About this property

Classic Lakefront Cottage w/ Private Dock, Lovely Lake View, Backyard & WiFi

Little House on LBJ

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

A throwback to the simple vacations of yesteryear, this waterfront cottage on the shores of Lake LBJ is a place to swim off the dock, barbecue in the Texas sunshine, and dine on the grass in the shade of the trees.

This single-level, lakefront home is located on the northern shores of Lake LBJ, on a grassy piece of property with its own dock on the water. As you come back up the grounds from your morning swim, you'll be greeted by central air conditioning, free WiFi, and a window-lined sun room where you can kick back on the sofa, watch Netflix on the flatscreen TV, or simply take in the beautiful lake view. You can prepare an afternoon feast in the classic kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a circular dining table for four. Or, head out back to light the gas grill, throw on a few steaks, and dine beneath the umbrella at the table in the grass.

The little house we stayed in has good water access. My husband enjoyed the fishing and all the boats and jet ski's. It has a pretty green yard where we enjoyed seeing the ducks and squirrels play.

Just Beautiful

The great location on. the water.was special. The grill lighter issue was disappointing. Then also the grill was dirty. Some feel grills are suppose to be covered with old grease, I don't. It's easy to keep the grill burnt off. Thank you.

The property was beautiful. Cottage was charming but lacked expected provisions (no salt or pepper, there were no games or reading material, the grill's ignitor didn't work but with call to your service a lighter was provided 40 minutes later. The peace was not there , with construction next door. And not expected real tranquel setting was disturbed by a great deal of boat & water sports equipment on the water. This was very much so with a boat landing immediately across the water. May be much better at another time of year when young vacationers wouldn't be so very present.

Wonderful Relaxing Getaway

My husband and i really needed a few days away to relax with the dogs. This place could not be more perfect. Beautiful yard, great view of the water and the dock is in great shape. Our dogs loved it and even seemed more relaxed. The kitchen was great, enough room to cook your favorite vacation meals. The place may not be new but it’s super clean and cozy. The bed is extremely comfortable and it was so quiet we slept great. We will be back as soon as possible!

So we had trouble sleeping ...

The large pecan limb pictured above the roof actually bangs on the roof. The volume on the metal roof ranged from a kitchen pan to loud band's bass drum. Needs tree work and a landscaping cleanup.

Great weekend getaway!

My husband and I, and our little dog stayed here to celebrate our anniversary. It was a clean, quiet place and we enjoyed sitting outside on Saturday afternoon watching all the boat and jet ski traffic. Children's laughter in the distance was so enjoyable. I would highly recommend this home.

Perfect location right on the water. Clean and cozy cabin that was ideal for a mother daughter “glamping” trip.

The cabin is nice and cozy. Clean. Comfy bed. The sofa and chair in the living room are super comfortable. The views from the living room are amazing. Enjoyed my coffee and book in the morning. Bring a lighter if you want to BBQ as the ignition is broken on the grill. No biggie. The dock was broken apart and we weren’t told about it. Apparently it’s getting repaired this next week so for those of you in the future it should be good. Vacasa was pretty bad on communication. They finally had a local person respond to us 22 hours later. In the end they gave us a credit of 25 a night for amenity fee refund which we were thankful for. We didn’t get to swim or enjoy the river much because no way to get in and out. But still a nice place. We caught a bunch of perch from the shore and one catfish. We would come back when the deck is fixed to enjoy fishing, swimming and kayaking on that part of it.

Nice place

Water was extremely hard, couldn’t even shower with how bad it smelt.Gas grill ignition is broke but there was a lighter under the pit that I got to spark a bit and get it lit. Other than that the place was nice, we enjoyed our stay but if we were there more than one night we would have had to find a shower somewhere else

Relaxing getaway

This was the perfect spot for a quick couples getaway. We made use of the grill and the dock, and the kitchen was stocked with all basic supplies/appliances that we needed. Easy check in and check out process.

Cute home on lake

This house was fully equipped in the kitchen. The bed was extremely comfortable. The back yard was on the beautiful lake. It was a great place and I hope to stay there again.

We loved how we were on the water with a private dock and beautiful back yard. The Cottage was very quaint, but needs some updating and a once thorough cleaning before quests arrive - dead bugs (better than live) laying around in the floors. Toilet needs some repair work. And where to park was a bit confusing. But overall - loved the location and the veiw on the lake!!!!

Great little Gem of a house!

One of the best values for the $$$. The house is super cute! The rolling lawns are beautiful- and swimming off the dock was awesome… Private parking and hay fields across the way were scenic. Much better in person- the pictures don’t do it justice. We would come back in a heartbeat.

I was looking for a quiet, restorative home away from home. This serves that purpose very well! Over and above excellence. Clean, comfortable, convenient. I would buy this home if possible!

Lake Life

We really enjoyed our stay. The cabin was clean except the day bed sheets were dirty. The backyard was wonderful. Big trees, beautiful grass and on the water. Swimming was just off the dock and “riding “ the waves from the boats and jet skis was fun. They need some signage for the house and where to park. It stated to park in front of the house but we didn’t know if that was the cabin or not. A sign would help.
