We have stayed at this lovely property multiple times and it is ALWAYS very clean! It is exactly as listed, and the host is very responsive. Plenty of options for everyone to be together at the same time as well as quiet places for just a couple of people to visit. We highly recommend it!

Cute historic home near downtown

Stayed over the 4th for an annual tubing trip with family. Due to weather we were unable to do much tubing, but loved the convenience of walking to shopping and restaurants! Dogs loved the backyard and making friends with the local deer. Home is older but very charming!

NB Stay

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.

Fun place

House is very vintage and cozy. It is a very quick walk to the drop in for tubing on the river. The downtown area is very close too with many shops and restaurants. Muck & Fuss was great. We had a great time floating there and even in San Marcos. San Antonio is only about a 30 minute drive too. We would love to co.e back. We would stay at the same place, for sure.

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.

Wonderful Stay

Stayed at the property with my family of four (including two kids and a dog) plus my in-laws. Owners were very accessible before the stay and at check-in. The house was convenient to the river and downtown (both walkable, but did drive to both as well because of the heat and carrying tubes). Pictures are accurate. For those bringing pets, backyard is not fenced. Not an issue for us and was nice to see the deer in both the front and back yards. Overall great stay and would stay at the property again.

Lovely house in a great location

The house is just lovely. Vintage is what I love. Well stocked and the A/C worked great. 2 bedrooms were joined with one bathroom and the back bedroom was off the hall of the second bathroom. It worked out fantastic with our group. We sat on the porch swings every morning with our coffee and watched the deer. You can walk too many things. Schlitterbahn is very close ( one could walk). Muck and Fuss is a very short walk and a great restaurant. Citron is a short walk and we loved their coffee and crepes. We had a fun trip. My only suggestion is that it is time for new mattresses. We would stay here again once mattresses are upgraded.

The Bonaparte Place

Location, Location, Location! We enjoyed staying at the Bonaparte Place. This home was absolutely amazing! We were so happy with our choice. The house was exceptionally clean and extremely well stocked!!! Included were so many of the little amenities we all need at home that we all take for granted until we don't have them. The deck was lovely and we even saw MANY MANY deer including a newly born fawn. What a warm, welcoming, well-equipped, wonderful place! From the ease of booking, the detailed shopping, restaurants, and attraction booklets, charming yard, great walkability to the river, and overall good vibes, we could not have asked for more. Thank you for the joy and delight of staying at such a lovely spot. Exceptional in every way! We will definitely be recommending this charming home to our family & friends. From the minute we entered the house we fell in love and cannot wait to return!

Little jewel box of a house.

This house is located near downtown New Braunfels and the river. You can easily walk to restaurants/bars and shopping downtown. The river is around the corner. We enjoyed the front porch swings and dining al fresco on the back deck.
