Perched above the banks of the Guadalupe River in Seguin, TX, this bright, updated duplex offers comforts of home with a surplus of amenities, a great location to explore Central Texas. River access through backyard. Fire pit & hammock included. Sleeps 5 (surcharge for 5th guest).
Our Lake Placid returned to being the Guadalupe River after dam failure October 2021. The exposed riverbed is expansive and rogue with greenery during most seasons, but we maintain a cleared path to the water for our guests. Bring a fishing rod and/or river shoes, and you can have a wonderful time. Or stay on the banks to relax in the hammock or roast marshmallows by the fire pit (s'mores sticks included). **Please read photo captions as a few depict previous water level as well as current condition of river bed.

Nice and clean.
We were very impressed with the accommodations. Everything we needed was at our fingertips. The duplex was clean & as shown in the pictures. Great location. Laura sent an online guidebook, so to speak, with restaurants & places of interest, this was definitely a huge help. We will definitely be back!
It was great! Super clean, super attentive. I had to add two extra days and the process was super easy! It’s a beautiful property! The river was amazing it was overall a wonderful experience! We will be back!
It was a nice little home away from home. The house was right on the river for us to enjoy some fishing. We caught quite a few small bass and pirch. Our 4 year old son caught his first fish. The house was clean and the perfect size for us to relax on our get away. They even had books and a few toys geared just for our little guy when we were inside. Thank you for having us!
Great find in the heart of the Hill country snuggld between San Marcos, New Braunfels and Greuene. Very peaceful. There was water in the lake. However, we did not swim. The duplex is extremely clean and well-kept and Laura provides everything you really need to enjoy your stay. One suggestion I might make is perhaps putting a screen for the siding glass door that locks in case you have small children, but that way you can feel the breeze come in from the water Thank you so much!
This was a great home base to check out the towns between San Antonio and Austin. And a nice relaxing home to return to at night. Hosts responded quickly to any questions.
We had a pleasant stay but we were visiting family nearby, and only returned to the property to shower and sleep. Beds were comfortable and plenty of blankets, thankfully.
This is a very cute and clean property, stocked with all the essentials and more, plus a convenient location. We were a short drive from both San Antonio and New Braunfels, giving us lots of great options for things to do. The outside area looked like it would be very enjoyable. We did not get the chance to use is sadly because the weather was terrible during our stay. Laura was very quick to respond with any questions we had. Definitely recommend staying here. We hope to come back when the weather is better.
This property backs up to a river, has a nice back deck area, covered parking for one vehicle. The inside has two bedrooms, one bath, laundry, kitchen and den. Very nice, clean and stocked with amenities. Everything is labeled for ease of locating items and storage. The property owners are a lovely couple and we had wonderful communication with them. Would definitely recommend staying here!!!
Family members came from Washington, Idaho, and Florida to attend a wedding. The retreat was ideal for our situation. Everything was clean and adequate for our needs. Getting the lake restored will be ideal addition. Loved our time there. Aaron
Price was fabulous, house was pretty and clean. Very peaceful, loved the labels on doors and cabinets. Laura was attentive and helpful. My friend was disappointed there was no river/lake to relax by, as she expected from pictures. It was a very relaxing stay nonetheless!
We loved it! Nice and relaxing place to stay and close to other cities. Rental was equipped with everything we needed. Laura was super sweet and very helpful! Hope to be back soon.
Great house
Laura was what every guest dreams of in a host: solicitous, caring, quick follow-up, clear directions, and helpful. She even texted me to demonstrate her gratitude for how we left her home. Everything in the home was clean and while we did not go to the river, we knew that that remained an option. In summary, our stay at Guadalupe River Getaway was incredible! In the words of Shakespeare, I can no other answer make but thanks, and thanks, and ever thanks!
This property was really amazing! It was very clean and tidy when we arrived, the AC was a bit hot and when I called the owner, Mrs. Laura, she was very curious and helped me fix it in less than 5 minutes. Overall we were very satisfied and would love to come back.
