My friend and I stayed at the Casitas at Gruene for my 61st birthday trip! The location was wonderful! We floated the river one day, but decided to enjoy the beautiful river access that the Casitas offer the rest of the time. Just follow the winding path down to the oasis that awaits you on the river's edge! The whole set-up was perfect, complete with bbq pits, fire pits, beach chairs, floats, kayaks and so much more! Each Casita has its own wagon to help you transport all your belingings down to the water, so you can enjoy your stress free day! The Casitas at Gruene are just a short walk from downtown Gruene and close to several yummy restaurants. We had a great stay and can't wait to come back!!!
