Why the Owner Chose Point Venture
Lake Travis is one of the most beautiful lakes in TX and we love the TX Hill country. We chose Point Venture because it is on the North side of the lake and closer to Cedar Park where Jamie and Mary live. The cove we are on is so nice and peaceful and has beautiful sunrises. Point Venture offers so many wonderful amenities like a 9-hole golf course, private park with a wonderful sandy beach, basketball, play ground, covered pavilion, boat launch and hiking trails.
The Unique Benefits at this Townhouse
The home itself has plenty of room for everyone to spread out. There is room for a ping-pong match, Nintendo game, watch TV or choose from our many DVD's. Enjoy our selection of board games, darts, dominoes or cards. The lake is just a few steps down and the deck is a great place to grill, sunbath or just hang out and watch the kids swim in the lake.
The fully functional and well stocked kitchen will make your stay easy and convenient. If you need something it is probably here!
When water level goes down, the private park is a great place to hang out and enjoy the beautiful sandy beach that is as pretty as any Caribbean beach. Please ask to see a photo taken April 2009.
Owner's Map of Point Venture
Jamie and Mary Cotterell and Alan and Ricki Anne Dodd bought this property together in 2006. Jamie and Ricki are brother and sister and our families have always enjoyed doing things together, especially water sports. We loved the idea of a place big enough and with plenty of bedrooms for our two families to get together. We just love coming to the lake, relaxing, hanging out with family and enjoying the lake, grilling and fishing.
Jamie and Mary live in Cedar Park, TX and Alan and Ricki live in Kingwood, TX
