About this property

PLEASE NOTE: WE ONLY BOOK VIA VRBO. THIS IS A VERY POPULAR PLACE TO RENT, WHICH IS PRONE FOR SCAMS.
Come spend your vacation at Captain Jay's Castle on a private, always deep water Lake Travis cove with amazing sunsets year-round ! Lake Travis is not a constant level lake therefore the private floating dock is moved according to lake levels and accessing lake may be more challenging when water is lower but cove is always deep and swimmable! Accessibility may be difficult for young children and those with mobility issues. It’s great for fossil hunting!
Our private dock has a pontoon boat and jet ski for rent (lowest price and best maintained in area) and is well lit at night to enjoy sitting right on the water. Kayaks, paddle boards, and other water toys are available to enjoy at no extra charge. The cove is a local popular fishing spot so anglers bring your gear.
The Castle has 3 large bedrooms with in suite bathrooms, a 1/2 bath downstairs as well as an open sleeping area upstairs with a trundle and full sized bed.
