It was okay
The view was wonderful and the porch was very nice under the trees. The house was clean and well appointed. We had all of the cookware we needed. A little updating to the bedding would help a lot. The reason I am giving it 3 stars is the pool area. We actually booked this place so our daughter could use the pool. The pool was very, very green - greener than the lake. The bottom of the pool was covered in sand/silt. The area around the pool was littered with bottles left under chairs and on tables. People were also bringing glass into the pool area. If you are booking for the pool/hot tub, I would suggest looking elsewhere. Otherwise, the house and porch were great!

Not Boat/Truck Friendly
We live in Oklahoma City and come to Lake Travis About 6 times a summer. We like to try new places to stay, and were excited to try this rental. Unfortunately, our entire experience was very disappointing.
Before booking the rental, we called and emailed the manager to ensure there would be somewhere to park our truck and trailer. We were initially told by her that we could park it at the marina. We called the marina and were told there was no parking. When I notified her that we were not permitted to park at the marina, she told us we could park our trailer behind their office. She did not tell us that their office was about 15 minutes away from the marina and condo. Our designated parking spot was also too small for our truck. We ended up having to pay $40/day to park our truck and trailer at the parking garage. If you bring a boat, you'll have to pay $30/day for a slip at the marina.
As far as the actual condo goes, we were also extremely disappointed. Our condo was right above the hot tub and pool, which is under construction so we had to deal with the noise from that. There were extension cords running across the entrance to our condo, the entrance light didn't work, our fire alarm would go off randomly during the day and night. The condo is extremely old and outdated, and was not extremely clean.
There are a lot of great rentals in Lake Travis and this is definitely not one of them. I felt like all the information we were given was misleading just to get us to book.
