About this property

Braun Rio - Guadalupe River, 2 King Master Suites, Loft, Riverfront Patio

Looking for a slower pace on your next vacation? Want to be close to the action, but not in the middle of it? Braun Rio might be just what you're looking for when planning your next vacation getaway in the Hill Country.

The home is uniquely nestled on a stretch of peaceful Guadalupe riverfront. Instead of neighbors on the other side of the river, you'll find only lush trees and a tranquil setting. The home is also tucked neatly away from any main roads, so distractions and traffic noise are a non-issue. Kick up your feet and enjoy one of two deck areas overlooking the river, or make your way down to the riverfront patio, where you'll find easy water access, additional seating, and an available charcoal grill to cook a memorable meal on the banks of the river. Inside, you'll find two king master suites and the kitchen, dining, and living areas on the main floor. The upstairs loft is a perfect place for the kids to tuck away for the evening with a TV, game table, and upper deck access. Go ahead, pack those favorite games.

It was absolutely a fantastic four night five day stay. This is the second year in a row that we’ve gone and stayed at the Braun Rio. We love this house. It is so nice and clean and a fantastic place to stay on the river. Vacay did a great job communicating with us and accommodating us at every request. We will probably go back again next year highly recommend you check it out!!

Baby shower

I had my daughter and daughter in laws for a quiet weekend babyshower. My daughter needed some TLC! It was lovely. We slept so well. We sat by the water and saw a deer run through the river then a hawk with a fish in its talons! The birds sang while we had coffee and visited in the morning: it was great! It was good energy for our new little one coming into the world! Well stocked kitchen. Beds were soft. Clean. It was wonderful.

Relaxing stay!

Our stay was very relaxing and quiet- which is just what we we wanted. We spent a lot of time on back porch and terrace and enjoyed a campfire on the river’s edge every night! The beds were super comfortable!

Great house, Great location

My family and I loved this house. The property is just beautiful. Very private. Great access to the River . Lots of different spaces outside to hang out. The inside of the house was great. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed. This is a house we plan on coming back to again and again!

We enjoyed our stay in this lovely home not 50 yards from Guadalupe River! We enjoyed sitting outside on one of the two balconies at this home, watching the wildlife. We saw turkey, deer, and lots of different birds...it was a nice and peaceful getaway!

Family getaway on the river!

The Braun Rio is wonderful! The photos do not do it justice to being there in person. Family had a great and memorable trip on the river. Beds were so comfortable, kitchen had all the dish ware you could need, having 3 bathrooms was a major convenience, and the direct access to the river in the back yard was the best part! We were able to bbq some hamburgers and hotdogs while still enjoying the water! We will definitely book again at Braun Rio.

Disappointed in property because pictures presented more favorable house than actually was. Kitchen windows and sliding door were filthy. Roaches in bathrooms, no TV in living room, Balcony dirty, grounds unkept, mirror in bathroom by laundry room was dirty. Will not be returning.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear you were disappointed during your stay. We were not made aware of these issues until you were preparing to depart, which unfortunately didn’t allow us to address them while you were here. Our team works hard to maintain the property, and we recently had professional pest control performed. We also had a strong storm during your stay, which may have affected the appearance of the grounds. We appreciate your input and will continue working to improve the guest experience.
