How do I rent tubes?
Access to our tubes is complimentary during your stay. You can get directly into the water from our Fernweh Riverfront property, which all Fernweh guests can access. If you desire to float the river, we will make arrangements with one of our outfitter partners for a nominal shuttle fee (tube is included). When making your reservation, let us know if you would like us to make arrangements on your behalf.
Is there an on-site bar?
The Fernweh property is home to Billy Goat’s Gruff, the only float-up bar & grill on the Guadalupe River, located between the 2nd and 3rd crossing on River Road in New Braunfels, Texas. The bar operates Fridays and Saturdays from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Fernweh guests have access to the main grub shack, and tubers can simply float on over to the river’s edge bar to place their food and beverage order – never having to get out of your tube! Forms of payment accepted: cash, card, ApplePay, and Venmo!
Is Fernweh a good place to stay for fishing?
Yes! We are the perfect vacation rental for trout fishing on the Guadalupe. The Texas Parks & Wildlife Department stocks the Guadalupe River with trout WEEKLY from December through February every year. Don’t delay - book your guided trips with the best outfitters on the river:
