NEW BRAUNFELS NEIGHBORHOOD GUIDE
River Chase deserves a property-by-property search. A home’s section affects the utility questions to ask, and private community river access is different from owning riverfront land. Compare the house, lot, services, association requirements, and your daily routes as one package.
The listing search covers New Braunfels; ask Cody to narrow it to River Chase. Guide reviewed November 3, 2026.
Short answer
River Chase is a custom-home community along FM 306 between New Braunfels and Canyon Lake. Its association describes a private Guadalupe River park and a clubhouse recreation area. Utilities and lot conditions vary by section, so compare the exact property rather than assuming all homes have the same services.
Use this guide to prepare a shortlist. Current listings, builder offers, association documents, and address-specific information determine what is available and what it will cost.
The POA distinguishes western Units 1–3 from eastern Units 4–10. It describes well water in the western portion and water lines in the eastern portion, with aerobic septic systems in both. Verify the actual service providers, equipment, permits, maintenance history, and any inspection needs for the specific home.
Compare driveway access, slope, drainage, easements, vegetation, and the location of existing improvements. If you are considering a pool, workshop, or future addition, confirm restrictions and site feasibility before assuming the acreage will accommodate it.
The POA identifies a private river park on the Guadalupe, plus a separate clubhouse recreation area with pools, courts, trails, and a pond. Confirm ownership eligibility, access cards, guest rules, reservation requirements, and any closures directly with the association.
A neighborhood river amenity does not establish whether an individual parcel is waterfront or outside a flood hazard area. Review the particular property’s disclosures, available flood information, drainage, and insurance options with appropriate professionals. Water levels and access conditions can change.
Obtain the current deed restrictions, architectural rules, association resale information, dues, and any outstanding compliance issues. For a home with private water or wastewater equipment, include service, testing, and replacement needs in the ownership budget.
The POA identifies Comal ISD; confirm campus assignments for the address and school year directly with the district. Drive the FM 306 route at the times you travel and compare the property’s taxes, insurance, utilities, and upkeep alongside its asking price.

Ask Cody to compare River Chase homesNo. The association’s private river park is a community amenity. Verify whether the individual property has any frontage or separate access rights.
No. The POA describes different water arrangements between portions of the community. Confirm actual services, equipment, and maintenance requirements for the exact property.
That requires review of the particular lot, easements, wastewater layout, deed restrictions, and architectural approval process. Confirm feasibility before buying for a planned improvement.
