THE LAKE IS BACK, the damn has been repaired. Current pictures taken March 2024.

Beautiful newly remodeled 3 bedroom 2 1/2 bath in a quiet residential home on Lake Dunlap (the dam broke in May 2019 so the lake is low but good news, the dam has been repaired and the lake is expected to fill up by Summer 2023, at which point the lake will be more conducive to swimming). Photos taken March of 2020 reflect the water level at that time. The dock is also a great place to relax and enjoy a glass of wine or your morning coffee. There is also a canoe for your enjoyment!

Christmas Holiday

I love staying at this house. It had plenty of room for our large family. The house was very clean. The property was very well manicured. Enjoyed having the water right outside the house. We stayed here for a Christmas holiday and they even decorated the house for us. Would stay here again.

The location was fantastic- close to town but also the perfect distance away for some R&R. We enjoyed sitting by the lake and using the lily pad in shed to cool off during the heat of the day. The neighborhood was extremely friendly - we even made a friends or two during our stay!The house was beautiful- very clean- plenty of items provided.Check in / out was a breeze. We would recommend this house for a relaxing family getaway 😀

Amazing trip!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had an amazing time staying at this house for our end of Summer family vacation. Before arriving, I had some questions and the management company (New Braunfels Escapes) was very quick to respond and very nice, helpful. The house has a perfect layout for large groups (We had 10 people). There's plenty of space for everyone to be comfortable. It's a really pretty house in a great location. We floated the Comal River twice and went to Schlitterbaun - each about a 10 minute drive. It was great being right on the water so the kids could fish and swim.

Very Nice Property!!!

Great property. 3 beautiful rooms with great beds, bathroom facilities, and the AC works very well. Cozy little backyard right off the river with great back porch seating. Firepit was a huge plus. 2 grills that provided all we needed. Just a few miles from great restaurants, Texas Tubes, Rockin R, Gruehne Hall, and all the area has to offer. Great stay. Highly recommend this place if you are taking your family or friends to the river.

Super cute house in a great location

We rented this property for a girls trip weekend of shopping in New Braunfels. House was super cute and clean. It was nicely decorated. The fire pit is awesome at the end of the day! It was winter so we didn’t get in the river or use any of the water equipment. I would definitely stay here again. It is probably better for friends not couples since the rooms all have two beds in them.

Good communication. Easy check in through text. The house was so lovely and clean, beautiful backyard deck to sit and look at the sparkling lake. We had a great time! We checked in around 4pm Friday. Hung out on the lake for a bit, we tied floats to the dock. We didn’t feel like cooking so had pizza delivered. Saturday we went to the farmers market in San Marcos then ate lunch at Ivar’s river pub which had a great view of the river and the food was yummy. Then we spent the rest of the day hanging out on the lake behind the house and made fajitas on the grill for dinner. Sunday we floated the river then came back and made s’mores. We had no issues during our stay. Truly had a wonderful time with friends!

Weekend getaway

This property is so cute! We loved hanging out on the lake. They had plenty of things to keep us entertained. Love that the owners provided lots of water activities Ex: slip and slide, tubes, life jackets, canoe, and my kids LOVED the floating foam mat/lily pad. The kitchen is awesome! Lots of room for cooking. And we loved the giant walk in showers. Very nice property. Would love to visit again!
