This home has everything you could need, river access, it's close to The Horseshoe, Whitewater Amphitheater, Canyon Lake, New Braunfels, Schlitterbahn, Comal River, Gruene, Wimberly, Driftwood and the list goes on. Relax, unwind, and take it easy. You can go canoeing, kayaking, swimming, and fishing right out the back door. The Horseshoe and the Whitewater Amphitheater is 1 mile away from the house. This property is great for fly fishing, we are located on the Trophy trout zone where over 18,000 Rainbow and brown trout are stocked during the months of December-February just up river below the dam. The house has fishing poles available for use. Our home has 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, plus an outdoor shower with hot and cold water. It sleeps 8 comfortably but has a fold out couch and queen mattress. There are shades in all the rooms and the back room with the queen and bunk beds has blackout shades. It offers a full kitchen with island with 4 bar stools, and table with seating for 8. Living room has 60’ TV, Blue-ray player. The back deck has multiple levels including an area with a fire pit overlooking the river. There is a table with umbrella overlooking the water, plus an 8 person polywood picnic table with an umbrella, also an amazing observation deck overlooking the river that is built around a large Cypress Tree. Outside you have an outdoor shower with hot water, gas grill, stand-up paddle boards, kayaks, and a Canoe that seats 2. We have various kid and adult life jackets as well as water shoes located in the outdoor shed.

Yearly long weekend river trip!

Took our 18-24 year old kids plus one fiancé on our yearly trip to float the Guadalupe river and enjoy the river a second day in our backyard. We usually stay somewhere on Canyon Lake but this house right on the river was so much better! The backyard multi level deck and river access with lots of toys was perfect for the kids! We had such a good time. The house was stocked with everything we needed and the close proximity to the horseshoe, groceries and restaurants was perfect! We would definitely like to rent the location again! Communication with property managers was fabulous well! Thank you!

Fun Family Vacation

We wanted to spend time with each other and decompress, this is the perfect location for that. We were close to tubing, restaurants, and shopping. Nothing was over 25 minutes away. This house had a very fun vibe to it. Lots of places to gather and enjoy nature.

Perfect Getaway

This was perfect for our family vacation. All the water toys that were provided were awesome and made it so easy to enjoy the water. My girls are 7 and the bunk beds were one of the high lights of their trip, along with the solo kayaks. We traveld up the river each day and played in the shoot that was not far from the house. This spot was peaceful and enjoyable. Highly recommend.

2 day getaway

The house in lovely and so well equipped. The kids despite arriving at 7pm (bad traffic) were out on the paddle boards and kayaks within minutes of arriving. We enjoyed meals overlooking the river. We paddled to horseshoe falls and then paddled up river to the dam. Would really recommend this house to anybody wanting some quite time on the river.

Great location with everything you need

We stayed here with another family, and it was great! It's close enough to the horseshoe to be convenient, but there’s so many watersports that it's just as fun to stay in. We had kids from 7 to 10, and they all had a great time in the shallow water. The house had everything we needed for cooking, though bring any specialty spices you might want (salt and pepper were provided along with varying others). The grill was easy enough and worked well, as did the Keurig. Plenty of space for all 8 of us to eat and hang out. Highly recommend!

Wonderful celebration for my 60th Birthday!

We have been floating the Guadalupe for years but have nevered stayed on the river overnight. My husband rented this house for my 60th and all of my children and significant others met us there for the weekend. The house had everything you would need and was very comfortable. The quick access to the river was amazing. There are multiple decks overlooking the river and a variety of toys to play with on the river! It was so peaceful and relaxing. We will definitely be back! Thank you for a wonderful time!

Stayed this past weekend for a girls trip. Upon arriving the house seems small on the outside but once you go in it opens up. There were 6 of us total with plenty of sleeping armament options! The bathrooms were stocked with plenty of towels, toilet paper, and even some body washes-not sure if they were left behind by previous guests but it was nice! The laundry rooms was well stocked with detergents. The kitchen too was well stocked. Plenty of supplies for cleaning up. There was a tradition coffee maker, Keurig, a percolator and I want to say I saw a stove top espresso maker. The stove is gas powered and very easy to operate. Plenty of room to move around the kitchen. There were two doors that led to the back- one in the kitchen and the other is the sunroom bedroom. The one off the kitchen got used a lot in the morning to avoid waking up those that were still sleeping in the sunroom bedroom. River access was a breeze!! For those that are curious about the depth, I am 5’8” the water in the middle went to my hips. Further past the middle to the other side it got up to my chest. It is more of a muddy/sediment bottom than to rock but still very easy to walk around. It is a gentle current which made it easy to paddle up river on the paddles boards. The patio/desk it’s self was a great sitting around. It wouldn’t be a bad idea to bring and outdoor broom to sweep off a bit-it did not bother our group since most of us have traveled to this area a lot. Great property and will return!
