About this property

Anchors Away - Lakefront Home w/Hot Tub, Amazing Views, Fire Pit & Huge Deck

Welcome to our little piece of the lake! Our three bedroom, three bathroom home is perfect for your next getaway - whether it’s a romantic weekend for two or a fun-filled week for ten.

As soon as you walk through the front door, you will immediately see the beautiful waters of Canyon Lake through the floor to ceiling windows and patio door. The sun sets directly behind the house so get ready to see some of the most beautiful sunsets in the Texas Hill Country.

Downstairs, you will find one full bathroom, a fully furnished kitchen, a sit-down nostalgic game machine, a queen Murphy bed tucked in the shiplap wall, a table that sits eight comfortably, an island that sits two, a cabinet of games, a sectional couch (favorite place to nap) and HDTV.

Upstairs, you will find three bedrooms, two full bathrooms and the laundry room. The spacious master suite has a king-size bed, nightstands, bench, dresser, private bathroom, HDTV, and French doors that lead to the upstairs balcony. The second bedroom has a king sized bed plus a twin trundle, nightstands, HDTV and also a set of French doors to the upstairs balcony. The upstairs balcony has a patio set and ceiling fans – it's perfect to take in the breathtaking view of the lake and the sunset. Bedroom three has a bunkbed – twin on top, full on bottom plus a twin trundle and HDTV. The laundry room has a washer, dryer, iron and ironing board.

The best part of the house and where you will probably be spending most of your time is the huge deck. Outside, you'll find a custom-made 16 foot table with benches, ceiling fans, beer/drink refrigerator, surround sound stereo, rocking chairs, lounge chairs, a charcoal barbecue pit, corn hole game, fire pit and of course the amazing Sundance spa.

Off the deck, you will find a beautiful set of lighted stairs that lead down to the lake. Please note, while we are a lakefront house, getting into the lake can be quite tricky. Most of the houses located on the South side of the lake have rock cliffs versus beach front entries. It is a pretty steep drop into the lake so please keep that in mind.

Don't forget to sit on the front porch in the evenings to see and feed the deer. Some of them will even eat out of your hand.

About a mile away from the house, you will find boat ramp #7. Here, you can launch your boat, jet skis, kayaks, paddle boards, etc.

Within a 20–25 minute drive, you will find multiple wineries, Gruene Hall, Schlitterbahn, Natural Bridge Caverns, Cranes Mill Marina, the Guadalupe River, Comal River tube chute and much more.

**Please note**
Maximum of 10 occupants and three vehicles at all times. This is monitored via Ring doorbell located at the front door.
You must be 25 years or older to rent.

Breathtaking views and relaxing lake house

My family visited with 2 kids and a baby and our neighbors who have 3 young girls. We had a blast. The deck is so huge and overlooks Canyon Lake. It has a hot tub and fire pit along with corn hole for the kids. The weather was perfect so we spent most of our time outside. We were even able to see a few wild deer. We also enjoyed renting a boat at the Canyon Lake marina. The house is fully stocked with everything you need. The owner even provided a pack and play for my baby. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Lovely family holiday

We really enjoyed our time at Anchors Away. We loved the house and the view. The lake is low, so we weren’t able to access the water easily, which didn’t bother us at all. [We had plenty of water activities scheduled for each day anyway; Schlitterbahn, double decker boat rental with slide and river tubing]. I am sure someone more adventurous could climb down to the water, but we had a couple young children and didn’t want to attempt it. We did walk down the lighted staircase to the fire pit/seating area nearer to the water without difficulty. Everyone in our party thought the beds were perfectly comfortable, which was much appreciated. Our host was very friendly, helpful and communicative. Excellent stay!

BEST HOSTS!

Anchor's away is a dream rental! I've rented all over the world and this is one of the best stays we've had. I've never encountered such a thoughtful host. Every single detail was covered and we wanted for nothing. I brought things other rentals don't usually have and I never needed them. The panoramic view from the main living area is a dream! Rainy weather? no problem! TWO giant covered patios, an old school arcade with the classics, a chest with tons of games...BBQ pit and firewood made for an amazing dinner of steaks on the lake and s'mores. We were a group of 9 and had plenty of room to spread out. Love that the giant deck is closed off very well so as not to worry about small children taking off or animals coming in. Full disclosure-- you should know that the stairs (which are beautifully lit and VERY well built) are a hike down to the water so someone with a handicap may not be able to make that trek. But for those that can, WOWWWW! The trip down is much worth every step! There is seating and just a picturesque scene waiting for smores, fishing, hiking along the shore (bring good shoes). I would stay here again in a heartbeat! Beds were all super comfy! Restaurants, dollar store, everything is close by but not too close. Bridgette was always just a text away and made the process so easy and wonderful. Thanks for making me a total hero to my family!

Cute house with beautiful views

We had a great stay! The house was clean, comfortable, and just as nice as it looked in the photos. It had everything we needed, and check-in/check-out was super easy. The huge deck overlooking the lake was definitely the highlight — we spent a lot of time out there enjoying the view. We also loved relaxing in the hot tub, hanging out around the fire pit, and really appreciated the outdoor heaters for the cooler evenings. One thing to note: the photos of Canyon Lake seem a bit outdated — the water levels were extremely low during our visit. If you’re planning to come for boating like we were, it’s worth checking current lake conditions ahead of time. Overall, a great spot to unwind and enjoy the outdoors!

Spring Break 2025 Lake Experience

We had an amazing time at this property. Made and created memories to last and something our family will talk about for a long time. The location was great, we were able to get to a marina and rent a boat with ease , we went hiking, spent time in the hot tub and made smores every night around the camp fire. Travel to the Natural Bridge Caverns and surrounding attractions was easy. Rooms were comfortable and the kitchen had all the housewares we needed to cook. Recommend this house and awesome hostess who was quick to respond too all our needs and questions!

Awesome Weekend Getaway

We had my sister's pre-wedding girl's trip here with 7 women in total. There was enough room for everyone and each person had a great time! The weather was rainy and cloudy, but that didn't stop us from enjoying the hot tub, games inside, and the awesome view. Although it's a little pricey, the location is great and the host of the lake house is very nice and responds quickly!

This was one of the best houses we’ve stayed in Canyon Lake. The house was pristine upon arrival and everything in working order. We were impressed with how well stocked the kitchen was from pans to dinnerware to cutlery. They were very responsive the two times we needed assistance. Will definitely stay here again.

Hello. My name is Bridgette Tydlacka. My family and I absolutely love the Texas hill country but especially Canyon Lake.
