Two-story waterfront retreat with boat dock, two firepits & two kayaks

Make a date at the lake at this relaxing waterfront retreat tucked away on the northern stretch of Lake LBJ, located directly across from a 150-acre nature sanctuary filled with an abundance of natural habitats, songbirds, shorebirds, and waterfowl. You'll feel like you've gone off the grid within this tranquil section of the Colorado River. Whether you're spending your days floating next to the dock, adventuring out on the provided blow-up kayaks, sampling the wares at local wineries, or just relaxing at home in the hammock, your stay here is sure to be the highlight of your next vacation in the heart of the state.

This charming, family-friendly vacation rental offers spectacular views of the water from both levels and almost every room. Prepare your favorite dishes in the well-equipped, full kitchen, complete with a wine fridge, and then dine shoulder to shoulder at the attached breakfast bar, out back on the furnished patio, or over the water on the covered dock. You'll also find a gas grill for putting a little extra char on your home-cooked menu. After meals, meet up in the lower-level living area to stream your favorite channels on the TV, or climb the spiral staircase and kick back in the second living space where you'll find a sofa bed, another TV, and a wide variety of board games for rainy day fun.

Back outside, enjoy 85 feet of waterfront on Lake LBJ, where you can also put your boat in from the neighboring lot, which offers one of only two neighborhood boat ramps. Bring your fishing rod and catch a five-pound bass - this quiet stretch of the lake provides great fishing. There are plenty of spots out back to relax, soak up the sunshine, and watch for visiting wildlife, so pick a chair or a chaise lounge and unwind. Toward evening, two firepits provide the perfect space to gather and recap the evening. Another eventful day awaits tomorrow!

Things to Know
In November 2023, Starlink high-speed internet was installed. No WiFi/internet outages or disruptions have been reported since its installation.
Streaming TV services require guest accounts to access.
Due to the Hill Country location of our rentals, you may encounter situations with wildlife/pests. Please be aware of your surroundings, take caution while driving at night and supervise your children at all times while outdoors. In addition, all properties do utilize pest control maintenance on a regular basis, BUT this does not guarantee pests/bugs/critters will not be visible.

First, the House and Property were just as advertised. It was super quiet, beautiful view, caught some perch and few drum by the dock, and let them live to fight another day. It was close to several other lakes and sites, which made it great central location. The House was clean enough and no fault of the Owners, however it could have had a bit more attention before our arrival. Again, no fault of the owners and it was a great stay.

The house was beautiful and the location was perfect - We enjoyed getting to jump right into the water from the dock. The property was so peaceful and another perk was HEB/Restaurants weren't too far away
