Wedding Weekend
We used all 7 of the bedrooms with family and friends for our son's wedding weekend - we even used the Pavilion for the Rehearsal Dinner. The house was large and spacious There was plenty of room for everyone to have space and not be crowded. Everything was clean and tidy when we arrived and the door code given to us was easy to remember (genius!). We had a great time and will keep this place in mind for future large group needs. Thanks for helping us have a memorable wedding weekend!

Family Fun
This property was perfect for our family Christmas trip! The accommodations allowed our family of 10 to be together under one roof. The party barn out back was a blast. Our teens and preteens loved it. They had plenty of entertainment. The house was well organized with everything we needed. Check in and out was easy.We will book this property again.

Don't make plans to leave the house
You might think you are going to go and do all sorts of activites all around the area, but you will feel so comfortable and have so much fun in the bar you will not want to leave. The kitchen is well stocked, plenty of bathrooms and hot water for your group, and the house has a super cool layout. 100 out of 10 stars.

Guys trip
Group of guys rented this house for a guys golf trip. The house was perfect. The beds were great, bathrooms were good, and the kitchen had everything needed for preparing dinner. The party barn was absolutely wonderful, all the games to be played inside with built in sound. Plenty of space outdoors to hold a corn hole tourney. We will be back!

Perfect spot for weekend floating
Very spacious house and fun party barn for our group of 14. We enjoyed pool, shuffleboard, and foosball in the party barn and just a short walk to float the Comal river. Walking distance to many restaurants for lunch or dinner was very convenient.

The perfect retreat for a large group
I was blown away by this place! It was so clean and had all the amenities we needed while we were there. My son got married at the County Courthouse and so we rented this home for our small group to be able to stay together. The party barn in the back was the perfect place for us to celebrate! Everyone had their own space and bathroom. There are so many games and tables there for everyone to play. It is so close, walking distance to so many attractions. If you are planning a group get together in New Braunfels, this is the place to go. We plan on getting back here as soon as we can! We won’t stay anywhere else. Highly recommend!
