Perfect Honeymoon Stay
I never sleep, ever, but had no issues getting a good nights rest with their cozy beds and pillows. The views were stunning, fireplace in the room was amazing. Breakfast in the mornings was delicious! Loved being able to walk everywhere in Gruene. There is free Pacman! We loved getting to know the kind staff members. Everything was just perfect and we cant wait to return!

Absolutely beautiful property located on the river and steps away from Gruene Hall. Our room was very comfortable and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the complimentary late afternoon beer, wine, and snacks along with the morning breakfast which was outstanding. Great game room with large screen tv, shuffle board and pool table. Overall quiet property with so many amenities, something for everyone! Looking forward to our next visit!
