    Great property, location is excellent, but it's time to invest in new bedding/mattresses. At this price point, a comfortable bed should be provided. Also, kitchen pots/pans ned a big upgrade.Otherwise, a great experience

    The location was great but the bathrooms were so outdated the shower head was like a sprinkle hard to get hair clean. I don’t think the bathroom has been improved since the 70’s. It was pretty bad. The deck, as well was big but it was dirty and could use a good power wash and cleaning. Spiderwebs and just dingy. Could be so much nicer.

    Nice place for girls weekend. Didn’t care much for the stairs inside the resident, but everything very nice. We enjoyed sitting on the deck around the fire pit just visiting. Thank you for your hospitality.

    We had an amazing vacation with the family. Group of 13 including lots of little kids and everyone had a blast. Location of the home is unbeatable, river access was perfect. The outdoor setting was perfect. Very comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, and the communication with host was great. Highly recommend!

    This house is great. Sleeps 14 very comfortably. I will be honest was worried about 2 bathrooms for 14 people but was never an issue. Everyone is on their own time when on the Comal. We had 1 issue, I reached out to the owners who quickly replied. It was taken care of and everyone still enjoyed the night. The breezeway is great for sitting at a table to eat out of the sun when you are dripping wet from the river. The deck is amazing looking down on all that are floating by. I am looking forward to returning next year or if our party size changes will look at their other properties.
