Good rental!

Great spot on the guadalupe!The house was clean, comfortable, and offered plenty of parking. The true highlight, though, is its unbeatable location on the river. This is the last set of stairs along this stretch, and with no neighbors directly across, sitting in lawn chairs in the river feels peaceful, private, and surrounded by natural beauty. Just upstream, there’s a fun tube chute that kids can ride down again and again, landing right in front of the house. Downstream, you’ll find deeper water that’s perfect for kayaking—or you can carry your kayak upriver above the chute for even more deep-water access. We also made the quick drive to the horseshoe for a tubing trip. A shorter float (about 1.5–2 hours) ends at the bottom of the horseshoe, while the full float (4–5 hours) takes you all the way back to the house. Tip: research parking options in advance. We recommend avoiding mo market—while the sign says 15, they tack on extra fees and the staff is extremely rude, making it a frustrating experience. There is free parking along FM306, just follow parking signs. Also, the house is only a short drive to canyon lake, where you can hike trails (check out the Canyon Lake Dam trail) or rent boats and jet skis for a day on the water.

This was my family‘s fifth stay at the Trout house and it did not disappoint. We had a blast on the river, dinner on the porch while watching the deer runabout. Beds are comfortable and AC worked great! Not too fancy, just right for a River stay.

The only thing I like about this house is the area it is located. Very close to New Braunfels and right on the river. The river access is not as easy or appealing to spend time in, just so you know. This WAS my annnual family vacation spot for three years, but not anymore. All three mattresses are uncomfortable to sleep on and the pull out sofa bed dipped so far backwards that you were laying practically upside down. We will be looking elsewhere next year.
