The open water here is peaceful, clear and beautiful. This is a quality home located on a quiet section of the Llano Arm of Lake LBJ in Kingsland, Texas. With views of Packsaddle Mountain and the Hill Country over the calm, quite and constant level waters of Lake LBJ, you’ll find beauty in every day with any weather. Set on a large grassy lot, this beautiful and comfortable home sits at the meeting point of Lake LBJ and Llano River. With lake activities in one direction and the adventures and beauty of the river in the other, there is something for everyone. The water level at the dock is usually about 2-3 feet deep. The sandy bottom channel can get as high as 5ft for a great swimming hole, with shallow sandy landing area great for relaxing. With a mostly soft sandy bottom, playing, swimming wading, and all activities are easy on the eyes and the feet. Even though the normal water level is constant, the sandy channels vary and can shift a little after big rains, but rarely does it get over 5 ft to go all the way to the other side where there is a large Sandy Beach area. This is great for running around with kids, picnicking or hiking up river. Just about 1 ½ -2 miles up river is an area known as “The Slab”. A public but largely unknown park like setting of granite slabs of rock which form rapids, slides and swimming holes. If you don’t want to hike up, you can drive to the parking area just up the street. When the current is stronger, the ultra adventurous can start at The Slab and venture down the calm Llano River on floats until you arrive back at the Lake House.
Prefer the deep waters? Head the other direction. Kayaks and Canoes can take in you in either direction for deeper swimming or fishing options. Up river has depths varying from 1-7ft! Down the lake side gets deeper as you go until it reaches 5-6 ft in areas about 100-200 yards from our dock. Another 100 yards or so and it becomes 10-15+ feet as you enter the main part of Lake LBJ. (See **Boats** at end) There are three kayaks, a canoe provided at no additional charge.
Or, if you're like most of our guest, you can just enjoy the peaceful and quiet waters right in front of the home. From the moment you wake with your coffee, to the frequent dips in fresh, boat free waters for a dip or float, to the amazing sunsets over the hill country behind...you will quickly embrace having this open water view all day long!
While the home is in a quiet and peaceful area, all the modern necessities are there and are your local shops, restaurants and the HEB Grocery are just 4 miles away. There is also a full 18 hole golf course (Lighthouse) just 2 miles up the road and another (Legends) just 5 miles
**Bunk Room is 4th bed and sleeps up to 6 w/ it's own full bathroom
**There is a half bath near the kitchen
**Full bath in main hallway between all bedroom doors
**Full bath in Primary bedroom
River Oaks Lake House is conveniently located in central Texas about 60 minutes northwest of Austin, 90 minutes north of San Antonio.
***BOATS***Our property is in the sand bar of the Llano River arm of Lake LBJ. The water is shallow. If you are planning on bringing or renting a boat, be aware that most boats will not reach the dock. Feel free to ask questions if you have concerns. We've pulled in and seen many pontoons, flat fishing boats, and jet skis make it to our dock in the past. But, the historic 2018 Flood still has Mother Nature making adjustments. It continues to change but is still consistently too shallow for boat (motor) traffic of any kind.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Chad Proctor

Chad moved to Austin in 1978 as a 5 year old. Gaby came from Mexico to learn English in Austin in 1999. They met....and now have over 20 years marriage and 3 kids.
We have 2 vacation rental properties (Kingsland, New Braunfels) and love hosting! We take pride in giving our guest privacy and freedoms but making sure we communicate before and during their stay to their preference to make sure they have all their needs and questions covered.
Why they chose this property
We bought Love by the Lake in 2015. It was the end of a long drought and we saw how low other lakes were. So we made our focus on the constant water levels of Lake LBJ and looked all over the massive lake for months. When we found this gem we knew instantly! This was our home!
At the time, Kingsland was a bit of a sleeper town. Since then, it has grown into a fantastic town full of Lake Life, River Life, Nature...and now great restaurants, shops and more.
What makes this property unique
We are on a very unique strip of waterfront where the Llano River becomes Lake LBJ. We maintain constant level water from LBJ, but the nature, peace, the quiet and the variety that comes with the Llano River. Our mostly sandy bottom and shallower waters are appealing for all ages. And long lush grassy lawn faces the westward lake and mountains in the background creating some of the best sunset in Texas!
We have a large and comfortable home with an open family concept...but with unique private spots as well. There are lots of outdoor spaces for relaxing, cooking and playing games. Ample parking with our unique "parking lot" in front of the house and the local airstrip across the road which can be fun for all ages to watch the small plans come and go.
The best of sunsets, lawns, river life, lake life and family home...all wrapped in one!
