Waterfront, Private Beach, + Dock!

This vacation rental home is located just a short drive away from many South by Southwest (SXSW) conference and festival venues. You’ll enjoy short commutes no matter where you’re heading! We recommend exploring ride-share options to avoid parking issues when heading downtown as traffic increases significantly around this event.


OUTDOOR AMENITIES


The covered patio provides a stunning view of the lake and outdoor seating for you to enjoy a cup of coffee or glass of wine on. A built-in propane BBQ grill lets you eat like a local and fans provide a cool breeze in the Texas summer! Enjoy the grassy lawn that leads down to a seating area by the water as well as a private, 2-story boat dock. PLEASE NOTE: The Homeowner keeps their boat in one slip year round. A second slip is available for guest use. The boat slip hoist limit is 8,000 lbs / 23-foot boat. Enjoy being on Lake Austin which stays at a constant high level throughout the year unlike Lake Travis.



THE HOME


The open concept living area and kitchen is perfect for entertaining. Curl up on the comfortable living room furniture to watch your favorite movie on the flat-screen TV or read a good book. Home cooks can stay close to all the action as they whip up a delicious dinner in the gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances. Seating for 8 is available in the formal dining area and stools provide additional seating for guests around the kitchen island. 


Indoor amenities include a games, and ping pong table.

Unbeatable Holiday Weekend
We had a group of 10 guys in town for labor day weekend and longhorn football season kickoff. The property is close enough to Austin to enjoy all the city things, and far enough away to escape the crowds and enjoy the lake. The dock and waterfront area are amazing. The house is beautiful and has multiple balconies, TVs, plenty of beds and couches, and tons of amenities that make this an above average rental property. Extremely well-maintained and highly recommended - would come back in a heartbeat.

End of Summer Family Fun
Everything from check in to check out was easy! We had from AZ, CO, and Houston and there was something for everyone to love! House is spacious and had everything we needed. Very organized, living spaces for with room for all, and location was great! We were able to rent boats with captains through local companies and the amazing two story dock house made for easy pic up to surf wake and sunbathing on beautiful spot on Lake Austin. Water was wonderful and cool making swimming and paddle boarding refreshing on hot Texas days... Views from balcony and bedrooms facing water never disappointed. All bedrooms had lake view except bunk room but bunk room was cozy and an extra bonus. Neighbors wonderful and truly a quiet location on Lake Austin.

Great weekend away
Had a slight hiccup with the electronic door lock upon arrival l, but after a quick call the management team was very responsive and got us access to the home quickly. They followed up with a handyman replacing an electronic lock and we were all set for the weekend. The property was amazing and accurately described. Views were great and the house was clean and well stocked. Couldn’t have asked for more. Kudos to the owners and management team!

Great home and location
We absolutely loved the house. It had plenty of space, was very clean and had beautiful views. The top deck on the boat dock was great to hangout on, enjoy lunch, or fish. There is a little sandy beachy area near the boat dock that was perfect for our kiddos to hangout at and play. We have nothing but great things to say. We would love to come back!

Beautiful House
The house was even better in person. The property was very well maintained, clean and beautiful. The boat dock was very nice! We spent most of our time and meals out there! The only negative thing was that the Hydrilla (seaweed) was bad by the dock. We couldn’t jump in and swim. It didn’t put too much of a damper on our trip because we had a boat to go out in but if you are hoping to swim off the dock, it is inconvenient. Even with that minor problem, I we will definitely be back!

Wonderful lake vacation
We had a great stay at this home. The place was very clean and had a ton of amenities available for personal use. There were spices, condiments, shampoo, conditioner all for you to use. We even rented a pontoon boat on the lake for the trip. Important to know that the closest gas station (and only one) is very far from this location. We would come back and stay here for sure. Thank you for having us.

Stunning getaway on Lake Austin
This property is everything you want for a lakefront retreat. From the stunning property itself and the attention to detail that contributes to a comfortable and enjoyable stay, this property does not disappoint! …and while the pictures online are excellent, the property is even better in person if you can imagine that! If you’re looking for a quick lakefront getaway to rewind or a memorable family retreat like I did- you will have a fabulous experience!

Gorgeous Lake Austin property
Spent a week-end on Lake Austin with my husband and teenage daughter to visit our two college kids who attend UT. The home is just as beautiful as in the pictures! It is quite large and could have accommodated many more! It was clean, and the beds were very comfortable. It really had everything we needed. Communication with management was very easy. It is located in a quiet part of the lake, in a safe neighborhood and it made for a very relaxing weekend getaway! The yard and home are well maintained. We brought our boat and were able to use the dock without any problem. We loved the home and will come back!

A little far, but the lake is worth it!
Stayed here with a group of friends and the dock on the water is incredible. The water was clean, cold, and refreshing. It’s definitely a bit of a drive to town, but if you’re there for the dock/water, it’s well worth it.

Absolute oasis
This house is perfect for families or multiple couples. Upstairs more quiet, downstairs more game room and bunks. Plenty of sleeping space patio space and add on the boat house, the young ones all had room to hang out, spread out and chill out. The water is beautiful and the views fantastic. Kitchen is fully stocked and there is plenty of room for your own groceries with an extra fridge in the laundry. We stayed with 6 adults, parents and 4 22+ men. Never felt crowded. Even had a rental boat pick us up right at the boat house. What a great week!!!
