About this property
Lake Haus on McQueeney
Beautiful Waterfront 4 bedroom 3 bathroom home on one of the most desirable parts of Lake McQueeney. We offer a fantastic lakeside deck and upper deck perfect for entertaining friends and family. The upper deck has a large 6 burner gas grill, dining table and a gas fire table (our happy place is an evening glass of wine + tapas taking in the river view by the fire). The lower dock offers lounge seating, picnic table, and an easy to use Bluetooth sound system. There are also several fishing pole holders and some of the best fishing in south Texas. We aggressively treat for mosquitoes (doesn’t mean you won’t see any but they are not a huge problem). We are one of the only places around that offers a water mat, kayaks and paddle boards for use (2 kayaks, one of which is a 2 seater and 2 standup paddle boards); you can enjoy a leisure fishing kayak or go for a miles long paddle workout on the morning glass of the river. The waterfront is also very usable at night...enjoy fishin' in the dark or flip on the flood lights to completely illuminate the deck.
We know that a big day at the lake can take it out of you - Absolutely nobody in the vacation rental business takes your sleep more seriously than we do! We believe that 2 people should never share a bed smaller than a King, sofa sleepers are absolutely unacceptable, quality beds save your back, and rooms should be dark enough for everyone to sleep in as late as they like. ALL bedrooms have legitimate room darkening curtains or blinds. We have also added the convenient touches like outlets close to each side of the bed, and plenty of pillows. The sleeping setup is 3 king beds and 4 twin beds divided into 4 bedrooms. We also have 2 additional twin mattresses slid under beds for use in whatever rooms you choose (there is also a full size crib available for use in the master bedroom, and a pack n play that can be used elsewhere).
The Lake Haus offers abundant parking with carport and driveway space for up to 9 cars.
The Lake Haus will always keep you entertained and includes Giant Jenga (made with 2 x 4's), a large shuffleboard table and three big screen TV's. The home is artfully decorated with a clean, classy rustic feel and quality furniture. The home has a very open and light feel, making you feel comfortable and at home from the time you walk in. The living room wall is covered with wood reclaimed from a local Texas dance hall. The kitchen is stocked with a large coffee maker, keurig, microwave, toaster oven, blender, slow cooker, quality pots and pans, and sharp knives. There is also a large cooler available for use.
Lake McQueeney is stocked with catfish, sunfish, white crappie, spotted bass, and large mouth bass. We are close to everything! Less than 10 miles to Schlitterbahn, Gristmill, Gruene Hall, lake Dunlap, lake Placid, New Braunfels, Comal River and Guadalupe River.
The Lake Haus on McQueeney is in the perfect location and has absolutely everything you will need for an amazing vacation! Bringing your own boat or jet skis? Please reach out to coordinate parking. $150 fee for use of a lift (pending availability). We also have a slip with no lift available for no charge. Monthly rates in the off-season available starting at $5000 per month. Inquire to find out more.

Collin and Rachel's attention to detail in their rental is unrivaled by any rental we've stayed in. From the most comfortable beds to all the water toys and outdoor amenities you could want, this place is perfect for a relaxing friend/family getaway.
Loved the place! The owners clearly know how to live the lake life and we loved experiencing this little city in their place. Spacious for our all adult group but has all the extras for those traveling with kids too. It was easy to relax in this peaceful little neighborhood. Thank you so much for letting us stay and for all the extras provided to make it a full experience for us.
Loved everything about the Lake Haus!! Pictures do not depict how amazing this home is inside and out- they have thought of all the details, large or small to ensure a great stay!! Plenty of space and all the amenities you could think of- even though lake low, water still very enjoyable and loved that it’s private not like being in New Braunsfels on top of everyone- able to float, kayak and paddle board! Definitely check this Lake Haus out for you family!! 5 stars for sure!!
We used this home as a quick last getaway before school started. We floated the river and did some school shopping. This home was perfect because it was NOT in the hustle & bustle of the city, but still close and the kids (and adults) could be on the lake while we were not on the go. We had 12 people in our group, kids and adults, and the home was perfect for us.
This house was everything we needed it to be. It was clean, well kept and had space for everyone. The game room was great and there was a lot to do for everyone. The lake equipment was super nice to have and all the kids had a blast. We loved the mornings on the deck and enjoyed the views. The property itself is so unique- the kids loved the cows, quail and neighborhood cat. The house was well equipped and we had all the pots and pans necessary for cooking and preparing food. We highly recommend this house and will hopefully be back soon!
My family stayed at the house and we all loved it. It was right on the river and the owner provided paddle boards to enjoy our stay. The house was nicely furnished and had everything we could need. The owner thought of everything! We loved seeing the deer across the river and the cows across the street. It has a lot of well-maintained stairs which was my 2 year old granddaughter’s favorite part. Just be aware that it has a lot of stairs. Thank you for all the little extras. We had one minor issue but the owner contacted me immediately and it was fixed in a few minutes. We loved our stay. My granddaughter said it was beautiful and amazing!!
Four generations of our family stayed at the house the week of Thanksgiving. We had 9 people at one point and we weren’t cramped. It’s a cozy, older home with many updated amenities.
Being on the river was another reason we selected this property and it exceeded our expectations. A lot of thought was given to the outdoor living space and enhanced the peacefulness of the river.
The property is away from the hustle and bustle of the now very popular New Braunsfels and yet close enough to get there in minutes.
The owner was amazing, very responsive and he is another reason we would book again.
This lake house is everything described and more. It’s a true lake house experience, but with space to spread out, clean bathrooms, and comfy beds. Our group had a great time. Our advice: read the labels. They are a treasure trove of info.
Tiny thing: water pressure is weak. But it didn’t deter us, just takes a bit longer to shower.
And there’s no dishwasher. So we took paper products for meals. And lined pans with foil for easy cleanup. We did use the mugs and glasses, but they wash up fast. Just plan ahead. It’s the lake, after all.
The hosts are fabulous. Very welcoming and helpful. We highly recommend this house and would go back in a heartbeat.
We had a great time and everything we needed for our stay. The kids packed in a lot of fishing and paddle board. The beds are all super comfortable and plenty of space for everyone. We would definitely stay again.
Our stay at the Lake Haus exceeded all expectations. The house fit our family of 11 perfect, with plenty of sleeping room for everyone. The provided paddleboards, water mat and kayaks were the perfect bonus to fun family time in the river. The hosts were very communicative and have put a lot of thought and detail into the house, to make the stay fun and accommodating for guests.
The kids refused to leave the water at Lake Haus at Lake McQueeney! We had an awesome time, the number of great beds and comfortable twin mattresses was really appreciated, and yes those blackout curtains work well!
The Lake Haus was everything we expected and more! So nice and relaxing to stay in a place that the owners put extra thought into their guests comfort! Thank you Collin and Rachel for providing a great experience for our family!

The Lake Haus was perfect for our family’s first river trip. There were 7 adults and a 9 month old. All the accommodations were wonderful, the house was beautiful and the owner was so wonderful working with us and accommodating all of our needs. A beautiful home!!
Absolutely incredible stay!We had the best weekend at this private lake house! The property was peaceful, beautifully maintained, and had everything we could possibly need—and more. Even though the water level was a bit low, the hosts went above and beyond to make access to the lake super easy and enjoyable. We spent hours in the water and had such a fun, relaxing time. You can tell the owners put a lot of care into making this a welcoming and well-stocked getaway. We can’t wait to come back!
This property was more than we expected. Nice sized rooms, comfy beds, and immediate, private river access. The use of Kayaks was great, water was a little low, but refreshing, and the fish were biting. Overall great time and we will be back. Thanks Collin!
We had a fantastic time at the Lake Haus! House is wonderful and well taken care of and accommodated our group of 12 easily. The water is shallow but the addition of the lower deck made it easy for us to get in to swim, kayak, paddle board, etc. My girls loved getting to explore the river and the adults loved getting to hang out together on the large shaded deck. Great weekend in a beautiful home!
We had a wonderful 10-day stay @ Lake Haus. We would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a lakeside rental. Our adult kids and our two grandkids (ages 7 and 10) loved it too! The beds were VERY comfortable...better than most hotels! Collin, the owner, was very easy to work with and was so accommodating to all our needs. If you are considering renting on Lake McQueeney, RENT THIS ONE !!!
