Great Retreat Place

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: This house has a sister VRBO on the same property, so it was great for our young adult ministry retreat. They share a campfire, big yard, and they are beautifully maintained. We loved our time here!

Check in was super easy! They utilized a text system which I really liked. The house was perfect for my husband and our four boys. The room with all the bunk beds is where we all ended up sleeping because it had a tv (the master doesn’t). The kitchen has pretty much everything you’d need! You will need to grab your own salt and pepper but that wasn’t a big deal. We stayed 6 nights and had no issues. The river access was great and we had a blast! We would absolutely stay here again!

Great stay

I would have given 5 stars if the ac wouldn’t have been broken when we arrived. They did work hard to get repaired but it wasn’t repaired until almost 10pm. We didn’t unpack until it was repaired out of fear of having to move so most of our first day was waisted! Other than that we had a great stay and would definitely stay again!!

Wonderful stay!

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: Bunk room was actually more spacious than it appeared. Clean and basic necessities were available, and thankfully the propane tank had more than enough gas. River was across the street, a short walk away. Only wished pets were allowed since we missed our dogs, but it's understandable. Luckily, the other rental wasn't occupied and we had the firepit to ourselves which was nice (bring firewood), Im not sure how it would have went if we had to share the firepit with other people. No issues with communication. Def will be back.

Be Prepared to Buy Almost Everything

This place served it's purpose, but at a huge extra expense. "Fully stocked kitchen" must mean something different to these guys. There were lots of plates, silverware, and glassware. An assortment of pots, hardly any utensils to cook or serve with, and the ONLY thing they supplied was a half a pack of generic coffee filters and two of the cheapest rolls of paper towels ever. NO foil, no plastic wrap or ziplock bags, no salt or pepper, or spices at all, no sugar packets, nothing. The oven was broken and only half worked and they didn't even have a dish drainer. One of the main lights took like 30 seconds to come on after you flipped the switch, so I was afraid the place would catch on fire. The washer and dryer were in the main restroom and there was no laundry basket, so don't drop your clothes on the restroom floor. Of course, there was not any laundry soap or dryer sheets either. The BBQ pit had an empty propane tank and NO utensils to cook with. Fire pit, but no wood, lighter fluid, or matches. There was not even a broom or dust-pan, just an old school mop. I had to buy trash bags and toilet paper. Oooohh, and the "Cable TV" doesn't have local channels, so I had to subscribe to a service to watch the football game that I had invited everyone to come watch. Then, my 70 year old mother tripped over the 2 inch lip that separates the walkway from the driveway...and busted her butt good. When I reported it to the owner, he said "Well, there's nothing I can do about that, is there?". Very dangerous...and she wasn't even drinking. The "en suite bathroom" was tiny and awkward. The shower slopes, so water runs out on the floor, the tray to hold your shampoo slopes, so your bottles keep falling. I had to use towels to deal with both. There were lots of towels. The property served it's purpose for a family get-together and the fenced in yard kept the kids from running off, so it wasn't a horrible place to stay. I traveled over 2,000 miles to see my family and shouldn't have to pack my BBQ utensils, or foil, or laundry soap, or everything else. I won't go back and I won't stay at another "New Braunfels Escapes" location.
