River Vacation

The home was able to accommodate our party of ten. Then living room areas are separated by the kitchen which allowed for privacy. The house is furnished with plenty of utensils and cookware but you will need to bring your own seasonings. Overall, the location was centrally located and the house met our basic needs.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Overall, we enjoyed our stay, but there are definitely some areas that could use improvement.The biggest downside was the comfort of the home. The furniture is very outdated and uncomfortable, and the beds were extremely firm, making it difficult to get a good night's sleep. We'd recommend adding mattress toppers. The shower heads could also use an upgrade, as they aren't adjustable. The master side of the house, especially the bathroom, stayed noticeably warmer than the rest of the house.The home could also use a little more attention to maintenance. We found cobwebs around the beds and nightstands, and there were several wasp nests around the patio that should be removed. There are no TVs in the guest bedrooms, and the TV in the master bedroom is very small, which may matter if you're planning to spend much time indoors.On the positive side, the location was excellent and very convenient to all of the activities we had planned for the week. One of our favorite perks was the free kayaks and the short walk across the street to the lake. The home includes one two-person kayak and one single kayak. We were hoping for two double kayaks so our family of four could all paddle together, but we still appreciated having them available.Overall, this property has a great location and some nice amenities, but it would benefit from a few updates and better maintenance to make guests more comfortable.

4 Nights Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I will say that the pictures are a bit deceiving the water front is not in your backyard it's actually across the street. The master bedroom bed is very hard, the grill was a bit dirty,no sugar for our coffee, lastly I would say the dining room chairs were also very old and uncomfortable. Other than that the place was fine for the family of 5 and a small dog.

Thank you for the feedback! I'm so sorry you did not have a 5 star stay. I apologize for any miscommunication, but it is stated in the listing that the river access is across the street, and in a couple of different emails that we do not provide anything perishable in the unit, including salt/pepper, etc. We hope you'll give us a second chance in the future! We do manage over 130 properties in the area and would be happy to help you find the perfect one! Thanks, NBE

Not enough bedroom and lot of pet hair

I have been to New Braunfels several times and stayed in various properties. First the property backside is not facing the River side. Posted Pictures are misleading. There is no fence and pets can run outside. Bedrooms are so small and mattress quality not great. No dishwasher and lot of pet hairs all over the place.

Hello, I'm so sorry that you were not satisfied with your stay. It is very clearly stated in the listing that the river access is across the street, and that you must walk across the street to get to the river access. I apologize if you did not see this prior to your arrival. If you had given us a call during your stay, we would have been more than happy to send out the cleaning crew if something was not up to par. We also do not advertise this home as having a dishwasher. Again I'm sorry you were not happy with your stay as we strive to give all of our guests a 5 star stay. Thanks, NBE

Clean house with updated bathrooms

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were there for the comal and Guad. rivers. We didn’t expect river access so being across the street was not a deal breaker for us. If you have jet skis or a small boat, the dock access that comes with the house will suffice. It’s a nice quiet neighborhood. The home was very clean and well organized. I’ve stayed in rentals not near this prepared for guests and not near as clean. The owners were easily accessible by email and responded within minutes. I didn’t really need anything but had a question about trash pickup. Overall, nice home for our needs.

First, I would like to say that overall our experience was pretty favorable. The top items: -90% of the house was a comfortable temperature. -spacious area for games with fam -guest rooms served well -backyard was spacious as well -grill worked -had river access Opportunities -master bedroom and bathroom were not ventilated well (couldn’t use until corrected) -took two days of back/forth to get action out of management (did supply an AC unit on third day) -floors had not been mopped in a while (horribly dirty feet) -hope you are not the one left to sleep on the sofas

Hi Matt, thank you for taking time to review your stay. I am so sorry we have managed this home for over 5 years and never had any complaints about the temp in the master bedroom. We did send an ac tech and the next day we installed an window unit in the master. This has been the hottest summer on record with triple digit heat. We do use a professional cleaning service to clean our properties and inspect the property prior to arrival. We will speak to the cleaners about this immediately. We hope you will give us another chance in the future as we strive to provide a 5 star experience. Thanks NBE

728 Zipp Away LD

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Thank you for sharing your beautiful home. Quaint little neighborhood in New Braunfels. The home is located across the street from the Comal River, however, after seeing signs DANGER ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK and a speed boat going by at accelerated speeds we decided that the river running behind the houses across the street was more of a docking area for boats rather than tubing recreation. We had a blast going to the Comal river, Shopping at the Gruene, swimming at Landa Park and on the way out we went to the Natural bridge caverns where they so generously kept our dogs in my kennels in a shaded area in the back. I might suggest a sign and roll of bags in the back yard to clean up after your pets because there was pet excrement left behind by the previous renters. I always carry pet pick up bags on my leashes so I didn't need any bags. The only other suggestion I may have is it might be nice to have a dishwasher installed soon to sanitize dishes properly.

Nice but 10 people is a stretch

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home is beautiful and completely updated, though the layout is a little odd. While they have sleeping for 10, make sure you take into consideration 1 full size bunks are for 2 people each. We knew this and brought blow up mattresses so that only 1 adult would be on each full size bunk. Kitchen was large and workable. Bathrooms were nice, master was unbelievable!! My biggest complaint...there is not seating for 10 people in 1 room of the house (we all wanted to be together to watch movies). The living room has couch that can seat 3 (it was the size of a loveseat) with a lazyboy and a small card table with two chairs (not meant for lounging).Dining area had 4 chairs. Then a weird second living area with only 2 comfy chairs. Not ONE place inside where we could all sit together. They would do so much better with a large sectional in main room and small sectional in the small living area. We all tried to sit outside but there was a yellow jacket problem. We found 3 different nests. They came out 2 different days to spray. Wasn't until the morning we left we could actually go out there.This house is beautiful and works 4-6 people but NO WAY for more than that.

Nice size and clean.

Master bedroom bed is so hard we ended up sleeping on the pull out couch bed. Weirdly it was more comfortable then the actual bed. Trash can in garage still has trash in it from past visitors with diapers in it. (We had no babies). Also trash on dock is completely full. We really couldn’t get into the water because the visitors directly across the street had the access blocked with all their water toys. But all in all we had a great visit. Only real complaint we had was there wasn’t enough seating in the main living room for 7 of us to sit and visit.

It was okay..

I would have cancelled if I could have. I just don’t think this property should have been worth so much for a 3 night stay. I swept the floor and found a lot of white dog hair. I don’t see what the maids clean, you pretty much clean the place yourself all they have to do is wash everything. They don’t have a dishwasher so be prepared for that. I agree with the post before me that the rooms just weren’t big enough for sleeping 10 people and we had less people than that! The walk across to the river isn’t so bad. If you have children though you might want to accompany them as people drive like it’s a freaking highway on that street! It wasn’t terrible but it wasn’t great either wouldn’t stay here again.
