experience!!

We were in New Braunfels for the Z Z Top/Willie Nelson concert. I had my husband, our three adult kids, son-in-love, 9 week old grandson, sister-in-law and her family. We loved mornings watching the owl and six deer, grilled in the evenings, played horseshoes and shopped Gruene.

We all enjoyed your home to celebrate a few 50 year birthdays. It was the perfect spot to spend evenings after our country music excursions through hill country. Watching the deer in the mornings was such a wonderful bonus. We look forward to our next visit. Thank you for opening your home to us. The Missourians!

Easy peasy. Clean, well equipped. Great spacious property. Plenty of privacy!

This is probably the 4th -5th time at this property so I know it well. Always clean, great outside areas and close to Schlitterbahn and Comal river activities. If you have a larger group and don’t mind not being right on the river this house is good value for the money

We loved the property! The house was spacious. The beds were VERY comfortable. The outside area was gorgeous. It is located close to everything. Highly recommend!
5.0
Overall the stay was good, the beds and all were clean and nice but there were some things that do need attention. Mainly the showers are almost all hot or no hot, both are the same so that should be looked at and also there is water damage around the vents in the kitchen with paint coming off. There was a musty smell when we arrived from going out that we suspect came from there. Great location to Gruene. We had a blast!
5.0
This was just what we needed. The kids loved being outside.There was a tree perfect for them to climb on, lots of balls, a swing and tons of room. The ten of us also had plenty of room to enjoy each other inside as well. The kitchen had everything we needed.
5.0
This was the second time we stayed at this property as a family. Both times were special times for our family. We loved our stay. The outside space is perfect for our family because we love being outside, playing games, sitting by a fire, and just enjoying being together. The inside space is homey and comfortable. Plenty of room for all of us. We will definitely stay at this property again.
5.0
Wonderful stay and location. The house was nice and clean, had everything we needed. The place is on several acres with woods so the kids could play without worry. The kids loved playing around the area, open area for football, soccer, etc and we saw wildlife. Great experience for family with kids.

Seven of us ladies stayed at your wonderful house for 3 days. We were playing in a senior tennis sectionals tournament in New Braunfels. We all loved your “River retreat” and highly recommend it to others. Your location is perfect, house was spacious and well stocked, your outside grounds are beautiful, and overall perfect for us. Thanks so much.

Our band The Dogenstiens / Alpine Village band stayed 4 days at the property, while we shuttled back and forth to Wurstfest, which was only a 10min drive. We thoroughly enjoyed the property. The beds were nice, clean and comfortable. Bathrooms were all clean, as was the kitchen. After our shows, we would build a fire in the pit outside and enjoy a few beverages to unwind. Great place, would stay again.

We stayed at this property for our son’s wedding. Everything was perfect at the house except for raining most of the time which didn’t get to enjoy the beautiful back yard with lights. The rain did stop just before the wedding which was perfect. Location of property was within a mile of wedding venue which was also perfect. Rebecca was very helpful and responsive when contacting her. Will definitely stay here again. Thank You Rebecca!
