Summer Vacation

The property was beautiful, with a great view of the river. The house very clean and was a perfect fit for our family stay. Communication with the property host was excellent and very prompt. Any questions I had were responded to immediately. Looking forward to returning for another stay in the near future.

Love this river house!

We absolutely loved our stay at this river house. Our favorite part was the patio and view. It's situated in the perfect spot and never got too hot (the ceiling fans were a huge plus). The condo had everything we needed: a huge kitchen with a bunch of cookware and a living room that was big enough to comfortably seat our group. I love when vrbos actually have enough seating for the amount of guests. Our only improvements would be to invest in better mattresses and have a few lamps so that the overhead lighting isn't the only option. Would absolutely stay here again.

Perfect location on the river.

This property is amazing. We stay on the river at a different property every year and this one is in our top two. Plenty of utensils, plates, silver and cups. Comfy beds. Nice showers. Great BBQ pit and best of all, the river access is legit. if you wanna sit in the shallow water, hit up the left of the "beach". Want deeper? Hit up the right. Great people watching on Labor day but not too busy to get on my nerves. I highly recommend this location for anyone looking for a great time at the river. Thank you very much for allowing us to stay.

This was my third stay at this property and every trip is even better than the last! Can’t beat the private beach front access to the river and the great people we meet every year staying at other houses. Always a great time!

We had a party of 8 guests and it accommodated us perfectly! The condo was clean and very nice. The property is right next to the river and is a great place to hang out. It is also very close to places to eat a different places to drop in for tubing! We will be rebooking for next year! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Amazing Getaway - Great Views! Lots to do!

This area of the Guadalupe River off of River Road in New Braunfels is a gorgeous area! Cabin #1 at Cliff View Condominiums is riverfront with a perfect view of the cliff and river below. The upper porch is large, covered, and has great seating options. We loved the addition of the porch swing and lights on the lower deck - these features were unique to cabin #1 and we felt so spoiled! We also loved the grassy yard, which is elevated from the river area - the kids could run & play and throw the football. Wildlife was abundant! We loved seeing so many vultures, hawks, songbirds, tons of red cardinals, and fish. The owner provides floats for the rivers (THANK YOU!), which the kids thoroughly enjoyed. The section of river in front of the condos is perfect - it has shallow areas with beautiful rocks where the river runs and rushes, moving very freely - great for wading - as well as calmer, deeper areas where you can have a more serious swim. Fishing is excellent here too - they stock the river with trout year round! As for the condo, the rooms are comfortable and we loved that one room has 2 bunk beds - perfect for families with kids. The sectional in the living area is VERY comfortable - reclining seats with plenty of room for 8 people to sit and watch T.V. The bathrooms and kitchen are very nice - updated fixtures & counters, with good pots & pans and all the things you need. We had an issue with the freezer opening (it was frozen shut) when we first arrived and the owner called us back within 15 minutes, so he's very responsive. There were no rentals before our check-in, so he graciously approved our request to arrive earlier on our check-in day, which we very much appreciated. Can't say enough about this amazing gem of a place! We would love to return!
