Nice party place
We enjoyed our stay. Great place to celebrate our daughter’s college graduation. Very roomy and beautiful view. However, communication regarding parking was inaccurate and the fact that parking was limited wasn’t communicated until 2 days prior to stay. Some beds didn’t have top sheets which was odd. The party room wasn’t the cleanest it could have been. The fact that we could drop our items off prior to check in was a great help.

We came in from Denver Colorado to enjoy schlitterbahn and floating the river. We had a blast and the house was awesome location. The house had everything we needed as we grilled every night. Great for entertaining a big party. There is a shallow part of river the kids played in right next to house. Great time. Will come back.

Great house
The home has tons of supplies and amenities… One of the best I’ve ever seen. If you don’t find what you need, keep looking. It’s a big house. Everything is there. One of the best things about this house is that it has very few stairs to get to the bedrooms on the main floor. Most of the new Braunfels houses Have a lot of stairs which are really difficult for older people and a big family reunion group. This one was fabulous. Very accessible.

Family Fun
Our Family of 13 rented this house and it was just perfect! We loved the latter down to the river! Its not as scary as it first looks! You NEED TO BRING FOLDING CHAIRS to put out by the latter in the river to watch kids if you have family with you! We had a Chef come for my birthday dinner and that was really fun! One more suggestion- Bring SMALL BLOWER to blow off berries each morning! You cant do without the lovely trees for shade but the berries can be tracked in the house and everywhere! So a small blower packed or just use water hose each morning! HUGE HOUSE WITH tons of bedrooms and mattress were really good!

Nice place to stay!
The house is very easy to get to, and has plenty of parking. We enjoyed the deck, where we played cards, talked and watched the river. There’s really not anyplace, yard, for little ones (3-11years) to play, except the driveway. The upstairs loft/sleeping area is very spacious and nice, but tends to get very warm. The A/C is controlled and monitored off the property, so adjusting the air (below 70) is forbidden. There are signs posted everywhere to NOT turn the A/C below 70*. If you do, it gets shut off for a day. We had trouble connecting to the WiFi, but after great communication with the owners, they came over and fixed it. The kitchen is spacious, where we enjoyed preparing a yummy family dinner together. The ‘Party Room’ has a bar, refrigerator, microwave and that’s about it. There is an outdoor tv next to a big picnic table that we enjoyed. The access to the river is off the back deck, down a metal spiral ladder that looked a little scary. The side gate (that had a sign leading to the river) off the deck was zip tied shut, so there’s no getting out that way. You have to walk out the front door to the street and walk down the side of the house. Check-in for this property is 4:00pm, so by the time you get in, explore the house and get supplies, it’s bed time. Check-out is 11:00am sharp! The neighborhood and surrounding area is very charming, and the owners were helpful with the WiFi. We’d probably stay at this property again, if the weather was much cooler (outside temp was muggy and warm, inside was even warmer with 17 people and not being able to cool the house a little) and it was just adults. We still give it 4 out of 5 stars.

fIND A NEW CLEANING CREW!!
The house was great with good common areas, wonderful deck areas, and good access to the Comal. The Comal is such clear cool water and shallow enough in front of the house that our manty children could play. And close enough to the chute that the older children walked up river and road the "rapids" down to the house - and they did it repeatedly! The cooking capacity was excellent with two ovens, a good cook top, a propane grill and a charcoal grill. BUT we found beer bottles (full of cigarette butts) on a balcony, pizza under beds that predated our arrival, most beds were "made" with only a bottom sheet and a light blanket thrown over it - i.e. not made and ready to use. The towels were all in the dryer - not quite dry - and had to be folded and distributed. With the substantial cleaning fee charged, I felt that the cleanliness was totally unacceptable and required substantial work on my part before I could begin to enjoy the facility.
