Nice property

Vacation Date: July 17, 2025

"Very nice unit. The complex is an older structure but beautiful private grounds, well-maintained. The 2 pools & hot tubs were clean & the larger pool sits near the river which backs up the property. Very relaxing. The unit provided river tubes which is a big plus! Very nice, sturdy tubes. Large balcony which the family enjoyed, overlooking the smaller pool. Easy to watch older children! Large outside table which was nice for family games. Had a few maintenance issues I reported but they responded quickly. The proximity to new Braunfels shops and Gruene was perfect!

Spacious, Clean and Convenient

Vacation Date: June 23, 2022

"The condo was very clean and comfortable and very spacious. There was only one frying pan so I had to use a pot as a 2nd pan when cooking breakfast. The pool in front of the balcony is very very small but it is convenient and there is a larger pool toward the river. We didn't realize there were free tube rentals available until we got our check out instructions. I had to call the office because we were short 2 bracelets and the girl who answered was extremely nice, but the lady who brought them was extremely rude. Overall it was a great experience and I would definitely recommend this property.

Reviewed By: Jaymi A.

Response from River City Resorts:
We are glad that you found the unit spacious, clean and comfortable. Unfortunately, inner tubes are no longer offered by River City Resorts as of 2021. We checked with the staff that brought the wrist bandstands and she stated that when she brought the wristbands to the condo, that no-one answered the door, so she she went to the courtyard pool to see if the guests were there. She found the gentlemen of the party poolside with several children and personally handed over the wristbands. She did say that none of the party had the property wristbands on (which they did have 6) and that she told them they needed to go upstairs and put them on. We are glad that you had a great experience and would recommend this property!

Our stay at Waterwheel J 203

Vacation Date: September 20, 2021

"This is our 3rd time visiting New Braunfels and our 2nd stay at Waterwheel with River City Resorts. Our stay was good but the condo could use some attention. There is peeling paint in master bath, cooking pans warped and not enough glasses for 6-8 guests. The guest bath had hair we cleaned around the base of wall and toothpaste all inside the medicine cabinet. There was food under the couch and dust on the dresser and nightstands in master bedroom. The pillows need to be replaced,ice maker is loud and doesn't work well and the pot holders needed to be washed before being used. There is no dresser/ chest for clothing in bedroom with 2 beds. We have stayed with River city resorts before and will use them again in the future but this unit was not what we experienced with them in the past.

Nice condo but disappointing experience

Vacation Date: June 16, 2017

"This was my fourth year (and sixth time) to book a vacation place in New Braunfels for a group of friends. At least four of those times, I've booked a condo at Waterwheel. As usual, the condo itself was well maintained and a pleasant experience. The thing that bothered everyone in our group was that for the first time, the main pool closed at 11 PM. It's bad enough that the small pools close at 10 PM on the weekend, despite everyone being allowed to stay outside on their patio much later than that.

In previous years, we've been at the main pool till 1 AM, and it was extremely disappointing to drive several hours after work on Friday to start our vacation at the pool, only to be asked by security to leave minutes after arriving and getting settled in.

We don't spend $1,000 for a relaxing weekend getaway only to be told we can't use the pool at night, even though we're all adults, no one was making any noise, and the pool is far away from any nearby condos. Even Saturday night, we were not back from dinner till nearly 10 PM which gave us less than an hour to use the pool.

It is very unlikely that we will stay at Waterwheel again due to this new policy. It hardly makes sense to stay at a sometimes crowded community with an 11 PM curfew when we could rent a whole private house with no curfew for a similar price.

Reviewed By: Richard M.

Response from River City Resorts:
Thanks you for the notice in regards to the new pool hours. We will reach out to the HOA in regards to the pool closing and se if it can be amended.

Super easy rental agency to deal with. A+++ ! Would definitely return. Tons of space and wonderfully large/gated outdoor patio. Not many cons: ice maker didn't work and the love seat was peeling pretty badly on one cushion. I was worried my little ones would finish the job. :). Other than that... solid 10 out of 10.
