This place is just as advertised, maybe even better than the description. Brought my family down for some fun in the sun and this place did not disappoint as our base camp. We were surprised by the amount of space we had. Had enough for each kid to have a bed and then some. The hosts had amazing communication. Grade A plus. Very clean. Very well kept and cared for. Would definitely book again!

We had a wonderful stay at the Grand Welcome in New Braunfels. We were close enough to everything to check out the farmers market, eat great German food, see my nephew graduate, eat the best tacos every morning from Alex's in Seguin, grab coffee from great local coffee shops and explore the towns a little bit. Our family of 6 was very comfortable with our stay, my kids loved the nook in the kitchen, we all had a blast playing in the game room from ping pong to board games. My kids range from age 1-18 and there was something for everyone to enjoy their stay. My local family members are eager to recommend this stay to family member who come into town and we would be delighted to stay again on our future trips. The host was very kind and considerate with communication. Our family highly recommends this stay!

We had 4 teenage boys and they really enjoyed the game room. We didn't have one time when they were on their cell phones. We had plenty of room. The game room could have been cooler, but the rest of the house was at a very comfortable temperature.

Pros: plenty of beds and bathrooms, washer/dryer, A/C, large fridge with plenty of dishes and utensils, game room is terrific and the activities makeup for many of the cons, great place for a family to relax for a long weekend Cons: needs a thorough cleaning - stained bedding, worn towels, kitchen pans are old & heavily scratched teflon. great online photos but they don't show that the property needs general maintenance - 1/2 bath faucet is loose, pantry smells overwhelmingly of maple syrup, balcony furniture covered in bird poop, wasp nests, cobwebs, game room couch and chairs are old, worn and dirty, mold in the shower, no kitchen dish rags - just an old previously used sponge and no cleaners except comet to clean countertops or other areas after cooking
