This is Lake Austin Retreat, a next-level lakefront getaway complete with a three-story boat dock that's perfect for launching off into the water—or simply taking a shaded seat to take in the lake breezes.
This brand-new build is stylish but not stuffy, family-friendly yet Instagram-worthy, with designer spaces inside and out that add a photogenic backdrop to your group's Lake Austin vacation.
All of this within a short drive to downtown Austin.
Lake Austin Retreat is perfect for lazy afternoons sipping cocktails on your elevated dock, but if you're itching for adventure, you can also hop in your boat and follow the river to Lake Austin waterfront eateries.
Bask in the lake breeze. Let our concierge stock Hill Country wine and beer for you to sip in the sunny outdoor lounge. A shady second story with a grill awaits your Texas-style cookouts, and a quiet patio is where you can steal a moment to yourself.
Enjoy waterfront dining (without a reservation). Get creative in a fully equipped kitchen with all-new stainless steel appliances. A high-top dining area makes serving meals easy. Linger as long as you like over dinner—from sunset to starry night sky.
Go explore. From here, the heart of Austin is just a short Uber or Lyft ride away! Catch live performances at renowned theaters and venues, wander the charming shops of South Congress, or sample some of the country’s best tacos and BBQ. Just outside the city, Hill Country awaits with beautiful views and five-star wineries and breweries.
Get cozy. There's nothing quite like kicking back. Find your spot on a cozy wraparound couch and fire up your favorite films on the flat-screen TV. Two full baths and three bedrooms offer flexible accommodations for everyone in your group. Bed sizes include a king-size master, a queen-size guest room, and a sleepover-ready bedroom with custom-built twin bunks that are sturdy enough for adults, too.
**The boat lift is NOT available for guest use. However, guests are welcome to securely tie up their boats to the dock at their own discretion.
Per the city of Austin short term rental ordinance the following rules apply to every vacation rental within city limits, with no exceptions: 1) Outdoor spaces are not available for use from 10 PM to 7 AM, 2) Parties and events are not permitted, 3) Occupancy limit of 6 unrelated adults

We’re water people so the location was a perfect get away. Would highly recommend it.

We really loved our stay here - the home had everything we needed and was so nice to be on the water to watch the boats go by. We were also about 20 minutes from everything we wanted to do. Really nice stay!

We planned a family vacation by the lake w/ hopes to relax, "unplug" & enjoy some time on the water.
The PROs - Family area, kitchen, bathrooms & bdrms were clean, spacious & well-appointed with nice furniture & up-to-date amenities. The indoor/outdoor living spaces were lovely. We were steps from the water/deck/boat dock. The management company was readily accessible thru the app. Overall, this was a lovely home with all we needed with a few exceptions.
The GLITCHES: At this time, it was extremely hot outside (multiple days with 100+ temperatures).
1) The A/C Condensor units failed on the 1st night. We contacted the management company in the am & they sent a maintenance person to install 2 portable window A/C units that afternoon. He did a nice, clean job but the materials failed & the cardboard/duct tape pulled out of the window around 2 am the next night. Another HOT night. The next day, the management company sent out a professional a/c repair technician who said major work needed to be done to the units BUT the work had to be authorized & could NOT be done any time soon. Meanwhile, we had to check the portable units throughout the day & night to ensure the seals not pull away again. The home never truly cooled down.
2. A boat is pictured (& a review stated it was nice to use), but neither boat nor the boat lift was available.
3. Ants in bathroom (looking for water?)
4. Multiple random packages were delivered to home. We pulled them in & placed them in hallway.

The property was very nice with beautiful view of the lake. Pellet Grill and Gas Grill worked well. The trees need to be trimmed walking across the skywalk to the boat house / deck. Screen on sliding glass door is broken. Not a problem though. Needs a cork screw for opening wine.

the triplex deck makes the house!
The house is small, but efficiently laid out. Its the outdoor space that really makes it a standout.

Perfect lake house
The house is exactly like the photos! We loved every minute we had at this place! The management was so easy and responsive to work with. They handled any questions we had right away. Couldn't recommend more!

Visit with adult children
We took a private plane from Philadelphia and were looking for a Covid free place to socialize with our children who live in Austin. This place offered a very relaxing and quiet location on lake Austin; beautiful views, comfortable house although a bit funky with the electronic controls. Took a while to figure things out. The outdoor area was exceedingly comfortable, but we had to spend some time cleaning up the cob webs on the deck. Not because the property wasn’t clean, perhaps more a factor of being on the lake? Only suggestions: Need storage space in the bedrooms to unpack clothes and instructions on how to use controls and TVs.

Labor Day weekend retreat
We had a great time staying here. It is a tranquil location on the lake. The multi-story dock is great for hanging out and spending time on the water. The house itself is on the smaller side but it doesn't matter as you will be spending most of your time outdoors anyways. We would certainly book again!

A wonderful week on the lake.
A beautiful home, nicely appointed, and a great boat dock. We spent a week on the lake boating the entire time. Would highly recommend this property. We’ll be back if it’s available again next year.

This is a beautiful home!! Just like the pics! Great dock with lots of living space! The staff was great and always a quick response with questions. If you don’t like stairs check another rental.

Perfect Social Distancing Vacation
The house has a great layout. Perfect for two families of four. It was clean and provided everything we needed for our stay. The property management was very help and responsive. The house is right on the lake. Waking up and jumping in the cold water was a great way to spend the day.

We actually live in Austin and just wanted a change of scenery. This was perfect. It's not far from town (about 25 minutes to downtown) and the property management company and concierge service are very responsive and helpful. We even had a question on a Sunday and it was answered quickly.The property looks like the pictures and the beds were super comfortable. The only "complaint" we have is that the deck railings on both levels were covered with cobwebs with bugs caught in them. Lots. (I would say this area probably needs more attention than it gets, but I also think the fact that it's under a ton of trees probably makes this happen quickly) - I would have cleaned them myself, but I couldn't actually find a broom. That said, the house itself definitely felt clean and taken care of. And the outdoor space is really beautiful and has plenty of comfortable seating up top.We are already talking about booking another stay!

Perfect Relaxation
As always the property was immaculate. The location is wonderful, secluded yet 10 minutes from stores and restaurants. The 3-level pier deck is the perfect place to hang out, read a book and sip a glass of wine or enjoy sunset dinner. This is our go-to in Austin for a wonderful getaway! Thanks for sharing!

Great Weekend!
We had a great weekend at this home and Key Concierge helped us set up some fun things that made it special. This home is small and decorated very well so it makes it very cozy. It was also well stocked in the kitchen so we had everything we needed to get a family through a weekend. Beware that there are a lot of stairs between the dock and in the house. Our legs were sore from going up & down stairs all weekend and we are very fit bikers/runners. So may not be great for those with any physical difficulties. But, was a great rental and we would rent here again for a weekend of lake fun.

Beautiful Lake House!
Overall we loved this house. Had a slight issue when we arrived of our code not working but it was solved in a matter of minutes! Few more stairs than we originally thought but the views more than made up for it. Fair warning, not much parking space or space to bring a boat trailer down. We had a hard time getting boat turned around but it worked. Would for sure stay here again. The views from the living area are amazing!!!

Very nice property!
The house is absolutely gorgeous. Smells and looks new! I love the view from all the bedrooms and the entire living/eating areas. The three level deck is perfect. You can choose to sit in the sun or shade and have a beautiful view of the water. Next time we will rent a boat to make sure we make the most out of our stay there. The management company is very responsive but we really had no real issues. I do want to prepare anyone who stays here to keep in mind that the outdoor area is literally impossible to keep spotless so do not blame the owners or the management company. It is absolutely inevitable that the outdoor furniture will have dust and the entire deck will get covered in cobwebs and spiders at night. I didn't realize this when we first arrived during the day and wondered why they had taken such great care of the inside and not the outside. I was frustrated at first and immediately started dusting everything off outside and cleaning off all the visible cobwebs and then later that night I realized why...the spiders come out at night and build the webs to catch all the bugs that are flying around the water. I will say it was creepy to have to walk past them but I got off the deck very quickly when I realized I was surrounded. This was only an issue at night. I didn't see any of the spiders (only the remains of their webs) during the day and it didn't interfere at all with the fun we had. I just wanted to mention this to prepare others. It will be the same with any other house you chose to stay at on the water in Austin so don't let this keep you from staying at this great place!

Fantastic property!
This property is really gorgeous! It was perfect for our girls’ weekend (there were 6 of us). Plenty of space, though we spent to majority of our time on the middle level of the dock. 😄

Peace on Lake Austin
We arrived right at check in time greeted by a darling hydrangea , treats and a spotless feels like new lake house filled with everything we needed for the long weekend. Fun aside, Austin Pizza is super close for first day noshing. The incredible HEB is so close at Beecave road and 360 as is one of my favorite Austin restaurant’s the Grove. We are a big family (4 kids ages 16 and up) and we all had ample room to gather without being squished inside and the outdoor 3 level deck gave us all a place to gather or have quiet time. We had our extended family come over by boat for a late afternoon Easter feast and truly it was the perfect venue. We made memories that will last a lifetime at this little hamlet. I only wish this place was ours always. Until next time Skislope....

It’s a clean property with great boat dock that accommodated a 24 foot wake boat.
