This was a beautiful home with plenty of space for a large group. The backyard has amazing sun rises and many options for gatherings. I was impressed with the communication of Grand Welcome New Braunfels. They were helpful and quick to respond. We highly recommend this home for your next stay.

Beautiful home but did not have sheets on the bed or pillows which was concerning. They only had two bath towels in the primary bedroom and no more, not sure how you can advertise for 12 people with two towels available. The heat was not on when we got there, it was freezing, 62 degrees in the house. They had to send someone out because it was never switched over to heat in the house. We ended up leaving early due to the bed situation. We checked all the cabinets and closets and there was none to be found. Home is beautiful and so is the yard. Also, we expected to use the hot tub in the backyard, but it had no water and they said it’s not heated anyway when I asked the day before we arrived.

This home is absolutely stunning! So much space, comfortable beds, and lots of space! Really great layout, and the pool house was just as spacious and comfortable! The only CONS I experienced was the fact that I did not have control over the AC thermostat which was extremely frustrating. I was first told it wouldn’t go below 70 when in fact it wouldn’t go below 72, regardless, for what I paid for the accommodations I don’t think that I should be expected to keep the AC at a degree I was uncomfortable with. Also, the pool is extremely small, this didn’t affect our stay but that’s the only thing that did not appear as it did in photos. I would definitely stay here again and the kitchen is stocked with all kinds of items that come in handy!

Our group loved our stay at this beautiful home! The house has a private feel while being in reasonable distance to the popular activities. It was clean and well stocked with any kitchen tools you could need. The pool was on the smaller side but it was well kept and a great addition! 100% would recommend.

The good: the house is super nice, big and clean. Plenty of room for everyone and the guest house is awesome. Check in is easy and location is perfect. The bad: the pool is tiny. Small enough that you can’t even swim in it, just enough to sit and get wet. The pool was also dirty and they shocked the pool right before we got there. So much chemical was in it that your skin would sting while in it and it discolored swim suits. The hot tub was broken and was told about it a couple hours before check in (a few dollars were refunded because of this but the hot tub is a major reason why we chose the house). Also someone was controlling the thermostat wirelessly which caused night 1 to be hot while we were sleeping (not cool).

Thank you for staying with us and for taking the time to leave a review. While we always strive to provide a great experience, it sounds like a few aspects didn’t align with your expectations. The pool is exactly as shown in our listing photos, so there shouldn’t have been any surprises in terms of its size—it’s intended more for relaxing than swimming laps. It’s also serviced every Friday by a third-party company. We don’t add chemicals ourselves. Since we weren’t made aware of any issues with your skin burning or your swimsuits being bleached during your stay, we didn’t have the opportunity to step in or contact the pool service about your concerns. Had we known, we could have possibly explored options for service recovery. As you stated, we did let you know ahead of time that the whirlpool would be inoperative and provided a partial refund for that inconvenience, which you accepted. As for the thermostat, no one controls it remotely. However, smart thermostats often have eco or sleep modes that adjust temperatures automatically, which may have been the case your first night. That setting is easily changeable by guests at any time. We appreciate you choosing to stay with us and would love the opportunity to host you again in the future.

Beautiful house and beautiful decor. Although we didn’t cook while we were there, the kitchen was gorgeous and well-stocked. The location was perfect for visiting Gruene, New Braunfels, San Antonio and the rivers. Lovely neighborhood with wild deer walking around. The property is large which makes you feel like you’re out in the country. The large back porch overlooking the pool was the perfect spot for coffee in the mornings.

We had a great stay at the property. It was a family trip and we made great use of the pool, kitchen, and bunk house. Plenty of space for all! The kitchen had so many appliances, utensils, and a great oven range. We also used to outdoor grill/kitchen area and that was great. Outdoor seating is beautiful. We were a little let down the hot tub was not usable and we were not notified prior to arriving. We arrived to a caution tape and dirty hot tub. It did not sound like it would be fixed any time soon either for future travelers. We also paid for early check in about 3 days prior. Would have been a nice courtesy to do this without a fee since there wasn’t a booking before us and I called with request. Once we arrived, our lock code did not work due to miscommunication about early check in even after the call and extra payment. We loved the Greune area which was about an easy 10 min drive. Great shops and restaurants. I would highly recommend this property!

The house was absolutely gorgeous, and we truly enjoyed our stay. However, I wanted to share a few issues we encountered during our visit.We were disappointed to find out the hot tub was unavailable, especially since we weren’t informed about this until I reached out. Additionally, we noticed a few broken items throughout the house. On our last day, the AC unit unfortunately stopped working. While I appreciated the quick response from the property management team and that someone was sent out, they weren’t able to resolve the issue that evening.That said, your team was very responsive and kind throughout, and we do appreciate the support. We would definitely consider booking with you again—just a few maintenance items that we hope will be addressed.
