About this house rental

Lake Travis House on just under 2 acres with incredible views, great decks, a boat dock, and a fire pit. 3 bedrooms 2 bathrooms. We are just down the street from Vintage Villas on Eck Lane. This is a great space to relax and enjoy the fun of Lake Travis. Lots of space to spread out and perfect areas to come together. This is a perfect place for getting together with friends, family reunions, wedding parties, or baby showers. We can accommodate events for an extra fee. All events and parties must be approved by the owner in advance

We fell in love with this property the first time we saw it. We moved here in June, 2018, and have been fixing it up since. We are continually working to make this place as beautiful as she deserves to be. We are looking forward to sharing it with new friends in the VRBO community. We are also continuing to improve the property. We like to use the words rustic, charming and quirky! It was neglected for decades and just like an onion, you peel back a layer and another layer! Our goal is to be a great place to visit, whether you are looking for a great place to get together with lots of family and friends or are looking for a quiet romantic weekend at the lake. We love dogs and encourage you to bring your fur-babies as well. We love cats too, but have family members who have allergies so please leave cats at home.

Guest access to the lake

A short 1/4 mi. walk DOWNHILL on our private road takes you to our beach on Lake Travis. Bring your water toys and Floaties. If you have a boat or jet skis you can either tie up to the dock at night or take advantage of guest slips at one of two marinas less than a mile away. The Main House is set up for Guests use. The Laundry room is typically locked off for rentals of less than a month but can be made available for longer term rentals. There are a couple closets which are locked off for storage, but all rooms and the kitchen are available for guests use. Anything in the pantry or bathrooms is there for your use. Kristin is a foodie and can tell you all the great places to go out to eat at!

Other things to note
Water levels on Lake Travis are constantly fluctuating. Water levels may be higher or lower than shown in the pictures. We are fortunate to have a boat dock with deep water access. If you are planning to bring a boat please discuss docking options with us in advance.
It also is downhill. Because lake levels on Travis fluctuate, all newer homes must be built above the flood plain of 722 Ft above sea level. Lake levels constantly change but are currently in the 650-660s range.
Bring water shoes as the beach is quite rocky. We are in "the country" of Lake Travis so we don't usually recommend walking or exploring in flip flops. The water is clean and a great temperature for swimming in the spring and summertime or winter if you're part polar bear. The road to the lake is off-limits for guest vehicles if you need assistance John also has a work truck that is usually at the house.

Clean property John was great. Lake is 30 plus feet low but could have used the kayaks and paddle board. But long walk to lake.

Wonderful time, the home, the lake, the yard & the deck all made for a peaceful retreat for our family, including our dogs. John is a wonderful host and responsive to any questions we had. Plenty of room for all to relax & enjoy our time together. We had fun on the lake...kayaking and the Lilly pad were so much fun.

Our family of five, including ages 40-somethings, 21, 19, 17, and dogs all enjoyed our long weekend. Even though lake levels are low, we were able to still enjoy water access from the dock. Everyone enjoyed the kayaks, SUPs, and lily pad, as well as the protected cove for water fun. There is rocky, uneven terrain downhill to the firepit & then further down to the dock, five-ish min total, so keep that in mind if you have young children or anyone with mobility issues. As the listing suggests, you'll definitely want to wear water shoes, not sandals. The house is clean, nice layout, great for family time. The host John is very responsive and easy to reach if needed.

Beautiful & quiet getaway

My husband and I just moved to the Austin area so we rented this house as a staycation for my birthday weekend with my mom and our 1y/o puppy. All of us had such a great time. It was presidents day weekend so there were some neighbors blasting music the entire first day/night we were there (Saturday) but you could only hear it down by the water/fire pit. Even with the super loud music the house/back porch/back yard stayed totally quiet which was such a relief! The host was communicative and wanted to do anything he could to make sure we had a great stay. We would 100% book to stay here again and recommend it to anyone.

My family and I really enjoyed staying at this house. As we were there in late December, we didn't do much lake stuff. The view of the lake was nice. The host, John, was very friendly and helpful.

The place had plenty of space for everything we wanted to do. Big kitchen, dining area, living room and then the backyard space was perfect for our group! Lake access was a big bonus as well.
