Accommodations: Home, 3 Bedrooms, 3 Baths (Sleeps 8)
A vacation at our “Hideaway” lake front property is one you’ll remember for a lifetime. Canyon Lake is a unique community among rolling hills in the midst of lake and river waters. Water activities are easily accessible since we are located directly on the waterfront, you will be able to conveniently enjoy all the lake has to offer. Head down the private trail to the cove to swim, fish or try out one of the kayaks, or just hang out on the waters edge and take in the beauty and the warmth of the sun as you enjoy a cool beverage by the lake.
Jump in your boat (bring your own and anchor it in the cove or rent one by the hour. There are two boat ramps close by. Head out to the open water to tube, ski, wakeboard or fish for the “big ones”. There is great fishing on Canyon Lake for bass, striped bass, white bass, crappie, perch and very large catfish. Canyon Lake is also known for its great sailing conditions, so you may want to rent one from the marina while you’re visiting. Canyon Lake is one of the clearest and most beautiful lakes in Texas. You can’t help but have a great time on this lake. The cedar and oak woods are saturated with wildlife. The neighborhood is shared with pet-like deer. It’s a very calming and natural environment.
You will find the home to be very accommodating with plenty of space for friends and family gatherings (we have other properties available on the same street for larger groups). The home has been newly remodeled and feels brand new with many modern day conveniences including: a fully equipped kitchen with granite counters, an entertainment center which is linked to speakers to be enjoyed on the deck, cable TV and computer with internet access. Upstairs is a pool table, game console and a variety of board games to be enjoyed by the kids or young at heart. A small grocery store is nearby for any and all items you may need.
The home has a large back deck with several tables, umbrellas, and a bar area. Enjoy the lake view as you sit on the deck sipping a cool beverage visiting with friends and family. The back yard is very large and completely fenced. There is plenty of room to play croquette, volleyball or horseshoes, which are provided. There is pond that is on the property that is filtered and has two waterfalls. You can actually swim in it if you want! At night, enjoy the starry sky as you roast marshmallows in the fire pit.
The Guadalupe River feeds Canyon Lake and has some of the best tubing, rafting and kayaking in Texas. It’s located only minutes from the home. Gruene Hall, Texas’s oldest dance hall, is located on the banks of the Guadalupe River with its famous live music and is only a short 15 minute scenic drive away. Gruene also offers great restaurants, shops and spas.
While visiting, you may also want to take a day trip to New Braunfels, a quick 25-minute drive away. It is home to the world’s largest water park, Schlitterbahn, which is situated on the banks of the crystal clear Comal River. Tubing is also very popular on the Comal River.
Situated between Austin and San Antonio, there are unlimited tourist attractions in the area. If your vacation plans include a trip to San Antonio to visit Sea World, Fiesta Texas, the Riverwalk, Natural Bridge Caverns, or the Alamo, we are only short drive to US 281 or IH-35 to take you quickly into San Antonio. Austin, known for its live music and numerous exquisite restaurants is only an hour drive away and is well worth a day trip or a night out on the town. And don’t forgot to visit San Marcos with its famous Tanger outlet malls or the Power Olympic Whitewater Kayaking Center located on the San Marcos River.
Day trips to heritage-rich central Texas towns, such as Fredericksburg, Kerrville, Johnson City and Bandera, Wimberley, Boerne, Blanco, San Marcos make us a top location for lodging. Here you can see for yourself what small town Hill Country living is all about. Many of these small communities have yearly festivals that are enjoyable to attend. For the shopaholics, Prime and Tanger outlet malls (which are the most visited attractions in Texas) are only a 45 minute drive away.
We have created “day trip” itineraries to these destinations with our recommended activities, sights and dining suggestions. Please let us know if you are interested in this information and we will email you.
Whatever your preference, you are within easy reach of a number of activities and destinations including: both wineries and breweries, Market Days, golf courses, shopping, and the numerous water sports and recreation possibilities provided by Canyon Lake and the surrounding Guadalupe and Comal Rivers.
