Family Time
We had a little trouble getting into the house, and the Wi-Fi would not cooperate with my phone to call the manager for help - but we FINALLY figured it out. It was really very simple, we were just tired and frustrated. It's a nicely secluded property, yet close to town. The house was beautiful, very neat and clean, and everything was there that could possibly be needed. One of the trundle beds had no linens, but Walmart was close by. This is not a complaint, just a suggestion: A ramp or two would be nice for those who are wheelchair bound or who have trouble with their lower extremities, and grab bars for the shower and toilet could be helpful. After I booked the place, everything with my family went haywire, and we had to make several changes. The Property Manager, Rena, was very helpful and patient through it all, and I am so grateful to her. We all had a great time, and we are looking forward to a return visit in the near future.

Sibling Gathering
The house was beautiful. There was plenty of room to accommodate all eight of us for meals and socializing. The outdoors fire pit area was very enjoyable. We thoroughly enjoyed it! Unfortunately , the master bath shower and vanity storage shelves had to be cleaned and the media room bathroom shower area desperately needed cleaning. The house could use a deep cleaning. We also had to put up with 1-2 hour water outages every morning due to the water department shutting off our water supply while working on the bridge that was closed for repairs.

Great historical home, great kitchen, 4 king bedrooms and lots of games. House on a hill with great 360 views. Caught a few bass and perch in the pond. Kitchen has everything you need and HEB only 10 minutes away. Great place for large family or 4 couples to enjoy Gods canvas river, lake, big pecan trees and flowers everywhere. John

Great Family Retreat
We booked this house for some family and friends to stay at the weekend of my son's wedding in Luling. The location was a little further from the venue than I expected, but the house was beautiful, spacious and relaxing. There was enough room for the groomsmen to gather and get ready before the wedding. We loved the outdoor patio area and game room. I wish we had more time to enjoy all the amenities the house offered. Would definitely book again.

Great and secluded!
Wonderful floor plan for multiple families and generations! The town of Gonzales is boring so prepare to drive a lot if visiting San Antonio or anywhere. Other than several scorpions in the house (eight in five days) everything was absolutely perfect!! Comfortable, clean, plenty of supplies, really wonderful.

Great property! We will be back!
Beautiful place to stay and relax! Great place to take the kids to fish! We got a ton of catfish and sun perch. If you’re looking to float the river we went to New Braunfels it’s about a hour away from there but totally worth it! We will be back next to enjoy another week there! The property management were great!

The house is outstanding. More than enough space for everyone. The kids had a blast exploring the property. The river access was a bit treacherous for the little kids and grandma. We will definitely stay here again.

A Great Family Ranch Retreat
The ranch house is very well appointed with attention to detail and custom finishes. Plenty of open spaces and a great mixture of different areas to gather. Wonderful outdoor patio with bar, flatscreen TV, excellent outdoor furniture and nice long table give you views of sunrise and sunset. Little ones have plenty of spaces to explore and hiking the property was glorious. Everyone wants to return!
