Properr is very clean. Lots of bedding and towels. Also really great patio that has comfortable seating and beautiful river view. The firepit next to river was such a hem . My family used it at night to tell stories amd eat smores. Wondersul stay. Cant say enoigh. Would definitely book aagin!
Book it!!! This water front property would be hard to beat! The location on the river is perfect and the flat entrance to the water provides easy access to the river and the flat land allows for a comfortable place to sit in your chair and relax. Perfect for folks with kiddos! The house was well stocked and an added plus was the host reached out to ensure we had everything we needed. We will be back! :)
Property was perfect! Nice spot on the river and great for relaxing or floating. The house was stocked with little extras and fit our crew comfortably. The host was amazing and quick to respond to inquiries. We would love to come back next year. Thank you!
We had a wonderful vacation at Whitewater Ranch Retreat! The location is perfect and the property is beautiful! The owners were very prompt with communication as well. We are already checking our calendars to book again!
We had an amazing stay here! The river in front of the house felt very private and was so easy to put tubes in the float down the river. A quick 15 minute walk back after the float! (They are expanding the pedestrian walking between the horseshoe so there is construction but it didnât interfere much and we did it with 5 kids. Brandon checked in with us to make sure we had everything we needed and the house was absolutely perfect. The kids loved playing basketball and playing baseball in the back. Couldnât have hoped for a better stay and canât wait to come back!
Clean house, super attentive host, beautiful yard and river area. Our group of 10, ages 9-43, loved our stay in this house. You can float the horseshoe section of the river easily. You can fish and hang out in the river right at the house. Close to many activities.
Our family and friends enjoyed our stay. Property accommodated 7 of us easily including sleeping, bathing, and sharing meals. Great property and great location. We floated the horseshoe right from the property, rented a pontoon boat and went tubing on Canyon Lake, ate at the Grist Mill and listened to music at Gruene Hall, several fire pit and snores right next to the river at night, and so on.
Our family had a wonderful time! Cleanest, well maintained property we have ever experienced with VRBO. Perfect for walking down to the river and just sitting or float the Horseshoe of the river from house, just have to make a plan to get back to property.(A couple of us walked back to home then took a truck to pick up kids and floats). Quiet neighborhood and polite host! Thank you for sharing your home with others! Definitely want to return soon!!
House was perfect. The property was absolutely stunning, yard sloped perfectly into the river versus the other houses we looked at that had cliffs. Fishing was awesome, tons of trout. Tubes and inflatable paddleboards and kayaks in shed that were easy to get. Plenty of ice in the house for drinks which is essential lol. Brandon was an amazing host was very responsive to our needs. The check in process was super easy. Would love to come back. Was a very peaceful stay. Thanks again :)
Second Time Staying at This Second to None Property
We couldnât have asked for a more perfect place to spend our Easter holiday than Whitewater Ranch Retreat-we fished, kayaked, paddle boarded, swam, relaxed, walked to Whitewater Amphitheater to see a concert, cooked, had an Easter egg hunt and made lots of forever memories at this beautifully comfortable home. The location, owners and accommodations are all wonderful. Thank you for sharing your special space!
My family spent 3 nights at Whitewater Ranch Retreat, and it was a perfect long weekend! The property owner is super nice and accommodating. The house is gorgeous and spacious with a beautiful view of the river. The beds are very comfortable. The water is cold, but very clear, and it didn't deter us from getting in, at least partially. It's easy to get in and float, there's a great two hour float right from the yard. We hope to go again next year! I highly recommend!!
My Family and I spent Spring Break at Whitewater Ranch Retreat. The property is a dream with a massive back yard right on the river. The property comes with paddle boards, kayaks, fishing equipment, and lawn games. My kids enjoyed every moment and are already asking to return. We will definitely return.
The overall house was very clean, had all the basics and more. The deck is nice and big and we loved the large swing seat. I came with small children who absolutely loved the bunk bed setup. The gradual slope in the backyard to the water behind the house was a huge selling feature for us and the shallowness of the creek. Both were so enjoyable even with small kids and the landscape was beautiful. Overall a great experience.
Great and clean accommodations, had everything we needed. It was a perfect stay for our family! We had kids, all the way up to Grandparents. Having the additional water toys was wonderful because we didnât have to pack ours. We had great weather and were able to spend a lot of time on the water. Great yard and deck to accommodate yard games and morning coffee!
This place is absolutly wonderful. Great location to the river, places to eat and things to do. The house was spotless, very cozy, really comfortable. They have everything you need. They have little extras that many other places don't have or do. We will definitely be back. We saved this place as a top area fav.
We booked this property to celebrate my sonâs 14th birthday by fly fishing on the Guadalupe. This home has a beautiful spot right on the river and has a warm and joyful feel inside and out. There is plenty of space, the beds are comfortable and the area is super peaceful and quiet. There was a herd of deer that would come each night to eat acorns and they were beautiful to watch as well. What a special place!
Everything about this trip was awesome! This was a family trip for a family of 5, all adults. We drove up to a well manicured lawn. Walked into a cool house, lights on, with music playing and chocolates on our beds! The location to nearby floating, distance to the water and fire pit area did not disappoint. The host response time was terrific! Definitely recommend!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the River house! Easy access to the River and just a 10 minute drive to Canyon Lake. All the kids, ages 9-17, had a blast playing basketball out front and floating the river.
Communication was great! Weâll definitely book again in the future!
It was our second time staying at the house and it was amazing!
The house is well stocked, beautifully decorated and incredibly family friendly.
The owners have gone above and beyond to create an unforgettable experience for guests and our family.
10/10 recommend this home!
We had the best time at this perfectly placed river home! The house felt so peaceful and serene, especially for being just upstream of the horse shoe! We floated the horse shoe a couple times and had an easy walk back home, we took the dads in our crew to Camp Fimfo for a father's day ride on the Cliff Carver, and enjoyed some local shopping and BBQ.... but it was so nice that at the end of our adventures we could head back home to our own secluded river house. Brandon was very responsive and helpful while we were there, too! We left with plans to come back again!
We loved our stay and would love to come back again!! Our son, Kyle married Robyn, in New Braunsfels!!
The house was in a great location with easy access to the water for tubing and the ability to just walk in and sit and chill. The owner has the area very well maintained. There is a firepit with plenty of chairs and lights. You have a huge yard to watch the kids play games or throw the football.
We spent a lot of time on the covered deck watching sports, grilling, and catching up with friends and family. This would also be the perfect place for a nap.
I love the open concept area where the kitchen, dining room, and living room are open so you can visit with everyone while cooking. It has two large bedrooms with king beds. It has two very nicely remodeled bathrooms. There is a laundry room which we appreciated.
My favorite area was the built in bunk beds which sleeps eight. It had a large bean bag and easy access to the tv. This is the perfect area for kids or for a family to have their own space to sleep if there are multiple families visiting.
Out in front, they have a basketball hoop, pinic table, and benches. You can keep an eye on the kids and still be able to relax.
I wanted to say a big thank you to Brandon. Your place was perfect for us and allowed us to create wonderful memories that I will cherish for a lifetime!! Fantastic stay, book early, and book now!! Thanks!!
We had a fantastic experience at the white water ranch retreat! From the time of the booking and throughout our entire stay Brandon, the property owner, was great at communicating. He responded very quickly and was always very courteous and kind.
The property pictures online looked very appealing, but everything was even better in person. The house was very clean and inviting. Everything looks newly remodeled and well taken care of. We had two families (4 adults - 5 kids) in our party and the house felt like plenty of space. The bunk room was great for all the kids.
The outdoor space was the highlight! The covered patio is so spacious. We could watch sports on the patio while watching the kids play in the yard. The yard is HUGE! The kids loved playing in the yard and in the water. Our kids did some fishing, collected little shells, and tried to catch frogs in the evening.
The first night we were there we used the fire pit. The kids loved making sâmores! It was great that there are solar powered string lights around the fire pit area.
We loved everything about our stay! We look forward to visiting again in the future.
The unique benefit of renting Whitewater Ranch Retreat is that you can float the Horseshoe float at Whitewater from your own backyard and then just walk right back to house when done. No need to shuttle people or pay expensive prices for tubes and transportation back and forth. You can also forget all the crazy traffic when going to see a concert at Whitewater Amphitheater. Just grab a cold beer and the walk is only about 12 minutes. No drinking and driving needed!!!! Staying at Whitewater Ranch Retreat is a whole lot cheaper than a DWI!! We also have water access that is like a beach. Our property rolls into the river and make hanging out on the banks very simple and hassle free. We look forward to having you as a guest very soon!
