Sweet Spring Break Stay

The stained glass artwork is amazing and it had all the comforts of home. So many unique sitting areas both inside and outside. It was great to curl up with a book and beverage. We had our teen with us but it would be a great couples getaway spot, too.

Great House!

We had a great time here! The house is so unique. My kids loved the community pool and my mom enjoyed sitting in the sunroom and watching the hummingbirds. We didn’t have a boat, but nice swimming beaches are only a short drive from the house and we also enjoyed visiting San Antonio several times throughout the week. Would highly recommend!

Birthday trip

We had a great stay at the house. It was clean and the property manager did an amazing job at communicating. We never found a way to park in the driveway, so we just parked up front. Wi-Fi seemed too weak to watch tv.

Artsy/Unique property

Great communication with the home owner and very responsive. Very quiet neighborhood. View of the lake, but the lake is way low at the moment... Well stocked and perfect for our girls trip. Nice location in between San Antonio and Austin. So many deer wandering around the neighborhood, it was truly spectacular!

Lake fun

It was spacious, plenty of room for people. close to the lake but the ramp was closed. Swimming pool was also closed. Surprising that being so close to the lake there was not much room to park a boat, but we did fine. The open ramp wasn’t far. We mainly came to enjoy the lake.

Art Is Inn is AWESOME!!!

Beautiful property that is well situated to lots of things around Canyon Lake! The house is absolutely art and the owners are friendly and helpful. There are multiple sitting areas - in the front there is a great breeze and there are great areas in the back for cooler weather! We had an absolutely wonderful time!

Wonderful place to stay

This property was the perfect get away we were looking for. The art is everywhere and delightful. The accommodations were comfortable, the view of the lake great, the outdoors spaces ample and just what we needed to relax and rewind.

Lake Get Away

Everything was fantastic. The house was so fun and unique. The mosaics and wall art just beautiful. Loved both the front and back patios, fun places to sit and drink a cup of coffee in the morning and enjoy a glass of wine in the evening. The beds were comfortable and had plenty of pillows and blankets. There is not a living room but the bigger bedroom has a Murphy Bed that we would put up and had a nice common space to gather. In this room there also a table with inserts that we used to play games, it worked perfectly and we were able to fit 8 people around it very comfortably. The sunroom had views of the lake and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed, we even grilled some burgers out front on the grill. The owners were great and very helpful, truly wonderful people with such kind hearts. Enjoyed meeting them both. Overall it was a great weekend get away and we look forward to coming back and renting both upstairs and downstairs.

If it’s not the coolest house on Canyon Lake, I don’t know what is.

You’ve never stayed in a place like this before. It should be on one of their commercials. The original owner was an amazing artist and the house shows it at every corner. You have plenty of elbow room, a quiet corner to call your own if you need it. Every bedroom has it’s own patio. A large deck overlooking the lake. Close to everything and the most accommodating owners. Your good time is guaranteed!

Amazing views

We went for the weekend , this was our first vacation to canyon lake and we couldn't have asked for a better house or hospitality. The owners were very helpful with our needs because we do have 8 children and sometimes it hard to keep them happy . The property was beautiful with art and things to see. The owners supported us with activities inside and outside to keep the kids happy. we had such an amazing time we cant wait to go back. One of our best vacations ever. Thank you again guys , meeting you has truly been a blessing and can t wait to come back.

Beautiful Place

We all enjoyed staying in this lovely place, the decor was fun and inviting, as were the hosts. We did wish we had known before booking that there would be families staying just above us because my daughter is pregnant with twins and needed lots of rest. The family with 5 kids made it hard to relax due to all the running and jumping taking place directly above our heads. Other than that, everything was perfect. My son grilled steaks outside and we had everything we needed in the kitchen plus a cozy table for a wonderful family dinner.
