A+!
The property was perfect. The house was so clean (even the baseboards) and incredibly well-stocked. Linens were clean and we had plenty for a group of 20. We loved our stay and would definitely return. The host sent all info as needed for check in and house details. My only complaint was getting no response to a number of questions I emailed repeatedly.

Spring break 2023
Our 3 families spring break together every year and decided on Texas this year. We enjoyed how close the house was to a lot of excursions. The house is great and was so comfortable.

Beautiful Home
This home is lovely with plenty of beds and a great view! We enjoyed our stay! The kids fished and kayaked, we soaked up the views, enjoyed the hot tub, had coffee on the deck, and sā€™mores by the fire. There are two refrigerators in the kitchen, several ovens, plenty of extra towels, and a wonderful ice machine in the bar area. We lacked nothing. The host was great communicating as well. We would definitely recommend this home for your stay!

Our Family Gathering
We had a 4 generation gathering. Ages ranged from 18 months to 76. Trust me, there was something for everyone to enjoy. You are in such a fantastic location to enjoy several activities. Some went to San Antonio and enjoyed a Spurs/Rockets game. Others took a stroll down the Riverwalk. Others took the kids to a amusement parks, and wildlife farms, while others enjoyed shopping and local eateries. Not to mention just off the backyard there were those who chose to go kayaking, fishing, and simply take in the gorgeous water views. Our party consisted of more than 25 and yet there was a bed for every head. Our home was immaculately cleaned upon arrival and there was more than enough room. Our host was easily accessible throughout our stay, and amenities galore. Thank u for leaving my family with wonderful memories.

Great experience and in a superb location
We really enjoyed our stay on this calm and huge home. Our initial intention on booking this home was to maybe kayak on the river but we were entertained with other things that we didnā€™t get to use them. The kiddos really enjoyed fishing and playing in the gameroom. The home was clean and was fully supplied with anything you can think of. The outdoors was quiet and we really had a relaxed weekend. Would I stay here again, absolutely.

Beautiful home and property
The home and property were beautiful and very relaxing. We had 10 people with us, everyone was very comfortable and had plenty of room. Plenty of places to sit and visit inside and outside. The house was very well stocked and easy to find anything we needed. The backyard was so relaxing. The guys fished and BBQ. I can not say enough about how peaceful our stay was. Trent and Holly were very helpful and always fast to answer any questions we had. I will defiantly be booking this property again.

About the host

Hosted by Holly

Host profile image
Hello fellow vacationers! I'm Trent Smith and I operate 5 highly rated nightly house rentals from Lubbock to New Braunfels! My goals are the same as yours. To have plenty of space, be close to the action while still having privacy, have games, plenty of seating, make the houses updated & clean. I stay in my own houses very often to test them out and fix things & add more neat features every time. I know you'll enjoy!

Why they chose this property

Because it's so close to New Braunfels while also being waterfront on the lake. Houses like this don't come up for sale often and especially don't become available to the public for rent like this often.

What makes this property unique

Unique by being so close to New Braunfels (6 minutes) while still being on the Lake! Canyon Lake and Lake McQueeny are 20-30 minutes away from New Braunfels while this exclusive Lake Dunlap house is only 5 minutes to the city limits!
