Perfect Place for Boating & Jet Skiing
This is a great house that has a lift for a wakeboard boat AND two jet skis. Perfect for our family. We have stayed here three years in a row now. The only thing missing - STILL MISSING - is some shades on the upstairs main room windows so that you can watch a movie in the heat of the day and avoid the glare / reflection.

This house is great ! We enjoyed our stay. We were there when the Llano river flooded July 24, but we received great notification from VRBO and the neighborhood folks that guided us to protect our boat and the dock area. I'm thankful the area got needed rain and it was interesting to watch the river rise. But...it would've been nice for it to have waited a few days !! :)

Better than a Marriot
This place was amazing! The accommodations were more than expected. It was so nice to relax by the fire, have a place to park the boat, and enjoy time with friends and family. We want to come back every year! It was well worth it!

Great House, Perfect Location
We had a group of Dads/Daughters for our annual trip and chose to stay close to home this year. We had a great time playing in the water and enjoying the house and huge yard with games and overall fun. The pictures definitely did the house justice and the bunk room for the girls was perfect. We also took advantage of the marina and restaurants close by for food and lake toys. Thanks again for the use of the house.
