Great space for a small family get together to enjoy walking distance to tubing the river (tubes were included) and an evening at Greune Hall. Very well stocked kitchen and lovely porch in the front and deck out back with plenty of seating for everyone.

Great House in New Braunfels
Nicely kept older house in the downtown New Braunfels area. My family and I stayed in town for Wurstfest, and found this property a short walk away from the festival. Very comfortable house that felt like a second home for the weekend. Would highly recommend.

I spent a much needed time off in this charming property. The hosts were easy to deal with and the house was comfortable for my lengthy stay. Close to the Comal but not a traffic problem. It was quiet. Location was perfect for dining and shopping.

A Hidden Gem
This quaint, cozy and eclectic house quietly sits near the Comal river and a couple of blocks from New Braunfels nightlife. What a lovely mix of peaceful and fun. Leslie and Tom were very responsive with a terrific support staff to take care all the little things. I loved walking the neighborhood and meeting so many nice people! This is going to be my new go-to place when I come back around to this part of Texas.

This adorable house was just what we needed! It was close to local stores/food and near the river. My daughter (and who am I kidding, me too) loved watching families of deer come into the backyard. Everything was very clean, organized, and easy to find. I would definitely stay here again!

Weekend stay
My husband and I and our son took a weekend to just get some much needed rest. The home, which is a 1918 home, was cleaner than many of the newer homes we have stayed in. It was such a nice weekend. Reminded me so much of my time at my grandparents home when I was little. We walked down town for dinner and the neighborhood and neighbors were very quiet.

Relaxing and comfortable
Even though it was a cold and rainy weekend, we enjoyed the home tremendously. The home was closed to Gruene and downtown New Braunfels. However, just sitting outside on the porch and enjoying the scenery was the best. Our children really enjoyed watching the deer's walking around.

Fantastic bungalow!
We booked this place last minute as our original plans fell through and we were so happy we did. We are a family of 4 with teenagers and fur babies and this place was perfect! The manager was so helpful and very quick in communication. The bungalow is perfectly set up for a family with the 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Its a gorgeous old bungalow that has been perfectly maintained and is immaculately clean. There are tubes to use for the Comal nearby and it’s walking distance to great local eateries and tubing.

Wonderful Christmas Weekend
My family chose to meet in New Braunfels for our family Christmas again this year and we were so pleased with Bonaparte place! My brother was a bit concerned that the freezing weather might be too much for the older home, but the heating unit worked beautifully. Beds were comfy, bathrooms stocked with amenities and plenty pots and pans for cooking in the kitchen. It was obvious that the owners have thought of everything and they have kept this home in tip top shape.

Adorable river house
This house had everything we needed for a weekend getaway with friends. It was easy to check in, needed items (parking permits, extra keys, etc) were all easy to find. There was a list of nearby restaurants (complete with average wait times!) that was very helpful. The house was adorable, and a great size for three couples. We enjoyed the friendly deer in the backyard, they were a highlight of the trip.
