We went to visit family for a sweet 16th in Austin Texas and found this beautiful Gem of a home right on the lake. I would say it is best to visit in the summer, the pool is not heated in the winter so you can't do much swimming, and the river is too cold, but overall we enjoyed our stay and had the fireplace indoor and outdoor, it is a magical place for a big family to enjoy, it sleeps 20 people, if I ever went back up there it would be to enjoy it with at least 2 families :)

Review of waterfront home on lake travis

To be honest, our entire family had a great time! We were a bit surprised when we got to house that the pool was on side of driveway and there was absolutely no water in front of house and hasn’t been for a really long time! We thot maybe there would be a bit of water. We were told by owner that there wasn’t water after we booked but listing said it depends on water leveled and we should have investigated further. Overall house was great except having 2 bathrooms on one side of the house which was a bit of a challenge since one was inside a room where 6 people were sleeping . Overall nice stay and had everything we needed but just would have liked a bit of water to use on lake Travis eventho it’s been dry for a while now.

Awesome place for a big group outing!

Came here for my brother's bachelor party. We had 17 guys and fit comfortably. Property is expansive and unique, with a great pool and huge backyard. Lake was dried up so that wasn't an option but otherwise this was a great place to stay outside of Austin. Host was excellent and went above and beyond in terms of communication and flexibility around check in / check out times. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a weekend away!

Great for bachelor parties

Had 15 guys stay for a bachelor party and it was a blast. There was no lake cause of the drought, but the pool was excellent and provided reprieve from the heat. The bed layout is perfect for large groups as everyone gets their own bed. Decently stocked kitchen and multiple grilling options available. Tom Grass was very clear and easy with his communication. Would highly recommend for bachelor parties!

We absolutely loved our stay. Our party of12 adults, 8 kids and 3 dogs stayed for 3 nights. Upon arrival the house was clean and welcoming. Fully stocked with everything we needed. The pool was amazing and very much enjoyed as the lake was dry in this particular area. All of us agreed that the property exceeded our expectations and we look forward to returning again. You will not be disappointed with this place. The owner is extremely courteous, prompt and a pleasure to deal with.

The Lake is Dried Up

Everything was amazing until the day before check in. The host called me to let me know the lake was dried up. This made a huge difference in the stay. We planned everything around the lake and was a let down. Host was great house was awesome tjr kake dried up, not so great. If I would have knew this is would have never stayed here. Huge let down. The advertisement needs to be changed to dried up lake.

Great pool, nice property

We enjoyed our stay. It's an older house and had some maintenance needs, but the owner was extremely quick to respond and get his handyman there. On the positive side, the house was very clean, well-supplied and spacious with tons of outside room and seating. The private saltwater pool was terrific. Our group of 14 used it constantly. It is well located with both sunny and and shaded areas most of the day, plenty of deck chairs, tables and umbrellas -- even pool toys and float mattresses. We are not boaters, so this didn't affect us much, but the listing should clarify that Lake Travis is so low now that the house is currently not "lakefront." The cove it's on was bone-dry. On the whole, a nice property if lake access is not important to you, with a very responsive owner.

Family Reunion at Lake Travis

Loved this place! Tom’s house was the perfect setting for our family reunion, with 20 people for a three-night stay. Tom is a generous host, stocking the house with more than the basic essentials, from spices to bathroom towels. The pool was terrific. We spent much of our time at the pool and grilling on the six-burner grill. Plenty of comfortable beds and lovely living/dining rooms for our big group. Tom made us feel at home. I highly recommend this property or renting anything from Tom.

Great Family Home with wonderful pool.

We had a wonderful time at this lovely home on the river. Tom the owner was very communicative and great to work with. Our family of 18 (9 adults and 9 kids ages 7-15yo) enjoyed lounging in the pool and playing boccee in the yard. There was plenty of room inside for naps and puzzles and cooking as a family. The extra living space in the room with the large bed and the loft twins was super useful as a kid cave for movies and board games. We highly recommend this property.

This is the House!

This house exceeded my expectations! We take big family vacations minimum is usually about 20 of us and this house was perfect! Our Fourth of July stay included 4 families. Age range 2 months to grand parents. There was plenty of space for our huge playpen for the infant/toddlers. The little kids(age 5-10) enjoyed the pool and playground. We had rain during our stay and they enjoyed playing indoors in the loft and top bunks and hide and seek was a hit. The teenagers (14-17) enjoyed the pool and the lake with the paddle boat and canoeing. They had so much to explore! (A whole week and I didn’t ever see them on their cellphones!) The openness of the kitchen dining and living room was perfect so we could all interact with each other. The view from living room is just beautiful. Morning coffee out in the many seating areas was my favorite. The location was perfect for our boat rental day and our zip lining tour day and the drives to and from these places were very pleasant because we all enjoyed the winding hilly roads. The owner Tom was great and extremely helpful before and during our stay. I would definitely pick this place again for another lake vacation.
