The home was so spacious! We had ample room for eating and hanging out for 8 adults. The beds were comfortable. It was a great house. The only negative was the incline of the driveway. So steep!

Mary, thank you for your review, we appreciate you taking the time to provide us with your valuable feedback. While the kitchen is stocked with all the cookware and utensils needed to prepare meals, food and other pantry items like coffee and tea are not typically stocked in the home. We encourage guests to plan if they anticipate needing additional items during their stay. We hope to have another chance to impress you in the future!
The property was amazing and perfect for our family. It was nice to have the pool table. There is an electronic dart board but they didn’t have the correct darts so we couldn’t use it. The fire pit was very nice also.

The place is nice (very similar to what is posted). However, the dishwasher wasn’t working so I spent most of my time hand washing the dishes after each family meal (instead of the family bonding that I wanted to do this holiday).
The location is a bit far from groceries so planning for supplies is a must.

Great location, property could use some updates
Loved the location and the layout, but the house could use some TLC, there were a couple broken cabinet doors and the yard was in need of maintenance. There was only 1 dart for the dart board, and several pool cues were missing tips. Overall this was a good property that met our needs, if we had a longer stay, these minor inconveniences would have more of an impact, but for our weekend stay, these were really minor and had very little impact.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us, we’re pleased you enjoyed our home’s layout and its location served you well! That said, we apologize for any areas you found needing some TLC. Our local manager noted that there has been a lot of rain lately which has caused the grass to grow faster than normal and we appreciate your feedback. They inspected the cabinets and found them to be in good repair and the dart game is being replaced. Extra pool tips are on the pool cue holder next to the pool table. We enjoyed having you as our guest and we hope to host you again.
It was an amazing house. Great for entertainment but there is no access to the lake or any body of water for more than a 30-minute drive. The description of the property says just a short walk to the lake however unless you plan to illegally enter the lake without a pass and after a 20-minute walk in the woods then... The gas grill did not cook our steaks so we had to cook inside. I know now that this house is only for entertaining and the amazing view.

Hi, Juanita! Thank you so much for staying with us and sharing your review. The gas grill has been replaced. This home is not lake front, nor does it have lake access; however, guests can walk to the lake from the home. We hope to see you again!

Great home...a few things missing
The house and view are fantastic! Exactly as described. There is no lake access which is not explicity spelled out until you rent it. If that is a deal breaker, move along. I did find the house laking in some of the extra details that usually available in places like this. Very limited cleaning supplies, very limited amount of kitchen "extras." The only thing beyond pots and pans had obviously been left there by previous people. With some extra touches the house would be 5 start worthy!

We appreciate your feedback and welcome the opportunity to better improve our homes for future guests. We hope to have another chance to impress you in the future!
This house had a great layout and view. We went on a family friends trip with our teens and the game room was a huge plus. We only had a few issues. There were a bunch of dead bugs on the windowsills that had not been cleaned off prior to our arrival. We got a house for this trip so we could save money and make meals there. The kitchen was not well supplied and a couple of dishes were not very clean. They had one 1 cup measuring cup and no measuring spoons. I found 1 small mixing bowl and 2 small cutting boards. There were only 2 small skillets so it was hard to make enough food at once to feed everyone. When getting out of the secondary shower on the first floor, the entire shower curtain and rod fell down. The kids said that the downstairs rooms were warm and did not have ceiling fans so they couldn’t cool it off. The balcony off of the living room had a great view but needs some cleaning. The fans and pulls cords were covered in dead bugs. The fire pit was fun but we were not able to get any of the logs burn. We were able to gather enough twigs from the yard to get a fire going long enough to make s’mores. There is a dart board but you will need to bring some more darts. Overall it was not bad, and with a little TLC, it could be great.

Well maintained home, close to river Colorado, minutes away from boating, ideal for a 10 people. Had an issue with AC which was promptly taken care of.

Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy
the house is big enough for 7 people the amenities were ok except for the fire pit.
the house is nice and spacious. Lacking kitchen supplies and clean porch. The house has great potential if those few are addressed.
Top notch areas!
-Comfy Mattress and bedding
-No pet odor
-Comfy den with amazing view from kitchen
-Amazing neighborhood with NO traffic!
-Friend deer with adorable babies!
The negatives
- Steep areas in front and back
- Grass burs in back can hurt doggie paws.
- Lake is all private in Lago Vista
We had two families stay at this property while meeting up with a third that relocated to Austin. Chris (local property manager) was fantastic to work with, and made us feel at home before we even got there!
The house was exactly what we were looking for & in a perfect location for both Austin excursions and lake days.
(Noted…..the property itself does not have lake access & we didn’t expect any. Dink Pearson park is just up the road, and we also took advantage of local attractions).

Great space for a family to gather!
We loved the view of the lake from the deck! The home had enough space for our family of 8!
