Weekend Getaway
My husband and I stayed Saturday- Monday. We really loved our stay. We stayed in the top floor and we felt like we had full privacy. I would love to rent out the whole unit for our family in the future. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating. I would 100% stay here again. The location is really close to downtown Gruene. Very easy to go back and forth. Very much enjoyed our stay!

Ideal spot for a Gruene getaway!
This accommodation is located in a neighborhood very near Gruene, TX. Although not a riverfront property, it is very close to both Gruene and New Braunfels for easy access to tubing, restaurants, shopping and excellent dining. It is so well designed and decorated it provides an upscale but comfortable stay. Kathleen and Greg are excellent hosts and have thought of everything. The house is in their backyard (a beautiful setting!) has ample well marked parking and both the upstairs and downstairs are connected by an interior door should you need the space of both rentals. There is nice, shady outdoor space to enjoy with a firepit, beautiful plants and a small dining area. There are bbq pits should you want to grill and a kitchenette with hotplate and small refrigerator. We enjoyed coffee on the porch in the morning watching the hummers zoom by! We will be back for sure.

We really enjoyed our stay at the River Haven Guest House! The house was perfect for the three of us and the little town of Gruene was a memorable setting for our Texas cousin trip. Thank you for your hospitality and we look forward to visiting again soon!

Lovely stay
The entire experience was great, starting from BEFORE I booked. Kathy answered all the questions I had and kept communication open. The apartments are cozy, clean and well cared for. Kathy and Greg add special touches like cold water in the icebox and snacks. The outside of the property was the perfect place to sit and enjoy coffee in the morning with the deer and Hummingbirds and relax in the evening with a glass of wine. Very good location, we walked to Gruene Hall (however it is country road so use caution) and was a short drive anywhere we wanted to go. We will stay here again!
