ULTIMATE TX LAKE HOUSE! Waterfront, 360 Views, Lake Travis, Austin, Hill Country

Words cant describe the beauty of this home, from the friendly deer throughout the yard, till the beautiful sunsets and sunrises. If your looking for a little piece of heaven this is the place to be.

We stayed Friday to Monday with family and friends. Check in was a breeze, the home was ready and nice and cool when we walked in. Which was really nice because we were hitting the 90s at check in. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. We cooked breakfast, lunch and dinner every day. They did have a nice clean grill but we brought our Blackstone and grilled down on the large stone patio downstairs. It was really nice to grill with the lake view and in the shade. The upstairs game room was a hit! It was nice that it wasnt tucked away in some other part of the house because we were all able to stay together and watch the basketball games on the large flat-screen TV in the living room. The view was amazing, we sat out on the deck and watched the deer, the bats and even a few coyotes one night. The rooms were great and everyone enjoyed the space in each room. The beds were comfy and the sheets were so soft and helped me get a great night sleep. We would totally recommend the large lake house for family and friends to share.

The property is very spacious, easy to accommodate and able to have a bedroom with bathroom. Nice scenario to admire God's creations, we love are time there.

Functionality, it was everything we needed. Outstanding view and hanging out on the deck was great. We saw deer several times a day. Darts and pool table was fun. Plenty of bathrooms and space to handle a lot of people.The cons are mainly about the age and lack of updating of most things. Lighting was not good for darts or playing games at kitchen table. The deck stairs need land stone walkways need work. Based on water level the pictures are from a long time ago. They are accurate but do a good job of hiding th and quirks. Priced about right and it’s possible we might rent again.

The issues we had staying at this house in March 2024 are the same as Lisa's when she stayed at the house in Oct 2023 (her review was posted in Dec 2023). Similar to Lisa S., we couldn't get into the house on the 1st day of our arrival. In our case we were given the wrong door code and couldn't get a hold of the host for ~40 mins. We contacted VRBO and they couldn't get hold of the host (Brittany) either. VRBO was apologetic and was about to cancel the booking and refund us when the host texted back and gave us the correct code. The house was wasn't cleaned or properly stocked with toilet paper and papers towels. We had the same issues with dust, cobwebs, and mouse droppings/feces in the kitchen. The host told us that no one had been at the house for six weeks and blamed their cleaning company for not doing their job properly. The host offered to send a cleaning person, but we declined her offer. We weren't comfortable with someone cleaning the house while we were staying there on vacation. The host did have paper towels and napkins delivered the next day, but didn't deliver any toilet paper. We also asked for a refund for 1 night, which the host/owner partially fulfilled. I experienced the same defensiveness that Lisa S. described when I asked the host/owner to follow through on the refund. In hindsight, we should have paid more attention to the previous reviews. The issues Lisa documented were not resolved in the 5 months between her stay and ours.

The house is large and comfortable with great views. We were able to enjoy the weekend despite the following problems. 4 days prior to arrival I asked for check-in information. On our day of arrival Britney forgot about us and left us out in the weather. An unrealistic offer was made to make amends. Housekeeping is lacking- Paper and hair on floor at entry Hair on rugs Abundance of spider webs Dirty dishes in kitchen cabinets Excrement in kitchen drawers Maintenance is lacking- Hand railings are rough Decks are rough Televisions not working Dryer broken Bath fixtures falling off Vertical blinds not working and falling apart Window AC freezes up Cabinets don't close Master does not have a jetted tub Broken chair at dining table Dangerous step to ground bedroom Master AC dripping woke us up and was reported early to the owner. No one responded for over 4 hours. The wrong repair person arrived about 9.5 hours after report and couldn't make repairs. The scenario interfered with our plans. Rather than acting defensively with we writers, you should appreciate that we take time to let you know. Efforts should be made to rectify the continued problems.

We had a great time. Plenty of room in the house as well as outside. The kids had room to throw the football and play baseball. We enjoyed the deer so much. We took advantage of the neighborhood pool The only thing I would suggest is having teflon friendly cooking utensils. It would have saved your pots and pans

We had a great time here at this house… lots of room to hang out together with a large family. Property was clean and very comfortable, neighbors were awesome. Look forward to our next trip. Thanks

We had a great time in our stay. The space is beautiful with lots of outdoor space and a wonderful view of the lake. I will recommend this house to all friends who visit the area. Also, the host was wonderful to work with.

Deck is in need of maintenance. Very splintery. The sunsets were great and the abundance of deer was amazing. Lake water was so low it interfered with lake plans. Bummer. Overall, a good family gathering.
