The house was clean, the view was ok but the 55 stairs down to the water was an impossible challenge for us. The tv didnt work very well until the last day when a lady came and rebutted it and then it was better. The sliding glass door would not lock going onto the patio until we found a stick that we could put in it so no one could open the door. The house is rather old but clean and the kitchen was well stocked. The pictures are rather deceptive as we could see highway 39 from the family room windows and could hear the traffic.

The house was nice, but needs some major updates. Starting with drainage. When showering or using the washer, the water comes into the island sink. The shower by main kitchen drains very slow. The refrigerator in the main kitchen is very old. The coffee pot took a long time to brew. The deck had old nails sticking up. The bed in up secondary room, needs a new one - not comfortable at all. For paying 3,000 for 3 nights, there should not have been these issues.

Big slope to river

The place was clean and the beds are comfortable. Furniture has some wear which you want to make sure you disclose to property management or you get charged. From the pictures, we didn’t realize there was a steep slope to the river. Not friendly for seniors. And all bathrooms are tub/showers and two are soaker jacuzzi tubs so they were deep. Also, not friendly for seniors. Otherwise, it was a good rental with lots of room for everyone. And we enjoyed the Foosball table in the playroom. Great rental for younger people.

We loved your home. Thank you! We had a wonderful time with our children and grand children and great grand children. We did some swimming, kayaking, game playing, grilling and cooking. We used the back deck that overlooks the river for our 50th Wedding Anniversary celebration where we repeated our vows in front of our gamily.

Perfect for our big families

Such an easy check in process! This property was perfect for our big families to all stay together while having plenty of our own space. We were very nervous for our stay as we are very “picky”individuals but we 10/10 would recommend this property! Incredible views with easy access to swim in the Guadalupe river and big deck to sit near water! We enjoyed every bit of the water activities provided and surrounding! It was very convenient to float the comal river as well. Would definitely book again for our next trip!

Plenty of Room for a family gathering

Over all the home fit our needs for our family trip to the river. The ac in the home, mainly the upstairs was very uncomfortable trying to sleep at night. It did not get below 75* until after around midnight or so, still then it would only cool to 73*, 74*. Only (1) fan was provided for the (2) rooms upstairs. The AC vents down stairs leaked water/condensation the whole time we were there. The home is a much older home with an weird/old smell (very strong) in the stairway inside the home. There are also not outside fans.

Incredibly close to the city, and on the river too!

Loved the variety of spaces! Sprawling decks overlooking the river. Meandering common areas which accommodate the varied interests, and separate conversations, of a large group. The upstairs master bedroom is huge! Check-in was a cinch, as was check-out.

Great location on the river, convenient location

The house was very convenient to everything we visited. Shirt distance to Schlitterbahn, Comal river tubing, restaurants, and grocery stores. The house is old and needs some updating, but was clean. The air conditioner was set at 70 when we arrived, but read 78. The property manager sent an AC repairman fairly quickly and the problem was resolved, same with a clog in the drain of the upstairs bathroom. The house was roomy for 9 guests. Although we didn’t use them, the property provides kayaks, floats, and life jackets. There is ample parking.

Pros & Cons

The property has a fun rustic vibe in a great location, but requires a little maintenance and cleaning to be a truly outstanding. Upon our arrival we found the kitchen area wasn’t fully cleaned, with 2 dead cockroaches on the floor and the refrigerator was covered in grease and rust looking like it hadn’t been cleaned in years. It really should be replaced. The air conditioning for the second floor wasn’t able to properly cool. In order to be remotely comfortable when sleeping at night, my wife and I had to sleep without using the blanket or top sheet. Mind you, she’s one of those people who always feels cold, so as to give you some perspective. The rear deck area could also use some looking after. We found a few nails that weren’t flush with the deck boards that could easily cut someone’s foot if they barefoot. If these things were addressed, we would definitely stay here again.

The house was great! The property nice for the most part. Could use a grill. Several areas of upkeep are needed. With all that said it was an amazing time. The kids loved it. The family enjoyed the house 100 percent. The walk up and down the stairs lil rough on is older folks. I would definitely stay there again.
