Welcoming home overlooking lake bed with forested hill country views
A wonderful 2-story retreat on a cove of Lake Travis with beautiful hill country views. Two large balconies overlooking the cove, and limestone steps going down to the lake bed. The cove is currently dry, but the water level can rise depending on rainfall. Three bedrooms - master includes a Jacuzzi and beautiful shower, and a private top-floor balcony overlooking the hill country. The open-plan kitchen/dining/living space walks out to the lower balcony with plenty of seating and a large grill.
Head on down the beautiful limestone steps to a hiking area that leads to secret swimming holes and a waterfall when Lime Creek is flowing. There is seating on multiple levels to relax, enjoy the nature around, and entertain family and friends. Enjoy a fire or a picnic on the patio just down from the house. There is also a trail that goes through the trees to a point with consistent lake views and kayaks available on request. Then head back up to the balconies to watch the beautiful Texas sky. Enjoy the large record collection or watch your favorite movies on the 46" TV while cooking in the well-equipped and comfortable kitchen. The large, fenced-in front yard gives a nice contrast to the back area. Here, you get all the pleasures and relaxation of hill country living, but you're just a short drive from thriving Austin with its vibrant music scene and endless opportunities. *Note that Lake Travis fluctuates through the year depending on rainfall. Check current lake levels or reach out to find out the current level behind the house. It's currently dry and great for exploring but may rise with steady rainfall.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private balcony. A Smart television along with a DVD player are provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a desk and a microwave.
Enjoy recreation amenities such as a water park or take in the view from a garden.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Cute house, had everything we needed for a quick getaway for the eclipse. Lake bed is dry, which was unexpected given we’ve had so much rain this spring. Curious if it was drained for something. Enjoyed our stay!

Great stay
House was awesome. We had a family of 4 with plenty of room. House was clean with everything you needed. The stairs down to the lake was great exercise for the family. The lake was dried up to our advantage as the dogs had a blast and we also hiked the trails off the lake. Owners were very easy to contact and were very helpful to what ever we needed. Thanks George and Sam. We will definitely stay again when in town.

Nice Stay!
We knew from the beginning that there would be no water for canoeing but we enjoyed the beautiful decks and views of the gorgeous sunrise every morning. As promised the kitchen was well outfitted and clean except for the oven. We also found baking sheets and bowls that needed rewashing, but no problem for us. The hosts left plenty of paper towels, kitchen towels, condiments and spices, and even a nice bottle of wine-all appreciated greatly.
In the master bath, I would suggest placing an extra trash can in the toilet closet to make it easier for people to remember not to put anything in the toilet other than toilet paper. The master bed/bath is lovely and very large with lots of storage space and nice, new fluffy towels. The other bedrooms were fine as well, except the sleeping surface in the first bedroom was very, very hard. Thank you to our hosts for the extra mattress in the office space. We found our hosts to be very helpful and responsive to us. The home is perfect for a large family such as ours and we would definitely stay in this wonderful home again.

Mini Vacation
we decided to take the family on a mini vacation something different then the routine Destin trip. The property was very nice and quite. It was good taking time off to get away for a bit.The host was very helpful. the balcony was awesome plus outdoor grill. Regretfully the heat has dry out the cove but we were told in advance. Could not work the remote in the living room, internet would have been nice for the kids, other than that the house was well furnished . in all it was a nice stayed

We’ve stayed here multiple times while visiting family in Leander. We’ve never seen the lake view from the house but the beautiful hill country sunrises more than make up for it. The house is clean, spacious, convenient and check in/check-out is easy and contactless.

Great time and place, no lake below
We originally booked it to have a house on the lake, the pictures showed water right up to the edge of the house. after booking the owner reached out to let us know the water has been resessed and not at the house, we still had an amazing time and it is still a beautiful property! They just need to update pictures, all in all a great 4/5 stars ⭐ and a great place
