About this property

Tranquil Lake LBJ getaway! No boat traffic. Swim, Kayak, SUP & Fish in Peace! ❤️🦮

Welcome to the heart of Hill Country in this lovely single-story home, nestled at the top of the Colorado arm on Lake Lyndon B. Johnson. This gorgeous, secluded spot is above the shoals/rocks so large boats cannot access, making it the perfect place for the kids to explore on paddle boards and kayaks. It is the best fishing spot on the lake. Only 50 minutes from I-35 in Georgetown and surrounded by the most popular state park in Texas: Inks Lake State Park, as well as wineries, hiking, biking, fishing, and boating opportunities – with so much to keep you busy at home, no one will blame you if you don’t make it far.

You’ll find multiple places to gather outside, including the large covered patio with a fireplace and a great view of the lake to enjoy a morning coffee. A friendly game of darts or corn hole may be in order, and the kids will love splashing around on the small private dock. Grab one of the five kayaks available for your use and explore by water – this area of the lake is very quiet and no boat/jet ski traffic – perfect for kayaking, swimming, and standup paddle boarding as boats rarely travel nearby. Very safe and quiet place to explore the shoals and hidden waterfalls. In the evening, fire up the gas grill/griddle on the patio and dine alfresco at the large patio table. When night falls, gather at the patio fireplace to roast marshmallows and trade stories about the day.

Inside you’ll find spaces just as charming. The wide-open floor plan has the game room, dining room, living room and a chef's kitchen in one open space. In your gourmet kitchen, you can cook while watching the kids and entertain your guests at the 12 ft. butcher block island while always enjoying a view of the lake from any part of the room. The entire wall facing the lake has floor to ceiling windows that sets the tone of your lake vacation with family and friends.

About the host

Hosted by Greg Corrales

Host profile image
This house has been in the family for 15 years. My mom has moved out of it due to health reasons and instead of selling it, we decided to offer VRBO so that our kids and grand kids will have a place to vacation anytime.

Why they chose this property

We chose this property because it's away from all the hustle and bustle of the main lake. The entire family can enjoy kayaking, paddle boarding, exploring the creeks, the shoals and the waterfall without having to worry about a wake board boat and it's 5 ft wake wiping everyone out. This part of the lake is only accessible by pontoons and fishing boats. Also, one of the busiest state parks, Inks Lake State Park, is less than one mile away and offers many different hiking trails.

What makes this property unique

Because of the shoals, big wakeboard boats can’t access this part of the lake making it the most peaceful and safest part of the lake.

Premier Host

They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
