Our family of 10 had a great time at the Windmill Springs house in Gruene. The location is ideal!A quick walk to the shops and restaurants of Gruene.As well, a nice nature walk to the river front with perfect depth for river chair chilling. The best of both - Calm rapids flowing into calm water.The home owner was excellent at answering my list of questions before and during our trip.The outdoor decks are great for relaxing at the end of the evening.We will return

The multi-level house with perfect accommodations. Nice and cool throughout the home. Ideal location to all things Gruene and the river. My only suggestion would be to clear up a better walkway to the river.

Great house and location

Overall appearance was clean. However, noticeable cob webs in the skylight and ceiling fans, as well as thick dust on window blinds and A/C intake vents. Also, the deck has loose/broken boards with exposed nails and/or screws, which was concerning with little ones around. The second floor patio sliding glass door does not lock. As noted in the comments, the path down to the river is a difficult hike up and down, but doable. Not good for elderly or young kids. Kitchen could also be better furnished. All easy fixes that should be taken care of. Nice to have an industrial ice maker available, and the beds were comfortable.

Home away from home

Husband and I and our 3 kids (15, 11 & 4) stayed here 5 nights for Thanksgiving week. We love Gruene and stayed at a different VRBO this summer.. we loved this home so much because of its seclusion but right on the edge of town and walking distance to all! Great views, tons of balcony space and seating. Living area and kitchen were spacious and again, plenty of seating for much larger groups! We will be back!

Family enjoyed stay close to everything

There were 10 of us that stayed. 7 adults and 3 children. The house fit us perfectly. The 4th room is really not a room. It is located off the master restroom and it is tiny. My grandson whom is 7 stayed in that room and was able to fit on the small bed. The location is great and walking distance to everything. It was very hot when we went and the A/C had a hard time keeping the house cool. The steep walkway to the riverfront was really hard to get to if not fit. Otherwise, great house great location we enjoyed sitting on the porch at night listening to the bands playing across the road. Great pizza place right across the street.

Fun, spacious house in a great location

We had a great stay and loved the closeness to shopping, entertainment, dining and river access. The house was spacious -- loved the balconies. The river access is a steep climb down but we enjoyed sitting in the river and swimming.

Great location

Loved the multiple levels of this house. Couldn’t get a better location for walking to town or walking to the river. Loved the ice machine under the porch. We did think it was a four bedroom but really just a 3 bedroom with a loft with a twin bed off the master bedroom which didn’t accommodate our other couple we had Invited. Only other thing was the bottom floor. It said owner storage but looked like someone was living there. Never saw anyone though, but wondered if someone else was around. Great house and location for 2 families.

Great Home!!

We had a great stay at Windmill Springs In Gruene!! The house was super cool, the location was perfect and walking distance to everything you need, and the access to the river was very nice! The kids enjoyed the big yard and there was plenty of parking if you have multiple vehicles. Lots of great people watching and live music from the front porch too! All of the furniture was nice/new and the home was very comfortable for our family of 9. My only complain is the lack of privacy with the glass doors to the bedrooms and especially the bathroom. We will definitely be back!!

Great place for our small family reunion

This house is right in the thick of Gruene small city life. We enjoyed live music from the pizza place across the street one evening. The hike down to the river is for the physically fit only. But once there it is a lovely stretch of the Guadalupe river that we enjoyed for hours at a time. We also hiked over to the bridge and tubed down to our place. The loft bed was perfect for my 87 yr old father. He is good with stairs and the bathroom was right there for his numerous nightly visits. BUT, there is no door on that bathroom that also services the master bedroom. So we had to let each other know when it was occupied. Another family took the big bunkbed room and they asked me to let the owner know that the closet is full of cockroaches. They had their luggage in there, so they were careful when they got home. The kitchen was very nice, the decks and views amazing and it was almost a perfect vacation spot.

Great Location and Space

The property was very well maintained, clean, and comfortably fit 11 adults (as well as 5 large SUV/trucks). Plenty of space and sitting areas inside and out to enjoy each other’s company without feeling like we were on top of each other. Short walk down to the river with great space to get in the water and set up some chairs right next to some smaller rapids. Right across the street from a great pizza place and a very short walk (couldn’t be more than 5 minute walk) to the Gristmill, Rocking R Tube Rentals, Gruene Hall, etc. The house is basically right in the heart of Gruene which was a big plus for our group. Owner was very responsive and understanding when we locked ourselves out of the house on accident one night. We all would highly recommend this rental house and are very appreciative that Tracy allowed us to stay there for the weekend.

Wonderful Gruene Getaway

We had the best time…it was walking distance to Gruene Hall, the Gristmill, and Rockin R River tubes which kept us busy and entertained. The mattresses were very comfy for a rental and easily slept 8 adults. There are dishes but only 4 coffee cups and no dishwashing soap so we ended up getting disposable stuff which was fine. I would definitely recommend this rental!
