Located in a vibrant, historic neighborhood, our property offers not one but TWO entire houses with their own kitchens, living spaces, and bathrooms—all connected by a shared courtyard built for relaxation and fun. ⸻ The Property YES! Two whole houses. That means: • Two Fully Stocked Kitchens: Prepare meals at your leisure in either the main house or the casita. • Separate Living Areas: Enjoy two living rooms so the kids can watch movies in one space while adults unwind in the other. • Flexible Sleeping Arrangements: With 3 queen beds in the main house, 2 king beds in the casita, plus sleeper sofas and a twin daybed, your group will have plenty of room to relax. • Historic Charm with Modern Comforts: Built in 1929, the main house boasts original details and character. Embrace a few quirks—like creaky floorboards and a brief wait for hot water—while enjoying premium mattresses and linens throughout. A private, spacious courtyard joins the two houses, featuring an outdoor grill, lounge chairs, and a dining area perfect for gatherings in the Texas sun. ⸻ The Space Bring the whole family—or even split your group for a bachelor/bachelorette party, a business trip, or a multi-generational getaway. Our space is ideal if you’re in town for river tubing, antique shopping, live music at Gruene Hall, or celebrating a special event. Enjoy the freedom to keep everyone comfortable under one roof—well, two roofs! Amenities Include: • 2 Kitchens: Each fully equipped with modern appliances and cookware. • 2 Living Rooms: Separate areas for relaxation and entertainment. • 3 Full Bathrooms: Two in the main house and one in the casita. • Dedicated Game Room: Featuring giant Connect Four, foosball, and other fun games. • Elegant Parlor/Getting-Ready Station: Complete with full-length mirrors and comfortable seating for event preparations. • Ample Parking: A long driveway plus street parking provide space for multiple vehicles. ⸻ Location Our property is perfectly positioned in the heart of New Braunfels: • Walk to Essentials: A new HEB grocery store and a 24-hour Walgreens are just steps away. • Close to Adventure: You’re less than 5 minutes from the nearest tubing outfitter and a short drive to both the Comal and Guadalupe Rivers. • Local Attractions: In under 10 minutes, reach Schlitterbahn, historic Gruene Hall, Landa Park, and a host of antique shops, restaurants, bars, live music venues, and wedding locations. • Ideal for Exploring: With easy access to both San Antonio and Austin, your adventure can extend beyond town if you choose. ⸻ Guest Access & Additional Information Your booking grants exclusive access to both houses, the courtyard, and all on-site amenities. Check-in is seamless with self-service codes provided prior to arrival (standard check-in at 3 pm and check-out at 11 am). Other Highlights: • Pet-Friendly: Bring your furry companions along—just be sure to include them in your reservation. • Optional Shopping Service: For an additional fee, we can have your fridge and pantry stocked before you arrive. • Historic Experience: While our property’s charm is timeless, its age (nearly a century old) means you may encounter a few delightful quirks. ⸻ Book your stay at our hacienda away from home and enjoy a relaxed, comfortable experience that feels like a big ‘ol slumber party—with a grown-up twist. Discover New Braunfels in a way that perfectly balances modern amenities with historic character. We look forward to hosting you! ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Ice maker - Kitchen island - Kitchenette - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 3 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Games - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 2 pets total (up to 50 lbs per pet) ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Things to do - Arcade/game room - Foosball table ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/94000000/93240000/93232900/93232833/d4f8d431.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Faust Haus at the Guadalupe with a hot tub !

May 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Very Happy We were impressed with the houses. Exactly as the pictures. The floors creeked and we didn’t mind it at all. AC works great on both houses. Patio is gorgeous. We parked both our trucks inside the gate where the patio is. There’s also parking in front of the house. Will definitely stay here again. ##### Monica A.
