Photos and Description of the New Braunfels vacation cottage rental 2 bedrooms + den / 1 shower, efficiency kitchenette, sleeps 4

Beautiful secluded Cottage sitting high up in the towering oaks overlooking the cool Guadalupe River in historic Gruene Texas. Perfect size for small families or couples. Highlights include a private deck overlooking the water; easy access to a floating pier not accessible to the public, which is great for fishing, sunbathing, or just the best people-watching around; river tubing, rafting. Excellent fishing waters with a fish cleaning table right on the banks of the property. A shopper's paradise, the historic town of Gruene supplies a seemingly endless choice of quaint, regional vendors to satisfy your shopping habit! Live entertainment, dining, and Hill Country night life are within walking distance. And if you're up for a short drive, San Antonio is just 20 minutes away and Austin is only 35 minutes away.

Situated conveniently between San Antonio (20 min drive) and Austin (35 min drive), Gruene Oaks Lodge is in heart of the historic town of Gruene, Texas. Easy access to major attractions such as Schlitterbahn Water Park in New Braunfels (5 min drive); Sea World San Antonio, Six Flags Fiesta Texas, the Alamo, and the River Walk in San Antonio (20-30 min drives); and the Live Music Capital of the World, Austin (35 min drive). Within 1.1 miles walking (or rafting/tubing!) distance from Gruene Oaks Lodge, enjoy water activities, shopping, antiquing, dining, live music, dancing and Hill-Country-Style night life at Texas' oldest dance hall, Gruene Hall. With private access to the Guadalupe Riverfront, Gruene Oaks Lodge guests can float the river in rafts or inner tubes rented from any of the many local purveyors. Float for about an hour-and-a-half with this exclusive access, or enter the river further up-stream with the general public for a 4-8 hour float, depending on water flow levels.

We just spent the most romantic and refreshing weekend at this property. Very well maintained. It was just what the doctor ordered. I would recommend this property to anyone needing to recharge and reconnect. Will definetly stay here again. Thank you to the owners for sharing this most special place.

Check out charges

Gary W. United States
Review Submitted: July 8, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
We stayed here and had a great time. We said we would like to return for another trip.
Unfortunately, after we checked out, they charged us to replace their sheets. they said there was a stain that they couldn't get out. when we left we took the sheets off the bed and there weren't any stains. We contacted the property manager and tried to resolve the situation. The sheets they were replacing were ruff and itchy. maybe 300 thread count. They charged us $50.00 bucks to replace what was maybe a $20.00 set of sheets (twin bed). i offered to purchase new ones and ship them to the property but they prefered to charge us the $50.00 stating that they had to find a certain thread count sheet. We were upset to find out that they wouldn't work with us to resolve the situation. This was a bogus charge and we wouldn't stay here again knowing how they treat you after check out.

Great Place & Location!

Shaka403 Dickinson, Tx
Review Submitted: May 12, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
We stayed 3 nights in the cottage and really enjoyed it. It is decorated very nicely and everything was clean and new looking. The location is amazing. Right on the river and seriously about a 3 minute drive to downtown Gruene. We had a really fun time on the property relaxing in the river, BBQing, and just sitting on the deck enjoying the view. The only thing that I would say is a con is that there is no stove top, but not a big deal...we knew that before we came and just cooked everything on the grill. I will DEFINITELY stay there again, and would recommend it to a friend! Thanks Michelle for a great stay, and for your friendly correspondence.

Relaxing and scenic vacation

Parita Houston, TX
Review Submitted: May 8, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
My fiance and I stayed at the cottage for 3 nights in May 2009 and had an amazing time! The cottage is very cute and well maintained. The masterbed is very comfortable. The best part is the view of the river and nature from the back porch and the private pier. This is a place we'll be coming back to!

Rally on the River - Relax at Gruene Oaks Lodge

emiesmom Dallas, TX, USA
Review Submitted: May 5, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
FABULOUS is the best description for our stay at the Gruene Oaks Lodge! We had a wonderful 3 night stay! The cottage accomodations were very nice! My only wish was that the only bathroom was not in the master bedroom. The grounds are also beautiful and the place is extremely well maintained! We are already planning our next trip back!
