About this property

Guadalupe River Ranch - Huge waterfront house with private pool on 63 acres.



When you first arrive to High Bank Ranch you will immediately see why we are the destination for family get-togethers and Guadalupe river fun. The 2 house complex is laid out to capture outdoor activities along with the ability to sleep 22 people in comfy beds. You can begin your day with poolside coffee highlighted by the sound of waterfalls and a cool breeze. When the you are ready for more activity there is volleyball/badminton/ping pong/ yard games, kayaks, and pool. The day only gets better in the first class outdoor kitchen built in 2016 (gas grill, electric oven/stove, cocktail bar sink, fully stocked cookware and utensils, fridge, wine fridge and deep freezer), the aroma from the Pizza Oven, and the 70 in. TV in the outdoor living space will keep your guests happy. Plenty of room for our guests to spread out, large driveway, and privacy galore on 63 acres. An added bonus is a full hookup for RV and barn/pasture if you would like to bring your horses, trail riding, hiking and biking.

Our property is situated on the Guadalupe River (Lake McQueeney section). The river here is not in the busy section so water floats are available for your use and we have 4 kayaks. Bring your fishing poles for Catfish and Bass. The 2 house complex includes 8 bedrooms (5 in main house & 3 in pool house), 5 full bathrooms (3 in main house & 2 in pool house), 1 outdoor shower, 2 hot tubs (1 in main house & 1 poolside), all linens/towels and cookware needed for your stay, Wi-Fi in both buildings and outside kitchen, 2 laundry rooms.

This was my family's second stay at the Ranch and it's excellence continues. It is a beautiful, secluded location but convenient to access. In addition to the beautiful Ranch house, it has an additional bunkhouse which is excellent for younger members of the family. The bunk room itself is a favorite with the younger members of our family. Susanne, the owner is extremely accommodating, and has been for both our visits. I have never stayed anywhere that was as beautiful or as clean as High Bank Ranch!!!! (I was having such a wonderful time, I forgot to take pictures!)

We were a group of friends there for a 40 year high school reunion and this was the perfect house for all of us. The pool and the outdoor kitchen were so nice and both the house and pool house were a great fit for us all. Susanne was very responsive so it was really nice to be able to get in touch with her if we had any questions. Definitely would love to stay here again.

Wonderful Place for Larger Parties

I have been doing our friends yearly Comal River Float event for 5 years and this was by far the best place for our party of 22. Enough beds, bathrooms, and plenty of food prep areas with 3 refrigerators and a deep freezer to cook for everyone. Highly recommend for a large headcount.

The home was beautiful and in a great location. It easily accommodated our group of 18, with plenty of space and sleeping arrangements for everyone. The pool, house, and restrooms were spotless and well-prepared for our stay. After entering through the ranch gate, there’s a short scenic drive to the property, which we loved—it felt private and secluded with no nearby neighbors. The check-in and check-out process was seamless, and overall the experience exceeded expectations. We would definitely book again!

High Bank Ranch was absolutely amazing. Our family of 22 fit comfortably in the two houses. Everything was so nice and clean. They thought of everything! The volleyball net, the pool, the lawn games , the ping pong table, the kayaks and the paddleboard kept all of our kids so busy and outside having fun together! Suzanne was such a great host. She even had Amazon deliver extra pizza pans for the brick oven pizza just to make sure we had enough. Highly recommended! We will be back!

The perfect retreat

The whole property was as advertised. Our annual family gathering is something we all look forward to every memorial weekend. This stay was amazing. We played games, listened to music and cooked great meals in the outdoor kitchen. Fished, and the little ones loved greeting the donkeys every morning. Accommodations are 5 star. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Family Easter Weekend

Pictures don't do justice for the property! It is well maintained, spacious, and cozy! Pool has the option to be heated which is a plus! Access to the river was close a bonus. It felt so much like a home away from home! We loved it! The Host Susanne was so kind throughout the entire process.

About the host

Hosted by Susanne Wilkerson

Host profile image
My family has been visiting the Hill Country our whole lives even while living and raising our children in the Houston area. After the kids graduated from high school we wanted to retire in a small town setting that still offered some big city activities close by. Most importantly water and outdoor excursions.

Why they chose this property

We were always drawn to New Braunfels. The people here are honest and friendly. There is always something to do and the climate of the area allows for year around outdoor activities. When the opportunity arose for us to own land in such a beautiful setting we were thrilled. We have put a lot of work and sweat into building our dream ranch.

What makes this property unique

Lake McQueeney is a hidden gem. You can drive into town and float the Guadalupe River in many locations but our section of the river is peaceful and serene. We love being able to put the Kayaks in the water for a leisure ride upstream or just tying a tube to the dock for lazy floating is my happy place.
