✅ Our home is located in a peaceful countryside setting on a spacious half-acre lot. There is a small two-step staircase at the entrance.
✅ Please be aware that wildlife such as deer, skunks, hogs, and other animals may be present in the area.
✅ We are conveniently close to Lake Dunlap, just a block away, with Schuman's beach boat ramp a few blocks away for easy access. The recent repair of Lake Dunlap's dam has restored the lake to its full levels, providing great opportunities for fishing, water skiing, wakeboarding, and wake surfing.
✅ Fireplace is only for decoration, we DON'T list it as an available amenity in the listing and we prefer you not use it do to insurance, safety and liability issues. We also don't have a water line to the fridge, so we only have ice trays, no ice maker.
✅ Cactus Haus is 6 miles from Schlitterbahn and 9 miles from Gruene. During the busy season, it may take 15-20 minutes to reach Schlitterbahn due to summer traffic.
✅ This property has special local compliance requirements which include a signed rental agreement, ID verification, and a security hold of $1000 (which is not a traditional security deposit, just a pending transaction). As an optional alternative to the security hold, you may opt in to purchase a non-refundable damage waiver provided by a third-party insurance company. The optional damage waiver is $39 for stays up to 10 nights, with an additional $2 per day for stays longer than 10 nights. Damage waiver purchases are optional.
To make this process easy for you, we use a secure and very simple, app-free platform called Happy Guest. It is not an app, and you do not have to sign up for an account - it’s a safe and secure website. It also gives you a guest portal with all the info about the home and all of my favorite local spots.
