This is Lake Austin Retreat, a next-level lakefront getaway complete with a three-story boat dock that's perfect for launching off into the water—or simply taking a shaded seat to take in the lake breezes.



This brand-new build is stylish but not stuffy, family-friendly yet Instagram-worthy, with designer spaces inside and out that add a photogenic backdrop to your group's Lake Austin vacation.



All of this within a short drive to downtown Austin.



Lake Austin Retreat is perfect for lazy afternoons sipping cocktails on your elevated dock, but if you're itching for adventure, you can also hop in your boat and follow the river to Lake Austin waterfront eateries.



Bask in the lake breeze. Let our concierge stock Hill Country wine and beer for you to sip in the sunny outdoor lounge. A shady second story with a grill awaits your Texas-style cookouts, and a quiet patio is where you can steal a moment to yourself.



Enjoy waterfront dining (without a reservation). Get creative in a fully equipped kitchen with all-new stainless steel appliances. A high-top dining area makes serving meals easy. Linger as long as you like over dinner—from sunset to starry night sky.



Go explore. From here, the heart of Austin is just a short Uber or Lyft ride away! Catch live performances at renowned theaters and venues, wander the charming shops of South Congress, or sample some of the country’s best tacos and BBQ. Just outside the city, Hill Country awaits with beautiful views and five-star wineries and breweries.



Get cozy. There's nothing quite like kicking back. Find your spot on a cozy wraparound couch and fire up your favorite films on the flat-screen TV. Two full baths and three bedrooms offer flexible accommodations for everyone in your group. Bed sizes include a king-size master, a queen-size guest room, and a sleepover-ready bedroom with custom-built twin bunks that are sturdy enough for adults, too.



A private boat slip is available for rent at $200 per day. The slip accommodates boats up to 25 feet in length. If you are bringing a trailer, it may be parked in the driveway during your stay.

    Beautiful home with beautiful views of the lake. The 3 story deck right on the water was amazing!

    The property is located above the water,with a lift for your boat. The property is amazing and well equipped for inside or outside cooking. Would love to have stayed longer.

    One of the most relaxing vacation destination spots we have ever been to. Very clean, comfortable and serene. Had a great time fishing off the dock, relaxing on top of the dock and spending quality time with the family. Would 100% come back!

    Quiet and peaceful, clean. Just relaxed. Only thing the unit was cold and it was not easy figuring out how to change thermostat. Suggest instructions for thermostat and tv written down. Highly recommended

    We were very pleased with the location and the ability to relax in the mornings with a long music day. I would stay again, however, for improvements the owners need to make the technology a bit simpler. Never was able to just get local tv downstairs and the iPad to work the AC was not able to open. Rentals need instructions and if your management company says they are available 24/7 then someone needs to pick up the phone. We waited the 24 hours to get answers and never got a fix.

    We really loved our stay here - the home had everything we needed and was so nice to be on the water to watch the boats go by. We were also about 20 minutes from everything we wanted to do. Really nice stay!

    We planned a family vacation by the lake w/ hopes to relax, unplug & enjoy some time on the water. The PROs - Family area, kitchen, bathrooms & bdrms were clean, spacious & well-appointed with nice furniture & up-to-date amenities. The indoor/outdoor living spaces were lovely. We were steps from the water/deck/boat dock. The management company was readily accessible thru the app. Overall, this was a lovely home with all we needed with a few exceptions. The GLITCHES: At this time, it was extremely hot outside (multiple days with 100+ temperatures). 1) The A/C Condensor units failed on the 1st night. We contacted the management company in the am & they sent a maintenance person to install 2 portable window A/C units that afternoon. He did a nice, clean job but the materials failed & the cardboard/duct tape pulled out of the window around 2 am the next night. Another HOT night. The next day, the management company sent out a professional a/c repair technician who said major work needed to be done to the units BUT the work had to be authorized & could NOT be done any time soon. Meanwhile, we had to check the portable units throughout the day & night to ensure the seals not pull away again. The home never truly cooled down. 2. A boat is pictured (& a review stated it was nice to use), but neither boat nor the boat lift was available. 3. Ants in bathroom (looking for water?) 4. Multiple random packages were delivered to home. We pulled them in & placed them in hallway.
