"4th Night Free" - New Vacation Home in Hollows Resort
Year Purchased: 2007
Why the Owner Chose Jonestown
The Hollows Resort is like no other we've stayed at. Over 1400 beautiful acres of unspoiled hill country with miles of beautiful shoreline on the deep blue waters of Lake Travis. Although we live in Austin, The Hollows is a world away - where you can relax and leave your cares behind. Being nearby - we take meticulous care of our vacation home and are always available during your stay if you have a need.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Our vacation home is set in the wooded hills of the resort overlooking a beautiful canyon - so we can enjoy it without disturbances from neighbors above, next to, or below us. Right out our door we can enjoy hiking/biking trails down to the lake or through the woods along a creek. Our whole family enjoys the Beach Club - especially the grotto pools and sand volleyball. And when we feel like it - we grab a paddle and take the kayaks out for some lake time.

Owner's Map of Jonestown
My wife and I were not born in Texas - but we got here as fast as we could! We've lived in Michigan, New York, North Carolina, and Kentucky - but the Texas Hill Country is our favorite. Now with two growing boys (12 and 8) - we spend as much time as we can outdoors and on the lake - hiking, biking, swimming, fishing, sailing, and kayaking. I work for a large engineering firm and my wife manages our family, household, and vacation home.
