Top notch stay
We have stayed at several vacation rentals in NB and were disappointed. Will Haus was top tier and we will definitely be looking to stay here again as we travel to the area often. Amy and Evan have thought of everything when it comes to this property. The kitchen is stocked with every thing you might need for cooking. Great open floor plan for visiting! Just a lovely place!!

It was just what we needed, a clean, wonderful space to enjoy the area(Schlitterbahn and Gruene) from. The kitchen was easy to navigate, HeB nearby. And our kids enjoyed the selection of board games. We look forward to returning!

We had a wonderful time staying for a weekend wedding! The house is beautifully appointed and an easy car ride to Gruene. The owners communicated with us before and after and were very helpful. We highly recommend this house when visiting New Braunfels.

Girls Trip - River Float
Perfect house for our group of 8. Super clean. Large spaces to spread out. Convenient. Actually slept 10 without the ‘trick’ of sofa’ like some say. Great sturdy adult bunk beds. Didn’t squeak with people climbing up and down. And real mattresses thank you. Gladly called dibs on a bunk bed, no sharing lol.
Only suggestion at all, few full length mirrors in bedrooms. Just needed little more mirror time with 8 women getting ready.
Absolutely!!! Stay here again!!!!
