About this property

COUNTRY SETTING CLOSE TO BIG CITY ATTRACTIONS

**PLEASE READ THOROUGHLY BEFORE BOOKING/MAX=4 PEOPLE, ONLY PAID GUESTS ALLOWED & BOOKING GUEST MUST BE AT LEAST 25 YEARS OF AGE**

Country setting with quietness and tranquility just minutes away from the many activities available in New Braunfels, Gruene, Canyon Lake, Whitewater Amphitheatre or other surrounding areas!! Walk up a flight of stairs (17 steps) thru your private entrance into a spacious, 750 sq ft, suite-like apartment where your family can relax in the comfort of your home-away or on your private covered balcony before enjoying the numerous various attractions nearby. The rental is attached to the main quarters of the house (2nd floor over carport/garage area) and the owners live on-site, however, it is very private and unassociated with the owners' homestead. The rental is conveniently located only minutes away from Schlitterbahn, Guadalupe/Comal Rivers, Gruene, Canyon Lake, Whitewater Amphitheater, Stars and Stripes Drive-In Theatre, Landa Park or Fischer Park, and all the other attractions in and around the New Braunfels area. The rental is decorated with a personal touch to brighten your stay and give you the "homely feeling". There are hardwood floors throughout bedroom, living room and kitchen area. The bedroom/living room are combined with 1 queen bed, 2 twin beds, Loveseat and 2 lounge chairs, ceiling fan, 32" TV, DVD, VCR, fiber optic cable, Wifi, internet. The kitchen is equipped with a full size refrigerator with icemaker, 2-burner electric cooktop and convection microwave and convection toaster oven. Dishes, glasses, silverware, pots, pans as well as coffee makers (Keurig and 10-cup drip), blender and toaster, and some paper amenities are provided. The tile floor bathroom is spacious with a walk-in shower and ceiling fan. Bathroom/kitchen towels and bedding are provided (pool towels not provided), but will not be exchanged during your stay. A large propane/charcoal grill is provided for your outdoor cooking with a playground close by. After a long day of sightseeing, shopping or playing, grab your favorite beverage and relax on your private balcony, multiple porches/decks or poolside and enjoy the scenery of wildlife and birds roaming the 3-acres. Locusts and Katydids will serenade you in the evening. We are in the country, so you may encounter other bugs/insects, etc that call this "home", therefore, if you are afraid of a "fly", this place may not be suitable for you. Enjoy swimming in your private pool (not heated for cooler months) before your adventurous day or after coming back and winding down. On those cozy evenings, sit around the fire pit (bring your own wood) talking about good ole times and roasting marshmallows. There is plenty of secure parking for all your water toys. This is a private rental, therefore, only you and your paid guests are allowed to be on the premises and use the facilities. Forgot something, don't worry, owner on-site and can help you out.

Awesome family getaway destination

My 6yr old son loved the playground, the trampoline, the pool and its slide. Wild deer come to the property twice a day to eat which makes for quite a sight. The garage apartment is very clean and has all what one needs. Finally the location is very central we visited Canyon Lake, New Braunfels downtown, Gruene, San Antonio and San Marcos. Deedee is very welcoming and ensures the stay is great while providing full privacy.

DeeDee’s Hideaway

We had a lovely time during our stay at DeeDee’s. It was the perfect set up for our family vacation. Our two girls loved their beds and swimming in the pool every evening. We enjoyed watching the deer, grilling dinner, and relaxing. Deedee was very accommodating, and we plan to come back every summer!

Perfect place to relax

We stayed for 3 days at Debra's rental to get close to the 2024 solar eclipse. We really enjoyed the comfortable air-conditioned indoor space and the outdoor pool, water slide, trampoline, and neat metal sculptures made by Debra's husband! It was perfect! We also enjoyed meeting Debra and talking to her about the area. Thank you! I would highly recommend this place!

Short stay in Hill Country Paradise

Deb made the check-in process easy and very helpful. She gave us a quick rundown and answered all our questions. The property was very clean, cozy, and as advertised. The living space was perfect for my family. The kids loved the two separate beds and the balcony. However, the highlight is the outside. The kids loved playground and trampoline, but the pool stole the show. Deb had an excellently maintained pool with all kids of water toys and an awesome water slide. Plus, lots of deer to see. Great place and great host. We will stay again!!

Perfect for Rest and Relaxation

My husband and I traveled from Ohio to Texas for our sons wedding. We decided to make a vacation of it and came a week early for some much needed time away from work. Debbie’s place was perfect in every way. We so enjoyed the beautiful apartment Pristine and beautifully decorated! Also equipped with everything we could possibly need including the best coffee cups for the kureg! The pool was awesome and we enjoyed it very much! Loved listening to the water fall from the rock wall. The visits from the deer were amazing to watch. Debbie was a wonderful host and she always checked on us to make sure our stay was perfect. And it truly was. We also enjoyed some wonderful food at nearby restaurants . Thank you so much for your hospitality!

About the host

Hosted by Debra Gibson

Host profile image
We have been married for 46 years and have 2 wonderful daughters, who gave us 2 outstanding son-in-laws and 4 gorgeous/intelligent grandkids. We grew up in San Antonio, only 30 miles south of New Braunfels, but it only took a few years after marriage to call our home New Braunfels. Through years of living here, we have seen a small town develop into a huge town with so much beauty, culture, history, attractions, etc that keeps a family connected.

Why they chose this property

We lived on the Guadalupe River for years, but decided to make a change. We wanted to still live in New Braunfels; but since the town has grown so big outside the city limits, we were still able to find a place within NB with a few acres to roam on. We love the outdoors and New Braunfels definitely has a lot to offer in that category. No matter what season it is, there is always something happening in New Braunfels.

What makes this property unique

When we came to see our current home, our first impression was the beautiful property covered with too numerous to count oak trees. Then, we entered the house and instantly fell in love. We have just enough acres to roam on and feel free without interrupting neighbors. Our beautiful property gives one the serenity they need after a stressful day.
