Adorable Gruene Location on the River

We had a girls’ trip there, and it was awesome! The place was really cute and had everything we needed. It was a close walk to Gruene Hall and down to the river. I would stay there again and highly recommend it!

Weekend in Gruene

Wonderful property with incredible access to both the river and Greene’s town center. We didn’t need to drive anywhere once we arrived except to the wedding we were in Gruene to attend.

Amazing location and amenities

We had the best time at the Fun Casita in Gruene! The property was beautiful and well furnished, but it didn’t compare to the river access and water amenities. We spent much of our trip sitting on chairs in the water watching the tubers and the wildlife. The bonus was the location which allowed us to walk to all of the restaurants, shopping, and entertainment areas. I highly recommend this casita!

Great place

We were in town to watch a friend headline her first show at Gruene Hall. Stayed here and it was perfect. It’s only a 3 min walk to historic area and great access to river. The Casita was perfect. The beds were enormously comfortable, bathroom was well appointed.

Absolutely beautiful!

We chose to stay here based on all the positive reviews we read online and I have to say that our experience surpassed the best of these reviews! This is a beautiful property with spectacular access to the Guadalupe river and downtown Gruene! Perfect place for a weekend getaway, and we hope to maybe one day stay even longer!

Happy, BUT NOT

I would like to submit a response to a situation with my daughter. I was out of the casita, enjoying the river and I received a text from my daughter. She frantically texted me that a man came into our casita while she was in the shower. He yelled at her to turn her music down. The music was coming from her iPhone while in the shower. I think this was very inappropriate because it scared her. I feel a text or phone call would have been more appropriate. Renting does not give one the right to barge into a room.

Short Visit

This was a quick trip to Gruene on a Friday. The ability to book one night and not two or more was critical. It is easy walking distance to all Gruene venues, very clean, comfortable and pleasant place to stay. I noticed that river access, bbq pits, fire places, kayaks and more are available. We will return again when it's warmer. :)

Perfection!

This could not have been better. Resort status! The casita was spotless, stocked with everything you could need, and beautiful. We felt so safe and comfortable here. And my God! The river access! We had such a great time relaxing by the river, and paddle boarding/floating around during the day, then walking to Gruene Hall at night to watch our friend play a show. This really couldn’t have been more perfect. Can’t wait to book our next trip!!
