Good works
I'm conflicted on this review - the property was clean and with lots of sundries and supplies, beds were great, firepiit nice, no complaints, overall very good. However, with the lake withdrawn for years around a half mile from the house, this was not even close to waterfront pic they proudly show on the site. Yes, there was a clear disclaimer in the text, so no bait and switch, but leaving the photo up today with the lake down for years, then placing the disclaimer in to avoid liability, well it just doesn't seem to be upfront. Sort of a marketing gimmick. How easy to just replace the photo so people know what they are getting? Why leave a misleading impression? The house is priced right on by the night on first look but with a large cleaning fee you don't see until you checkout, its a good deal but not a great deal. Its all disclosed but only after you fall in love with the great - while in reality its just good. However these days, Good works.

Great Waterfront Location
This place was perfect. The house was very comfortable, clean, and relaxing. Loved the windows and big sliding door that looked out onto the lake. It was so nice being able to walk out the sliding door to sit on the grass lawn with ample trees around to provide shade. The lake is down, which we knew after talking to the owners, but it was still easy to walk out to the water on a sandy shore. It was quiet and peaceful. Highly recommend this place!

Great get away spot!
All that is advertised! Driveway is a little tight for large vehicles, but manageable. Water was low, but that is a seasonal thing. Would love to go back when the lake is back up to the dock.

About the host

Hosted by Tim Barnes

Host profile image
Hi, we’re Tim & Ben! We love sharing our lakehouse and hosting guests :-) We’ve lived in Arizona, California, Colorado, and now we’re near Austin, Texas. We like our guests to have a 5-star experience so we go the extra mile with attention to detail and quick responses to your questions and any needs that may arise during your stay. Come see us!

Why they chose this property

The lakehouse sits directly on the waterfront and offers gorgeous views of the lake, sunset, and sunrise. You'll feel a million miles away from the hustle and bustle of city life but you're still a short drive away from Austin. Here, you can take it easy, unwind and relax.

What makes this property unique

The property includes a boat dock for fishing. There are bbq grills and a smokehouse for grilling. The fire pit is a big hit for making s'mores and enjoying the night sky. You can relax in the hammock outside or play a game of cornhole on the grassy lawn. The water's edge is only steps away from the lakehouse patio and perfect for waterplay with the inflatables and other water toys we provide. We also offer boat rental to our guests. Inquire if you're interested.
