Lakeside Playground – 2 Homes for 14 w/ Pool Tables, Fire Pits, & More
Summary: Tucked away on the peaceful shores of Lake Dunlap, Lakeside Playground is more than just a vacation—it’s your front-row seat to lakefront bliss, just minutes from the vibrant charm of downtown New Braunfels. Whether you're tubing the Guadalupe, sipping wine in historic Gruene, or splashing through Schlitterbahn, you’ll be perfectly positioned for both adventure and relaxation. When it comes to exceptional views and access to a variety of entertainment, Lakeside Playground has you covered!
The Space: Comprised of 2 completely separate homes that can be booked individually, Lakefront Daze and Lakeview Country Villa, guests now have the flexibility and convenience to book both together, where the entire property becomes yours for the duration of your stay.
Your vacation begins the moment you step out into the backyard of Lakefront Daze. French doors swing open to reveal a breezy covered deck with cushioned seating and ceiling fans—ideal for lazy mornings or sunset cocktails. Just beyond, the patio features a sizzling grill, cozy firepit, and waterside picnic area. The private dock offers more than just postcard-worthy views: launch a kayak, dine with a lake breeze, or take the plunge down the thrilling slide into the cool waters of Lake Dunlap. Over at Lakeview Country Villa, the good times continue. A fully fenced backyard with another grill and patio space provides even more room to gather outdoors. And if the weather sends you inside? No problem—challenge the crew to a tournament in the game room, complete with a pool table, ping pong, foosball, darts, and a snack table for mid-game bites.
Lakeview Country Villa greets you with a warm, chic living room, cozy seating, and even a hidden reading nook off the kitchen for quiet escapes. The spacious eat-in kitchen is fully equipped and perfect for everything from pancake breakfasts to group dinners. With two dining tables indoors and a second-story deck outside, you’ll have plenty of inviting spaces to gather.
Meanwhile, Lakefront Daze brings in the light with its airy living room, oversized sectional, smart TV, and decorative fireplace. The galley kitchen is sleek and stylish, featuring quartz countertops and rich wood cabinetry, while a nearby coffee and cocktail bar keeps the refreshments flowing. The adjacent dining area comfortably seats eight—perfect for shared meals or game nights.
Whether you’re chasing sunshine on the lake, unwinding with friends, or simply looking for space for everyone to spread out and relax, Lakeside Playground delivers the best of both worlds: tranquility and convenience, recreation and rest, lakeside magic and downtown energy.

Our stay was wonderful. The houses had everything we needed. Everyone had their own room and the kitchen was well stocked. The lake outside was clean and refreshing. This is a good spot for just floating near the dock. Communication with host was easy via text. Neighborhood is quiet and safe. We enjoyed the pool table and karaoke machine as well. Would absolutely stay here again.
