PROPERTY HISTORY:

Embrace the living legacy of this perfectly imperfect home's rich history. One of the original German family homesteads, this property dates back to the 1800s and is conveniently located by Market Plaza (the location of settlers' tent shows to buy, sell, and trade produce and wares). Market Plaza is a 0.7-acre park with trees, two benches, and a drinking fountain, and it is the ideal spot to walk your dog or watch the roaming neighborhood deer.

The current owner's connection to the property dates back over 40 years. Their love for New Braunfels and passion for its German roots are evident throughout the home.

Super convenient, fun neighborhood
We were here for a long weekend before school started. We REALLY enjoyed how convenient it was to tubing, dinner, and even the oldest bakery in Texas. Our mornings were delighted by delicious fresh pastries each day. We brought our dog, who romped in the park across the street. The house is charming and well kept, but kind of small and quirky. We had a delightful conversation with the owner/manager about our departure. It was a really nice stay in a fun little town. We will be back!

Wonderful house in perfect location
I was able to get our family of six together for a short vacation before kids went back to college. This house was a perfect place to stay. Well furnished and very clean. The location is perfect! 15 minute walk to entry point of river and 15 minute walk back from the last river exit. 3 minute walk to excellent restaurants. Also fun to see all the deer.

Great stay for thanksgiving!
We stayed in this lovely house to visit family for the holiday. It had a quirky layout with plenty of space and nooks for people to hang out in. It was walking distance to everything we needed, like naeglin’s bakery. Only wish there were some extra warm blankets as New Braunfels gets chilly in November.

Great location!
Overall our stay was very nice. The beds (especially the pullouts) are not comfortable so sadly we didn’t sleep well but this was our only downside. The location if you plan to float the river is incredible. We walked 50ft and were at 444 tubing. We also were able to walk downtown. The only time we needed an Uber was to dinner. There were more than plenty of towels and paper towels, soap, etc. which was wonderful. Such a cute house with so much history and we had deer in our backyard and front yard every morning. The only reason I wouldn’t give this property five stars is because of the pullout beds/mattresses. Other than that the property was amazing, the manager of the property was very sweet, and the house was a perfect size for seven girls. Thank you so much!! We can’t wait to come back and float again!

Wonderful location
Very nice spacious home! Great location. Only recommendation I have is maybe build a cute little bunk bed in the middle section with the little kids table, as the glass desk isn’t really needed when you have the desk in the sunroom. But that’s just an idea! Lovely time here!

Weird Weekend Stay
You’re paying for location with this one. It’s just blocks away from downtown and from most of the tube companies. Parts of the house were cute, and it was a pretty comfortable stay. What wasn’t great were the upwards of five roaches, both dead and alive, that we shared the home with. As well as the spiders. Additionally, the house is just straight up old and probably in need of a lot of repairs and refurbishments. One side of the house seems to fully slant downwards to the right (you can really tell in the hall that leads from the kitchen and the back bedroom). In that same back right bedroom, the wall is completely pulling away from the baseboard. It’s very hard to wash your face in the bathroom because the mirror has a large shelf that juts out so far you smack your head into it when you lean over. So your options are just drenching yourself and the floor in water. The layout of the home is bizarre, and as a previous review mentions, the headboard in one of the bedrooms is up against a door the leads into another bedroom and you can hear everything everyone is saying. And while we had no issues with any of the house rules, they were so aggressively repeated on every single piece of paperwork we received or signed and then also listed on the fridge, that we 100% thought we would be charged a fine for simply existing and it became a bit of a running joke. I know this is definitely because of people who come to New Braunfels to party hard in the river, there aren’t rules like this without people who have broken them to begin with. It was just A LOT for six 30-somethings who just wanted to sleep and shower and not get charged $50 for forgetting to put the trash can on the street. Anyway. It was a fine place to sleep at night.

Nice location
There were bugs in the bathtub but maybe you can't avoid that. It just wasn't reassuring on arrival. Also the master bedroom is connected to the guest bedroom by a door which is blocked off by the bed and covered with a quilt. So sound travels easily between the two bedrooms. Wouldnt stay there again.

Quaint house walking distance to downtown
The house was rather large! The charcoal grill was great to have, the patio was screened in to keep mosquitoes away. We walked to the center of NB in less than 10 mins. Also walking distance to schlitterbahn water park. My family and I enjoyed our stay there. The beds were comfy, but bring extra pillows if you need more than one. Plenty of hot water for 6 people. The kitchen was stocked with basic necessities so don’t forget your salt n pepper like us. Would recommend.
