Perfect location!

The house and property was amazing! This was our 3rd VRBO stay and the best so far. The location was perfect for us as we wanted to visit Mason, Fredericksburg and Austin. Enjoyed a little fishing from the dock one night. I hope we left the property as clean as when we arrived. Would definitely stay here again!

Great get away!

This property exceeded our expectations! The house was adorable and had everything we needed to enjoy our time there. It’s located on an incredible area of the river where we were able to float and kayak without too much boating traffic. Will 100% return!

The property was pretty and the yard was beautiful. We enjoyed the dock to fish and watch the lake. The property was only upstairs and hard to go up and down all day but we managed and had fun.

Great home on a beautiful river

Adult family of 4 enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and beautiful view. Kitchen was well equipped for our meal preparations. Furniture was comfortable and. well positioned to give us ample room. We used the dock for our kayaks and swimming the ladder was especially helpful for entry/ exit. Great place, would stay again.

We rent this home 3 to 4 times during the summer each year and always have a fabulous time there. The water is perfect on the upper Colorado, where this is located. It’s just a rocks throw from the dam at Inks Lake, so there’s very little boat traffic. The home is well equipped, and very comfortable. You’re not allowed to use the boat lift, but it does have a nice dock for docking your boat and a place for two jet skis, and that seems to work out fine for us. You’ll love the beautiful pecans and the plush green grass and gentle slope down to the water. Everything is there that you would need. There’s even a washer and dryer.

Pleasant

We enjoyed our stay. The lake house was super clean and provided necessities needed for cooking meals. We arrived early, but were not able to get early access, though the place was ready. For the amount we paid, we felt an earlier access would have given us more time to enjoy our time at the lake; check out was super early too. Felt like we really had only one full day to enjoy the place, considering what we paid. But we enjoyed our time together.

Riverside house

It was a very nice property, house was as described. We took the kids to getaway for few days, everyone enjoyed their time. The fishing from property dock was good caught plenty of blue gail and one flathead catfish. Other then the invasion of zebra mussels it was very nice out at the river would return again. Contact with management was good and quick response thank yall

Anniversary Trip

Property was nice and clean. Amazing lake access with massive lawn. House was well-stocked with needed items for cooking. We enjoyed our stay. Suggestions - 4:00 check in seems later than typical on most properties (usually 2:00 or 3:00 check in); 10:00 check out seems earlier than typical on most properties (usually 11:00 or 12:00). The check out time doesn't allow for much time to enjoy the morning prior to check out. Seemed the AC worked well during the day but bedroom was hot at night. Not sure if the flow of the AC is sufficient to the back bedrooms. AC did not allow to turn down below 71.

Clean and comfortable

This was a nice little house on a beautiful part of the lake. Would stay there again! I wish it would have been more clear in the listing that renters do not have access to the boat lift. There is a slip to tie up to which worked ok because the water was smooth, but the listing read “private boat dock” and showed a lift. What wasn’t as obvious is that the owner’s boat stays there. My one suggestion for improvement is to improve the WIFI. All renters these days depend on strong WIFI for multiple devices. WIFI was not adequate for our Family of 4.
