Lake Travis Waterfront with Resort Style Pool and Million Dollar Views.
A Premiere Lake Travis Vacation Rental Retreat located on six beautiful acres in the Texas Hill Country with endless views of the hill country, Lake Travis and sunsets!
WATER LEVELS: The water levels in the Colorado River are very low due to a drought and the city using more and more water to support rice farmers. Therefore, our riverbed is dry and our dock is not in the water. However, the views are still magnificent and breathtaking of the canyons and hills.
With water in the lake, there is a large boat dock for swimming, fishing or keeping a boat covered when not in use. A boat ramp is only a few short miles away at LCRA Gloster Bend Park. PLEASE NOTE: LAKE TRAVIS WATER LEVELS DO FLUCTUATE. If we are in a DROUGHT period, the water level will be low where the dock in not in the water. There may be little to no water in the river. If we are in a RAINY period, the water level will be enough where the dock is in the water. It is full at 681 feet elevation. For up to date LAKE LEVELS please visit https://hydromet.lcra.org/ or send a note to the owner especially if you plan to bring boats or other watercraft since this can can affect dock and ramp access. Any questions contact the owner in advance for any WATER LEVEL QUESTIONS!! Boat rentals are available at Lago Vista Boat Rentals at 512-826-5119.
Note: This property is a premier vacation rental, an event location (with owner agreement), and additional fees may be charged depending on the event type. We do not allow underage drinking or big parties to be thrown at our house. We have and will call the Travis County Sheriff's office.
We DO NOT allow party buses, charter buses, large trucks, or specific large vehicles onsite. Please contact the owner if you are NOT sure if your vehicle falls under this category.
If you have a guest size of 18+ living on the property, we will charge the VRBO standard of $100 per guest. This applies to guests staying overnight, not for visiting guests. If you have a guest size above 24, please inform the OWNER.
Escape to this three-cabin six acre property in the heart of Texas Hill Country, where you can relax by the waters of the resort-style infinity-edge pool overlooking Lake Travis. The pool can even be heated in cooler weather, scroll below for more details. There’s a large outdoor kitchen on the 1000 sq ft main cabin deck, a gas fire pit on the main deck, a large wood burning in-ground fire pit on the far point of the 1000 sq ft pool deck, and an outdoor 28 person dining table that can seat your whole family, making this property perfect for special events. The three cabins are all in close proximity to each other and each has its own large deck with incredible views. Lots of room to spread out! Sleeps up to 24 people comfortably.
LOCATION: 1 hour from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport 1 hour hour away from the center of downtown Austin
This retreat offers unmatched and unspoiled scenic beauty yet is still convenient for most major attractions. Relax without neighbors interfering with your fun! In fact, there are no neighbors! Play the $10,000 outdoor stereo system as loud as you want! The town of Lago Vista is a convenient five minute drive for grocery store or other necessities and the historic town of Marble Falls is a short 20 minute drive.
LAYOUT OF BEDROOMS: Cabin 1 has a room with a King bed and a second room with a King sized bed (previously was a queen bed).
Cabin 2 and 3 have the same layout. There are two bedrooms with a queen bunkbed in each room and a loft that has a King bed. The loft is only accessible by a ladder. It is a family style home where two people would sleep in one bed.
THINGS TO DO IN THE AREA: Balcones Canyonlands National Wildlife Refuge is minutes away and boasts hike and bike trails, scenery and bird watching. Wineries and golf are also minutes away. But for most people, lounging in the pool, sitting around the fire pits, soaking in the million dollar views, cooking outdoors, enjoying family and friends and listening to their favorite music softly echoing throughout the canyons are the main attraction. And with no neighbors and no city lights, a staggering stargazing experience while sitting around the fire pits in the evenings.
PARKING: Circular driveway and tons of parking, so spread out, relax and enjoy this truly unique vacation rental built from scratch to be a vacation paradise! Please note, when you rent, you get the entire property. Cabins are NOT rented separately! Built for fun one family or event at a time!
CABIN 3 UPDATE: Cabin 3 was a challenge! We started in September of 2019 and finished in early April 2020. It was carved out of solid rock from the side of a hill so we could get it situated for the perfect views. It is the same exact floor plan and layout as Cabin 2. Corona virus slowed us down on getting it fully furnished (but it is fully furnished now) but it has turned out to be the most popular cabin with the best views! Please note that Cabin 3 does not have a television. As of 2025, cabin 3 has WIFI! With Starlink, you will be able to access WIFI in all three cabins with no issues
HEATED POOL: The entire pool can be heated to bathwater-like temperatures in the Winter for an added fee and must be paid in advance. The fee is subject to change depending on propane costs. If conditions are really poor this is not a great experience so check with me prior to departure to see what the weather is doing. Central Texas has mostly mild Winters but does get an occasional cold snap. The owner reserves the right to strongly dissuade guests from heating the pool if weather conditions are poor or for any other reasons.
JACUZZI: We have a jacuzzi on the patio of the first cabin. The owner reserves the right to strongly dissuade guests from using the jacuzzi during harsh weather conditions or for any other reasons.
