Lake Travis - 4 Bed, 2 Bath, with spectacular views

Lake Travis waterfront home with the opportunity to fish, swim, or kayak, from your own backyard! This lovely home has a private boat dock, 3 kayaks, 4 spacious bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. Enjoy the serene and private home and lounge in one of the decks. Your family will enjoy playing games and/or sharing a meal overlooking the lake viewed from the large living room windows. End your day on a kayak and view spectacular sunsets!

**NOTE: Lake Travis is currently suffering from a serious drought and the docks are not afloat at this time. (see last several photos for recent lake level pictures). We have significantly reduced our nightly rate due to the absence of waterfront. No waterfront at this time.

Fully registered Short Term Rental (STR) #OL 2023 007114.

Home is located only 20 minutes away from downtown Austin. The waterfront is steps away from the property and surrounded by beautiful foliage. Nearby is a boat launch and public park. This is a perfect getaway for families, friends, and adventure seekers!

Our property has lots of stairs between the driveway and the home. Its perched high upon a hillside overlooking the lake bed, so if you have trouble with stairs, please inquire before booking.

** Lake Travis water level update: the lake level fluctuates and is very very low at the moment. The docks are not floating! Lake is low and no waterfront is present at property at this time. You will need to walk south of the property through a trail to reach the waterfront**

House is also available to rent for long term rental, (31+ days minimum) provided at a 50% discounted rate.

Hubby's birthday getaway
Can't speed or be too dark to find property. I was warned about the upper driveway it is a doosey. But overall we had a good time relaxing in the open air

Beautiful Birthday Celebration!
We celebrated our son’s 50th Birthday. He lives solo in Austin, but no room to celebrate. We live in Kentucky, so we needed to figure out where and how to celebrate with him and his friends. This was the perfect solution! The owner very generously allowed us to invite guests other than just the few of us who were staying overnight, and we had a perfect celebration! Everyone loved the setting, the view, the outdoor decks, and the lovely setting inside. Kids could run off their excess energy outside! Thank you so much to our hosts!

Affordable group accomodations
For the price of just one room at budget hotels, it was awesome to be able to house five adults in a private home with great views and room to relax. Could have handled one more guest. As the owner clearly emphasizes in the description, trying to park up top is not worth it for most vehicles.

Great Lake home minus the lake. The house was great but the weather and drought limited some of what we wanted to do. I would come again

Suggestions
The house is in good location. Owner did warn there's no water and very dry. But only 2 posted photos about it. Should have had more photos showing the dry and drought. The photos showing water were old shouldn't be on the properties listing page. Parking is tricky and rough driveway. Wish had photos showing it to expect rugged way in back of properties.Upper and lower driveway are steep like 45 degrees. A dolly would help if known in advance. House interior is nice & clean. Upstairs shower had some sewer smell like 5 minutes showering. Owner was friendly and talked thru with confused parking .Thank you. Other than that the stay was fine. Our family would have had more fun if there were water in the lake.
