Lake Travis Waterfront Home - 4 Bed, 2 Bath, spectacular views, & private dock



Lake Travis waterfront home with private dock, kayaks, and territorial views of Lake Travis! This lovely country setting home has lots of privacy on about 3 acres with 4 spacious bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Enjoy the serene and private home and lounge on the dock or spacious decks. Your family will enjoy fishing, swimming, kayaking, playing games and/or sharing a meal overlooking the lake viewed from the large living room windows and deck. End your day fishing, swimming, kayaking, from the dock and finish with a spectacular sunset from the upper decks. Star gazing at night can also be quite breathtaking.

Fully registered Short Term Rental (STR) #OL 2023 007114.

Home is located only 20 minutes away from downtown Austin. The waterfront is typically steps away from the property and surrounded by beautiful foliage. Nearby is a boat launch and public park. This is a perfect getaway for families, friends, and adventure seekers!

Our property has lots of stairs between the driveway and the home. Its perched high upon a hillside overlooking the lake bed, so if you have trouble with stairs, please inquire before booking.

** Lake Travis water level update: the lake level fluctuates and is below normal capacity. Docks are "NOT" floating as of April 1st, 2026. Pictures of lakefront were from July, 2025. We expect some lake level restoration in next 6 weeks (wet season) and we will update photos after those April & May rainfalls. **

Lakefront home is also available for long term rental, 31+ rentals are provided at a 50% discounted rate.

We enjoyed the funky lake house. The kitchen was stocked for our needs. Good communication with the host when we needed a few things. Could use a more detailed cleaning, but the bedrooms and bathrooms were clean. Pulled out the hide-a-bed for use, but it wasn't clean, so we didn't use it. Nice view and good location for our trip.

The pictures were old and didn’t reflect on the current conditions. One kayak had a bee or rasp nest in it so we didn’t use it and the other one had tape on it and water in it. The stairs at the bottom were extremely steep and hard to navigate without a railing. The water machine in the house for hot and cold water had an empty water bottle on it, so we bought our own water. And the tub looked like it would have jets didn’t have any, it was a regular tub. The master bedroom was described as being on the main floor but it was upstairs with the rest of them. There was only two rolls of toilet paper for our 4 day stay with six people, so we bought toilet paper and paper towels because there was only one roll of paper towels too. We were disappointed but made the best of it.

Parking was extremely difficult. Upper driveway way inaccessible. Lower driveway required multiple stairways that didn’t have rails to access house so carrying in everything was exhausting. House was dirty and had roaches. Property appeared unkept. Left after first night because there was no water.

This property was great. The owners were very responsive with communication and early check in. The bedrooms were very clean and comfortable.The views were extraordinary, and it was a great place to walk around and explore.There are stores and restaurants nearby, which was very convenient.A few comments about the cleanliness: It would have been helpful to have more than one roll of toilet paper for 5 adults staying for Monday-Friday. The coffee maker had moldy coffee grounds. We did need to vacuum the downstairs area rugs and mop the tile floor.These were perhaps just oversights. We are happy to submit photos to the owners if they are interested.

Peaceful Hilltop Retreat with Stunning Views

Check-in was smooth and hassle-free. The property is located on a hilltop with beautiful views, and each room had excellent cold air conditioning, which was a lifesaver in the Texas heat.A couple of things to note: the gravel road and driveway can be a bit rough if you're driving a low-clearance vehicle—an SUV handles it much better. Also, if you park on the lower driveway, be prepared for a lot of stairs to reach the house. It’s manageable, but something to keep in mind if mobility is a concern.Overall, it’s a peaceful and well-equipped home, perfect for a relaxing getaway near Lake Travis.

Could have been cleaned better and sprayed for insect.

The bugs, spiders and scorpion etc. in the house was bad. Didn't like the driveway. To hard to get in and out of driveway. I loved the lighting around the house. The stairs was a little rocky. The lamp in the bedroom upstairs to the right of the bathroom. Next to the window would not stay on. Same bedroom the ceiling fan light the sting came off. It's on the dresser. I loved the atmosphere. Remember me of being at my own house. Thank you for letting me and my family stay at your resident.

JUST FANTASTIC!

This is a wonderful gem just outside of Austin. Corie and Bill are one of the best hosts that i have had a pleasure of dealing with. The description of the property was 100% to what you are getting and then some. It felt like being at a home away from home. Hope they continue to maintain the quality of their property and that other guests don't ruin it for the rest of us. Nice job guys! P.S. Top side parking is tricky and best to back into it. Service dirt road is easier, but more stairs.😅
