Great weekend get away
Came to the lake to get away from Austin. What a special gem! The lake is low but still visible from the property. The house is clean and the street is quiet, so this was so restful and relaxing. Looking forward to future stays.

Had a fun time
We had a good time was a nice clean place to stay. We saw plenty of wildlife from the back porch and stargazing was awesome. Even caught some fish even with the water low. Would stay again

Very Nice Cabin
The property is great for a small group or family. The beds are very comfortable and the kitchen has everything that you need for a lake trip. Unfortunately the lake is a bit low so the water around the dock is too low to get a boat to. So if you are visiting with a boat, you will have to lauch it and load it every time that you go out on the lake. That isn't a big deal as there is a ramp at the Thunderbird Lodge about a mile away. I still recommend this cabin, but I wish that I would have known that the water was too low for my boat.

Great Get a Way
We really enjoyed our stay. Everything was clean and inviting. Good communication with the owner. Grown kids enjoyed paddle boarding out back. The family enjoyed the corn whole game 😊 We went out for meals but there was everything anyone cooking would need to prepare meals. Close enough to go to Inks Lake for a hike.
Would definitely stay at this location again if we are gonna be in the area

Cosy cabin on the lake
It was a nice 4-day getaway for the family with kids. The bike park nearby was awesome, but make sure you have proper mountain bikes and protective gear. Otherwise kids enjoyed the kayaks and the nearby parks/hiking by the river.

Amazing cabin on Lake Buchanan
Loved our stay here! Chris and Anne were great hosts. We had everything we needed and loved sitting out on the back patio watching the geese and ducks in the lake. It was a quiet spot just outside of Burnet with a wonderful scenic view. Anne even has a piece of her art hanging in the living room I just loved! Would definitely stay again!

A Great Get-Away!
The yellow door log cabin is so cute! It is light and bright with a beautiful view of the lake and all the comforts of home. We kayaked, fished, and rested. We enjoyed every minute and the hosts, Chris and Ann were lovely and responsive. The area is so peaceful. We recommend touring the Longhorn Cavern and taking in some hikes. We will definitely be back!
