Nestled within a quiet community, you’ll enjoy all the peace and serenity of lakefront living while still being within 15 minutes from downtown and all the shopping, dining, and nightlife that comes along with it. Plan a day trip to the Schlitterbahn Water Park, also just 15 minutes away, or take a venture into the historic district of Gruene and enjoy a tasting at a local winery. For lazy days spent at home, you’ll find plenty of excitement to keep you busy between a private fenced in backyard with grills and patio table and the lively game room offering a pool table, ping pong, foosball, darts, and table for enjoying a snack or playing a round of cards.

The eat-in kitchen is spacious enough for a crowd, well-equipped with all standard appliances, cookware, dining ware, and even a full-size, theater popcorn machine! Should the mood strike you to whip up a home cooked meal or two, this space can accommodate it all. Enjoy your fare at one of the two dining tables, each with seating for 6, or take it outside on the second-level deck to dine al fresco in the fresh Texas air. Peaceful mornings can also be spent here, soaking in lake views of a semi-private residential lake and quiet moments with your morning coffee.

We had such a great stay at this house! The game room is so fun and exactly what we were looking for. The house was clean, conveniently located, and we would definitely stay here again. The only downside is there is no lake/river access. But we still enjoyed our 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.

We stayed at the Country Style Retreat for the weekend, and it was perfect for our group of 8!The place was exactly as described clean, spacious, and we especially loved the game room. The hosts were awesome, very responsive and accommodating when we asked for a later check-out for Sunday morning! We’d definitely stay here again for our annual river trip!

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

This was probably the best VRBO we have ever stayed in. Everything looked brand new and it was super clean. Beds were comfortable. The kids loved the game room area.
