About this cabin rental

This is a private, fully furnished, rustic cabin on Lake Dunlap with a 2-level boat house. Awesome find for couples and families! The cabin, lakefront, and new boat dock are all exclusively yours to enjoy. Kayaks and water toys included. Pet friendly.

For groups that want more sleeping space, please see our listing "Charming cabin on the Guadalupe river WITH RV", which is this same property, but includes use of our fully furnished RV.

Search "Texas Monthly ten great vacation rentals vetted by Texas Monthly writers" and scroll to "Lakefront Cabin in New Braunfels" for a nice description of our place.

The cabin is 480 Square feet and built circa 1930. A queen, twin, and sofa sleeper allow for a good nights sleep. This is simple studio style therefore all in one room space. A fully stocked kitchen provides the backdrop for a gourmet meal or just BBQ outside in covered BBQ pavilion. Books, WIFI, various DVD's, and board games provide indoor entertainment.

***This being a rustic cabin, it has very little modern day insulation. Please expect that on very hot summer days, the inside temperature may reach the upper 70's, and on very cold nights, may reach the 50's, despite our AC and heaters.***

Our boathouse is great for lounging and swimming, and is where you will spend most of your time. Wide stairs allow for easy water access to swim, float, or kayak. Our covered upper deck is perfect for lounging all day, and dinner in the evening.

Nearer the cabin is a charcoal grill and a huge offset smoker. All are under a covered pavilion with table and chairs close by.

The back porch and long yard with shady tall trees greet your view of Lake Dunlap. The firepit is great on chilly nights. It's absolutely gorgeous.

This is a great place for pets, but it's not tightly enclosed, so bring your leash.

New Braunfels provides so many options as far as fun things to do. Tubing from Landa Falls or The Float In is so much fun especially because of the Tube Chute! Good places to eat and shopping are available in New Braunfels and Gruene. A nice walk through Landa Park and Panther Canyon provide a nature getaway. If you need anymore info or need suggestions don’t hesitate to ask. There are several hiking trails in our area. I'm happy to provide a list.

Our property provides you with a unique opportunity to swim, fish, enjoy the boathouse, fire pit, and use the kayaks and water toys. We want you to take advantage of these amenities and have a memorable visit. However, by agreeing to our House Rules, you acknowledge that there are inherent risks involved with participating in these activities and that lakes, boathouses, stairs, campfires, kayaks, and water toys may present dangers for adults and children. Children must be carefully supervised at all times when near the water. If you swim or use the kayaks or water toys (especially children) we strongly recommend the use of life jackets which are provided for you and your guests. Because the water at the end of the dock is only 4' deep, no diving off the dock is allowed. By agreeing to the House Rules, you acknowledge the potential risks discussed above, agree to accept full responsibility for any bodily injury that may occur to you and others in your party, and waive any claim whatsoever against the owners for accidents or claims arising from these activities.

We had a great time in the cabin and the scenery is beautiful.
6 / 10Average·Nov 2024
The location was great, can't complain about that. Right along the Guadeloupe river and the neighborhood is quiet and cozy. There was some nearby construction but it was not a bother. The cabin is definitely small but that was not an issue for us. We were mostly disturbed by the multiple large roaches in the cabin. But I suppose that can be expected considering it's an outdoorsy style accommodation along the river. There were also many spider webs and cobwebs inside and outside the cabin. The double decker dock should be advertised more on the listing though. That was a wonderful surprise we were not expecting.
