Kuebler Waldrip Haus B&B

A charming retreat in the country. Lovely old stone house with history. Greeted by. mother and son. In addition to our suite there is a large common space where refreshments are available and a patio where we enjoyed the breeze and a glass of wine. Breakfast was generous and delicious, visited with others staying there.

We were invited to an outdoor wedding taking place in Gruene in August -- the hottest part of a miserable Texas summer (2023). Groan! But we went anyway because it was our niece who was getting married. We found the "Historic Kuebler Waldrip Haus Bed and Breakfast" online and stayed there for two nights. We had a great time getting a personal tour of the 1800s buildings from Margy, the owner. We appreciate historic architecture, so it was fascinating to us. She knew everything about them down to the smallest detail, e.g., hinges, nails, etc. The cottage where we stayed with our mini schnauzer, Walter, was so comfortable. The bed and furniture were comfortable, and the Saltillo tile floors felt wonderful on our bare feet. Our kitchen was stocked well -- even with pint glasses in the freezer! Even during the hottest part of the day, when you sat and rocked on the front porch of the old schoolhouse, you'd get a wonderful breeze coming up the hill. We live in downtown Austin, so we REALLY appreciated the quiet, I mean quiet you'd "hear" in the middle of nowhere. In the shaded yard where we relaxed we counted at least a dozen varieties of birds, and a flock of wild turkeys came by every evening. The community room was stocked with wine, soft drinks, juice and homemade cookies. The breakfasts were wonderful, prepared by a chef who had trained at culinary school -- eggs any way we wanted, fresh berry cobblers, quiche, bacon, orange juice, fruit, you name it. So delicious. Best of all was the conversation around the big round breakfast table with lazy Susan in the middle. Margy and the other guests were incredibly entertaining and interesting. The wedding was OK, but this B&B was to DIE for!!!

We’ve been coming to the Kuebler Waldrip haus for probably 25 years with friends and family. Each time is so special. Our kids grew up coming here for so many summers. Such a special family and place. Darryl and his mom, Margy are the ultimate hosts. If you’re looking for a big party time, this probably isn’t for you. If you’re looking for a great, and I mean great, country or family place, this is for you. Breakfast is amazing and huge!! If you’re looking for a quiet place to stay where they truly consider you family, this is it. We cannot recommend the Kuebler Waldrip house more. Darryl, Margy - as always, thank you! You’re simply the best. See you again soon.

If you are deciding where to escape, it’s a short gravel road from their fence to a quaint historical getaway. We were only 10-15 minutes drive from everything we wanted to see and do in Gruene and New Braunfels. One of the best live music bars was less than a quarter mile down the road. Margy and Darrell are very warm and kind hosts and made us feel like we were visiting our favorite aunt and cousin. Chef Karen started our days with full courses of flavorful meals, being most cautious of any food allergies. The hospitality staff are pleasant and truly enjoy enhancing your experience. Margy knows all the best places to eat. Don’t worry about an itinerary, just take all of her suggestions. If you enjoy conversation with your coffee, she has history and humor for days. We told her she should dedicate a section on their website, although they were best heard in person. (She can even tell them in Spanish if you prefer.) We stayed in Kuebler’s Kastle and it was perfect. The spacious suite had a large amount of countertop, closet, and seating which allowed for extra breathing room. The comfort of this space was better than hotel options. We felt like we had our own home in the country and would have stayed longer. This was the best experience we have had which allowed us to truly detach and relax in a beautiful setting. We will be back soon for this great escape!

It was so nice coming to this place after driving around in the Hill country. Close to many nice places to visit. The Kuebler is so different compare the chain hotels. A glas on the veranda was perfect end of the day.

Very comfortable place to stay, great sunsets, and lots of stars...The breakfast was incredible. Hosts were friendly and shared some background on the property. Perfect place to relax and just let the day or evening go by. Perfect sleeping, no cars or night to contend with.

This was our second stay at this wonderful B&B in the hill country of New Braunfels. We enjoyed feeling comfortable and treated like family in a beautiful, sprawling property with top-notch amenities. The breakfasts were wonderful & filling enough to carry us through to dinner time as we explored the many shops & museums of both Gruene & New Braunfels. We highly recommend this family B&B for your next vacation. A special shout out to Mom, Darrell & Karen for another memorable marital get-away for both of us. We’ll be back!

Loved our two night stay here in Katherine's Attic room. Very cozy and clean. Wonderful breakfast and owners who were very friendly and accommodating. Enjoyed our morning conversations with owners...very interesting, warm people. Will definitely be coming again. Highly recommend!

We really enjoyed our stay. The staff and owners were very welcoming. They made us feel welcome and comfortable. Breakfast was very good each morning. We would stay here again for sure!! The property has a lot of history and is sitting on a beautiful piece of property in a great location!!!
