Near Historic Gruene + River ⎜ Renovated ⎜ A+ Backyard ⎜ 1 Acre Lot │ BBQ Grill

Will’s Haus is a renovated home on an acre lot in the spacious and tranquil Preiss Heights neighborhood.

A 3 minute drive to HISTORIC GRUENE, the GUADALUPE RIVER, and conveniently located near all that NEW BRAUNFELS, TEXAS has to offer (Schlitterbahn, Comal River, Wurstfest, restaurants/nightlife, and more)!

This is the perfect location and home for families and groups wanting to enjoy beautiful New Braunfels, Texas!


— THE HOME —
Will’s Haus is a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom 1,700 sq. ft. home that offers an updated and stocked kitchen with counter seating for four and a bar area, two dining spaces, and a spacious and comfortable living area with a 75" smart TV and double French doors leading to the private backyard.

Top notch stay

We have stayed at several vacation rentals in NB and were disappointed. Will Haus was top tier and we will definitely be looking to stay here again as we travel to the area often. Amy and Evan have thought of everything when it comes to this property. The kitchen is stocked with every thing you might need for cooking. Great open floor plan for visiting! Just a lovely place!!

Great home and marvelous location!

We had a wonderful time staying for a weekend wedding! The house is beautifully appointed and an easy car ride to Gruene. The owners communicated with us before and after and were very helpful. We highly recommend this house when visiting New Braunfels.

A gem!

It was just what we needed, a clean, wonderful space to enjoy the area(Schlitterbahn and Gruene) from. The kitchen was easy to navigate, HeB nearby. And our kids enjoyed the selection of board games. We look forward to returning!

Girls Trip - River Float

Perfect house for our group of 8. Super clean. Large spaces to spread out. Convenient. Actually slept 10 without the ‘trick’ of sofa’ like some say. Great sturdy adult bunk beds. Didn’t squeak with people climbing up and down. And real mattresses thank you. Gladly called dibs on a bunk bed, no sharing lol. Only suggestion at all, few full length mirrors in bedrooms. Just needed little more mirror time with 8 women getting ready. Absolutely!!! Stay here again!!!!
