Perfect small wedding venue
The property was amazing with incredible views. It was the perfect place for me and my wife to get married at. It was large enough for all of our family to stay at and prepare for the wedding which was at the level grassy area with the river behind us. The house is definitely set up for large groups. We look forward to staying there again, but next time will be to float the river with family. I highly recommend this house.

The pictures and descriptions don’t do this place justice. The home is absolutely beautiful and has everything you need for an amazing stay. We were a party of 19 and never felt crowded. We can’t wait to rent again!

Perfect Place for a Large Group
We recently stayed at this amazing home located right on the river in New Braunfels, TX. We were a group of seven (7) people on a business trip to the area and we usually stay in high end hotels but decided a house would be better for this trip due to logistics. The house has six (6) ensuite king bedrooms and a bunk room with two (2) bunk beds that fit adults, which worked out perfectly for us. The bedrooms are basically six hotel rooms in a house since each room is like a high-end hotel suite with full private bathroom, TV, King bed, etc.... The house is very spacious, spotless and has everything you could need for cooking & entertainment. There is an amazing pool/spa area out back as well as tons of outdoor patio areas but what I really loved was the location right on the river. You stroll down a huge grassy yard to the river which is so gorgeous & peaceful it makes you never want to leave. You can literally walk down the steps from the backyard and hop in the river. My only wish is that we had more time there because I did not want to leave. The owners were very informative and answered any emails almost immediately plus they left us a nice house warming present when we arrived which was greatly appreciated. I cannot think of one bad thing about this property other than the pictures, while good, do not do it justice. It truly is a place that is perfect for a large family or business gathering!!

Best large group house on the river
We loved everything about our stay, and loved the personal touch of drinks in the fridge and chips and salsa for us on the counter at arrival! The house was very clean and included everything we could ever need, including lots of towels for the pool. It comfortably slept our group of 6 families. We will be back!

Wow - Fantastic Home!
We loved the home! It was great for our large family that varied from age 2-77! The pool was fantastic and they thought of everything you would need in the home! (I hesitate to even give a review or else others will find out about this house and it will be so booked we won't be able to reserve it next time!) We'll be back!

The River Haus Trip
This is a great house to rent. The bedrooms all have terrific TVs in every room, kitchen supplies everything - even spices. Outside you have 2 large stainless grills. There are 2 of the largest refrigerators and 1 huge freezer. The seating area can seat over 20. We all like to cook many of the meals and it was so easy. Everything included - pans, spoon, nice silverware, sharp knives, tons of glasses, bowls and places. The pool is wonderful & large with a terrific spa and pool house with a shower. They even supply you with over 10 beach towels. The top yard is fenced and large. We played volleyball while others sat on the wrap-around patio and watched the kids in the pool and volleyball games. Then you can walk down to the cement area by the river with seating and lights in the trees at night. Get your float and you are on the river. It was the best house we have ever rented for 4 families, 1 single guy, 3 boys, and 5 girls - a total of 17. Everyone had their own space. We all loved it!
