New Braunfels, Texas
Welcome to the Honeymoon Cabin at the The Guadalupe River Road Retreat! We have three additional cabins (VRBO codes 7914761, 9451823, and 2016286) sharing six beautiful acres of Guadalupe river frontage, where guests are free to wander the park like setting under the shade of majestic oaks, pecans, and cypress trees. Enjoy fantastic views of the Guadalupe river from cabin decks and bench swings, take a nap in a hammock, relax and cook smores at our firepits, or play tennis day or night on our newly resurfaced tennis court, and of course spend time in and on the river!
Our retreat differs from many of the rental options on the river. We cater to families, couples, reunions and small groups who want a tranquil environment and wish to avoid the rowdy crowds and party cabins. We limit group sizes to what the cabins can comfortably accommodate, and we enforce our property rules regarding day guests, loud music, and disorderly conduct. If you are looking for an oasis on the river, a place where you can have fun but also relax in comfort, peace, and privacy, Guadalupe River Road Retreat is the place for you!
General info.
The Guadalupe River Road Retreat is located at 8910 River Road between the second and third crossing, halfway between Gruene and Canyon Lake, and is accessible via an electric gate (code provided upon booking).
We have two river access points, a concrete dock with steps down, or via a natural path down to a sitting area under the canopy of two massive cypress trees. Across the river from the property is a unique limestone expanse carved by the river where guests frequently enjoy hanging out, playing in the water, and watching the toobers float by.
There are multiple river outfitters within a short distance of the property, with the closest being Mountain Breeze which is less than a quarter mile from our access gate.
Gruene Texas, famous for its shops, restaurants, and the historic Gruene Dance Hall, is only nine miles (15 to 20 minutes south of our location). Sattler, where guests can find a small grocery store, gas, and other necessities, is only five miles (approximately 13 minutes) to the north.
Great getaway
The cabin was just as represented. Perfect location off of beautiful River Road. Wonderful Hosts. We would stay again
My husband and I stayed at this property and felt it was the perfect find. The hosts were welcoming and so nice. We walked down to the water, set up our chairs and enjoyed the floaters passing. I highly recommend any of their rentals on this property.
The property was a delightful find the cozy cabin had everything we needed . Host was great and accomadating.
Wonderful host, great place.
The hosts were so friendly and had so many thoughtful personal touches that made us feel welcome! The cabin was clean and updated and adorable with everything we needed, and the river access was perfect! We loved the trees and shade and animals! It was such a great getaway and we will be back!
Location is amazing. Just a min walk from the river. Cabin was furnished with everything you could possibly need. The host even provided supplies to make s’more’s!! This is the cleanest rental we have stayed in. We will absolutely return!!
The property and hosts were amazing. The house had everything you could need for a lovely weekend. Great views and wildlife on property. Just a really great place to visit. Will go back!
Grounds & spot on the river are breathtaking! It was wonderful waking up listening to the river & the birds & the surrounding nature. Cabin was cute, quaint & had everything that we needed. Carlton & Laura are wonderful hosts. Highly recommended!!
If you're looking for a quiet get away look no further. Quaint, beautiful and roomy home for 2 with full kitchen and walk-in shower. And don't forget to bring your tubes and river chairs. The calming waters of the Guadalupe await you out the back porch and a short walk down the stone steps for easy access to and a relaxing day on the river. There are also plenty of chairs to sit in just above the river bank. Enjoy your meals on the large back porch while watching the birds at the bird feeders and listening to the flow of the river below. There's plenty of room to take a walk around the beautiful tree covered property. And the wildlife come out at night! While enjoying supper on the porch we saw 2 foxes, a raccoon, and later a group of deer who come out to feed at night. Owners Laura and Carlton are also raising some ducks you can even enjoy visiting with up close. If you need anything during your stay, Laura and Carlton are just a stone's throw away on the property. If they don't have what you need or forgot, they can tell you where to get it nearby. They were great and friendly hosts. So glad we found this beautiful place. We will definitely be going back again and again. Linda M. Stayed May 2023
Closed to the river, The house had everything you needed .
My husband and I needed a place to decompress, and this was the absolute perfect place! We could not have asked for better host. Thank you for making us feel and know we were welcomed.
Warm welcome by hosts including detailed information about the property and area. Cell service is not great but WiFi provided was excellent. The cleanest rental we have been to, and we have been to dozens this year. The wildlife on the property made it feel like you were in your own animal sanctuary. Water access was perfect, but the property also allowed tons of shade. Beautiful spot for morning coffee and a day full of fun on the river. We already want to come back!
Rental experience A++. Property shows owners pride & we can't wait for our next trip. Too many wonderful things to mention....you will not be disappointed if you're looking for a peaceful getaway by booking this precious cabin.
Great experience. Owner was lovely and the cabin was super clean and well taken care of.
Peaceful little spot with a river front view. Nice place to relax on the patio. Cute little creatures everywhere. Really enjoyed it
Carlton & his wife were exceptional property owners, they provided many things to feel at home & even aired up our river float daily! The atmosphere & cabin were located perfectly where we love to be on River Road. We can’t wait to book again & come!! Thank y’all for treating us so well!
This property was nothing short of amazing. The owners were so helpful and kind. The place was clean, family friendly, cozy,quiet, ect. The spot on the river was perfect for lounging, swimming, fishing, and just hanging out. The wildlife on the property is beautiful. 10/10 will be staying again & bringing back our family.
