The house was perfect for us as we were a longer term stay as our house was being updated and remodeled. The house had everything we needed for our stay. The large fenced in backyard for our dog was a great asset to this house and we enjoyed walking her through the neighborhood and trails. The house is built so you can enjoy views of Lake Travis. Jill was a very responsive and thoughtful host!

This was hands-down one of the best experiences we’ve ever had! We were in town for a golf tournament, and the location couldn't have been more perfect. The house was incredibly close to the course, making our early morning tee times a breeze.From the moment we walked in, it was clear that the hosts go above and beyond. The goodie basket was such a thoughtful touch, packed with snacks that were perfect for refueling between rounds. The absolute highlight, however, was finding fresh apples in the fridge specifically to feed the deer in the yard. Combining that with the amazing views of the lake from the property made for the most relaxing evenings.The home was spotless, the scenery was breathtaking, and those extra personal touches made all the difference. If you're looking for a place that feels like a true getaway while staying close to the action, this is it. We can’t wait to come back!
