July 4th Weekend
Celebrating independence from Great Britain only to become what we despised. I wasn't there and you weren't there. Anyhow. It is going to be a busy weekend in the New Braunfels/Canyon lake area. I would book your hotel room last week. The Guadalupe and Comal will be packed so tight that you will not be able to see the water. Just a sea of skin. Of course I am a proponent of all activities in the area. Schlitterbahn and floating the river, taking the boat out on the lake. All good fun. When thousands of others come together it can be very miserable. If you don't like crowds, I would come during non-holiday weekdays to fully enjoy what the area has to offer. Coming on a holiday weekend may turn you off to what the area has to offer. As I like to do, I want to point out another great view/drive. Eagle Peak Ranch(North Canyon Lake). If you can find it, you are welcome to its view. There are many lots for sale and already established homes of which a minimum of 2,000 sqft seems to be the norm.
