Had tickets to the haunted Halloween murder mystery dinner. Located at the Abbott House in Seguin,…read moreTX. About an hour and twenty minutes from Austin. The House itself gives a rustic but creepy vibe which played backdrop to the evening's festivities that took place in the open air dining area. Cool evening air, picnic lights that hung about, the mood was appropriate. Some guests even came decked out in their Halloween best. The evening's burger consisted of a few well placed cast members and all the guests participating as some supernatural character. You were given a folder that held your name, bio, and a small list of objectives you had to complete before/and after the murder. The menu, was light. In hindsight, significantly over priced for serving size. Appetizer was a butternut squash bisque soup. That was pretty good!!! Entree consisted of a braised beef risotto over mashed potatoes. Bland but acceptable. Meat was tender, a bit salty. Dessert was pumpkin cheese cake. That was phenomenal!! I had two of those . The mystery was very enjoyable. For sake of the integrity of the mystery itself I will not divulge details. But I encourage you to try it. Great for an intimate evening for two, or a group

I'm very glad that they scheduled it here because it is a unique retro throwback. The folks working there were very accommodating and gracious. I didn't set it up or deal with them, only participated so I have no idea what the actual reservation interactions look like. We met in what appeared to be a country store straight out of the Walton's. It was a creaky old place with lots of nostalgia. Perfect for our strategy setting meeting for the future! I would recommend it as a different meeting place for your special meetings. Not a downer for me, but be aware that you will be meeting over quite a collection of various folding tables of different styles and eras.

It is an amazing location. We walk to our dinner reservations. They also serve wine in the lobby in the evening. The breakfast served in the morning was so good! The view from our table of the pool and the river was just beautiful. At breakfast, we all loved the yogurt parfait. It had crushed pineapple and kiwi. They had sausage, biscuits, and gravy, beautiful quiche, Pastries, so many beverage options. Everyone was so impressed. We all very much enjoyed our stay at the Gruene River Inn.

Let me start by saying that when change is made, it should be for the better. This has been a stop…read moreon our travel between family visitations on the I-35 corridor for many years. It always had a welcoming, rustic, hill-country feel to it that matched the surroundings. Our last stay I was really disappointed at the changes that had been made to the decor mostly because they make no sense and did not improve the property in any way. I sincerely hope that the owners did not pay for this decor design. It's pretty awful. (And kind of funny bc it's ALL over the place). What used to be rustic and charming now seems to be modern (gold fixtures, tiled shower, trash cans) asian (black trim, bathroom doors, headboard fabric), kitschy (lasso bedside lamps- that aren't good for reading and don't dim), with a 50's retro flair (the refrigerator and the blue tooth), and modern cowboy art on the walls. Yet, no one thought to include charging ports for electronics! It's so confusing. They pulled out the nice big tub and put in a shower that doesn't have a door and has a shower head with no pressure and no direction to it- so to say it plainly, it's difficult to get clean! Amongst all the changes perhaps fixing the toilet so it doesn't randomly run might have been a good choice. One of the reasons we use to like to stay were the delicious breakfast tacos that were provided. I don't know if they will come back or not as the lobby was under construction, but based on the decor choices my guess is they will make some equally terrible decision regarding the lobby and maybe do away with it all together? Who knows!What it has going for it is that the views are amazing (thankfully they couldn't change that or my guess is they would have)! The bed was comfortable and the towels were top notch. Maybe if you've never been before you won't find it as disturbing but I just had a hard time reconciling the fact that they paid to make the place worse. We might have to find different digs when we're in the area.

The Orchard at Spring Branch is one of my favorite places on God's Green Earth. Why? Let me count…read morethe ways. 1.   Rick (The Owner, Founder, and probable CEO). 2.   Rick 3.   Rick But beyond the incredible hospitality, if you are also concerned about the property venue and how it presents on a wedding day, trust me here--the space is a breath of fresh Texas air. Incredibly stunning: complete with actual Longhorns (who posed in the background for our photos) and heirloom Texas Prickly Pear. Don't even get me started on the cost of wedding venues in Texas. Rick is reasonable. Read that--beauty on a budget. I'm not sure how long this will last since Rick is new to the wedding venue game. The only "issue" is that Rick loves first. People who love first and love well make decisions for brides that put the bride first. Not the business. I truly can not count all the ways he blessed my particular bride, because they wouldn't fit in a Yelp review, but what I can tell you is that if you have any need, please don't let him give it to you for free. That kind of man. Y'all, we need affordable wedding spaces that take your breath away. But, yes, we also need caring business owners who value the person above the place they represent. Rick represents his family, his business and his clients' needs beyond what is industry standard. Think, far beyond. Case in point: I actually had to remind him to cash my check! He was holding it until we got paid, and then I think he may have even forgotten we hadn't paid yet. Bless his heart! The following are actual quotes from our experience: "Didn't y'all already pay me the deposit?" Rick asked. "Yes, Rick. You held the check but it hasn't cashed. Thank you for working with us," I told him. "Oh. Okay. Let me check with my wife. She handles that." Rick is building and curating this space--one auction house and trade show at a time. I can't wait for you to see the lovely stained glass windows he just installed near the bridal suite. Speaking of which, the bridal suite is fit for a Queen. The Orchard was the first venue we toured for my bride. My bride had already toured multiple venue spaces before when her sister got married a few months prior. Everyone on our side of town agreed: this space was just as beautiful and more in line with homespun Texas/elegance core. Think twinkle lights at night with a dance floor built under the stars. A place for romance that becomes real on a very special night, where two souls knit together as one. I promise this can exist outside of a book. I've seen it with my own eyes. Please go tour here. Especially if you are looking for an expansive outdoor space. If your vibe is more formal, there is a climate controlled indoor dining hall where more sensitive guests can spend the evening. I'm sure, like us, you will tour other places. But, if you're also like us, you will do a complete 180 and high tail it back to the Orchard at Spring Branch. Thank you, Rick. You are a gem of a human. We are grateful beyond measure for your grace, your love and the beautiful sanctuary you've worked to create. May you continue to find joy in offering your utmost for His Highest. With deepest respect, Ally and Blake's Mama
