Labor Day weekend

Eight of us girlfriends stayed here Labor Day weekend and had a blast. The pool is big and beautiful and the lake is right in front with beautiful views. The price can't be beat cause I look at a lot of other places. Saw deer along the lake in the morning. I would recommend this place to anyone.

My husband and I enjoyed staying at this lovely home. The view of the lake was great and having our own swimming pool was nice as well. Everything is provided for your comfort and there is no reason to leave unless you want to explore the area. I would definitely recommend this rental to my friends.

What a wonderful stay we had at this warm, cozy lake cottage that is so comfortable and filled with history-we wish our visit had been longer. We are from New Jersey and had a grand time enjoying beautiful, warm Lake Travis, the peacefulness of the deck and lovely pool, and being together with our family.This lakehouse had everything we needed-the owners are wonderful and caring. We hope to make this a regular vacation spot!

The house was very comfortable for the 6 of us staying there. All the beds were so comfortable including the pull out trundles. It was great getting into our own private big pool everyday. We were wishing we had booked for longer than 4 nights. Everything we needed was provided and the owner's made sure we could reach them if needed. It is a great "away from it all" place. Amy's ice cream at Hill Country Galleria was awesome!!! We would love to return!!

We had a great time at your wonderful house! We especially enjoyed the refreshing pool and the relaxing "treehouse" deck. Hope to visit again sometime!

My five friends and I stayed for a long weekend and we had a fabulous time. There was really no reason to leave the house. In fact, we went from the deck in the morning, to the pool in the afternoon, to the dock in the evening! Everything was clean and well accessible. The owners were so helpful and quick to respond to my questions. We definitely hope to be back!

Great Place

My family felt very comfortable staying at this rental home. It is very kid friendly. The owners are great and go out of their way to make sure you have everything you need. The location is another plus because you can do things in Austin, Spicewood, Horseshoe Bay, and Marble Falls. We were there for a wedding at the Spicewood Winery -- which we would recommend visiting. It is about 20 miles from the house and is easily accessible. We intend to rent this lakehouse again and probably for a longer stay. I will definitely recommend this place to friends.

Relaxing Getaway

This lake house is perfect for a relaxing escape with the very large pool and Lake Travis out the back door. Everything was clean and comfortable and the owner is extremely nice and professional. The drive to the house is beautiful yet very convenient to downtown Austin or a drive out west into the hills. Expect to see many deer, foxes and other wildlife. A great vacation house that we'd love to rent again!

We are a family from Germany and rented the house for a family reunion and had a wonderful time there. The house is very well equipped and furnished with love. We sure will keep the address and hope we can come again one day! Thank you so much Cynthia for sharing your house with us and the thoughtful guest service.

We had such a wonderful stay at your lake house that we are planning to make this an annual trip! It was so relaxing watching the sunset as we lounged on the deck. Having the pool to jump in to cool off was an added bonus. The house is so warm and inviting. We also took advantage of the great restaurants in the area. It was overall a wonderful experience.

We enjoyed our stay very much! The house was really comfortable and cozy, and the kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed. The kids loved the pool and had a great time with the electric keyboard in the house! We made several trips to a beautiful brand new mall near-by and had a fabulous meal at Rocco's one evening. We would definitely do this again!

We had a wonderful 3 night stay at your lake house in September! The house is so cozy and comfortable and the view couldn't be better! The kids loved swimming in the lake and running around on the shores collecting shells and rocks. The swimming pool was a big plus too! We really felt like we were in the middle of nowhere even though we were close (maybe 15 minutes?) to restaraunts, shopping, stores, etc. Very convenient! Thanks for sharing your house with us!

My family and I have truly enjoyed this gorgeous lakehouse and have returned on many occcasions when we have come to town to visit from Miami, Florida. Having a sunset cocktail on the deck as the breeze from the lake fans your face is a relaxing experience not to be missed! Thank you for making this property available so others may enjoy it!
