Amazing getaway

My wife and I wanted to do something a little special for our 20th anniversary. We've always loved New Braunfels, and wanted a cabin - we miss our RV. I found Oak Crest Haus on Vrbo, and it looked like just what we wanted, and at a great price too. We were not disappointed! Josh got us all our details prior to our arrival. We walked through the front door and there was an anniversary card with a bottle of wine and two glasses! My wife thought I'd arranged it, but I had to confess it was our host. The whole stay was great! The cabin was well stocked with everything we needed. The bathroom was clean. The decor was very homey and charming without being too much. It was less than a half hour from everywhere we wanted to go. We would stay there again in a heartbeat..we will if it's available next time we're in New Braunfels. I'm bad about taking pictures, so there aren't any in this review. The ones in the Vrbo profile, however, are quite accurate.

Excellent value and proximity to San Marcos / New Braunfels / Canyon Lake

Excellent value to get out of the city, see lots of wildlife, fall foliage, float the river...I was attending a conference and wish I had more time and daylight to explore.

Very Pleased

This was a cute, welcoming little cabin! It was clean and comfortable with everything we needed. We enjoyed staying there very much! Since we are tall, we really appreciated the tall, corded shower head! The bed was so comfortable and had amazing sheets 😁. We were also very happy to have a list of suggestions/recommendations for nearby restaurants and things to see and do. The owners were very nice and very responsive to our communications! We will definitely be visiting again!

Perfect for anyone looking to stay in the area!

We had a wonderful experience at this property. Josh was incredibly communicative, and it was adorable and quaint for our two day stay to visit family at the lake. Everything was as listed, we made breakfast with the items in the kitchen, watched tv in the living room, and the bed was very comfy. There was also a cute cat that visited us a few times! We loved it and would definitely come back and recommend to everyone.

My Second Time Here!

I just love staying here! The property seems like it’s far out in the country, but is really EASY access to Canyon Lake, Wimberley, and Gruene…my favorite places. The house has everything you need…and the A/C did great, keeping up with these unbearable Texas temps! Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Cabin in the woods

It was wonderful! We felt like we were in the mountains. It was secluded but close enough to civilization. It was very clean and well labeled with a book of instructions. I loved the chalkboard in the kitchen with the pass codes and suggestions for places to eat in the area. 😊

Cute cabin, very clean

The cabin was super clean, with plenty of hand sanitizer and disinfectant wipes to utilize as necessary. It's cute with a good layout for its small size. It is very rural, so be prepared to drive a lot if you want to see the surrounding area. The only issue for us was that the internet / wifi was unreliable.

Quick stay

Very nice secluded location. AC in the bedroom kept freezing up, making the bedroom warm at night. I turned it off to let the ice thaw, and cleaned the filter, and it helped some. Enjoyed seeing the momma deer and her babies while we were there.
