Fun on the Lake
Several friends and I moved our freshmen into their dorms at UT. We rented this house so that we had one day to hang with them on the lake before we left. We rented a boat that picked us up at the dock of this home and spent the day on Lake Austin. It all worked out perfectly!
The house was nice and clean. Only 30 minutes from the UT campus. There was plenty of room for us to spread out!
I would highly recommend it!

A Week on Lake Austin
My family had a great experience at the house. We had everything we needed, and the serene location offered views of the lake, making each morning feel magical. The house itself was cozy, clean (except for the windows, but I didn’t say anything, and the manager was so nice, he would have probably sent someone to clean them) and well-equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable week-long stay. This getaway provided the perfect balance of relaxation and adventure, and we can't wait to return next year!

A Marvelous Escape
It was an amazing experience for us. Lucas was outstanding, communicating and resposive always to our needs. Intitially we booked for one night, but we were so mesmerized with the Colorado river, and the paddleboats and kayak's that we wanted to extend one more night. And gues what? Lucas promptly made it happen, even sweeter with a 40% discount on second night. The property was super clean, equipped with everything you need to escape for a lakefront property. We will go back in Spring or Summer again. A must VISIT.
