The Nook NB | Near Downtown & Gruene • No Pet Fee • Fenced Yard

Bring your pup and settle into your own little corner of New Braunfels—no pet fee! The Nook pairs 1950s charm with a large fenced backyard, pergola patio, gas grill, and a cheerful retro kitchen. Two queen bedrooms, an additional trundle bed, on-site laundry, and covered parking make weekends and longer winter stays easy. Enjoy downtown dining, explore historic Gruene, or simply slow down with coffee on the patio. Winter Texans and four-legged travel companions welcome!

ROOM TO GET COMFORTABLE

The Nook’s personality shines through its retro kitchen, decorative cabinetry, wood floors, and colorful touches. The living room offers generous seating for movie nights, reading, or catching up after a day out.

Two inviting bedrooms each feature a queen bed, with an additional trundle bed in the second bedroom for flexible sleeping arrangements. Two full bathrooms, both with walk-in showers, make getting ready easy.

Gather at the dining table for a home-cooked meal or a game of cards. The kitchen includes a refrigerator, stove, oven, microwave, toaster, and coffee station, making it easy to enjoy breakfast at home or cook with finds from the local farmers market.

BRING YOUR FOUR-LEGGED TRAVEL COMPANION

Enjoy fresh air together in the large fenced backyard, then settle into the outdoor seating beneath the pergola while dinner cooks on the gas grill.

Please supervise pets outdoors. The fence may have openings a determined pet could get through.

WINTER TEXANS, MAKE YOURSELF AT HOME

Looking to trade your usual winter routine for time in the Texas Hill Country? The Nook has the everyday conveniences that help a longer visit feel comfortable—your own kitchen, on-site washer and dryer, Wi-Fi, and covered parking for two vehicles.

Spend your days browsing local shops, enjoying live music, exploring New Braunfels history, or finding a favorite lunch spot. Then return to a quiet, established neighborhood where you can unwind between outings.

EXPLORE NEW BRAUNFELS & GRUENE

Choose a different kind of day whenever the mood strikes—

• Historic downtown New Braunfels for dining, shopping, and the year-round Saturday farmers market.
• The Sophienburg Museum & Archives for a closer look at the town’s German heritage.
• Landa Park for shaded walking paths, Comal Springs, and outdoor time.
• Historic Gruene for distinctive shops, a meal at the Gristmill, and live music at Gruene Hall.
• The Comal River and Schlitterbahn for warm-weather adventures, subject to seasonal operations and conditions.

H-E-B, Walgreens, and nearby dining options make everyday errands convenient. Easy access to I-35 also puts San Antonio, San Marcos, and Austin within reach for day trips.

YOUR OWN SPACE, AN EASY ARRIVAL

Guests have access to the home and yard, a private driveway, and covered parking for two vehicles. Keyless self check-in lets you arrive independently, with your entry code provided before your stay.

Whether you’re here for a quick getaway, a family visit, or a longer winter stay, The Nook gives you a comfortable place to come back to—and a warm welcome for your pup.

Please help us care for our quiet neighborhood by respecting our neighbors. If you need anything during your stay, your host is a message away.

Sweet, quiet and comfortable and clean.

We have enjoyed our stay there twice now in this adorable home. In September of 2024 and now in November of 2024 to visit loved ones. The walk in showers are ideal for my Mom in law to use and our dog loves the back yard.❤️
