Holiday in Gruene

Accommodations are wonderful for our large group of 12 adults. Plenty of room for all of us to relax (when we were there). Pool was nice, many of us used it. Lots of room for the yard games which we brought. Grill was handy for our cookout. Overall an excellent place to stay>

Family vacation

We found a few days where our entire family had a chance to be together, relax and have fun. The home is huge and the pool was a definite hit. It’s an ideal location close to downtown Gruene and the river. We enjoyed watching the wildlife and going on early morning walks. Although the home is older and in need of some minor repairs, it was comfortable and provided us with the room to spread out and enjoy our time together. The hostess and cleaning staff were very friendly and helpful.

Great house, great location super close to Gruene

House was really great….lots of room for our family of 16. Pool was nice, plenty of room for eating, visiting n the family room. Bedrooms were large with most having bathrooms in the rooms. Kids loved the bunk room and thought they had the best bathroom! Host answered all my questions whenever I asked by email prior to our stay. We would go back. Just a few minutes to Gruene.

Wurstfest

This was the perfect house to host 4 adult couples and three teen boys. Everyone had their own room and bathroom with the right amount of privacy. The living room was perfect for sitting around and visiting. The house is conveniently located near Rockin’R which has a shuttle and great little outdoor bar.

Good house for a group

The house was a great size for our extended family of 9. The 3 couches in the living room hold 9 and the two tables in the dining room each have 6 chairs. We were able to eat and play games together. Lots of counter space in the kitchen. It was hot (highs > 100 deg F) during our visit so the pool was nice for cooling off. we saw deer several times in the front yard, but be aware of them when driving. There are a couple blind curves on the road to the property. A few things to be aware of. First, the room with twin bed does not have an air vent or fan and gets too hot to be habitable if the door is closed. The other bedrooms have A/C ducts and ceiling fans so I don't understand why this one does not. Second, the coffee maker is incredibly slow. It took over an hour to brew a 10-cup pot of coffee. Third, the thermostat set temperature would change without anyone in the house adjusting it. It is connected to wifi so I don't know if someone was changing it remotely. Every couple hours it would change to a higher temperature. We set it at 73 for night and woke up several times to find it had been reset to 76. It was reset to 79 while we were away, and we thought the AC had gone out when we returned. We made it a point to check the thermostat when we walked by and reset it as needed so it stayed cool inside. Overall we enjoyed our visit, As a suggestion, a couple picnic tables outside would be nice.

Wedding Week

We had a lovely time in New Braunfels. The location of the house was fantastic, the house was fantastic, and the size of the house was fantastic! We had plenty of room, the kitchen was very spacious and plenty of bathrooms for our guests. We utilized the pool and were able to relax and cool off from the August heat in the evening. Overall, I recommend families/group book a stay and enjoy a great time.

Loved it - Perfect Place for Families!

This house was perfect for us! We love the fact that everyone got their own room and bathroom. House was huge and the pool was an added bonus. The Host was very responsive when we had to contact her about a minor issue. Everyone enjoyed it down to the 3 year old! We will definitely book here again.
