We rent this home 3 to 4 times during the summer each year and always have a fabulous time there. The water is perfect on the upper Colorado, where this is located. It’s just a rocks throw from the dam at Inks Lake, so there’s very little boat traffic. The home is well equipped, and very comfortable. You’re not allowed to use the boat lift, but it does have a nice dock for docking your boat and a place for two jet skis, and that seems to work out fine for us. You’ll love the beautiful pecans and the plush green grass and gentle slope down to the water. Everything is there that you would need. There’s even a washer and dryer.

Pleasant

We enjoyed our stay. The lake house was super clean and provided necessities needed for cooking meals. We arrived early, but were not able to get early access, though the place was ready. For the amount we paid, we felt an earlier access would have given us more time to enjoy our time at the lake; check out was super early too. Felt like we really had only one full day to enjoy the place, considering what we paid. But we enjoyed our time together.

Anniversary Trip

Property was nice and clean. Amazing lake access with massive lawn. House was well-stocked with needed items for cooking. We enjoyed our stay. Suggestions - 4:00 check in seems later than typical on most properties (usually 2:00 or 3:00 check in); 10:00 check out seems earlier than typical on most properties (usually 11:00 or 12:00). The check out time doesn't allow for much time to enjoy the morning prior to check out. Seemed the AC worked well during the day but bedroom was hot at night. Not sure if the flow of the AC is sufficient to the back bedrooms. AC did not allow to turn down below 71.

Perfect location!

The house and property was amazing! This was our 3rd VRBO stay and the best so far. The location was perfect for us as we wanted to visit Mason, Fredericksburg and Austin. Enjoyed a little fishing from the dock one night. I hope we left the property as clean as when we arrived. Would definitely stay here again!

The property was pretty and the yard was beautiful. We enjoyed the dock to fish and watch the lake. The property was only upstairs and hard to go up and down all day but we managed and had fun.

Great home on a beautiful river

Adult family of 4 enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and beautiful view. Kitchen was well equipped for our meal preparations. Furniture was comfortable and. well positioned to give us ample room. We used the dock for our kayaks and swimming the ladder was especially helpful for entry/ exit. Great place, would stay again.

This property exceeded our expectations! The house was adorable and had everything we needed to enjoy our time there. It’s located on an incredible area of the river where we were able to float and kayak without too much boating traffic. Will 100% return!
