Time to take a break? Make a getaway? Ready to head to the Hill Country for some much needed R&R? Riverside Roost is your ideal home away from home on scenic banks of the Guadalupe River in New Braunfels.

This 1,200 sq ft home features three bedrooms and two full baths, comfortably hosting up to 6 guests. The kitchen is equipped with essential cookware and dinnerware, plus a grill is available for All Y'all who can't wait to cook up a terrific meal to eat out on the spacious deck. Riverside's large, relaxing upper deck is accessible through the living room and is shaded by giant bald cypress trees which shoot up from the riverbank below. Down at ground level you'll find open patios with “front row” seating so you can enjoy the river a little closer or at least enjoy playing lifeguard for the kids comfortably!

The cottage was cute, but the front porch and back patio needs serious cleaning, the windows/screens filled with cobwebs, and the coffee maker had old coffee in the carafe. But the inside was clean and we enjoyed ourselves.

Great spot on the river! We would be relaxing in our floats in the water and floaters would pass by saying they wished they had the house. Rooms are bathroom were spacious and clean. Would definitely stay again.

Enjoyed our stay! Everything was nice and in working order. The location was great and nice floating in front of house, nice to have the cement platform. Loved sitting on deck in the morning listening to all of the birds, so peaceful. We will or would stay here again.

Lovely Location

It was a great place for us to spend Thanksgiving with family. The river, trees and deck were wonderful - we really enjoyed being outside. The large kitchen table was perfect for eating meals and playing Mexican Train! We look forward to returning.

The house was very clean and the location is great. We loved the patio and convenient access to the river. This is a deeper part of the river and good for swimming or fishing. We are looking forward to visiting again next year.
