Sobre este casaalquiler
The perfect family lake house made even better by the fact that it is floating!
Notas del propietario:
1) No se deje engañar por el bajo número de comentarios. No es nuestro estilo pedir una revisión, somos de la vieja escuela, pero nuestro libro de visitas rebosa de comentarios deslumbrantes. Quizás quieran mantenerlo en secreto. Hemos tenido muchos cientos de alquileres con cero quejas. Hemos estado en VRBO desde su infancia, cuando era realmente de igual a igual.
2 .. Es una cabaña. No hay encimeras de granito, no hay televisión de pantalla grande con todos los canales.
3) No es realmente "amigable para los niños", ¡pero a nuestros niños pequeños les encanta!
Por supuesto, todos dirán que su lugar es el mejor. Pero te digo que este es realmente el alquiler más exclusivo, el mejor y el mejor valor en Lake Travis. Es tan único que Austin Statesman hizo una historia de tres páginas sobre nosotros. Las fotos y las palabras simplemente no le hacen justicia.
Parte House Boat ~ Parte Lakefront Cabin, pero mucho mejor que ambas. Es un poco como una casa flotante, pero mucho más barato (como unos 3-4x más barato) y mucho mejor. Es una casa de dos pisos, tres habitaciones, de tamaño completo (pequeña), con todas las comodidades, que flota en el agua.
En el frente, hay una gran terraza con una mesa de picnic de gran tamaño a la sombra para la mayoría de las tardes calurosas. La brisa casi siempre sopla. 100 ° en agosto? - sin sudar. Muy pocos, si hay mosquitos. La tierra a través de nuestra cala es una reserva natural, por lo que se siente aislada. Un montón de aparcamiento en barco junto a la casa. (varios invitados han dicho que la próxima vez no van a traer su bote, porque nunca quisieron irse). Hay un balcón arriba con dos hamacas.
El columpio de la cuerda es el rey, sin duda el mejor en Texas, te dejará sin aliento (aún hace el mío después de miles de veces). Tenemos una canoa y dos kayaks novatos. Hay un tobogán acuático y una plataforma flotante. En el interior, hay una mesa de tejo de tamaño completo, una mesa de billar y muchos juegos. La luz de los peces bajo el agua atrae toneladas de peces para mirar (o atrapar si es necesario). Se desencadena un hermoso resplandor verde. La luna sale puede ser exquisita.
De arriba a abajo, está diseñado para divertirse. Te enamorarás absolutamente de este lugar, todos lo hacen. Impresionante es la palabra más utilizada en nuestro libro de visitas. "Los propietarios han pensado en todo" es otra.
Una excelente ubicación. Somos uno de los lugares frente al mar más cercanos en el "lado norte" menos desarrollado del lago. 13 minutos para Walmart, HEB, et al, et al, et al. 45 al centro, 60 al aeropuerto, pero tan apartado. Somos el primer lugar dentro de una zona de no despertar en el brazo "Big Sandy". Tiene acceso rápido al cuerpo principal sin todo el tráfico molesto y la conmoción.
Si conoces el lago Travis, sabes que es un gran lago, pero sabes que es una perra llegar al agua. Es un reservorio de control de inundaciones, y debes construir sobre la llanura de inundación. El agua desciende por un acantilado empinado o sale de una pendiente poco profunda. Aqui no. Estacione su automóvil en el borde de la orilla y baje algunos escalones (15 en promedio, más en una sequía, menos cuando está lleno) hasta la casa. ¿Salir al agua y necesitas una cerveza? Son 10 'de la "nevera". Dulce. Ate su bote al costado de la casa. Cuando estés listo para salir al lago, diablos, ya estás allí.
El FloatHouse está reservado en verano, pero en realidad las franjas son las mejores. Lo suficientemente caliente como para nadar durante el día, y lo suficientemente frío como para encender un fuego por la noche es tan bueno como se pone. Además, no hay nadie afuera, está tan desierto. El invierno también es asombroso. Especialmente para vacaciones como Navidad o Acción de Gracias.
Si bien es el lugar perfecto para familias o familias extensas, también está más allá del lugar perfecto para grupos de tipo soltero / a. Somos algo únicos en el negocio para permitir este tipo de grupos. La mayoría de los lugares los prohíben. No lo hacemos, porque FloatHouse es tan perfecto para estos tipos. No conducir, y muchas cosas divertidas que hacer. Raramente nos arrepentimos.
Si usted es el "organizador del viaje" - "reserve dano" - usted será el héroe. Créeme.

We had the best time. They have thought of everything you could need in any situation. Location is beautiful and house is perfect. Will definitely be back!
10.0 / 10.0
The Floathouse is great! Unfortunately the lake is very low right now so the slide and rope swing are not usable and at the time of our visit there were 60 stair steps from car to house. Our stay was still waterfront and we were able to launch shallow water craft right from the little dock there. May flies were an issue for a few days, but we did not have any mosquito problems. The blower provided helped with the bugs. The house is not fancy, but well equipped with everything we needed. We really appreciate the use of fishing poles, canoe, little trolling motor craft, and games. Our family loved this place and we would definitely like to come again and we highly recommend it to others. I booked this through VRBO, but next time would definitely use Ann’s direct line as shared on the Famous Floathouse website to make sure I had all the up to date info.

Float House gives you everything you need to have an amazing vacation. Well stocked, organized and planned out - perfect for short or long stays.
Loved the 70s vibe, comfortable beds, fishing gear and trolling boat. Lots of extra linens, towels and kitchen utensils. Sitting on the deck soaking in the sun, drinking coffee or beer and watching the turtles was perfect morning, noon and night.
My only complaint was we should have been more warned about the lake level. While it is out of their control, they didn't let us know about the steep incline/decline to get to the Float House until days before check in, after refund was no longer available. The steps need major work as well as better lighting and a hand rail. My Aunts in their 50s struggled. Anyone with any mobility issues in the slightest would not be able to get up or down. I will say, they did offer to ferry over any heavy items but the pictures need updated to include the current situation (steps specifically).
Still loved the Float House! Thank you for everything.

Rick and Ann were delightful hosts, meeting needs we didn't even know we had! They went out of their way to make our time at the lake perfect. We hope to come back!

We had an amazing time out on the lake. It's a bit of a drive, but so worth being right on the lake. The stairs are precarious but the host did everything possible to make lugging our bags up and down easier.

Anne and Rick are terrific! Float house is fun, even with low lake levels. Relaxing and what was needed to recharge.
10.0 / 10.0
We had an amazing stay even though the water level was down 35’.
Plenty of water to swim and float about. We even caught two five lb bass!
You only need to bring your clothes and food….everything you can imagine is there for you. Wonderful memories!

Casual good family fun.
Well equipped, Fabulous retro decor. Perfect for our family, loved that we could
tie up our boat for lots of good fishing. Great cove to fish paddle board, kayak etc. The only complaint is that the stairs down to the property, when the lake is low, should be mentioned as not being ideal and potentially dangerous. Or, new stairs, at least a handrail, added.

Great weekend at an awesome house
Our group had an incredible time at the float house. There was never a dull moment and the house had everything we needed for an epic weekend.
The owners were very helpful giving us a walkthrough of the house when we arrived and being very easy to get ahold of with questions before our stay.
The first day we got there I texted my wife and to tell her we need to go there with some of our friends (this was just a guys trip). The only negative I can possibly find on the house is that there’s not much around, the closest bar is 15 minutes (lucky rabbit, I would highly recommend) and the gas station is about the same if you run out of beer/ice, but if your plan is to stay on the lake, this is perfect.
I know we will book another trip in the future to this house, and as you should have no reservations about booking this property!

Spring break getaway
I took my kids and all their friends to the floathouse for spring break. Even though it was a little chilly for a lake vacation, the float house was packed with enough fun activities and vintage charm to keep us thoroughly entertained the whole stay. The owners were so attentive and nice. It’s such a cute place- tons of character!

Great stay
The home was exactly what was listed. Home has a 50's diner feel down stairs with pool table and shuffle board. And on the water not "on the water" I'm talking on the freaking water floating house. Loved the place and will definitely be booking this home again.

Unique getaway!
Ann was such a great hostess and our group of 6 enjoyed our stay immensely! The house has every thing you could need to cook, relax, and keep you occupied for days! If ever in Austin again, I would definitely stay here again! The lake was beautiful and we were able to enjoy hanging on the lily pad and use the rope swing! We spent most our time lounging on the great deck enjoying the sunshine and blue water. Thanks so much for opening your home for others to enjoy!

Throwback to Past; Fantastic Present
Ann and Rick have a fantastic Floathouse with everything you need to relax, unwind, party, kickback or whatever you want to do. Everyone from 14-60+ had a wonderful time. Despite the rain, no one was at a loss for things to do. Thank you for creating a place for great memories.

Ann explains everything from directIons to appliance and all the fun things to do in the house ! Everyone from 70yr old mother in law to the youngest 5yrs old had a blast! Definitely recommend this house! It's a one of a kind .

Wonderful Family Fun
We really enjoyed this stay. The home is comfortable and clean. Our family loved having use of the canoe, kayak and paddle board while swimming during the day. After dark we fished, played board games or pool. Thanks to Ann for the warm welcome tour and explaining the swing.

We love the Float House!
This was our second time staying at the float house and it wont be our last. We love the retro feel of the house and all the amenities. I mean how could you go wrong with water slide, canoe, paddle board, fishing, swimming, and a rope swing! We enjoyed our time here and can't wait to come back next year. Ann and Rick truly out did themselves when they created this beautiful property on Lake Travis. Thank you for letting us stay at your little piece of paradise.

Amazing!
Great response time to my messages before the trip dates. Had a quick tour of the swing and equipment at check in. The owners were responsive and available when needed & even scuba dived for our lost phone in the lake.
Amazing & COLD air conditioning!!! Nice breeze for windows open during day.
Hammock was perfect. Lily pad perfect.
Good fishing.
All the adults and teenagers loved it.
Oh and they have everything needed for your stay. All towels, linens, seasonings, utensils.
Have I said how great it was that you don’t need anything else. Rent a boat and it drives up to you.

Fabulous Fun
Both Ann and Ric were at the property to meet us upon our arrival. Southern hospitality could learn a few tips by taking notes from Ann and her welcome. The house was clean and ready for us even though we arrived a little early. They allowed us to launch our boat at the neighborhood park. Once settled into our rooms, it was non-stop activity for the 5 grandchildren with canoeing, kayaking, standup paddle boarding, playing pool and shuffle board and a bit of tubing behind our boat. The biggest hit by far was the rope swing! Even a few of the parents tried their skill at jumping from the platform, being propelled out into the deep lake water. We definitely will return...

You won’t regret booking the Float House!
Where do I start? I’ve visited here in March and in August. Both were epic times and well worth it. The float house has a website that has more info and pictures plus some cool videos that vrbo doesn’t have on it. If you want to convince them how awesome this place is gooogle famous float house.
The owners think of everything. They have everything there you will need. Just bring food and your closest friends/family for a great time. No need to leave except to stock up on more food/alcohol.
