Home away from home - You will love it!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: If you looking for a house that is close to Canyon Lake, the OxBow is an excellent choice! It is our favorite place when visiting family in Canyon Lake and the newly installed deer feeders are so cool when the deer come for dinner at sunset. The home is large enough for a large family and the river is walking distance from the house. We didn't do the river, as there was plenty to keep us busy at the house. The large patio has an outdoor kitchen, but we haven't used it yet. This will be our second time to stay at OxBow and we will be back. The hosting company and agent - Kate - is very responsive. Highly Recommended.

Oxbow river trip

The house was really nice and clean but I was disappointed the distance to the river. I filtered my search to water front which it wasn’t. I didn’t read the detail so that’s my fault. Also it has pool listed as a feature but then when check in instructions were sent, we were then told the pool is only for owners.

Mother's Day at Oxbow

Clean and spacious home with nice outdoor kitchen. The bedrooms were all spacious and the home felt like a brand new home. The internet worked flawlessly. Every bedroom had its own bathroom and TV. The only suggestion would be to provide some deer corn and maybe add a game room. But, you can't go wrong staying here. We will be back!

Clean, beautiful, and comfortable beds!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The photos are accurate, the home is clean, beautiful, has great gathering space inside and out, and comfortable beds! Three bedrooms each have their own bathrooms! The kitchen space and appliances are very nice. It was fun to watch movies on the back patio. The community is gated and quiet. The river is easy to walk to and there's a flagstone surface at the edge. A few of us jumped into the cold water for a quick swim(early April). The summer would be great! There are a few underwater ledges you might encounter. We enjoyed listening to a band at Gruene Hall, a delicious dinner at the Gristmill, and the German cuisine at Krauss'. It's a great place to stay if you're going to a concert at the Whitewater Amphitheater. We definitely recommend this property.

Wedding

Property was beautiful. Everyone was very comfortable in their room. It was nice that each bedroom had their own bath. The only complaints are that the fireplace was not working, We had cold weather and it would have been nice to be able to use it. The listing said there was a pool but yet you had no pool access if you want it to use it. Overall we were very pleased with our stay. Would definitely stay again.

Thanksgiving Family Time

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed the house to celebrate Thanksgiving. Having individual rooms with our own bathrooms was a plus. The upstairs was a great for the kids to hang out and sleep. The only change I would do is have more supplies for cooking as the items were limited.

Labor Day fun

We rented the house for two families of ten. The house was perfect. The location to Gruene, the lake, the river , everything was excellent. We will be back!

Perfect rental on the river for our family

The Oxbow house could not have been more perfect for our group. We had 3 couples and 4 kids (ages 11-13). Each couple had a spacious, cozy bedroom AND private bathroom. The kids had the entire upstairs space with their own bathroom and living room. We walked to the river access near the community pool and spent all day tubing and relaxing on the river. The kitchen was very well stocked with dishes, cups/mugs, utensils, grill utensils…etc. There was plenty of seating for everyone to eat and hang out downstairs. It was the nicest vacation rental we’ve ever stayed at.

Great stay

Property was great. Clean and spacious with lots of storage. Loved that the three bedrooms on the main floor all had attached bathrooms and the kids' space (bunk room, bathroom, and sitting room) was on its own on the second floor. Kitchen was well-equipped. Electronic access to the house was easy. Only complaint was that the water in the master bath shower was scalding hot no matter what you did and was essentially unusable. Even so, would definitely stay here again.
