About this house rental

Situated in Lake Austin, this attractive house for $385 per night is a fantastic option for your next trip. WE ARE TAKING EXTRA PRECAUTIONS DISINFECTING OUR HOUSE IN LIGHT OF THE COVID-19 VIRUS. Lake Austin waterfront is a great place to escape all year around. Lake Austin Retreat offers a beautiful Mexican style waterfront property with a boat dock, huge decks and a hot tub situated on a secluded bend of Lake Austin just 20 miles from downtown Austin. Relax, unwind, enjoy the stand up paddle boards, swim, canoe, kayak, bird-watch, fish, or enjoy a spa-treatment at nearby Lake Austin Spa. The house accommodates 6 guests (if your group is larger than 6, please consider renting a neighbor's property which sleep's 6, in addition to ours - Homeaway Property # 7064882 or VRBO#3580000), and the spacious back yard offers an abundance of outdoor space for socializing, BBQ'n, playing or enjoying quiet hammock-time. Bring your boat and ski (boats can be moored at the dock but no boat lift is available), or lounge by the water's edge and drink in the view of the Golden Cheeked-Warbler habitat directly across the lake. You will love taking advantage of the most peaceful stretch of Lake Austin. Mornings are not to be missed. Grab your coffee or tea and watch the morning fog pull back revealing a glass-like surface that mirrors the rolling hills above. Just 35 Miles from the new F-1 Track in Austin, 20 miles from SXSW and ACL Festival. The Activities: By Day - Canoeing, kayaking (life jackets and paddles provided), hiking, swimming, fishing, golfing, skiing and wakeboarding, bring your boat and moor it at the dock. You can canoe, kayak or walk 1/4 mile to the Lake Austin Spa for world-class spa services. By Night - Dining, grilling, star-gazing or hitting the downtown or lakeside Austin nightlife. Out of respect for our neighbors, we ask that only three cars be parked at our home and that our guests not use the HOA Boat Ramp and Park next door. The public boat ramp at Mary Quinlan Park is only 1/4 mile away and is much safer. There is also additional parking there for guests temporarily visiting during your stay. In keeping with the local ordinances, we have a strict policy that forbids parties at our home. Thank you for your consideration of our home and our rules. STR License Number OL 2017 063779

Great house, beautiful location by the water. Great property for outdoor activities and the owner provides some great yard games and the yard to support them. Plus canoes, kayaks and paddle boards to take advantage the lake access.

This place was ideal for a girls trip to just relax on the lawn and float in the water, and laugh and play CDs on the stereo provided. Private spot too.

Perfect location for a relaxing vacation with our daughter and SIL. Close enough to city for a night out but honestly spent majority of our time on the beautiful lake. House is clean and very well equipped and property was perfect. The upper deck provided us a great spot to spend the warm days. Will definitely look to return next year.

This was the perfect lake house for our water activity loving family. The boat slip was super accessible for sunrise and sunset ski runs. Paddle boarding and other water toys provided by the rental entertained our group all day. The kitchen was awesome for home cooked meals while we enjoyed listening to the WIDE selection of CD’s provided. Plenty of sleep options. Bathroom was very “Austin” and clean…and washer and dryer were clutch. The mountain view in the evenings from the lakeside deck was breathtaking. Looking at the calendar to book our next trip now!

This VRBO is right on the water and that is very nice. That is the only positive thing I can say. We were very disappointed with the unsanitary conditions. Upon arrival, immediately we could tell the place had not been properly cleaned. Or maybe that was just the usual standard of "clean". Nothing was fresh or clean smelling. The kitchen drawers and cabinets were crusted with food, with it running down the front of cabinets. The sheets were dirty and had hairs and crumbs. The pillows under the pillow covers had brown stains and made us feel sick to lay on. The couch itself smelled and had lots of debris and stains. We didn't feel comfortable even sitting on it. The ac vents are moldy and huge clods of hair stuck to the larger intake vent by the floor. The bathroom shower and toilet area smelled of urine and smoke. The floor was sticky so we always wore shoes. The sliding back door closes and the wooden dowel came down and got stuck, locking us out twice. But the worst part and the deal breaker for us was the pest problem. There were roaches of all sizes, inside and out. One ran over my son's foot while he was using the restroom. A man and woman couple entered the property several times to access their boat, leaving the gate open allowing our dog to escape. Myself and daughter got sick afterwards and I developed bronchitis. I spoke with the owner who argued with me then reluctantly refunded the cleaning fee. This place would take a month to get clean. Stay somewhere else!

We have stayed here twice now and both times had a great time. Lots to do on the water including paddle boarding, kayaking, and canoeing. Beautiful views of Lake Austin and family friendly accommodations.
