Amazing location and amenities
We had the best time at the Fun Casita in Gruene! The property was beautiful and well furnished, but it didn’t compare to the river access and water amenities. We spent much of our trip sitting on chairs in the water watching the tubers and the wildlife. The bonus was the location which allowed us to walk to all of the restaurants, shopping, and entertainment areas. I highly recommend this casita!

Weekend in Gruene
Wonderful property with incredible access to both the river and Greene’s town center. We didn’t need to drive anywhere once we arrived except to the wedding we were in Gruene to attend.

Happy, BUT NOT
I would like to submit a response to a situation with my daughter. I was out of the casita, enjoying the river and I received a text from my daughter. She frantically texted me that a man came into our casita while she was in the shower. He yelled at her to turn her music down. The music was coming from her iPhone while in the shower. I think this was very inappropriate because it scared her. I feel a text or phone call would have been more appropriate. Renting does not give one the right to barge into a room.

Short Visit
This was a quick trip to Gruene on a Friday. The ability to book one night and not two or more was critical. It is easy walking distance to all Gruene venues, very clean, comfortable and pleasant place to stay. I noticed that river access, bbq pits, fire places, kayaks and more are available. We will return again when it's warmer. :)

Adorable Gruene Location on the River
We had a girls’ trip there, and it was awesome! The place was really cute and had everything we needed. It was a close walk to Gruene Hall and down to the river. I would stay there again and highly recommend it!

We chose to stay here based on all the positive reviews we read online and I have to say that our experience surpassed the best of these reviews! This is a beautiful property with spectacular access to the Guadalupe river and downtown Gruene! Perfect place for a weekend getaway, and we hope to maybe one day stay even longer!

Perfection!
This could not have been better. Resort status! The casita was spotless, stocked with everything you could need, and beautiful. We felt so safe and comfortable here. And my God! The river access! We had such a great time relaxing by the river, and paddle boarding/floating around during the day, then walking to Gruene Hall at night to watch our friend play a show. This really couldn’t have been more perfect. Can’t wait to book our next trip!!

Excellent Gruene Hall stay
This property is in easy walking distance to Gruene Hall. All furnishing (linens, towels, etc.) and finishes (counters, floors, cabinets) are all very luxurious. The casita is perfect for those like me not interested in cooking with mini fridge and microwave. TVs are setup with hulu and Netflix if you want to unwind after the show! Couldn't have asked for a better place to stay.

Very cozy and great location. An easy walk into town. Did not have to drive once while being here. There's a nice walk down to the private river access behind the property.. but being that it is December did not use any of the river amenities during our stay. We will be back!

Perfect Location, comfy beds!
What a perfect spot to stay while exploring Gruene and New Braunfels! The Cassita had all the amenities and a wonderful porch to sit and talk. But the best part was the beds. Even the trundle bed couch was so comfy. We all had a great afternoon/evening then came back to an excellent night sleep. Our host were kind and accommodating! Thank you for letting us stay in your cozy little haven.
