Short Summer Trip

The property was beautiful and clean. So many rooms and a pool table on the main floor. The apartment next to the house was nice as well, but the Queen bed was uncomfortable and hard. The rest of the rooms and beds was very comfortable. The boat ramp was directly around the corner. Great property! Will stay there again!

Perfect Labor Day get away!

Spent 4 days at this amazing property. It’s very clean and super spacious. The teens enjoyed the garage apartment and the fold out couch was a bonus! The main house has so much room and our party of 9 felt right at home and everyone had a great amount of private space. The lake is low but it didnt hinder our fun. The views are gorgeous and we loved all the outdoor spaces. We will definitely be back!

Amazing vacation house!

The Great Escape is really an amazing place. we were looking a house closer to San Antonio and found this on VRBO, never expected such a beautiful location. Very spacious three story house. 2 days was not enough to explore this location. backyard and lake view is fantastic! Three beautiful balconies, Don't miss the sunrise with a cup of coffee from balcony. One bedroom apartment on top of the garage is completely private and fully equipped. This house will never disappoint your dream vacation plans.

BOOK THIS HOUSE!!

My husband and I booked this house with our grown kids and their friends ranging from 18 years old to 30 years old. There were eight of us total and this house was absolutely perfect! We had plenty of space to spread out and enjoy our time without even touching the garage apartment. We cooked almost every meal at home and spend way too many hours on the pool table. We loved seeing all of the deer in the neighborhood and watching the boats from the many balconies.

Pretty views, hard to sleep 11

We had a great time staying at the property with friends and family. The views are beautiful. We did not have Wifi upon arrival and called the next day to get it working, stayed on the phone with someone who walked us around the house for over 15 minutes or longer with no luck. We left for the day and when we got back the Wi-fi was working. There were no wash cloths in the master and limited everywhere else in the house, we requested more but did not receive them. We had two families of 4, so we had plenty of room, but in order to fit 11 I believe two people would have to sleep on couches? The property is beautiful and we enjoyed our time.

Awesome Birthday Getaway

We celebrated my son and wife’s 35th and 55th birthdays and it was awesome. The house was immaculate and the garage apartment was definitely a bonus! The house had everything we needed for a great getaway. Definitely recommend it!

The Great Escape at Canyon Lake!

Beautiful home! The lake is gorgeous! The views from the three patio/decks are spectacular! Checking in was easy! And we thoroughly enjoyed our stay! I wish the WiFi was stronger, the built in ice maker worked, there were throw blankets to use, a portacrib was available and a larger trash can in the master bath. We would definitely book again.

Beautiful home

Great Escape is a perfect title for this house. We stayed for a week and enjoyed the beautiful views of Canyon Lake. The house is really beautiful and it has a lot of sitting area to enjoy the views. There’s space to spend together as a family and plenty of space to spread out.
