The Beach House on Lake Travis - sleeps 12
Our house is located up a cove with partial lake views. There is a public boat ramp only minutes from the house by land or water if you choose to bring your own boat. While most properties on Lake Travis are at least an hour from downtown, our location is only 35 minutes from downtown Austin so you can enjoy the lake and nightlife. Great for couples and families with kids. Not suitable for events or loud groups/parties.
The space My husband and I fell in love with Lake Travis and often come here to recuperate when the outside world gets too noisy. At our home, you'll find a haven to unwind, have a glass of wine, a stocked kitchen to prepare meals and all the sounds nature has to offer (cicadas, crickets and more wonderful noises!).
We are situated in a quiet, beautiful corner of Lake Travis called Mermaid's Cove (currently water levels do not make our home lake front), We are just a 7 minute walk (.5 miles) or a 2 minute ride by boat to Sundancer Grill (bar, restaurant etc).
There is a large grill, ample outdoor furniture (4 chairs, 2 loungers on our deck, two sitting areas on our main balcony and a living area located in the master bedroom balcony) and three parking spots for your group (1 car will fit in our covered car port, 3 cars behind that in our driveway. The extra long drive way is not a suitable place for more cars as you will need the room to turn your cars around (please do not use our neighbor's driveway). We hope you'll come stay and enjoy our home, the beautiful lake and all Austin has to offer.

Spacious lakehouse in quiet location
The property was as described, comfortable and spacious. It had all necessary amenities. We loved the quietness of the location, and amenities were all a short drive away. The neighbourhood one drives through to reach the property had some less well kempt areas, but overall we liked our stay and it was just what we were looking for - somewhere quiet, off the beaten path yet comfortable where we could enjoy the 2024 solar eclipse.

Spring break 2022
There is NO water at the property at all therefore, you are not able to enjoy water, the firepit with the chairs and the boat dock. Also, the smoke detector in the second bedroom went off at 6:00 am on two different occasions, waking everyone in the house.

Pictures don’t do it justice
This property is beautiful. The pictures really don’t capture it’s charm. Stayed here with 10 friends to celebrate our girl getting married. Plenty of room to spread out and everything was updated and clean. Only complaint is the water levels were low, so no water access in back. Diane was amazing! Very communicative and helpful. Highly recommend if you have a boat day planned on the lake or want something a little more quiet away from the city.

The Yellow House
This is a lovely property. The layout of the house is great. Diana was very responsive and helpful. In the summer time this place will be amazing.
Getting to the property was a little confusing but just keep driving! I would stay again and would definitely recommend this location if you are looking for a cool and comfortable stay.
