Welcome to SkyForest

Escape to SkyForest, a one-of-a-kind luxury estate in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, where dramatic architecture, beautiful interiors, scenic views and room to gather create a stay that's anything but ordinary.

Located in New Braunfels, Texas, SkyForest offers the privacy and space of a secluded Hill Country retreat while keeping you close to everything that makes the area such a popular destination. With accommodations for up to 18 overnight guests, the estate was made for bringing people together—whether you're planning a family getaway, reunion, friends' weekend, wedding weekend, corporate retreat or simply looking for an unforgettable place to reconnect.

From the moment you enter the private gated property, SkyForest feels different.

This isn't your typical vacation rental. It's a destination of its own.

A Home Designed for Gathering

SkyForest offers expansive spaces where your entire group can spend time together without feeling crowded.

The home's dramatic architecture and thoughtfully designed interiors create an impressive backdrop for your stay, while multiple gathering areas give everyone room to relax, visit and make memories.

Spend the morning enjoying coffee and the peaceful surroundings. Gather around the table for a meal with family and friends. Relax together after a day exploring New Braunfels, Gruene or the Hill Country. Or simply slow down and enjoy having everyone you care about together under one roof.

With room for up to 18 guests, SkyForest is especially well suited for larger families and groups who would otherwise need several hotel rooms or multiple vacation rentals.

Here, everyone gets to stay together.

The Kitchen & Dining Experience

The kitchen serves as one of the natural gathering places of the home and provides plenty of space for preparing meals for a group.

Whether you're making a quick breakfast before heading out for the day, preparing a family dinner or bringing in a private chef or approved caterer for a special occasion, the space makes entertaining a group easy.

A Nespresso coffee maker is available for those slow Hill Country mornings when there's nowhere you need to be.

The dining and gathering areas allow meals to become part of the experience rather than something your group has to coordinate around separate hotel rooms or restaurants.

Comfortable Spaces to Unwind

After a full day exploring New Braunfels and the surrounding Hill Country, come home to comfortable bedrooms and thoughtfully appointed spaces designed for relaxation.

For movie nights or winding down after a day in the Hill Country, enjoy a 65" Smart TV in the main living room or retreat to the Primary Suite featuring an impressive 90" Smart TV for your own private theater-like experience.

SkyForest accommodates up to 18 overnight guests, making it an excellent choice for extended families, multiple couples, groups of friends, reunion trips, wedding parties and retreats.

The home offers enough space for everyone to gather when they want to—and enough room to spread out when they don't.

Your Own Private Hill Country Retreat

One of the things guests love most about SkyForest is the feeling of getting away from it all without actually being far away.

The property offers scenic views, peaceful surroundings and a private gated entrance, creating a sense of seclusion that's difficult to find in a traditional hotel or neighborhood vacation rental.

Step outside, enjoy the fresh Hill Country air and take in the surroundings.

It's equally suited to quiet mornings, conversations that last well into the evening and simply spending time together without the distractions of everyday life.

Minutes From the Best of New Braunfels

When you're ready to explore, you're perfectly positioned to enjoy everything the area has to offer.

Spend the day floating or exploring the Comal and Guadalupe Rivers, visit Gruene Historic District, catch live music at legendary Gruene Hall, spend a day at Schlitterbahn, or discover the restaurants, breweries, shopping and entertainment throughout New Braunfels.

SkyForest also makes a great home base for exploring the broader Texas Hill Country, including wineries, scenic drives and neighboring destinations.

And when the day's adventures are over, you can leave the crowds behind and return to the privacy of your own estate.

Perfect for Families & Large Groups

Finding a property that comfortably accommodates a large group can be difficult.

Finding one where the property itself becomes part of the trip is even harder.

SkyForest is ideal for:

• Multi-generational family vacations
• Family reunions
• Groups of friends
• Wedding parties and wedding weekends
• Birthday and anniversary trips
• Corporate and leadership retreats
• Church and organizational retreats
• Holiday gatherings
• Graduation weekends
• Military families visiting the San Antonio/New Braunfels area
• Approved celebrations and special events

Instead of dividing everyone between several hotel rooms, your group can cook together, eat together, relax together and actually enjoy the reason you traveled in the first place—being together.

Celebrations, Retreats & Approved Events

SkyForest is more than an overnight destination.

Certain weddings, celebrations, retreats, family gatherings and special events may be permitted with advance approval.

Because every gathering is different, events and additional visitors must be discussed and approved prior to arrival. Additional event fees, vendor requirements, parking arrangements and refundable deposits may apply depending on the size and nature of the event.

We can also help coordinate approved outside vendors such as catering & food trucks. We also offer event rental equipment billed separately from your reservation and best of all, it is all coordinated by our team with no need for you to worry about delivery / pickup between check-in / Check-out window.

If you're considering SkyForest for a special occasion, send us a message before booking with your approximate guest count and what you have planned. We'll be happy to discuss whether the property is a good fit.

Easy, Private Self Check-In

Your stay begins with easy self check-in.

SkyForest has a private gated entrance and smart-lock access. Before arrival, you'll receive a unique access code for your stay, allowing your group to arrive without coordinating an in-person key exchange.

Checkout: 12:00 PM

A Few Things to Know

Come Experience SkyForest

Some trips are about where you go.

Others are about who you're with.

SkyForest was created for the second kind.

It's a place for grandparents and grandchildren to wake up under the same roof. For old friends to finally take the trip they've talked about for years. For families to celebrate milestones. For wedding parties to spend more than a few hurried hours together. For groups to put away the schedules, gather around the table and reconnect.

You can explore New Braunfels all day, experience the rivers, restaurants and music of the Hill Country—and then come back to a private estate where the evening is still yours.

18 guests. One beautiful property. And plenty of room to make memories together.

Welcome to SkyForest.

We'd love to host you.
