Our family enjoyed all the property. We love to fish and caught several huge fish. The pool was very relaxing. Great place and very comfortable.
4.5
Foremost - Internet/WiFi is spotty, too many devices in house trying to be a Smart home without actually being one. Router on one end of long house, on top of water heater. There was very little access for tenants’ kids tablets, iPhones, iPads. Frustrating all of us all week.
Tv is difficult to operate. Written list of channels is useless.
Remote not avail for hardline tv in 1 bdrm. All remotes were hidden in fake books on bedside tables and it took awhile to figure out. Light switches in bedrooms are confusing and were sometimes in other rooms which was crazy.
If the orig. description had clarified that 3 bedrooms are connected & have to be traipsed thru we wd not have come here. The floor plan is not conducive to a group of adults who do not already live together.
Condensation in bathroom w Washer/dryer was dripping water on people’s heads from vent above sink.
Tile floors were sticky, dirty around dining table and in kitchen.
Back bathroom had hair and dust on floor and mats did not seem to be clean. The Toilet seat is coming off.
A large non stick skillet is needed in kitchen to cook for group.

Only 2 of the bedrooms are private. The other 3 you have to pass through another bedroom to get to. This would be fine for children, but not for us, as we were all adults, wanting our own private rooms. This was not mentioned on the listing! The house was clean, however some of the outside seating areas were covered in dust, spiders and webs, in particular down by the water. Lastly, on our first day there, the main drain backed up, flooding a bathroom and bedroom. While the response time was good for a plumber (about 2 hours) the host did not show up for about 5 hours, by which time we had cleaned up the bedroom and bathroom ourselves. There was no mention of any type of refund or compensation for our lost vacation time and labor. This was no small amount of water, flooding a solid inch into the bedroom, as we were outside and did not catch it immediately.

This house is beautiful. Every room is a great size. Plenty of space for parking. The kitchen is well supplied. I love all of the windows. The view is perfect to see a lot of the lake. Lots of seating on the back porch and on the water. The one thing to be careful of is there are no screens on the windows so bugs came in. Very comfortable home. We are talking about going back next year.

Our family of nine stayed at this superb house for three wonderful nights.
The check in was a breeze. The house and the adjacent guest house were superb in cleanliness and furnished with all the amenities for a comfortable and pleasant stay.
The bedrooms are spacious and furnished with comfortable beds and pillows.
I highly recommend this vacation home for supremely comfortable and enjoyable stay.

The problem with this property is the pool was UNUSABLE, hard to believe that in Texas with 100 + degreee heat the pool water was so cold no could use the pool.
Very disappointing.
4.5
House was very nice big enough for 10 people. Pool and outside fishing dock were nice too. We caught several fish. The wrought iron chairs on the dock were all broken, that was the only down fall of the trip. Otherwise it’s a great location, a lot of room, and a great place for a get together with family or friends.

The house and location were great. Beautiful location on the lake. The house was well equipped and had everything we needed. Everything worked great. The property manager was great and always quick to respond. Would love to go back again next year!!

This property is ideal for a family gathering. We all had plenty of room and great amenities!

Had a great time!! The facilities were wonderful!’

The house and property were perfect for our family. Definitely would stay there again, but not on a weekend. Weekend boat traffic yields rough water.
Plenty of room to spread out indoors and out.
Disappointed that the nearest boat ramp is 15 minutes away and the ramp conditions were not ideal.

This home feels like a home it is cozy but very expansive! The pictures are spot on. The kitchen and dining room are perfect for large family gatherings. The guest house was perfect for my parents who are in their late 70’s and needed to get away from the hustle and bustle of teenagers and kids all together at times. It was perfect and very clean all throughout.
Only cons: no hallway from game room to 3 bedrooms maybe the game room should be the front of that side of the homes bedrooms? But it worked out. Just had to be real quiet when getting up and others were asleep.
The kitchen has sufficient pots and pans as well as silverware but is lacking in utensils could use more grilling and large stirring spoons. Also a large strainer is not there. We didn’t discover this until it was time to strain the noodles for spaghetti but the strainer they had did have a handle and we scooped it out. It worked but a large strainer would have been ideal.
Also the pictures lead me to believe there were kayaks but they do not provide them. They can be rented but you have to transport them your self. Kayaks have been a selling point in the past.
The lake in front of the house is very heavily trafficked with boats and jet skis so just be aware for swimming and kayaking and safety. But it was manageable
Overall the only disappointment was the kayaks the home should provide at least one for such a large nice home most others do. Nice place!!!

We stayed at a different property last year. It was a much grander home but poorly maintained especially at the dock. We were hopeful this property would be a better fit for us as we spent the bulk of our time by the lake. We were not at all disappointed. The lakeside accommodations were awesome. Plus everything about the home was in great shape. The only downside to this place was if you are looking for private bathrooms. That said we didn’t go on vacation to spend the week in the bathroom and unlike the private bathroom the year before everything worked in these. Great property and well managed.
4.5
We really enjoyed our stay. Everything was really nice. The rooms are spacious and plenty of bathrooms. Plenty of towels and everything you could need in a kitchen. One thing to note is that although bedroom one and three have their own exit, bedroom two does not and bedrooms one two and three have connecting doors. So bedroom two has to go through bedroom one or three to get to living room. We used this to our advantage to be sure teens did not leave unattended on lake toys. I would definitely stay there again, we had a great time and man that dock is amazing!
4.5
The house was amazing for a big family, but there were issues. The AC on the north side rooms not cooling. The stove needed to be updated could only use 2 burners at a time. The lake was so busy with boats and jet ski traffic not able to swim. Pool was very small. The angle of the picture made it look like a bigger pool. The pool didn’t have lights so we could not swim at night. The waterfall on the pool worked part of the time. For the amount of money we spent for a 3 night stay. We expected all features to function properly.
4.5
This place provided our family with the most relaxing and fun vacation yet. With small children, it checked every box for fun.
The curb appeal of this property is really something! Huge fenced and gated front yard, great for playing chase and kickball. The lakefront is stunning. Decks and docks galore, with so many lounge chairs, some covered. Fishing at all hours was a blast. We rented a boat for a day, and had such fun. On the Colorado arm if LBJ, it was easy for those sitting on the dock to watch the water fun. Up the stairs and next to the house, the pool is the perfect size. So much comfy seating. We ate outside every meal!
The house setup was great. We used each end of the house as if they were suites. Ample bathrooms. We are the grandparents of the crew, and stayed in the little guesthouse. Nice and quiet at the end of the day. The only drawback was a tiny, tiny shower. But it wasn’t that important to us.
The kitchen had all we needed. The common spaces were big. Our group was 8 adults and 5 kids. There is also a game room, so when a few rain showers came, we moved inside and still had fun.
One thing drove us a little nuts. SO MANY SWITCHES and remotes…for window shades, ceiling fans and lights. A little too much of that for a rental, but again, not enough to change our impression of the place. We were outside all day.
We will 100% come again! Highly recommend!

Perfect spot for vacationing! Home was clean and organized. Patio was spacious enough for everyone to hangout at. Pool was very cold, however, still enjoyed it to combat the Texas heat. Dock was one of a kind and perfectly positioned to relax, sun bathe, moon bathe, fish, dock boats, and people watch as they partake in river fun.
Great time with family!
