Always fun in the hill country of texas
Nice central location to San Marcos, Wimberley, New Braunfels, and Fredericksburgs. After long days of hiking and shopping the place was perfect to come back to unwind, grab a bite at one of many local establishments and sit out on the patio. Would stay again!

Spring Break
Really enjoyed this place. When we pulled up we were greeted by several deer. They came by every morning and evening. The condo was super clean and well decorated. This is an end unit which is nice. You only have a neighbor on one side and it is right at the bottom of the stairs.

Cute and Clean
Checkin information was easy to follow. The condo was clean, well kept and had all the thoughtful little conveniences like coffee, shampoo/conditioner & bath soap. Great view of the lake from the patio and right across the small parking lot from the pool. Would definitely stay here again!

Perfect!
My family and I were looking for a quick few days away from the house and found this property. It was perfect for what we were looking for on the lake. Only a few minutes drive to the nearest "beach" and the marina. The house was clean and had all the necessities. There were 4 of us, which was a tad crowded, but the air mattress worked out perfectly. I would definitely recommend for a couples getaway or for a family of four.

About the host

Hosted by Loretta Christian or Steve Christian

Host profile image
We have raised 4 kids and have 7 grandchildren. We enjoy traveling and really enjoy staying at interesting properties rather than the usual hotels. When our kids were young, we came to the Canyon Lake/New Braunfels area quite often. We would take tubes or a raft down the river, go to Schlitterbahn, walk across the Canyon Lake dam, and just overall enjoy the beauty of the area.

Why they chose this property

This is a great area to enjoy the outdoors - kayaking, boating, river rafting, hiking. Live music in the summer at Whitewater Ampitheatre just a few miles away. Try the zip line in Wimberly, Schlitterbahn Water Park in New Braunfels, shopping or wine tasting in historic Gruene or catch a show at Gruene Hall. All of these are about a 20 minute drive away. San Antonio is only about 45 minutes away where you can see the Alamo or take a stroll down the Riverwalk.

What makes this property unique

Our place has everything you need to make you feel at home after enjoying the great activities in the area. It is perfect for a couple's get-away or for families with one or two kids. We have a swimming pool on site, free parking including a few spaces large enough for boats or RV's. Relax in the evenings on the balcony with a glass of wine and enjoy the lake view or feed the deer that come around most evenings.
