Great family get away
Though the lake is lowered for dam repairs being on the water was great. We had a large group of family and friends and the home worked well for 30 people. The kitchen had all the equipment needed for cooking for our group. There were plenty of towels and they even provided shampoo, conditioner and body wash. The teens loved the ping-pong table and we made s'mores in the big fire pit and fished off the dock. The only cons I can think of would be that the air hockey table didn't function right and had to buy toilet paper and trash bags because not enough were provided.

Spacious house for multi-family getaway!
My family had a wonderful time at the Placid Lake Lodge. We have 5 different family units with a total of 9 kids and there was plenty of room for all! The bedrooms were large and spacious with lots of options for sleeping arrangements and the main living area was also plenty expansive for it to not feel crowded or too crazy! Communication with Jessica was very easy and clear. We loved the closeness to the water and beautiful lawn with all the trees and shade! Thank you for a wonderful place to host our large family!

JaMonica Wedding
Where do we start - everything was simply amazing!! We began working with Jessica early in 2023 in renting the location and letting her know we would be using it as a wedding site and place for family and friends to stay together over the weekend. Jessica was very helpful, prompt, and responsive. We had very good vibes from her from the beginning. We toured the location prior to our special day and were awestruck at the beauty, energy, and openness of the location. Our wedding was the November 11 2023 and every guest we had simply loved the accommodations. During our stay we stayed in communication with Jessica who remained responsive and attentive. The site was simply beautiful and well maintained and fit our needs perfectly. I highly recommend this site and it is perfect for an intimate wedding. Rating a solid 5 stars!!

The house is absolutely gorgeous, incredibly spacious and perfectly equipped for large groups! My husband and I got married in a private ceremony and rented this space for a weekend celebration just a few days later. It was nothing short of perfect- simply unforgettable! I would return again and again :)

Family reunion
The house is beautiful. We rented for 14 to 16 persons. I contacted the owner regarding supplies for the house. No complain regarding linens and towels, but one roll of paper towels for so many for 4 days. Also limited supply of toilet paper. No hangers in closets. One tea spoon for so many. Also , there were spider webs on the windows mostly outside as well as in living room and dinning room. The lower outside level not clean full of leaves. The extra refrigerator was not very clean.

Fantastic w/Amazing Space
We had such a fun few days together as a family at this beautiful property. We loved staying in what we fondly called “our tree house”, and the grand kids thought it was completely the coolest place ever! There is plenty of space to spread out, while feeling cozy at the same time. We absolutely loved our stay and would suggest it to anyone who might be looking for a place for their family and or friends to gather.

River House
We totally loved the house, it was in a perfect location for us. We have family that lives in the area and we were able to visit with them and go to New Braunfels, Gruene and Seguin without having to go to far. We definitely plan to rent again. The only thing I felt was the house cleaning could have been better. But other than that it was a great time for all.

Had a blast with our family of 28! The house has so many beds and sofa beds that made it very comfortable for everyone. The only downside was that the water in the river was ridiculously low.... At no fault of the property owners of course. Great experience overall since all we care about is spending time with family.
