Great place to stay

This was a great place to stay. Most of our group works at/owns a music venue so the decor was amazing. I think there was something like 14 signed guitars in the unit. Everything was very clean. Would definitely stay here again.

Hard Rock River Resort

Our ‘Hard Rock River Resort’ stay in New Braunfels was great! Larry and Mary have their place set up so cool. They have a dozen or more signed guitars and other rock decor that made it special for us classic rock fanatics. We had all the amenities and being right on the river was nice. Amazing yard views. Wish we could have stayed longer. We were there for Schlitterbahn and were very close. Next time we’ll walk to the water park and save the lot fees. We highly recommend the stay.

This place Rocks!

This was a gorgeous condo with amazing attention to detail. It was so clean and well maintained that it looked brand new. The decor made you feel like you were in a Hard Rock Cafe with 17 guitars signed by the artists, including, Cyndi Lauper, 38 Special, and my favorite...Styx. The TV in the main room had to be 80" or more with free access to Netflix and Hulu. The grounds were fantastic with two pools on site, hot tubs and great views/access to the Guadalupe River. Right at the river entry there is a quiet wading pool away from the main river with places to sit to enjoy a cold beer or evening cocktail. The location couldn't be better; just a few blocks away from the Schlitterbahn and minutes to downtown New Braunfels and Gruene with all the fantastic food and shopping you could ask for. Mary and Larry were great hosts and made sure everything was ready for our check-in. We'll definitely be back again!

Rocking good time

We were excited about our Hard Rock Condo, but never expected what we walked into. 1st off, the TV's!! Haha. The boys were in heaven!! We debated the entire trip over how large they could be. The owners left no corner without a rocking suprise. Another suprise were the deer all around us daily! So fun. Everything was perfect. Excellent communication with seller. Their recommendations were spot on. This is a must! We will be back soon! Oh. Beds super comfy too!! Rock on!

Make a memory by booking this rock themed flat! So many signed guitars (maybe 18?!) cool furniture, but the amp-fridge is the most creative. Stay & treat it with care.

Hard Rock River condo Rock!

This condo is in a great location for all that NB/Gruene has to offer. It is close to the water park, restaurants, exit points from the river, the fairgrounds, and Gruene. The guitars and other rock-themed decorations are very unique and really cool. The unit was clean and spacious, and Larry was quick to respond when we had an issue with internet connectivity. This condo is an ideal spot for a family or small group of friends to spend the weekend and enjoy New Braunfels!
