Nestled on a hill overlooking the scenic Guadalupe River in New Braunfels, Texas, the Pecan Creek Cottage beckons you to a Texan oasis where the vacation vibes are as plentiful as the trout released into the river each year. This enchanting retreat is not just a vacation rental; it's a haven for those seeking a perfect blend of relaxation and excitement.

At the rear of the property, a sprawling deck adorned with ample seating invites you to bask in the warmth of the Texan sun. A grill and a fire pit beckon for lazy afternoons and evenings filled with laughter and the clinking of cold beers. A short stroll down a set of stone stairs leads you to the river's edge, where floating and wading become spontaneous adventures waiting to unfold.

The Pecan Creek Cottage is a symphony of Texan chic, seamlessly blending rustic charm with modern comfort. Step inside, and you'll find a living room adorned with cozy couches and a flat-screen television, setting the stage for relaxation after a day of river activities. The kitchen, equipped for quick breakfasts or elaborate family feasts, opens up to a dining area with a captivating view of the river. A window into the wet bar and lounge, complete with a stone fireplace, adds a touch of sophistication to your vacation home.

The master bedroom boasts a Tempurpedic King bed, ensuring a restful night's sleep with picturesque hill country views. The accompanying full bathroom exudes simplicity and chic elegance, offering the perfect sanctuary for unwinding after a day on the river. The second bedroom features a queen Tempurpedic bed, while a set of French doors reveal an additional full-sized futon for larger family gatherings. A second bathroom down the hall radiates a light and fresh ambiance.

Beyond the riverside haven, New Braunfels awaits with an array of activities to suit every taste. Explore the charming downtown area with its plethora of shops, restaurants, museums, and theaters. Dive into the waters of Landa Park, rent paddle boats, or enjoy a picnic. Embrace the thrill of Schlitterbahn Water Park or indulge in wine and beer tasting at local wineries and breweries. For music enthusiasts, Whitewater Amphitheater and River Road Ice House are just a short drive away.

Venture to Gruene, home to the historic Gruene Hall, where music and dancing captivate visitors. Delight your senses at the Gristmill Restaurant, perched alongside the Guadalupe River. Embark on an underground adventure at Natural Bridge Caverns or soar through the treetops on a zipline. Overlook Park offers a beach area, swimming, and nature trails, providing a picturesque retreat just a short drive from Canyon Lake and its mesmerizing dam.

For those seeking the ultimate river experience, the Lone Star Float House awaits with tube and kayak rentals, shuttle services, and a laid-back bar and grill atmosphere. A stone's throw away.

Escape to the Pecan Creek Cottage, where the Guadalupe River whispers tales of adventure, and every moment is infused with the spirit of a Texan getaway. Your dream vacation begins here, where the river's embrace and the charm of New Braunfels create memories that last a lifetime.

    Our stay was peaceful, relaxing, and incredibly fun! Our main goal for the trip was to tube the river, and this property was in the absolute perfect location for that. We used Summit Tubing, which was just a convenient 2-minute drive away.The outdoor setting here is by far the highlight. Starting the morning with coffee on the porch swing was the best way to kick off the day. Highly recommend!

    We were looking for a quite place to relax and unwind for a long weekend and this place was perfect. We sat out by the river and just enjoyed it all. The only that l could suggest is adding some handrails for the outside stairs, for us older people. We will coming back for more peace. Thank you, James & Sandy

    The River House was great it had everything you would need for the kitchen, plenty of towels, plenty of room. What a beautiful back porch with a great view of the river. I would recommend this house for young strong and healthy people due to the only reason that will prevent me from returning to this lovely house. This house has very steep steps in the front and back and no safety rails to assist you (except for one place about 4-5 feet where the steps are level). Not a place for any one with difficulty walking up and down steep stairs.

    Nice property right on the river, felt very secluded even though there are other properties nearby. Great place to relax and unwind. Kitchen was lacking some basic utensils for cooking and cookware is a haphazard assortment. Recommend bringing your own if you plan to cook. There also were no kitchen towels and we were told by the property management hotline that is not something they provide.

    Hello the stay we just completed had air conditioning and wifi issues as well as swarms of flies. There was no wifi or television/Internet able to connect. We had spotty cell service. The air-conditioning in the living room was basically non existent. We messaged gost immediately when we got there and they couldn't fix wifi and didn't say anything about the a)c. Most of the pots and pans were filthy and the outside grill was also dirty and lacked propane. The house was under construction...

    Kitchen window had cobwebs and dead water bugs. Second bedroom needs to have a closet and dresser. Outdoors wasn't clean. House keeping needs to make sure they leave enough bath towels and kitchen towels. All in all it's a home

    My mother and ai stayed a night. House was nice and easy walk down to the water. Great location. Needs a little work. No toilet paper holder in the 2nd bath. Kitchen could use more pans, Larger frying pan. Im just used to basic items being provided. sugar, salt, pepper, coffee. If they could put up a privacy shade on the back porch on the east side, it would definitely help not seeing the woman who lives there all day long looking over. It was only a night so no big deal, I would definitely stay again!

    This property is exactly what we expected. The pictures we're very accurate, the water was slow-moving and clean, and there's an underwater limestone ledge for shallow sitting just before a nice, deep plunge into the brisk Guadalupe. Perfect angle for sunset viewing, too!

    Love this house right on the Guadalupe River! We have stayed here many times. Recently they upgraded the floors and the bathrooms and it is a huge improvement, especially the bathrooms. Great showers and toilets now, and a big reason we will come back. We actually stayed somewhere else last visit b/c this place was a little run down, and they have fixed all that. Need a new fridge or to fix the water/ice maker, but otherwise this place is now in great shape. Fantastic access to the river and great fishing right at your back door. Check out the drive in theater in New Braunfels and go shopping in Greune. We love this trip every year and this a great place to stay.

    The property was as listed. Beautiful riverfront property. The proximity to restaurants, grocery stores and entertainment was great. I was glad we had decided not to do a lot of cooking. There was plenty cookware but missing some silverware!! There was supposed to be shampoo, conditioner and soap. There was only shampoo! The house was clean and the beds were very comfortable so that made up for the small issues. I would go back!!

    I can't say enough about the location, fishing out your back door! It was a perfect location. Overall, the cabin was very comfortable except for a few issues that happened during the stay. It was a cold morning and the heater took hours to heat the cabin and the washer did not work. The property manager was responsive and provided support along the way so hopefully these issues will be resolved before the next guest arrives. I'd stay there again, very peaceful.

    We enjoyed the style and location of this house, very nice back porch. The only thing that concerned my husband and I was the musty smell. Air vents looked like mold was in and around vents. As a chronic asthmatic it was a concern. Love the place except for that. Neighbor was so kind to us that was an unexpected pleasure. I got sick and we cut trip short. I ended up in hospital for a few days.
