Great property
This location is super nice. The heated pool was lovely and all the beds were comfy. There is lots of open space in the living room too to hang out. The heated pool was great in winter and I feel like this property would be lots of fun in summer.

Lake Austin Gem
We had an incredible stay at the Lake Austin Gem! The location was perfect, just minutes away from Quinlan Park and the beautiful Lake Austin. One of the highlights of our trip was the complimentary golf cart, which made exploring the area with our family so much fun and convenient.
The home itself is stunning. It has been recently remodeled, and every detail is well-appointed, making our stay comfortable and luxurious. Each bedroom has its own en suite bathroom, which was a huge plus for our group, providing privacy and convenience.
The backyard was a true oasis with a private pool and jacuzzi. We spent many relaxing afternoons lounging by the pool and enjoying the serene surroundings. The outdoor space was beautifully maintained and offered plenty of seating for everyone.
Overall, the Lake Austin Gem exceeded our expectations. We would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable getaway. We can't wait to return!
