Great stay. Had everything we needed. The deer and foxes at night kept us entertained . Nice big fire pits and comfy beds. Not really easy to access the river due to the rapids and surrounding private property.

The property was great and the house was very clean. Do to the recent floods we weren’t able to float directly from the property. The location was amazing and a short walk to Rockin R and Gruene. We saw a herd of deer every night in the yard. Will definitely stay here again.

Location was great and property was all we needed. One nit, as a VRBO owner myself, was no coffee for first morning. Otherwise, all good.

Perfect location in Gruene!
The house was perfect and just a short walk to Gruene. We brought our RTV to drive into town. River access was very close. We enjoyed the area under the house to hangout, along with the balcony. We will definitely stay here again.

Perfect for walking to Gruene Hall
We enjoyed this home. Each bedroom had large and comfortable beds and everything we needed for a quick weekend trip. Perfect for walking to Gruene Hall and not worrying about finding parking for events there.

Great Place
Location couldn’t be more clutch — the short walk into the town and the deck views create an amazing experience. The place desperately needs a deep clean beyond the surfaces Spider webs in the light fixtures, dust on the tops of the flat surfaces and under the beds as well…light in the stairwell was out as well as the light for ceiling fan 100% recommend

This was the perfect place for a gals day/night to celebrate one of our best friends moving/ getting married! Only downside was one of the girls cut her finger while cooking dinner and a first aid kit was no where to be found.

Great stay
Celebrated a family members birthday and the home accommodated for that. The fire pit was great and the river was a short walk down the property. I do wish the exterior photo was updated to reflect no trees around the home. We were hoping for some shade to sit under and enjoy a breeze. But over all was a great visit!
