Excellent host

The host is excellent and took steps to address concerns in a timely manner. Location is great and water is access is great. The property is starting to show age, but as long people are okay with this, we would recommend it.

Wonderful Spot!

Beautiful spot on Lake Austin. Paddle boards, canoes and kayaks were provided. Property was clean. Plenty of towels were provided which is nice since we swam in the lake and took advantage of the hot tub at night. Check in/check out was super easy. Perfect for a weekend getaway.

Great backyard and lake view from the deck

Had a great time. The dog absolutely loved the large backyard and easy access to the water. The fireplace was amazing when the temps dipped at night. Would stay again.Communication from the owner was great as well.

Trip was OK

Great location on quiet side of lake. Older house, but in decent shape. AC went out first night we were there. Host was easy to get in touch with and had someone out the following morning to fix. Luckily it was cool that night so wasn’t too bad of an experience. The last day we were there a group of guys unexpectedly showed up to fix the boat lift. That put a dent in our final few hours as we had to say inside with the dog and couldn’t use the boat dock. Overall the trip was OK.

Awesome stay

The views off the back porch were amazing! The canoes, kayaks, and paddle boards were awesome! And there were plenty of life jackets/oats to choose from. The kitchen was well stocked, though it was missing a spatula. The A/C was sufficient for our needs. Overall, a great place to stay.

Loved our stay! Perfect location. Maybe some anti slip strips of some sort on the deck and dock staircase would help. A guest and I both slipped and took a tumble on the dock.

Great Memorial Day weekend stay

Stayed here with wife and 4 boys (ages 5-12), and our dog. Check in and directions were all great. Property location is pretty much unbeatable Mix of calm and serene in the early and late hours, and as close to the water as you could possibly want. Great water toys, fantastic weekend had by all. Would definitely come again.

Lovely!

This was our second stay at this lovely place, and once again, everything was fantastic. We absolutely love the backyard and the easy lake access—perfect for cooling down in the Texas summer. Have you ever considered renting out the backyard and lake access separately, similar to a 'Swimply for lakes' option. We definitely plan to be back!

Beautiful view of the river

We had a wonderful stay at this property. The host was very friendly and communicative. The view of the river was amazing. The kitchen was great to cook in. And the location was peaceful but close enough to drive to Austin for activities for the kids. Overall we really enjoyed our time there.

A solid weekend

We booked for a somewhat last minute 4 day, 3 night stay. The house was quaint and as pictured, but the dock was a bit more dilapidated than the photos make it look. Thankfully the covering laid down over the wood made it possible to walk around the top and we covered some of the older chairs with towels. Overall a good stay

Lake Austin

This place was amazing, it was very cozy and right on the lake. It had the most beautiful views of the lake in the morning and at night. It was perfect for my dogs. The canoes and kayaks or my favorite part about the trip! It’s close enough to down town if you wish for something to do at night as well.
