Another Great Stay!!!
We are repeat renters. This experience was just as great as the first time we stayed. We look forward to going again next year. The house is always stocked with everything needed plus many “nice to haves.” Great communication from the owners as well.

Great house, clean and well stocked. Communication with the host was outstanding. We enjoyed the place a lot. The grandkids loved the putting green and other games. Definitely we will return in the summer.
The house is very clean, beautiful, and well decorated. The owners have provided high quality amenities. Everything you can think of you might need or want, they have it readily available. So many extras on the property. Neighborhood is really quiet. All of us comments multiple time how relaxing this place was for us. I highly recommend staying here.

Our family had an amazing time at the Sweet Tea lakehouse over the long Fourth of July weekend! We found everything to be as advertised. The house is beautiful and impeccably clean. The kitchen is very well equipped. There were also plenty of water toys and floats for all to enjoy. The trees to the west of the house provide beautiful shade on the raised deck for late afternoon beverages and evening dinners. We will definitely be returning for another stay!

Perfect Peaceful Lakeside Escape
Communication was excellent, arrival was super easy, and waking up to the lakefront life was perfect. We loved the coffee, fishing, swing, hot tub, kayaks and paddle board, bird viewing, waking around the neighborhood with our dogs and taking in the bluebonnets, everything the place had to offer. Yes, the park in the cove was a little busy in the morning when boats were loading and unloading but it calmed down quickly and was empty for most of the day. We loved our stay so much and are already planning our return trip. Thank you so much!

I cannot say enough good things about this property. They did not skip a single detail. The house is absolutely perfect and stocked with everything you can think of. The outdoor space is BREATHTAKING. They know how to cater to guests. By far the best VRBO we’ve ever stayed at and we travel a lot. We will definitely be back. THANK YOU!!!! It was an amazing weekend and worth every single penny.

From the owner: "Blake, so glad you and your family had a wonderful stay at Sweet Tea Retreat and enjoyed Lake LBJ! We love happy guests and providing a special place to unwind and have fun. Thanks for being such great guests!"
This was an absolutely amazing weekend celebrating friendship. A yearly trip we take with our best friends. The host was very attentive and left no stone unturned as far as details with total comfort in mind. The house is loaded with extra amenities! Boat slip was so easy to get in and out of after a long day on the lake. The hot tub and yard games we enjoyed in the evenings. From the minute we walked in the house, we felt totally at ease and ready to unwind. If there were ever an award for VRBO host of the year, it should go to Ren and co-owner. Thanks for the experience. We will be back.
