Enjoy the serene and private home and lounge in one of the decks. Your family will enjoy playing games and/or sharing a meal overlooking the lake viewed from the large living room windows and the decks. End your day on the deck and enjoy spectacular sunsets! Star gazing at night can also be quite breathtaking.

Hi we really had a pleasurable time. The accommodations were up to par. The effort to locate your lodge was not unreasonable. This Colorado River was a bit disappointing. We were able to find a public fishing area with some extensive effort. Perhaps next year will bring better water levels to the River.

We were excited for our week at the lake until we realized there are no lake views. The host noted the water was low but we all felt the pics without any water should’ve been the first ones in the posting. 0 out of 3 of us said we’d return to the property for another stay.
THE GOOD- cold ac in the house, comfy beds, patio/deck space, view of the fireworks on the 4th, close to The Oasis, Starbucks, Target, and HEB, fresh cold water gallons
THE NOT SO GOOD- lots of small rolly pollies in the downstairs bathroom, shower head fell off the wall downstairs, we had to buy our own toilet paper and paper towels because there was only 1 roll of paper towels and really low quality TP, the steep and uneven HIKE up and down to get in the house(not ADA compliant), the pillows, not all rooms have AC(sunroom and upstairs office are hot), minimal/no spices, foil, charcoal, and other kitchen items so we had to buy all of these, no way to Uber or Lyft because the house is too hard to get to so we’d go places in the day and stay in all night, and also not the best communication from host. We messaged him the first night because we couldn’t find some light switches and lighting. He called immediately and said to call for anything any time of day. When we text to ask for paper towels we didn’t get a reply until we checked out and he said he just saw about the paper towels.

Had an amazing time at this property, it was perfect for our group. The hosts were communicative and kind before we got to the property and quickly answered our questions when we asked. The property itself is beautiful, and gave us the perfect getaway we were looking for. Thanks so much!

This property needs a lot of work & cleaning. We saw several small nasty roaches & other bugs. We never felt comfortable in the house. The property is older & needs a major overhaul & cleaning, it’s not easily accessible for small children or elderly. It’s not easily accessible from the street. It really doesn’t have a spectacular view it’s not worth the walk! However, the owners were nice & friendly!

House is nice and clean. Very strenuous to get to. Tons of steep stairs. Very small shower. Still waiting to use the kayak and go swimming. No lake at all.

Had a beautiful time. It was the perfect place for me and the Ms. to reconnect and bond. We watched movies , we watched the sun set on while sitting on the patio, cooked good food, had the best wine and just enjoyed the quite in the hills.

Can't speed or be too dark to find property. I was warned about the upper driveway it is a doosey. But overall we had a good time relaxing in the open air

We celebrated our son’s 50th Birthday. He lives solo in Austin, but no room to celebrate. We live in Kentucky, so we needed to figure out where and how to celebrate with him and his friends. This was the perfect solution! The owner very generously allowed us to invite guests other than just the few of us who were staying overnight, and we had a perfect celebration! Everyone loved the setting, the view, the outdoor decks, and the lovely setting inside. Kids could run off their excess energy outside! Thank you so much to our hosts!

For the price of just one room at budget hotels, it was awesome to be able to house five adults in a private home with great views and room to relax. Could have handled one more guest. As the owner clearly emphasizes in the description, trying to park up top is not worth it for most vehicles.

Tons of fun, but didn’t know Lake Travis has had no water in the backyard of this property for a long time

We loved the home and the location! The hosts are so lovely, kind and warm to interact with. Make sure you ask them for things to do around the area.
I’d definitely visit again and would recommend to anyone who’s looking for a relaxing house!

Great Lake home minus the lake. The house was great but the weather and drought limited some of what we wanted to do. I would come again

The house is in good location. Owner did warn there's no water and very dry. But only 2 posted photos about it. Should have had more photos showing the dry and drought. The photos showing water were old shouldn't be on the properties listing page.
Parking is tricky and rough driveway. Wish had photos showing it to expect rugged way in back of properties.Upper and lower driveway are steep like 45 degrees. A dolly would help if known in advance.
House interior is nice & clean. Upstairs shower had some sewer smell like 5 minutes showering.
Owner was friendly and talked thru with confused parking .Thank you.
Other than that the stay was fine. Our family would have had more fun if there were water in the lake.

Communication with property owners was great, check in and check out process was a breeze. The house had everything we needed and slept 7 adults comfortably. The weeds around the stairs leading up the house needed to be mowed down to make it a bit easier getting to the house, other than that everything was perfect.

The sunset views were gorgeous. Sitting around the Fire pit and sitting on the dock were both awesome and relaxing ways to end the day! House had everything we needed and was a great location - 10 mins from everything. Hosts were also very communicative and accommodating. Would stay again!

We had a great time at this house on the lake! It was very clean and fairly spacious! The shower head in the downstairs bathroom kept falling off the shower wall, but other than that, it was comfortable for us.

Beautiful location on a lake. There are a lot of steps which was a bit of a surprise, it would be better to mention more prominently for guests who are coming with elderly family members. Comfortable beds and well supplied kitchen. We enjoyed the kayaks and fire pit.

Location location!. The home had a sewer smell outside and in the add -on room where 1 bath and the laundry were located. Unusable 2nd bath.
Older home- linens, and towels were acceptable.
One kayak had a hole which we didn’t discover until rescue was needed. A boat was kind enough to get passenger & kayak home.
View of the lake was very beautiful. Parking is on a lower level so there are lots of stairs. The steep drive was impossible to navigate so we carried everything up.
Once the smell is mitigated, it is a fun location-

I think the draw to this property is definitely the view. The house sits atop a high hill and the view is amazing from the deck. The interior of the house left much to be desired. It could use a lot of TLC. With work it has the potential to be an amazing rental property. Also, while we were there the city code inspector came out to the house twice around 10p.m. as the house was not licensed to be rented. That was quite the experience. The owners did compensate us for the inconvenience but nevertheless, an uneasy interaction with city authority.

This is my second time to stay at this property for a family vacation. We liked being able to bring our boat and leave it at the private dock. It makes boating so much easier when our boat is already in the water. Since this house is a four bedroom, there was plenty of room for our adult children and their “significant others”. The renovated kitchen served us well for our meals, as well as the grill and deck. We made s’mores from the fire in the natural fire pit. We feel secure there in the gated neighborhood. There are a lot of treacherous stairs, but they lead to a fantastic lake view. Though the house wasn’t perfect with some creaky floors, a small shower, and a staircase where you may have to duck your head, we found it the perfect space for our family vacation two years in a row! The owners have continued to take good care of us and communicate well.

My girlfriend and I stayed here for 10 weeks and were delighted with the choice in doing so. It's about the closest to the city of Austin while simultaneously being on Lake Travis. We got to be immersed in nature with the luxury of still being close to grocery stores, restaurants and other things. The communication and attentiveness from the hosts was great throughout.

Bathrooms a bit outdated and kitchen could be doing with more cooking dishes and utensils. Other than these little things, the house was great and we really enjoyed our stay. My kids, who are all adults, loved making a fire for smores each night. We would definitely stay here again
