We've stayed at these condos for our summer river float weekends the last 4 years and each year we get disappointed a bit more. Pros: you can get on the river from here and fairly affordable. Cons: lots of collage age kids so super noisy at night and mayhem, sofa sleepers are miserable so don't put an adult on them and even though you pay $150 cleaning fee the floors are gross and the bottoms of your feet will be black from walking on them. This is our final summer staying there and we are already looking at alternatives for next summer. We've stayed in 110B the last two summers. read more

Heck yea!! Great place to stay, but only 4 stars because they are super pricey for a small condo! Location is AMAZING!! Right next to Landa Park--the "top" of the Comal...two great entry points for the river to float! While the complex boasts a No Pets rule, there were several dogs in site with different tenants/renters. Decent pool, but who needs that when the beautiful river is easily accessible!! read more

Loved watching all of the wildlife at night. Great view of the river. Nice location. However, their alarm and internet were constantly going off and going down, so that was super annoying. read more

Great location within easy walking distance for Wurstfest. Our unit was 2 bedroom and was clean and everything worked fine. Bed was fine. Towels were a big skimpy but workable. Did not use the kitchen. read more

Truly enjoyed this location. Had a chance to hang out with my son, play games, swim and even play a game of life. That's right, the true game of life. read more

If you are looking for a nice quiet relaxing place to stay just off the Comal River, THIS IS NOT THE PLACE FOR YOU!!! If you are looking for a place that keeps all the other people up till 3:00 a.m. or a place where people scream, yell, hoop & holler all night long or a place that resembles a drunken frat house, this is your perfect place!! The entire stay was horrible! There is no respect for anyone else staying at the River Run Condos. It doesn't make sense to have rules if your not going to enforce them. I spent over $1,200 to stay here for 2 nights and I feel completely ripped off. The condo is dated, the beds is absolutely the worst I've ever slept on. The best thing I can say about this place was the AC worked. We feel so cheated! I am so disappointed!! Chalk it up to another lesson learned. read more

Although the condo was small we slept 8 people comfortably. They have grills and tables right on the river with a nice green space. We went with family and their condo was 2 doors down so that was nice. It was a holiday weekend and I was surprised how much space we had to spread out without being on top of other groups. read more

River Run Condos were great! It had everything we needed. The location could more have been more perfect! The unit we had was perfect for us. There were several tube rental places across the street, so you just walked over to rent your tubes and then hopped on in the river. At this end of the river, each tube rental place picked you up in shuttle buses and brought you back. Several of the tube rental places offered discounts if you were staying at River Run Condos. We will be back to this place. It was very relaxing. The staff at River Run was very friendly and knowledgeable. read more

My family of 6 had an. Absolute blast at River Run for 5 nights starting on 6/21/18. The place was really busy, but security is fantastic. They do not mess around regarding non guests crowding the pool or parking lot. I thought it was overkill until I got there and then It was very appreciated. The condo was VERY clean, beds were comfortable and had everything you could need? Bring your own towels for water activities! The laundry room was nice and a very big help! Best thing about this place is the location!!! Right on the river! Accross the strret from two different tube rentals should you need them. You can drop into the river right there on property. Right around the corner from Landa park, schlitterbahn, down town, gruene. We had a blast! read more

Security was telling guest how to sneak in friends. Unable to reach our third floor room the last night due to inoperable elevator. No one answers phone after 5:00 pm or weekends and no one in office during business hours. Very disappointed when considering the cost. read more

This place used to be amazing. This year however the property management has changed to a new company. The service was absolutely horrible and not family friendly at all. For example my whole family had to go back home for a funeral. They told us if we removed our wristbands for the funeral that we would not be given replacements and would not be allowed onsite for the rest of our vacation! They even made a child walking back from the river stand at the gate while his dad ran back up to the room to get his child's wristband that he just forgot to put on. They treated the father like a criminal and trying to sneak a kid onsite. A CHILD!!! This is a real shame this place used to be the best on the river. I hope the Home Owners Association HOA sees this review and others and get a new property management company. read more

Great place to stay with access to the Comal River and convenient to Schlitterbahn. Rent a tube across the street and secure your ride back, then walk to the river and jump in. Great location. read more

We have stayed at River Run many times over the past 20 plus years but the unit we were in this last time had so many issues that spoiled our time there. Recommend not reserving unit 214B unless the owner fixes all the issues I emailed River Run management about yesterday. Unfortunately, River Run management has yet to even acknowledge my email outlining all the problems the owner needs to fix. in addition to issues that are the responsibility of the owner, there were no towels in the unit when we arrived on July 14. called the office and towels were brought to the unit but, clearly, the housekeeping activity was flawed. I had been waiting for River Run management to at least acknowledge my email sent 24 hours ago before posting a review but, since they haven't, I just want to warn people about unit 214B. The bed mattresses are very uncomfortable To the point of causing neck and shoulder aches. After the second night, we went to the store and bought Blue Emu to try to relieve the pain. The door to the small bedroom can't be opened all the way and you can't get to the closet because the bed doesn't fit and is up against the closet doors. There is a walkway light right outside the bedroom window that stays on all night. The light shines through the curtains so the room is lit all night. after the first night, we hung a bedspread over the window to block out the light. if you have people in your group that need to sleep on the sofa bed in the living room, be prepared for the room to be filled with light all the time. read more

We stayed here over the weekend for my brother's birthday and LOVED it! Great prices, even better when it's not tubing season....we literally walked from the condo down to the river (we usually put in right across the river at the same point!) Jana was very helpful in the reservation process, and even when we had a little run in with some of the people staying there giving us a hard time (instead of just asking to see our bracelets, they acted like we were trespassing even though we had told them which condo we were renting)....Jana made everything better and promised to say something to them. We will definitely rent from them again...it was a great experience! this would have been a 4 star review...but..... ******* The above was my review before I saw the $200 charge on my credit card.....the fee was $130 plus 13% tax....turns out there's a $50 cleaning charge per condo.....which is in all of the wordage at the bottom of the confirmation email. I was not told about a $50 cleaning fee prior to that...seems to me that if you're going to charge people a fee as steep as $50, you should let that be known BEFORE you've agreed to renting! read more

First I have to say we LOVED THE CONDO AND PROPERTY.... We didn't love the staff in the office. One person in particular, from check in to check out she was an issue. She was rude had an attitude. We arrived to the condos early and wanted to check on check in times and day parking ect. The gates were open and there were no security at the time. We pulled into the gates and as we pulled up in front of the office She met us out side telling us to leave the property and to park out side the gates. I tried explaining to her we have reservations, and to that she just kept saying until we check in to get off the property. As this was our first trip to the river and to these condos we had questions. We left and drove just across the street to Landa river rentals and parked there. As check in was not until 4pm. We decided by a bus pass and float until the room would be avlb. As we loaded the bus to come back to Landa after our float I revived a call from the nice young lady at the office telling us that both rooms were ready and we can check in early. We unload at Landa rentals and the 4 adults and 5 children. (One of witch has a heart condition and one is autistic) proceed to walk across the street to the condos. Myself and the other mom and leading the way and again we are greeted and told to stay off the property by Beth. Again explained to her we had just revived a phone call to check in early and that we are just trying to check in..... she then proceeds to continue to tell us that only 1 person can come onto the property everyone else must wait out side of the gate on the street.... So I ask her "you want my kids to stand on the street while I check in" she says yes.... I firmly tell her no. My kids will stand right here out side of the office out of the way but within my view. She proceeds to continue on demanding we leave until one of us gets checked in. I walk into the office and ask the lady in there to start getting me checked in and thanking her for the early check in call, i telling her what condo we are in, as she starts to get the papers Beth walks in and says I will take care of them. She grabs everything from her and proceeds to tell me " she doesn't have to put up with people like me" I calmly told her we have a choice as well and as a first time guest this is the 2nd time she has rudely demanded my children leave the property and I have done NOTHING but try and check on rules and check in times" She finally finished chewing me out and checking us in and we leave. At this point my kids are embarassed, I am embarrassed, I am mad and upset with how she treated me and my kids, no one really knows why she has been so rude. We get settled into our room and try to enjoy our weekend. However, after meeting and chatting with 6 different families and groups of people staying at river run EVERY SINGLE PERSON had a similar or worse experience with Beth. As a first time guest I am not sure I will return to ths place regardless of how much we LOVED the price, accomidatioins, and people there based simply on the way she treated us and almost everyo be there . It's just a sad situation. This place in general is AMAZING, the set up is great, the property is clean and security does their jobs and are nice , but there is. one person who ruins it and I hate to see that. read more

Best place to stay on the Comal River! AMAZING location. They have 1, 2, and 3 bedroom condos available that will suit anyone's needs. Condos are clean and fully stocked. The management team is located on-site, and will assist you with anything you may need. Be sure to have all forms and drivers license turned in ahead of time to ensure a quick and easy check in! read more

We stay every summer and love it. Family of 5 and my kids look forward to our summer visits. Never had any problems in the past 8 years of going. Will continue going every summer too. If you arent into a louder crowd then go during the week because kids will be kids. The security guard does a really good job at night with keeping the noise on the grounds under control. read more

Room 306A. First of all it's a like a college dormitory wearing wristbands. Towels provided are hand towels. The bathtub fills up before you can take a shower. The entire bathroom was soaked. Parking lot is also like a college dorm. The master bedroom mattress squeaks so loud when you move around. The mattress is also hard. The twins in the second bedroom are so small and they were both tilted. They had to sleep worried about ending up on the floor. For the cost I would pass. read more

The condo was fine and everything was clean. I find the cleaning fee and the rules of conduct both within the condo and on the property to be in line with what I expect in New Braunfels on the river. What got them the four stars was the customer service. When I asked for a detailed receipt the lady in the front office told me she could type one up no problem and would have it ready for me the next morning at 10:00 AM. I was skeptical. However, when I walked into the office the next morning she just smiled and handed me the receipt exactly as I asked for it! Well done! read more

We don't recommend at all. We came down for a senior trip and decided this was the best option. WRONG. Wayyyy over priced. Our room could sleep 8 people we got 2 car passes, 2. We came down in 4 cars. We weren't allowed ANY guest. Ridiculous. We have friends and family that live down here and they weren't allowed on the property. The guy chased my dad through the gate (that still had an orange arm band on) & on top of that having a car pass still freaking ridiculous. I'm sorry you guys are over priced and you have people working the gate that act like mall cops. Do not recommend this place. At all. Over priced not worth the time or the bs of the parking issue. read more

Rating may be higher if the after hour emergency phone would be monitored and replied to as it states. I believe frozen water pipes in the condo would constitute an emergency. The longer they remain frozen the more potential damage they may leave in their wake. read more

Have been staying here for years. Love it love it love it!!!! Great river access. Great pool. 120D is my very favorite!!! read more

Very hard to make a reservation, I would send emails and leave voicemails for Beth (manager). I ended up canceling and just paying the $100 cancellation fee although I never even filled out a contract. Still going but staying somewhere else. read more

We travel to new Braunfels every years for a teachers weekend away. We have stayed at several places, and this place was the best for all of our needs. We did everything online as far as renting the condo, and had no issues with our check in. We arrived late to NB and they were able to leave us a key in a lock box. Because we rented the larger condos we received three keys and three parking passes. River Run Condos do have a lot of rules, but it's what you should expect if you're visiting the river, ALL places do. They only allow people who are guest of the condos on site and that's totally understandable. The condo was filled with everything we needed from crockpots to ironing boards. The condo said that it slept 10, but we only had six people in our group and we were completely comfortable. We were able to get in the river right and float until the exit. We paid five dollars to a company across the street for wristbands to get us back to the condo. They were there, picked us up right away and dropped us off at the condos, with minimum walking. Check out was easy and the young lady in the office was super friendly. My only complaint is they don't supply enough trash bags, but that's something we can plan to bring the next time we visit. Other than that, we had a great experience and we plan to return again. read more

We are paying $900. for the weekend stay and we were refused parking at 1:30pm. Check in (early) is at 2pm, regular checkin at 4pm. The front desk girl denied parking and called security on my husband so he would be forced to move out of the parking lot. Customer service is not good. We've stayed here in years past and the rooms are fine, customer service is very bad. read more

The condo was fine and everything was clean..... However, the manager lady was TERRIBLE.....please get rid of her. There were 5 of us, all girls... that Friday night this huge drunk guy accosted us and assaulted one of my friends by pouring beer all over her.. There was NO Security to be seen so.....and we called the "emergency" number as advertised on the door, it was maybe 10:30 Some half dead, woman answered the phone upset with us for calling her about this "non -broken toilet" emergency...Questioning the truth of the matter because we called her first as opposed to the police. It took them the security guard about an hour to arrive..... The next day she kept calling us, inquiring why we did not call the police and what we thought she should do.... What I will do is stay somewhere else next time. read more

5 stars! Beautiful vacation spot! We have been several times and it's always so relaxing!!! The pool and hot tub are a great way to end your day after being on the river!!! read more

Pros-The condo we stayed in (120) was gorgeous. Cons-it was expensive, there is a cleaning fee AND cleaning chores you are required to complete before you leave, and they have a "no exceptions" policy if you choose to cancel--even if your 6 year old child is in the hospital. I could have gotten by the fact that we were given a condo with a dirty coffee pot, a full dishwasher, no trash bags and no toilet paper, but really, the cancellation policy is what got me. No matter how much I liked what the owners did with this particular condo, I will never pay to stay at River Run again. read more

This place is terrible. We were met by an angry security guard immediately upon driving up to the gate who demanded to see our wrist band and made us park in a separate lot. We saw the property manager when we drove in, but she made us wait twenty minutes in an empty office until she decided to check us in. Then, she wouldn't let us check in until our whole group of six was standing in the office. Management and security treated my friends and family like crap. The check in process is one of many things that are extremely wrong with this place. I'll never return. read more

A friend was renting these condos and we came to check out the place because we had the intention to rent as well. But a rude lady by the name of Beth who was a property manager. Came over and harassed us, I'm sure because we were not of the proper color. While harassing us about not wearing wristbands we pointed out other people who were not wearing wristbands and in the property's pool and she ignored the fact we were pointing out to her and continued to give us a hard time. We identified who we were and what we were doin, and how we were working with another property manager who's awesome by the way her name is Sandra. In fact we called property manager while being harassed and the property manager asked to speak with the one (Beth) giving us a hard time and she refused to speak with Sandra AND Beth complained about Sandra not calling her immediately we told Beth we'll we tried passing you the phone and u refused to talk to her. So if ur looking to book please contact Sandra But as per Beth, who's rude I would never recommend anyone to book from her. PS! Beth we have our wristbands on and come by on the weekends when u should have to see all the trespassers who were here if u want. Also I'm only leaving one star cuz I have to leave a star but if this was a Sandra review she's a 5star read more

I spent my 30th birthday here. Had a large group and rented several condos. All were nice and clean. Management was very accomidating. Loved having the pool, grills, and river!!!! So convienent to everything. Any special requests were taken care of promptly and security was very nice and helpful. Will be back for sure. read more

We winter at the River Run Condos and love them. I go through VRBO to find private owner. Has always been great. We have no interaction with management company. Can't speak to security as it's non existent during winter months. read more

Came here about 3 years ago for the weekend. It was August. The condos were jam-packed. A bit noisy at night with all the college age kids partying out on their balconies. The pool was okay, could have been bigger. The hot tub was okay as well, could have been bigger. Too many drunk college kids trying to get a little too friendly in the hot tub. The lady working the front desk was very friendly when we checked in. And was very friendly when we asked her about places to eat around town. First impression of the building was that it looked a little old. Not run down but just a while since their last remodeled. First impression of the room, the room was decent size. Had a queen bed in one bedroom and then bunk beds in the hallway. Had a small kitchen with a refrigerator and microwave and stove top. Also had a small living room with a flat screen TV and a couch and a dining table. The balcony had a table with chairs. There was the bathroom with a shower tub . The accommodations of the room were decent. I thought that it could have used an updated remodel. The room wasn't run down but just like the building itself, I thought could have used a more current remodel. The plants was conveniently located right on the river. In right next to a place that rented tubes. If you stay here you get a token which allows you to get free tubes. If you float on the river, I suggest doing it earlier in the day. If you wait until 1 or 2 in the afternoon, the river gets to look like the Katy Freeway on a Friday afternoon at 5. You can literally walk on the tubes across the river. When you get to the end of the river the condo has a bus that you can ride back on that will drop you off at the tube place next door. The price was just over five hundred bucks for the weekend. I think for that kind of money I would like to shop around and see if there's any other more modern places to stay at. One nice thing is if you get there early enough you can park in the parking garage. read more

I'm only rating this place as a 1 because there is nothing lower. Property management is terrible across the board. Security Gaurd at front gate acts as if he is running a prison compound and is an a@";h'le! The condo itself was disappointing and there is a never ending frat party going at all hours. Not at all a family friendly place. Very Dissapointed and would NOT recommend this place to anyone. In a word "Sucks" read more

Terrible. The "security" was incredibly rude and not at all helpful. One of the men at the gate told us that even though we did not have tags, we could park in the garage. Then they threatened to tow our cars because we didn't have enough tags (they only gave us 2 and our condo sleeps 8). Also, a long time friend who lives in the area was not allowed on the property because he did not have a wrist band yet they let dominos on the property without a hassle. Would not recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing vacation. read more

This place was great. The condo we stayed in was clran, nicely decorated and stock with just about everything we needed. We enjoyed the pool and the comal river view. We came in off season and management was very flexible with us since they were not fully occupied. The service we received was fantastic by both ladies I dealt with in the office. I am just leaving today so I will repost upon my receipt of my deposit if anything happens. read more

Planned a nice weekend get away to float the river. Decided on the convenience of this location. Went through an AirBnB host to rent a condo. Unfortunately last minute the AC went out in the unit. The host was gracious enough to pay for the higher cost unit available through the Condo HOA to rent through the weekend. I don't know if the manager on duty (Beth) was having a bad day or she is just ignorant to the definition of sublet. But she decided that what we were doing was a sublet and against HOA rules. The original AirBnB host would provide the funds while my name is on the lease. If the host had her name on the lease and provided funds with no intention of staying there then yes that would be a sublet. But my name was going on the lease. As we were all already in town and half of our group was already in another condo on the property we had limited options. The manager in the office for no reason that we were aware of, decided that we could not just pay for one ourselves. That "we were up to something". While I agree with the right to refuse service to anyone have a little compassion. We were at the bad end of a faulty A/C and an unreasonable, uncaring, and unconcerned management staff who needs to pick up a dictionary in order to enforce policy correctly. read more

So incredibly dissapinted with the staff at River Run on this trip. We have stayed at River Run for several years, we've enjoyed making amazing memories with our kids at this place and have never had issues...UNTIL NOW. Today we floated the river early waiting for our condo to be ready. We finished our float, and were across the street from the condo, the office called to tell us our condo was ready so we said ok we will be right over. We are traveling with another family who had never been to New Braunfels before and we were so excited to share the experience with them and their children. So we walk across the street to check into our condo and this woman...Beth...comes charging...literally charging, towards our family and starts yelling that we can't be on the property. Wait, didn't you just call us to say our condo was ready? She says you CAN NOT come onto the property with out wrist bands. Ok well you just called us for check in so how do we get wrist bands if you won't allow us onto the property? She says you can come onto the property to check in but everyone else has to wait outside on the road! We are traveling with FIVE children one who has a heart condition and Beth is yelling at them telling them to leave the premises. There are tons of people coming off of the river who've been drinking all day and cars driving everywhere but she wants our children to wait outside on the road while we check in. By this point our kids were scared and I was really angry, so I walk into the office and am subjected to further badgering by this woman. She starts telling me all of the rules for the condos and I said that's fine I can read and my children are outside alone so I really just need to get back to them...she then rudely tells me that I will stand there and listen to her finish taking! I won't go into everything else that she said but we will NEVER be staying at River Run again, multiple other families and couples have told us they had similar experiences with Beth and their check ins. This trip has been absolutely horrendous and we are so embarrassed to have highly recommended River Run to friends just to have them treated like criminals. I work in mortgage and my job depends on how well I treat my customers...after paying over $800 to stay here for the weekend I am appalled at how we have been treated by this woman...it's incomprehensible to me how someone like this is still employed in a customer service role. Just my 2 cents, spend your money elsewhere and don't allow this place to ruin your river fun. read more

The condo we stayed in was clean and cozy. It was in a great location to the river. We just walked down to the water, jumped in with our tubes and started floating. The condos are just around the bend from "the chute" which is great fun. The reason I'm giving a 3 stars is that there are train tracks about a block away and the trains run all day and night. I was awoken both nights around 4 by a train that blew its horn as it passed. They do charge a $85 cleaning fee which they told me about in advance. Not sure I will go back because of the train. read more

I started vacationing in New Braunfels over 30 years ago and have stayed at many different places on the river. River Run is by far the BEST! The location is perfect for floaters, being above the chutes, just get in your float and enjoy. There are three tube rental places across the street, just in case you didn't bring your own. River Run has a beautiful pool/hot tub area by the river with huge trees shading the picnic tables and BBQ pits. We have been to River Run many times and have always had a great experience. The ladies working in the on-site office were extremely polite and very helpful. The grounds are always manicured and the condos are well kept and clean. They are all decorated differently and accommodate small or large groups. My family and I really enjoy going to River Run every summer, but recently my husband and I decided to go for the weekend, just the two of us. We had a great time! New Braunfels has so many things to do all year. We went to the Farmers Market and Gruene for some great shopping during the day, enjoyed some amazing Chinese food and then to Conway's for some live country music and dancing. When we returned to River Run, we sat on the balcony and enjoyed the view. The lights were beautiful all along the river and the deer were just walking around everywhere! So beautiful and peaceful. read more
