About this property

Waterfront Luxury Home on 5 Acres. Sleeps 22. Beds: 5 king, 4 queen, 4 twin XL

JB2 River Ranch is a comfortable and luxurious space for your next family reunion, multi-family vacation, or corporate retreat, with a full remodel completed in June 2022. We have over 250 ft of riverfront on Lake McQueeney with a wide, multi-level dock for lakeside fun. JB2 is close to all the restaurants, bars, and activities of New Braunfels, Historic Gruene, and Seguin while enjoying the tranquility and openness of a rural getaway.

Lake McQueeney dam replacement was completed in March 2026 and water levels are back to normal.

The Main House features a gourmet kitchen, 3 dining areas, 2 living areas, 5 bedrooms, and 4 bathrooms. The courtyard layout includes a Casita, with separate entrances, an additional kitchenette, 2 bedrooms, and 1 bathroom. With ample outdoor seating over multiple levels, everyone in your group will be able to enjoy the 180-degree water views.

Our home sits on 5 private acres, about 1/2 mile from the main road. Find your peace away from the hustle and bustle of the city: take a dip or float in the river, fish for catfish and bass from our dock, watch the herds of whitetail deer, listen to the birds chirping, or take in the majestic sunsets over the water.

The house is located above the 500-year floodplain, approximately 40 feet above the water and lower dock. The deepest part of the lake is in front of our dock, and you have direct access to float, swim, fish, or paddle. We tend to have fewer powerboats coming through vs. closer towards Ski Lodge, as there is a shallow area a few hundred yards downstream of us.

INCLUDED AMENITIES:

* 250 feet of waterfront with a huge dock & deck.
* Fully equipped kitchen to create gourmet meals.
* 2 full-sized refrigerators/freezers.
* Traeger pellet grill.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES:

* All new flooring.
* All new paint inside & out.
* All new window treatments.
* All new lighting.
* Eclectic mix of brand-new, antique, and custom handcrafted furniture.
* Art collected by ourselves and our families throughout our travels.

*** Please note: Our home is located in a rural area. You may encounter a variety of wildlife on the property, including deer, insects, fire ants, mice, spiders, birds, snakes, raccoons, lizards, etc. We do our best to prevent pests inside the house, but you may still encounter them.

Main areas of the property for your use are:
- The main house (the 'Casita' is part of the same main house and garage structure, with an arched walkway from the front yard through to the back courtyard)
- The dock and yards
- The covered picnic porch, tables, and gas grill by our barn (not inside the barn itself)

*** We do not provide outdoor towels or blankets for the dock and lake. Please use our bath and hand towels inside only.

About the host

Hosted by Jeff & Jessica

Host profile image
We're excited to share our second home with you for your vacation. We live in Austin and love spending time with our family at Lake McQueeney. We enjoy going out for dinner and music in New Braunfels and Gruene, especially exploring the area to find fun restaurants and breweries.

We are experienced hosts and want to make your stay comfortable and easy. We previously hosted our second home in Lake Tahoe on VRBO for 11 years and earned VRBO Premier Host recognition continuously.

Why they chose this property

We looked at a lot of houses in the Hill Country, and knew immediately that this was 'the one'. The high ceilings and enormous windows provide an airy feeling and great views. The common areas of the Main House all flow together so large groups can comfortably gather. The Courtyard setup with the Main House, multiple patios, and Casita provides a great space for large groups, while still allowing you to find a quiet moment when you want. Lake McQueeney is nice and quiet since there is no public access to this section of the Guadalupe.

What makes this property unique

There's nothing quite like sipping a cup of coffee on the back deck as the sun rises over the water and the birds chirp in the trees. Yearround, Lake McQueeney is breathtakingly beautiful - and only minutes from the attractions, restaurants, bars, and dance halls of New Braunfels and Sequin. We found this property to be the perfect combination of peaceful tranquility and modern convenience.
