Relaxing and beautiful

This property was exactly what was described. It was relaxing and entertaining. Our boys loved it so much they asked to stay all summer long. It was great to see them engaged in all the games versus on digital devices. I highly recommend this property.

Great space for a big family!

This place served us well for a big Easter get together with lots of family. We loved being able to spread out at the big dining tables and lounge areas. The back patios and big backyard were great. It was easy to cook in the well stocked kitchen. Having so many bathrooms made our stay with multiple generations more enjoyable. It was a little unclear from the pictures that this house is directly off a county road. So there was not a neighborhood to walk or bike. But it is just a close 5 minute drive to the Arkansas Bend County Park, so that is a good place for kids to play. Great for big groups!

About the host

Hosted by Paul Graham

Host profile image
Short-term rentals offer a fantastic opportunity to bring people together to create unforgettable memories and experiences. I've seen this firsthand in my own life and through my parents' experiences. Curating special gatherings for groups of more than 16 people is a rare and cherished chance to connect with loved ones and new friends.

I love hosting because it fosters genuine human connection—a quality I believe is increasingly important in an age dominated by AI and social media. I deeply value providing a welcoming space and safe place where guests can enjoy incredible experiences and build meaningful relationships.

Welcome! We are glad you are here.

Entertainment Options: Ability to host large gatherings inside or outside. Each piece of furniture and the amenities bring a sense of fun and connection! This isn't your average vacation property.

Scenic Location: In Lago Vista, you can enjoy the natural beauty of Texas Hill Country, with opportunities for hiking, boating, and exploring nearby attractions. Or come stay and never leave the house. That works too. It's quiet out here!
