Photos and Description of the Lower Basin Lake Travis vacation house rental
Over 1 acre; On the water; Close to downtown - Sleeps up to 10

STAY ON THE LAKE! CLOSEST TO TOWN! MAIN BASIN - NEAR DAM!

The Palms on Lake Travis is a privately-owned, gated, high-end, resort vacation rental for those who wish to stay on Lake Travis. The Palms is conveniently located lakeside, 1 mile from the Oasis ('The Sunset Capital of Texas') on the scenic Comanche Trail drive around the main basin of Lake Travis. This location is prime for those who want to enjoy Austin - it is only a 30 minute drive to downtown Austin and about a 35 minute drive to the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport!

There are two guest units on The Palms property that sleep up to 10 in total. For parties of 6 or less, we can offer the Garden House only at a lower cost.

A cove and covered dock is available to use for swimming, fishing, and sunbathing. Boaters may tie up to the dock with advanced notice. A public boat launch is located just across the main basin from us (you can see it from the property) at Mansfield Dam - it's about a 3 mile boat ride.

Main website and Facebook: Please visit our main website for additional information - http://ThePalmsOnLakeTravis.com

WEDDINGS AND EVENTS: Please note that, due to our setup, we are unable to participate in weddings or other events with more than 25 total guests. We also have chosen not to participate in bachelor parties of any sort. We welcome out of town guests and family members of the bridal party to stay with us, and we will make every effort to ensure they have an extremely enjoyable stay in Austin!

CALENDAR:

On dates where we have a partial rental (Garden House Only or Lakefront Suite Only), and the other portion is available for rent, it will appear as a Tentative Rental on our calendar. On those dates, we will have availability left for smaller groups of 4-6 guests at a lower rate, depending upon which unit is already taken. Feel free to reach out and ask us about those dates.

Our preferred method of contact is the Request Form on HomeAway or email. We have day jobs and receive too many calls to return in a timely manner. We have found that we can respond to you much more quickly via email.

WHAT'S INCLUDED WITH YOUR STAY AT THE PALMS?

We strive to provide things that you need to feel comfortable during your stay. Our goal is to have delighted guests that want to return and highly recommend us to their friends...

About Robin

We live on the property. We are there if you need something, but otherwise we stay out of your way. You might see us in the driveway or walking down through the backyard to get to the dock. We have both traveled a lot, and we strive to make The Palms everything that we want when we travel.

Robin purchased this house in 2010
Why Robin chose Lower Basin Lake Travis

The Palms is located on the gorgeous Lake Travis main basin. Lake Travis is a rock lake, which means the water is generally a sparkly blue color (vs the brownish water found in a muddier lake). The cliffs around it add to the beauty of the area. If you are looking for a relaxing getaway with a scenic view and privacy, this is the spot for you!

What makes this house unique

The main basin of Lake Travis is the closest area on the 65 mile lake to downtown. We are also conveniently located just a mile down the road from Oasis Texas, with several restaurants, shops, and live music! Since The Palms is on the main basin, we have a beautiful view of the lake, and you can walk down to the dock from the backyard! If you have a boat, you can even tie it up to the dock at no extra charge!

We really enjoyed our stay. The rooms were very clean and there were a ton of little extras that made the trip that much more enjoyable! We did not even leave the premises once while there. Rodney and Robin were both very nice and willing to answer all our questions!
Owner's Response: Thanks so much for doing a review! We hope to see you and your family again someday soon! :-)

We booked both houses for a girl's get away weekend. Not only were the owners wonderful and accommodating, the houses had everything we needed.
The grounds are absolutely beautiful. We had the best time relaxing by the hot tub, sunning in the deck chairs, cooking on the grill.
The houses are both fabulous. I felt like a queen in the master bedroom.
You could not go wrong staying at the Palms on Lake Travis!

Great Stay on Lake Travis

Our stay at the Palms was perfect. The location on Lake Travis and its proximity to local restaurants and shopping was ideal. It was very clean, well accommodated and Robin was the perfect host. The grounds were immaculate and we did not feel we lacked anything. The fridge and pantry were even stocked with starter items that were very helpful. I highly recommend staying there and we look forward to making this a Spring Break tradition.
Owner's Response: Thank you, Eric! I enjoyed meeting your family and we look forward to having you stay with us again someday soon! :-)
