Nestled just around the corner from the Burnet County Park Boat Ramp, the property offers effortless access to boating, swimming, and lake adventures.

Directly across the street, guests will find the Blue Store—a local favorite where you can fuel up, grab essentials or snacks, and even order made-to-order pizza. A brand-new restaurant (opened in 2024) also sits conveniently across the road, giving you even more dining options just steps from your door.

Only minutes away, Spider Mountain Bike Park promises adrenaline-pumping fun with a unique lift-served downhill biking experience. Riders of all skill levels can take the chair lift to the top and cruise down a variety of trails—an unforgettable adventure just 7 minutes from the property.

For a relaxed outing, head to Templeton’s, a local hot spot known for delicious food, great drinks, and a fun, laid-back atmosphere. Enjoy a game of pickleball, disc golf, or billiards while taking in the Hill Country vibe.

Nature lovers will appreciate our proximity to Canyon of the Eagles, which features scenic hiking trails (available for a small access fee) and a restaurant with expansive lake views. Reveille Ranch also lies nearby, offering more outdoor opportunities and tranquil scenery.

Guests can easily explore the surrounding area with visits to Vanishing Texas River Cruises, Falkenstein Castle, the Eagle Eye Observatory, Hidden Falls Adventure Park, and Sweet Berry Farms. The area is also home to charming shopping districts, antique shops, historic landmarks, peaceful fishing spots, and some of the best wineries in the Texas Hill Country.

Whether you're seeking adventure, relaxation, or a little of both, Whitetail Cove places you in the heart of it all—while still offering the peace and privacy our guests love.

    Clean, modern, comfortable, with excellent views. The only thing that was disappointing is this place is not conducive to night fishing. Make note, if you want to fish at night, there is no lighting at night. The descriptions do not mention night fishing, so do not assume like us that you can fish at night. Otherwise, it was a relaxing stay.

    This property is a dream house! It has absolutely everything needed to have the perfect vacation and its location next to the lake is awesome! Outdoor games, kayaks, indoor games, extra towels and blankets, kitchen utensils, coffee bar, you name it, whatever we needed, everything was provided, which made our stay the most relaxing and enjoyable one! And on top of that, the host, Trish, was outstanding! She was the best at communicating and her property, super clean and tidy, speaks volumes about how well organized and a great host she is! Would absolutely love to come back!

    The home was as advertised. When we walked in the door to the patio drew every one of us. Quiet, relaxing and a great place to retreat. Would definitely come back.

    I've traveled a lot with families and friends together. We stay at hotels but always prefer vacation homes for the convenience of cooking and having shared space for kids to play without leaving our sight. This is THE BEST house I've ever stayed in 5 years. Great location by the lake, beautiful decorations, most importantly, everything is high quality and not just appears pretty on pictures. The owner is so thoughtful that basically everything you need for a family trip is available. It has ping-pong table, kayaks, grills, huge and modern kitchen, huge living space, lots of beds and 3 showers. The house has more to offer than what you see on the listing. We already decided that we will come back soon. Thank you Trisha for hosting us

    The house is very nice and much more than we expected. So many amenities. We enjoyed the paddle boards, the kayak, barbecue grill and the fire pit The house is located near so many activities within 30 minutes or so. We rented jet skis and explored lake LBJ. We also drove to Colorado Bend State Park. It was a great three day weekend.

    the entire family enjoyed their stay there. Plenty of space and the pier was perfect for watching the sunrise and sunset. Fishing wasn't to bad. We wished we could have rented a boat though but that wasn't the owners fault otherwise it was a great and relaxing time.

    This house has been totally updated and looks exactly like its pictures on VRBO. The views of the lake and access to just walk right up to the water and the dock was exactly what we were looking for. We spent most of our time outside except when eating and the nightly firepit and chairs right at the water's edge was a great way to spend the evenings. This was our annual Father's Day Trip (a week early) and was enjoyed by all. Very easy to locate also!!!
