About this property
Palatial Property Pairs Pool, Pickleball, Piano and Panoramic Views
Welcome to Mountain Trail Retreat from iTrip Austin, a huge vacation home with an Amazing View, Pool, Pickleball Court and two spacious decks!
This 4500sqft home nestled on the hillside above stunning Lake Travis is the perfect home for your family (or multi-family) vacation! You’ll have enough room to travel with the entire family or a big group of friends! This house has 5-bedroom, 4 bathrooms, 2 kitchens, 2 levels with spacious decks, a pickleball court, and a swimming pool. Space for everyone.
Your options are almost limitless! Imagine…. drinking your morning coffee from the upstairs deck (or maybe you’d prefer to be downstairs – multiple decks to choose from). Spending the day swimming in and lounging by the private pool. Playing a game of pickleball on the court. Grilling fresh fish at the outdoor bar. Watching the sunset from the upstairs deck. Roasting marshmallows over the firepit. Serenade your friends on the large piano in the entryway. This house has everything you could ever need for the vacation of a lifetime. (please note: Pool is open from April - October, closed November - March)
Upstairs you will find a huge kitchen amply stocked for your dinner needs, and a large dining table looking directly out to the beautiful water of Lake Travis. The master bedroom includes lake views and an en-suite with a deep soaking tub and standalone shower. The 2nd bedroom upstairs has a queen size bed and lake views. A formal living room completes the indoor portion for the main floor.
Downstairs you will find a 2nd kitchen, full-size washer & dryer, 2 bathrooms, multiple rooms and beds-galore! The layout of this home is ideal for multiple families traveling with children – adults upstairs and the kids down.
Part of the charm of this house is the location - nestled in the trees / hills. With this environment, there may be times when outdoor critters find their way inside, include scorpions and other insects, even with quarterly pest control. Be on the lookout for 'intruders' but understand that this will not be cause for any type of refund.

Wonderful
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Overall, our group had a great time. The location is fantastic and there is plenty to do on the property. I would recommend this property to anyone interested in staying near Lake Travis.
Booked this house for an impromptu guys weekend. The house house and it's amenities were perfect. Plenty of bed space and the outdoor area around the pool was perfect
The place was as advertised and really well cleaned and prepared for guests. Plenty of room for many cars to park and plenty of beds for people. The pool was supposed to be ready but wasn't, and the property manager never responded to multiple outreach attempts; though they did respond quickly when we asked a question before our stay. All in all, a great place to stay on Lake Travis.
We had a wonderful time at this home for a 30 year friend reunion! There was plenty of space, beds, privacy, and the best part for us was the outdoor patio with the most beautiful view! The home was so quiet, people could sleep and couldn't hear us laughing and having coffee on the porch. We used all the amenities but couldn't find the pickleball equipment (it was in the dining room, lol). We swam during the day and enjoyed the hot tub at night. The place was perfect for us, slightly dated but we didn't mind. The management was so responsive and accommodating as we had several questions. We recommend for your large group!
Upon arrival my sister was meet by a couple that stated they had the property booked for the weekend. She was questioned about how we booked, who we booked through, how long ago we booked & they knew the owner. The lady came & sat on the porch as if she thought my sister was lying. It was just her and my nephew the rest of us hadn't arrived yet. About 15 minutes of the couple's arrival & interrogation of my sister they left. The house was very warm, this is Texas in the summer. When you know guest are arriving, please lower the thermostat. The rest of us arrived at the same time & decided to go outside to swim & cool off after unloading our stuff. Went out around 4:30 pm, at APPROXIMENTLY 6:00pm I get a text from the owner/company of a neighbor complaining about the noise level, extra guest & the "sound of a party" This took me by surprise, the house was booked for 10. It was only 10 of us there, outside swimming, talking, laughing & enjoying each other. No one was overly loud, not to mention it was DURING THE DAY! We were told if another complaint was made, we would be asked to leave without a refund. My family takes this trip EVERY YEAR in memory of our mother that passed away 13 years ago from cancer. After that my anxiety was through the roof. I spent the rest of my time making sure the noise level was low.1st night there, someone beat on the downstairs door as well as tuned the breaker off/on. I notified the owner, no response. The house needs to be updated badly.
Check-in was seamless and we were wowed by the views and beautiful home. The kitchen lacked some basic essentials: minimal utensils, and no baking sheet or grill pan or mixing bowls.
This place has a great view of the lake! It really does have the potential to be a spectacular place to crash for the weekend. I still would recommend staying here if the level of cleaning and prep was stepped up. The pool towels and bath towels were set up nicely on each bed and the host was available all weekend and responded relatively quick. The only downsides I encountered were the pool (although said to have been cleaned) had a bunch of sand in it, there was mold on some beer cases that were left in the kitchen cabinets, some rat poop in one of the kitchen drawers, the hottub water level was low when we got there which effected the jets, the smoke detectors were missing ( which we didn’t mind because the smoke from cooking would have set it off probably), the grill outside had a bunch of rust on one of the grates sections, and the fridge was a little dirty upon arrival (nothing terrible though), the outdoor trash bins were still full when we got there so we had to put our trash on the ground next to it. They did leave us a complimentary bag of ice which was nice.

I give it a 5 stars on views
Overall place was nice with incredible views only problem the stoves wasn’t working we had to go downstairs to cook and bring food back upstairs but I made a call and maintenance can right out had a problem with neighbors said the music was to loud but it really wasn’t so didn’t understand that but overall Stay I will recommend to anyone just be super careful on the noise
We arrived at the property manager hurriedly cleaning the house--which was not clean. After a tough conversation, he admitted he had the house professionally cleaned before the homeowners decided to paint the house (how long before if they had time to paint??). I sympathize with the property manager that there was a miscommunication--and yet it is also his job to make sure the property is ready to go for the customers. After paying multiple thousands of dollars to stay here during Thanksgiving week for a special family reunion, I don't think it is absurd to ask for a clean place to stay. He offered to get the place professionally cleaned the next day, but we still had to sleep in it that night as is. My main issue is that he did not agree that it was reasonable to ask for a discount--which I did not understand was very disappointed by. I will say the property was fun to stay at (though a little run down), and we ended up having a great time playing pickleball and hanging out. Also, the property manager was responsive by message. Unfortunately, I did not think he handled the uncleanliness in a professional or respectful manner, and that will prevent me from recommended this place or this host.

Awesome House
Loved the views from the deck and the pool as great. The home was very clean, lots of space, and close proximity to Lake Travis. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
I booked this house for my fiancé's 30th birthday and wish it was better upkept. It was the only house available so I had to book it regrettably. I read the negative reviews and thought maybe the property management would have taken these into account by the time we arrived, but they did not. Everything said in past reviews were still an issue. There was bath products and soap for our use but no bath towels in the entire house. We had to use pool towels that were in one bedroom downstairs (nothing upstairs). The house says to clean when you are finished, but there are almost no cleaning supplies to be used. There are two ovens, but only one worked. The hot tub was dirty when we arrived, so I asked it to be cleaned and although I was told it was cleaned again that evening, it did not happen. For the price of the house I would ABSOLUTELY look elsewhere. The house is much to expensive for what you get. The views are great and the balcony is awesome. It is unfortunate that the house is not kept up better.

Beautiful Views
We enjoyed our stay at the house. Home was clean, comfortable, well-appointed, and just as the listing describes. iTrip was very responsive to our questions and provided outstanding service! Kids loved the basketball court and even thought it was too cold for the adults, the kids enjoyed the pool. Views from the top deck were spectacular. Will definitely be back this summer.

This property could be much better.
Expansive, beautiful view of lake, large open well furnished living room, kitchen & patio, great half court basketball court & nice but frigid pool which would have been great if heated, nice but worn hot tub on patio. Beautiful artwork in house. Convenient location to lake. Some cleanliness & bathroom fixture issues on arrival. Broken bathtub faucet was fixed on our second day & burned shower lightbulb replaced then also.The few towels there were old & frayed. Some the bathroom mats were dirty. Nice outdoor grill but hasn’t been cleaned in along time. Much of property in need of repair . Would consider coming back if necessary upgrades made.

Family Fun
Overall this was a great spot - million dollar views from the multi-level patio and outdoor grilling area. Lots to do with the pool + basketball court - perfect for large groups. We had a good time!
