What a super location for a family staycation. We live in Austin but this was special. Brought our boat and water toys (and dog) and really had a great time. David the host is great, and we met some of the neighbors also really nice.

Beautiful spot on Lake Austin. Paddle boards, canoes and kayaks were provided. Property was clean. Plenty of towels were provided which is nice since we swam in the lake and took advantage of the hot tub at night. Check in/check out was super easy. Perfect for a weekend getaway.

Beautiful view of the river

We had a wonderful stay at this property. The host was very friendly and communicative. The view of the river was amazing. The kitchen was great to cook in. And the location was peaceful but close enough to drive to Austin for activities for the kids. Overall we really enjoyed our time there.
