REDUCED RATES FOR WURSTFEST ARE FOR ONE-SIDE ONLY OF THE DUPLEX for 4 guests or less. If you have more I can send you an edited price that you would have to approve.

If you need BOTH SIDES of the duplex for a larger group, consider my other property up river from the Rio Duplex.

My other duplex is GuadalupeRiverDuplex and it is only 1 mile upriver from the RioRatonDuplex.





ALL summer weekends are THURSDAY at 5pm to SUNDAY at noon. You must rent BOTH sidesof the duplex for 16 or less on all SUMMER weekends and all SUMER WEEKENDS must include Thursday to Sunday from May 1 to September 30. Of course you can book more days before Thursday and/or more days after Sunday as long as it includes Thurs-Sun.

If your dates aren't available at this duplex, be sure to check my other duplex on this vacay website. The GuadalupeRiverDuplex is listing #452715 and is available for large groups.

Memorial Weekend is THURS-MON for $3,400 + tax and cleaning. Fourth of July is any 4-night for $4,200 + tax and cleaning. Labor Day Weekend is FRI-Mon for $3,100 + tax and cleaning

WEEKNIGHTS are two-night minimum and always start on Sunday at 5pm if Sunday is available. I will not approve a 2-night stay starting on Monday if Sunday night is available. Please understand that I won't approve a 2-night stay for Monday and Tuesday nights, effectively making Sunday and Wednesday nights unrentable. If you include a 3-weeknight stay, then I would approve regardless if you checkin Sunday or Monday.

The FLOOR PLAN for the ENTIRE house is as follows:
2 bedrooms have 1 queen bed each, 2 lofts have 1 queen bed each and 2 bedrooms have 2 full-size beds each. There is a queen sleeper/sofa in each of the 2 great rooms and of course there are 2 complete kitchens and 2 nice bathrooms. You can rent only ONE-SIDE for half of the above listed rooms/beds/baths/greatrooms/etc. on summer weeknights and anytime during the off-season.

The Rio Raton Duplex is at 6780 River Road outside the city limits of New Braunfels. We are directly at Second Crossing.

This part of the GUADALUPE RIVER is the prime tubing section of the river. New Braunfels silly beer and can restriction laws DO NOT APPLY anywhere on this area of the Guadalupe.

I have TWO DUPLEXES about 1 mile apart on River Road. One is the RioRatonDuplex and other is the GuadalupeRiverDuplex listing #452715. They are both RIVERFRONT on the MAIN TUBING part of the Guadalupe River.

There are tube, raft, and other rental outfitters within walking distance of the duplex. Although most of our guests float and/or tube the Guadalupe, Schlitterbahn is also close by in New Braunfels and Six Flags/Fiesta Texas is a short drive to San Antonio as well as Natural Bridge Caverns, Wild Animal Park and the “Dirty Jobs” famous New Braunfels Snake Farm.

The Tanger Outlet Mall is 25 minutes away in San Marcos, There is Gruene Hall just down the road in Gruene, Texas as well as the monthly Gruene Market Days and Wimberly, Texas.

The Rio Raton Duplex is right at the “second crossing” on River Road about halfway to Canyon Lake. The lake has numerous parks and boat ramps for boats and jet skis.

    We love staying with this host as this was our second time and we were really excited. The property is beautiful and we would have rated this 5 stars however the duplex’s seemed like they were not cleaned before we arrived. One of the toilets had black mold in it and group members had to scrub the toilet upon arrival. Sheets throughout both complexes had stains and hairs all over them as well. We’re a relaxed bunch so it was fine for the stay but we were pretty bummed with the cleanliness of this place as we did not have this issue our first stay. Overall, we had a great weekend though and loved the beautiful home/property. Hosts were awesome upgrading us to their other property with more land for our dogs to hang out and we really appreciated that.

    I'll start by saying if we needed to rent a place again, we would definitely consider this one! Any cons did not outweigh the pros by any means. We rented both sides for a stay with extended family! Great owner communication!So much deck space! River access was amazing, some shallow & some deep spots. You can float down to some small rapids & a rope swing. Outdoor shower was awesome!These homes have 2 big dining tables & having 2 kitchens with that many people was a plus. They were stocked with more than we expected & everything we needed.The bathrooms were well stocked also. We did not run out of bath towels & having a full bar of soap & shampoo was great.There are lots of beds & bedrooms! 7 out of the 8 beds were perfect, not too hard/too soft, all pillows & blankets we needed. The 8th bed was ok for 1 person to sleep in but awful for 2. We immediately sunk to the middle but piled 2-3 pillows in the middle & were able to sleep half decent. The lofts were comfortable but you are subject to any light from the outside. Being right across from a campground, lights were on all night & the loft balcony is a railing, not a half wall. We hung a blanket on the rail & blocked some of the lights. The bed here was comfortable enough that we got sleep despite the light. We were able to keep the late sleepers in one unit & the early risers in another. The negatives we found: no laundry, missing grate on 1 BBQ pit, lots of dust on the walls, mold on a few vents, & the 8th bed.

    Everything was clean and ready for us to have a great weekend getaway. Stairs down to river could use some attention but all was good

    We really enjoyed our stay. The house is in a great location. Also just across the river from a shuttle to take us up river for our float. We will stay again.
