As we roll into fall, New Braunfels stands tall as a great place to be in both the fall and winter.Wurstfest is an annual 10 day festival that pays homage to the German culture, with a highlight on sausage, beer, fun and games. This year Wurstfest will be held starting Friday, October 29 and ending Sunday, November 7. If you have not yet made plans to come to New Braunfels for this great event, we still have plenty of cottages and RV sites available. For a small fee there is a service called Wurstwagen that will take you to and from Wurstfest.
In addition to Wurstfest, Gruene Market Days will continue to be held throughout the fall and winter on the third weekend of the month, starting October 15, November 19 and December 17. Nearby Gruene Hall continues to provide great music to our town.
The rivers are still open for business as well. The weather is great, the rivers are full and open for tubing. Please visit our website for links to local river outfitters.
The fall and winter provides a great time for our northern guests, a.k.a. Winter Texans, to descend on our city to escape the much colder temperatures up north. Here at Hill Country, we welcome hundreds of visitors from Canada, as well as many northern states. More and more people have now heard great things about New Braunfels and are opting to stay here for an extended length of time instead of driving much further to the Rio Grande Valley. With our 2 heated indoor pools and hot tubs, along with loads of activities, Hill Country RV Resort is a great place to spend the winter. Please call us or visit our website to find out information for longer term stays this fall and winter.
Even though Schlitterbahn is now closed for the season, families still are opting to come visit us because of all the activities we now have in place for kids. Our Jumping Pillow and Aero Ball games are now installed, as is our new store. Additionally, we have a great new game room for kids that includes a Wii, Xbox and Playstation3 in addition to several table games- pool, bumper pool, air hockey, shuffleboard and ping pong. Additionally, be sure to visit the historic town of Gruene, Natural Bridge Caverns, Natural Bridge Wildlife Ranch, Snake Farm, Dry Comal Creek Vineyards, nearby San Antonio (Sea World and Six Flags Fiesta Texas) and so much more. We also are a very short drive to both San Marcos and Austin and all the activities those fine cities have to offer.
Please call us at (830) 625-1919 to reserve either a cottage or an RV site. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Be the first to see the new creations of this very talented husband & wife team, who will be in the gallery during the opening reception. Demonstrations by Linda & Rick will take place on Saturday, October 2nd from 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm. Their “Fall Fantasy” show will be on display & available for purchase through Saturday, October 16th.Linda & Rick, of Spicewood, have been represented by Artisans at Rocky Hill since the spring of 2009. The work of both artists has been popular with gallery guests & their work is favored throughout the Texas Hill Country, New Mexico and beyond.
Linda’s art is a combination of fantasy and representational realism. Most of her brightly colored acrylic paintings evolve from her imagination. Linda’s flower paintings are impressionistic in nature while her “hard edge fantasy” pieces combine the surrealistic world of dreams with her own mind’s eye. This intriguing style created by Linda is reminiscent of Gustaf Klimpt pattern wise, and poster like in its rendering. Linda’s work is always from the heart and will produce a mood when it is viewed.
The art of Rick Hewitt combines copper with fire and chemical treatment to create interesting and colorful adornments for the outdoors. Texture is hammered into the copper by hand and colors are the result of a special chemical burn. Rick’s Copper Wind Dancers along with hand-created feather clusters have been very popular with gallery visitors. The beautiful Hill Country where Rick lives has influenced his nature oriented colors and designs. New sculptural designs in copper will be presented during the “Fall Fantasies” show.
